set off on the quad and head along roads to

HORSE RIDING
Daily - Horse riding in the mountains of
the south of the island around 10am and gets
you back around 3pm. Travel up to the ranch,
a quick instruction speach and then mount up
for a 90 minute horseback ride around the
countryside (with some panoramic views over
the south coast). Back to the ranch with a
little free time as the BBQ lunch is
prepared. (They have a swimming pool so if
you're hot and dusty and took swimwear, you
can have a dip in the pool before lunch).
WILD WEST NIGHT
Fridays from 6pm, BBQ and a 90 minute
"wild west" extravaganza. A very
entertaining evening out to a western theme
park that offers a wild-west town with
saloon, bank, general store, sheriff´s
office, church, houses, indian reserve with
buffalo and more. Shows include a bank
hold-up, sudden shoot out, cattle stampede,
knife throwing indians, lasso tricks and
dancing saloon waitresses! There are
cowboys, indians and Mexicans. For an extra
charge you have the chance to ride a horse
here too. Origionally built as a movie set
for wild west films (Fist Full of Dollars),
this is now put to very good use.

The Small Continent... that is how this island is called because of its extremely varied landscapes with European, African and even American vegetation. The mountain range in the island´s center, of a height of about 2000 meters, is cut by some bizarre canyons.
We had a fabulous time on the Camino de Santiago! Everything worked as
it should have and all contact we had with anyone associated with
EATours was very friendly, very helpful and totally professional. You
can be sure that we will be passing the word. A real pleasure...
