Description
Escape the city and venture into one of Mozambique’s most remarkable conservation success stories. Maputo National Park (Parque Nacional de Maputo) offers a breathtaking blend of rolling grasslands, coastal forests, swampy wetlands, and pristine shorelines. Your journey begins with a morning pickup in Maputo. Board a comfortable, closed 4x4 vehicle equipped to handle the park’s sandy tracks while keeping you cool and protected from the elements. As you enter the park, your professional guide will navigate the best tracks to locate resident wildlife, including African elephants, herds of zebras, giraffes, wildebeests, and vibrant birdlife. At midday, head toward the coast for a break at Ponta Membene Lodge. You can choose to purchase a delicious meal at the lodge's restaurant overlooking the ocean, relax on the beach, or enjoy your own packed lunch in the surroundings. After refueling, set out for an afternoon game drive before relaxing on the comfortable drive back to your hotel in Maputo.Includes
