★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 591 reviews · from $56Our pick

You’ll ride a 4x4 from Santa Maria to Sal’s Serra Negra, walk up rough, steep ground, and zip toward the sea from a 100-meter-high launch point. The two-hour outing includes safety gear, local snacks, soft drinks, music, and live Cape Verdean entertainment. Pickup and return transport are included, but the 130 kg weight limit matters.

“Great instructors, with a good sense of humor. Really worth the money. Great view, and felt safe during the trip”

“From pick up to drop off, it was a great experience. The tour guide operator were patient and kind to keep us update as to when the pick up would arrive (in good Cape Verdean fashion - pick up was 10 mins behind schedule - but that was ok, we were kept updated). When we arrived to the Zip Line cabin, we checked in - nice and smooth as we signed our life away (terms and conditions basically) - we were then taken in by the zip line team that would look after us during the activity.
