Mozambique

About Mozambique

  • Close Panel 

Mozambique stretches from Tanzanian East Africa right down the Indian Ocean to South Africa and is a perfect place for an out of the ordinary beach holiday or honeymoon. There are many lodges offering special deals for honeymoons in Mozambique. For the Africa addict, several game parks have recently opened back up such as Gorongosa National Park and Niassa Reserve both of which have plenty of wildlife coming back after years of poaching and civil unrest.

Mozambique is a huge country with vast potential for travellers interested in culture, wildlife and the coast. It is an increasingly popular choice for people wanting a luxury beach holiday or a remote specialist safari in an unusual destination, and happily, it seems to be becoming a focus for ecotourism and fair trade principles as regards tourism. We can tailor make any Mozambique holiday or honeymoon to your requirements, many of the lodges are small and locally run.

Tourism is fast developing here with several conservation & community projects working well with beach resorts and wildlife organisations. To the north there are several pristine wild areas inland bordering Malawi and Tanzania or on the coast near to Pemba or out on the Quirimbas Archipelago. Diving in Mozambique is fabulous all year round and both the north and the busier south of the country, around Vilanculous and Inhambane and the Bazzaruto Archipelago are popular for diving and snorkelling.

Pricing guidelines for Mozambique

  • Open Panel 

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £700 to £900 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). Return flights from Joburg to Pemba (in northern Mozambique) will add on roughly £400. Mozambique combines well with South Africa, Malawi and southern Tanzania.

For each accommodation on this website you will find an indication of the price. The bands are based on the price per person per night at peak season and are represented by the following values for this country:
