Maputo City Tour

Destino
Maputo, Mozambique

Detalles del programa

Maputo, the Mozambican capital city, is a result of several cultural, political and social changes through time. With its subtropical climate, beautiful sheltered bay and blend of Portuguese architecture, African spontaneity and Indo/Portuguese/African cuisine, Maputo has retained much of its colonial mystique.

Modeled on Portuguese harbor cities such as Lisbon and Porto, Maputo’s wide avenidas (avenues) are lined with pavements inlaid with black-and-white stone mosaics. Laid out in a grid pattern in 1847, the ‘long’ avenues extend at right angles to Avenida da Marginal while the ‘short’ avenues traverse Maputo Hill away from the bay. Here you can feel the fusion of wildlife culture and coast.

The guide will pick up at 9.00 am (morning tour) or 02.00 pm (afternoon tour) to visit the most iconic places of Maputo: The Railway Station, The Central Market, FEIMA Art Craft Market, The Fortress, The Museum of Natural History and the Iron House.

After the visit, the guide will drop you off at your hotel at 12.00 am (morning tour) or 05.00 pm (afternoon tour).



NOTE: The Museums are closed in Mondays - alternative locations will be added to the tour has replacement.
