About Us

Who is behind Feel Cabo Verde?

A group of young Cape Verdeans who are hopelessly in love with Cape Verde and want to share the best of it with the world.

Our main goal is to strengthen community-based tourism in Cape Verde, as we believe this can help create "better places for people to live and better places for people to visit".

Our idea: Combining our knowledge as residents, our experience of traveling to all the islands (including the deserted island of Santa Luzia!), information gathered from members of the community, official data from the national authorities and expert knowledge from local tour guides, to create a vast and reliable source of information for anyone wishing to know more about Cape Verde, with a focus on travel-related information.

Mission

Helping anyone, anywhere to plan their trip to Cape Verde with peace of mind and enjoy the best the islands have to offer.

Vision

To be the most complete and reliable source of tourist information about Cape Verde.

We strive to fulfill our mission:

Providing the most complete and up-to-date information on Cape Verde and its travel-related services.
Through partnerships with reliable travel organizations to offer travelers the best value for money.
Showing that Cape Verde is much more than just a sun and beach destination.
Highlighting the role of local residents and different experiences in the archipelago.

Cape Verde is at the core of our fundamental values:

Commitment

We are committed to collaborating with communities, local guides and organizations to bring out the best the islands have to offer, using our experience as residents. We are also committed to becoming the most comprehensive online source of information about Cape Verde.

Authenticity

We strive to promote opportunities in which you can genuinely connect with the people and the place they are visiting. Cape Verdeans are known for their Morabeza (warmth and hospitality) and we want to make sure you truly feel it when you visit us!

Balance

Unsustainable tourism practices can cause more harm than good to local communities. To avoid this, we try to find a balance that can benefit the visitor without harming local tourism. To this end, we encourage travel practices and behaviours that minimize negative social, economic, cultural and environmental impacts and maximize positive ones. We subscribe to the maxim that tourism should create "better places for people to live and better places for people to visit", in that order! (Harold Goodwin)

Optimism

It all starts with attitude, and we're more likely to succeed if that attitude is positive. At FeelCV, optimism fuels our work and helps us to progress, looking to the future with enthusiasm and an open mind. Optimism is always a key item in our luggage!

Versatility

Cape Verde has something for every profile! We focus on bringing you the best and truest of our country so that you can tailor your trip to your personality and desires.

Experience

We draw on our vast experience and knowledge, gathered as residents and regular travelers in Cape Verde, to provide the best information and resources to help visitors enjoy the most exceptional experience on our islands.

Respect

By respecting the way of life, cultures and traditions that we encounter on our trips to the islands, we are able to live genuine and unforgettable experiences in Cape Verde. And because we also respect and value our readers, we want to guide them so that they too can respectfully enjoy the best of Cape Verde!

Development

Tourism is currently Cape Verde's main development tool. However, in order for it to bring social progress and benefit to the local population, communities must be actively involved and empowered in this industry. Community involvement and development are the main drivers of our work.

Excellence

We strive to be the most professional and responsive partners in our readers' journeys, using our knowledge, experience and network to provide the best guides, services and information about our islands.
