Itinerary

Mozambique’s capital city Maputo has an intriguing mix of Portuguese colonial and Soviet-style buildings on broad boulevards lined with jacaranda and palm trees. Architectural standouts include the 20th-century domed railway station, painted in green and white. Designed by Pancho Guedes, the Smiling Lion is a distinctive post-modernist apartment block. The historic district of Baixa has a vibrant street scene of cafes, live music and markets.

An uninhabited isle with a 6-km beach, Portuguese Island in Mozambique is surrounded by sand, blue ocean and green vegetation. Nestled between the African coast and the Indian Ocean, neighbouring Inhaca Island offers a Marine Museum and an old lighthouse, and the local tipple, 'Tipo Tinto' rum, distilled from sugar cane, is available in shops, restaurants and beach bars, offering a taste of tropical delight.

A busy port town with a deep natural harbour, Richards Bay is surrounded by extensive wetlands sheltering diverse birdlife. A hotspot on the Zululand Birding Route, it's a haven for rare species like cuckoo hawks and pygmy geese. The town's large lagoon becomes a cooling spot for hippos and crocodiles. Meanwhile, Alkantstrand Beach offers laid-back charm with long stretches of golden sand and gentle waves.
