Maputo Hotels - Reviews and Rates

I spent last week in Maputo, the capital of Mozambique. I went with our Africa Regional Director, and we were doing a 'new country assessment trip' - basically trying to figure out if PCI should expand our programming there. I have never really done any new business development, so it was a really interesting trip for me, as we went around to va...

There were many more people and cars on the streets today. It seems that things do slow down in Maputo for Christmas, the bustle had returned. We had to sort out our plane tickets to Northern Mozambique - we'd previously reserved tickets online but you can't pay online and our huge delays arriving in Mozambique meant that we lost our reservation...

We arrived today in Maputo, which is the capital of Mozambique. The sights, sounds and smells of the city came as quite a shock to us after being in relatively developed South Africa - this is truly a nation struggling to rebuild and develop, and we suspect that the people we meet with here will have a completely different perspective from what ...

Three days after leaving New York I arrived in Maputo, Mozambique. I was ecstatic to be here and more happy then ever to step out of the Airport and into the warm African sun. My layover in Joburg taught me one thing: Southern Africa in the winter can be really REALLY cold. I was in a t-shirt and when walking on the tarmac to board my flight I c...

Happy New Year 2008 to all our loyal readers from Maputo! We can see that so far we have already had over 1000 visitors to our blog - thank you to all our many visitors. Well after the trouble we had getting there, our bus arrived in Maputo in the late afternoon, and it was very, very, hot, 31 degrees and humid too, so we were glad we had booked...

Van 'Spice of Life' Backpackers is het 1.5 km lopen naar de border. En dat besluit ik dan ook om te doen. Onderweg word ik opgemerkt door Christopher. Een zogenaamde politieman, traffic controle want ik zie hem vaker bij de 'SoL' eten en slapen met zijn vrouw dan langs de weg aan het werk. Maar ach. Ook Cameron de eigenaar komt net aangereden e...

All in all we spent a little over 2 weeks in Mozambique. Transportation is very difficult and slow. Buses leave very early in the morning, are extremely crowded, hot, old and uncomfortable, and expensive compared to other countries that are not doing to well. Roads in central and especially in northern Mozambique are terrible, with many potholes...

We were dropped of at Fatima's backpackers just after noon, dropped of our bags and set out exploring. The city brings to mind two quick trivia questions: 1) Did Ho Chi Minh and Vladimir Lenin ever meet? 2) If/when, what was the result? I can quickly answer the second one: A cool bar with an outdoor patio, a hairdresser salon, a variety store an...

Hey Everyone! Wow, there is soooooooo much to write that I am not even sure where to start. I don't have too long. It is 50,000 meticais for half an hour. That's a lot. I wrote a lot of letters the last two weeks, but I went to the PO today and it is 33,000 meticais for ONE letter. Now, that may not seem like a lot, but I only get paid 120,000 m...

Iniciamos uma aventura no interior da floresta africana. Decidimos ir a um safari.
