Maputo Special Reserve Tour

At 6:00 am we'll leave the Mozambican capital when we set off from 417 Kwame Nkrumah Avenue.

Onboard a 4x4 we'll drive through Catembe and other towns in the south of Mozambique. After a two-hour drive, we'll arrive at Puerta Futi, the main entrance to the Maputo Special Reserve (entrance fee: 15 US dollars per person, not included).

Upon entering this protected area (77,400 hectares), our safari will start. We will observe various native African animals: elephants, giraffes, antelopes, zebras, and impalas, among others. Additionally, a multitude of birds inhabit this ecosystem, which we will see during the tour.

The first part of the tour concludes with a light lunch. We'll enjoy a picnic next to Lake Munde, observing different types of birds.

After lunch, our safari proceeds to Lake Xinguti. We will briefly stop at its shores for coffee and to view hippos and wading birds.

We will return to Maputo by around 2:30 pm, and to enhance the return journey, we will have a quiz on African wildlife onboard the truck.
