Cruises to Sao Tome

Africa's second smallest nation, São Tomé and Príncipe is home to stunning natural beauty. Príncipe is an almost entirely untouched island close to the equator with a population of less than 10,000. Hikers will love trekking through untouched jungle on the way to pristine beaches. If you're looking for a less adventurous way to see the sights, you can get some of the best views from a boat trip around the island. The islands are also home to an incredible array of wildlife you can't see anywhere else. When you're ready to relax after a day of exploring, try some of the local chocolate or a fresh cup of coffee.
