Due South

Maputo is the biggest city in Mozambique and is also home to the nation's busiest and most important harbor. Located right at the very south of the continent, Maputo is just 90KM away from the border with South Africa.

What immediately jumps out at the first-time visitor is the way in which the city as a whole feels almost entirely different to most other towns and cities across both the nation and the continent as a whole. Everything seems to have been concentrated into the urban areas, where the roads are busy, sidewalks packed and open areas generally populated with people happily getting on with their lives. There is very little visible poverty, no real problem with beggars, an apparently high standard of health and extensive market stalls and vendors doing business.




In addition, there is a distinct lack of the heavy police and military presence that can make some similar towns feel entirely foreboding and a little disturbing.
For those looking to get a taste of the real urban side to Mozambique, there really is no better place to do this than Maputo.

Undiscovered Redefined

One of the biggest draws for the more adventurous tourist is the way in which most will spend much of their time feeling as though they really are the only tourist in the city. The streets are far from mobbed by travelers, while it is unusual to find an abundance of offices and stores specifically in place to cater for international visitors. The architecture ranges from colonial building to massive new tower blocks and everything in-between, while stunning gardens are dotted around every corner of the city.

Dining and accommodation options are available to cover every possible need, ranging from shabby guest-rooms right up to multi-star luxury hotels and all else besides. Street food is of course the way to go for those looking to do as the locals do, but there are also hundreds of restaurants and cafes around serving local specialties.
