Maputo City Super Tour - More History and Tastes, & Less Walking

Maputo Fort is an interesting story in itself and it also houses a mini museum with more historical gems.

Often cited as "the 3rd most beautiful train station in the world", CFM train station is magnificent and beautiful. It's other claim to fame is having featured in Leonardo Dicaprio's "Blood Diamond".

This magnificent statue of Mozambique's beloved freedom fighter and first President stands in the center of Maputo's Independence square with a number of architectural giants surrounding the square, including the Maputo Cathedral, and Municipal Building.

Famous because many believe it was designed by Gustav Eiffel. It was actually designed by the Belguim Joseph Danly using the "Danly System" - one of the oldest prefab construction methods. We appreciate this interesting project from outside - inside is a functioning office open Monday to Friday and closed Saturdays and Sundays.

FEIMA is a thriving artisan market with a wide range of Mozambique classic souvenirs.

On the outside Vila Algarve's façade is probably the most beautiful tiling in Mozambique - inside however has a much darker history - one of the favorite stops on this fascinating tour.

Often referred to as the "Lemon Squeezer".

No tour of Maputo would be complete with going across the Maputo-Katembe bridge. We take advantage of the laid back style on the Katembe side of the river where you will stop for lunch with the chance to eat some of the best seafood in Africa

Lunch is not included. This stop is great for taking photos of Maputo across the river. Clients can choose to lunch here IF THEY WISH.

Maputo has a number of sides, most of the walking tours are restricted to one small area of the old city. Our tour shows the burgeoning Costa do Sol where the beach is being embraced and skyscrapers are multiplying. On Saturdays there are always bridal parties using this picturesque location for memorable photos.
