  • We went to the NP for a day's birding with a guide from Sao Tome company Navetur (he was Laudino - excellent!). You need some stamina to spend a day here - it's hard walking,especially in the heat...

  • The jungle is extremely beautiful. However, we just wanted to warn everyone, that climbing the highest mountain in the park, Pico de São Tomé, is extremely DANGEROUS UNDER WET CONDITIONS. The hike is very long and strenuous, and you have to keep a steady pace to make it in 2 days. It was praised as the ultimate jungle experience. But If you just want to watch animals and discover plants in the jungle, you definitely want to check for a different tour.
  • The park itself is immense and somewhat at the center of the island. It has a botanical garden with a lot of plants species and more. The staff and guards are really friendly and nice. They really know their thing. The road to the park is really interesting and a challenge in itself, going through the coffee farms and small villages; the view itself is amazing and it is a must see for all visitors especially the flora of the island has its own uniqueness.
