Imagine stepping into a world where time slows down, where the rhythm of life is set by the beat of traditional drums and the gentle bleating of goats. Welcome to Caber Journey, an immersive experience that invites you to live a day in the life of a Cabrer in Boa Vista, Cape Verde. This isn’t just a tour—it’s a heartfelt journey into the soul of the island, where you’ll connect with its people, traditions, and the land in a way that will leave you forever changed.
From the moment you’re greeted with a rousing drum reception by Aritson and his warm welcoming family, you’ll feel like part of the community. This is your chance to roll up your sleeves and dive into the authentic, sustainable lifestyle of the Cabrers. Milk goats, feed animals, and learn the art of traditional farming practices like charcoal making.
Feel the pride of seeing the milk you collected transformed into award-winning cheese, and savor the fruits of your labor alongside homemade liqueur under the shade of a sprawling tree.
This is more than just an activity—it’s a celebration of culture, connection, and the simple joys of life. You’ll feast a traditional Cape Verdean dish lovingly prepared by Aritson’s mother, and toast with ponche, a local favorite that warms the heart.
Every moment is infused with laughter, learning, and the kind of hospitality that makes you feel like family.
