Maputo Travel Blogs

This is Monday morning, about 5:30 as I write. I will be leaving Maputo in about 3 hours and traveling to the western part of Mozambique near the town of Chicualacuala and north of the Limpopo Reserve. It is also close to the Zimbabwe and South African borders. I’m expecting to be there about a w…

Pemba is a paradise on earth along the northern coast of Mozambique where you can see the waters in blue and green. The snaps of Pemba were taken from the aircraft Jetstreamer J29 I was travelling to Tanzania.

South-Africa, Mozambique, Malawi & Zambia

Where we went in 2006 (and where we are going)

Before using Travbuddy, I visited locations around the world, this is a link to those.

The next morning we were eager to get on the road, but felt we had to hit an ATM first to take out enough cash for our stay in the country – rural Mozambique is not exactly renowned for ubiquitous bank machines… As was to be expected, no ATMs were working. We drove around until noon until we fi…

5 months of exploration in South and East Africa

Na een vlotte grensovergang, waar we door een mannetje bijna letterlijk aan het handje langs de diverse ambtenaren worden geleidt, komen we aan het begin van de middag aan in Maputo, hoofdstad van Mozambique. Al snel blijkt dat alle budget opties geen optie zijn. Het alternatief wordt voor de veran…

Mozambique Currency - 3 meticais = 1 South African RandA long overnight bus of 10 hours brought me to Maputo, the capital of Mozambique. Fatima's pets in the hostel  and this bugger snores...      Prior to arrival, Aunt Ann and Brendon's friend has warned me that Moz…
