MOZAMBIQUE

SEE SUGGESTED JOURNEYS

Mozambique has quickly become the diamond-in-the-rough destination for luxury beach and island holidays. Many of its hidden gems border the Indian Ocean, in areas like Ponta Mamoli, Machangulo Peninsula, and the island of Benguerra. These areas have also been made easy to access through major international airports in Vilankulos and Maputo. Previously you would have had to take a helicopter charter, however now you can catch a short water or road transfer. This makes Mozambique a good-value destination.

Many of our travellers like to couple their stay in Mozambique with a safari experience in the lower part of the Kruger National Park. It’s as simple as flying to either Vilankulos or Maputo with a short charter flight or road transfer. This is where our extensive expertise of the area comes into effect, and we’ll be able to get you to your beach holiday without too much effort.

MAPUTO

Located in the south, within 1 hour’s drive of the South African border, lies the capital of this sunny country, and Mozambique’s major port. It offers historic Portuguese colonial architecture, and a number of resorts which are situated close to the city limits. It is also known for its markets and culinary delights. The nearby Inhaca Island is a 1 hour ferry ride from the main port offering the most affordable of the tropical island options in this country.

BAZARUTO ARCHIPELAGO
This collection of 5 idyllic islands midway up the Indian Ocean coastline, with direct flights into Vilanculos, is quite easily the most exclusive, unique and well-known area of Mozambique.

It is a beloved location for honeymooners, offering romantic resorts, which rival, if not exceed the options available in the Seychelles and Mauritius. The resorts tend to be a lot smaller and more personalised than the massive resorts in Mauritius, and are therefore a lot more popular with the tourist seeking personalised service and privacy.
BENGUERRA

This island is protected as a conservation area, and is definitely the jewel of the region. Famed as the “Pearl of the Indian Ocean” this natural paradise is a delight with its coral reefs and white sandy beaches. The selection of accommodation choices were carefully curated to blend into the natural environment, retaining a charming, natural ambience.

PEMBA

This northern town offers access to remote islands of northern Mozambique bordering Tanzania. There is a small collection of islands some of them offering private island holidays, namely one resort on the entire island. Names such as Quilalea and Medjumbe offer exclusive experiences for those wanting a tropical island experience second to none.

The countries wild inland regions are gaining in popularity and places like Niassa lake, bordering Tanzania and Malawi, are celebrated as an untouched piece of African wilderness, while a wildlife safari can be enjoyed at Gorongosa National Park. Overall Mozambique is an unspoit country and an excellent choice both as sole destination or combined with a safari excursion in the Kruger National Park.
