It is a very exiting tour - It was a very exiting tour. We visited Equator on a small island. We were the only 4 passengers in our cruise ship come to this place! Many thanks to our driver Jeremias Monteiro. The road is very rough and we had very tight schedule, but he managed to let us came back on time. We had a great time!

Super recommend! - I made the south tour of the island of São Tomé with Luis Miguel during a visit in February 2025. She was traveling alone, but Louis was extremely caring and respectful. The tour on the Ilhéu das Rolas is really worth it! He adapted the tour based on what I wanted to see and according to my availability of time, showing itself quite flexible to serve the customers. The boat transport and lunch on the island were paid apart, but everything very well organized. If you are on the island looking for an experienced guide, I recommend the tour with him!

Strongly recommend Luis Miguel's services - Strongly recommend Luis Miguel. He took us a half-day City tour and then on two of his one day tours, one down south down the east coast and the other to the centre of the island. His selection of where to go was very good and what he told us about the island and its history was always interesting. He took us to two good places for lunch - excellent food. His 4X4 was very comfortable, which helped a lot on some of the roads and tracks!

Wonderful trip around SaoTome Island - Luis was a great guide and really looked after us , we did think about hiring a car but we would never have found the wonderful places that Luis took us , some them off road Lunches were in interesting restaurants with tasting menus and some in the rain forest The beaches and water falls were idyllic Thanks Luis once again for the three trips , Also excellent safe driving and excellent English spoken We would love to come back to your beautiful island

Great safe experience! - We spent 1 day with J P and 3 days with Luis Miguel. Great communication via WhatsApp during planning. We did north, middle, south and illheus das rollas. We had 4 great days. Touring, lovely swimming in beaches and waterfall. Great lunches. Driving was safe and good info provided. We even sas a turtle on the way to illheus das rollas! Best careful of mozzies in botanical gardens though! Highly recommend Luis Miguel for tours.

Great guide in São Tomé - Did the southern part of São Tomé with tour guide Luis Miguel Costa and had a great time. Interesting 2 hour drive each way with several stops. The highlight was the boat ride to the island and seeing the equator. I decided not to have lunch and got back to the hotel an hour earlier. The trip was about 7 hours long. Luis spoke great English and was a very knowledgeable, pleasant and attentive person. I would recommend him highly as a guide.

Great Tour to the North and South parts of Sao Tome - Luis Miguel was a great guide. I did a tour to the north of the island and the south. He was very prepared and organised and the tour went according to plan. I appreciate that he took me to all of the great sites and was in no rush when I wanted to enjoy a certain place. Thank you for a wonderful trip to Sao Tome. Your wonderful tour made my trip amazing.

Basic but nice - Had to find our contact out of a chaos of intimidating drivers. Once found we had a very nice and very safe-driving guide, Mateus. It's a little pricey, but others on our cruise paid more using a taxi. There are not many options while on a cruise but this was way better than using the cruise to book our day trip.
