Discover Boa Vista
Through Local Eyes

Small group 4x4 island tours and
reliable airport transfers. Guided by Olavo since 2009.

Where the Sahara meets the Atlantic. White sand beaches that stretch for miles. Sand dunes that glow gold at sunset. Sea turtles that return every year to nest on our shores.

Most visitors see the resort. We show you the island.

What We Offer

Airport Transfers

Stress-free pickup and drop-off. We track every flight. Air-conditioned comfort.

Why Olavo Tours?

15+ Years Local Experience

Small Groups, Real Attention

Maximum 6 guests per tour. No bus crowds. You can actually stop when you want a photo.

Flexible & Personal

Want to stay longer at Santa Monica? Skip a stop for more beach time? This is your day, not a schedule.

Families Welcome

Kids love our tours. I make it fun for them too. Check the photos - the little ones always have a great time.
