Mozambique: Bush, Beach and the Big City

This incredible itinerary is a superb introduction to Mozambique, combining as it does wildlife and nature, city life and lazy days on white sand beaches. Your trip begins in one of Africa’s best eco-tourism destinations. Gongorosa National Park, while popular with discerning nature and wildlife aficionados, is yet to be rediscovered by most travellers.

Leaving with memories for a lifetime,  get ready for a change of pace as you spend two nights in the capital of Mozambique, the historic city of Maputo. Learn about life on a city tour with an expert guide, shop for souvenirs and dine on delicious seafood. The final part of your tour takes you to the coastal paradise of Vilanculos for a laid-back few days relaxing on pristine beaches, visiting the nearby islands in a traditional dhow, snorkelling or just being busy doing nothing.
