Azura Benguerra Bazaruto Mozambique4

Places of interest in Mozambique

Mozambique is a land of staggering natural beauty and intrigue. Its 2,500 km of unspoilt and picture-perfect coastline make it a wildly exotic place to visit. For the beach-lover, there can be no better place to soak up the sea and sun without the crowds. For those interested in history and culture, Mozambique is brimming with the vestiges of Portuguese culture intermingled with a flamboyant and colourful African culture – an African Algarve without the tourists! For the adventure lover, snorkelling, diving and sailing are superb with Mozambique boasting some of the finest marine wildlife in the world. Mozambique is around six times the size of England and has a relatively small population of around 28 million, most of whom inhabit the mainland in and around the buzzy capital, Maputo. Mozambique’s hotspots lie in and around the south and far north of the country, predominantly around the Bazaruto and Quirimbas Archipelagos. Mozambique is a magical and fascinating country which works perfectly in combination with a safari in Botswana, Zambia or South Africa for the ultimate beach-safari holiday.

Client Testimonials

I barely know where to begin... though a sincere 'thank you' would be the best. You have organised this trip perfectly. May was an inspiring and delightful companion in Myanmar – thoroughly professional and friendly at the same time. My accommodation throughout has been superb, especially The Governor's Residence and The Mandarin Oriental. The view from the cottage at Inle Lake was beautiful and I loved every moment of being there. And here I am now on the last leg of this extended holiday at my favourite place. I could stay here for ever, the peace, silence and surroundings all amazing, plus the people and the whole aura of Vana. Thank you for much, and I look forward to speaking to you on my return.

Ampersand’s preparation, attention to detail and interaction before and during our trip show exactly why good travel agents have a role in today’s internet booking age. They were a delight to deal with!
