Vamos Fugir is a Portuguese travel agency (RNAVT 4155) specialised in trips to São Tomé and Príncipe. We organise group trips, private tours, honeymoons and fly & drive on both islands, with flights from Lisbon and our own team on the ground: official guide Jota Pereira, captain Giló Bonfim and a Vamos Fugir coordinator from the first day to the last. We know the plantations, the beaches and the people by name — that is why our trips move at the right pace: leve-leve.

Two islands in the Gulf of Guinea, rainforest down to the sea and old cocoa plantations. These are the places our trips include:

Cross by boat and stand with one foot in each hemisphere.

Agostinho Neto, Monte Café and chef João Carlos Silva's lunch at Roça São João dos Angolares.

Praia Piscina, Praia Jalé, Lagoa Azul and the beaches of the south.

The most photographed rock spire in the country.

UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Praia Banana and Roça Sundy, where Einstein's theory was confirmed in 1919.

Raw nature, half an hour from town.
São Tomé and Príncipe is warm all year. The gravana (June to September) is the dry, cooler season, ideal for hiking; the short gravana (December and January) is good for the beach and for Christmas.
Best time to visitWe choose places with character: restored plantations, eco-lodges by the sea and hotels in town.
