Day visit to Maputo Elephant park - Excellent day out if you like safari’s. Picked up on time from the hotel . The guides name was Calisto. Good driver and lots of information. The vegetation is so different from Kruger. Coastal forests open grassland and areas with reeds and water. Lovely to see Reedbuck on four occasions as well as numerous red duiker. We spotted more wildebeest than impala! Amazing. Then the ocean. Unspoilt and stunning. Very enjoyable day out thanks to Calisto .

Visit Maputo National Park— you won’t be disappointed! - I had a wonderful day exploring Maputo National Park with Maputo Tour Guides! My guide, Edilson, was very communicative about setting up the trip in advance and he was extremely knowledgeable about the park: both its history and where to find the wide variety of animals within. He exhibited a high degree of knowledge about the different animals and had great spotting skills! And was a very nice person to spend the day with— I learned a lot from him about Mozambique and its culture. We saw a whole family of giraffes, elephant mom and baby, countless antelope species, hippos, waterhog (including babies), and crocodiles. A wonderful safari day— highly recommended!!

Great - Awesome tour, Edison was great. The national park was cool, saw a lot of giraffes and zebras, one hippo, no luck for elephants. I requested that we go for lunch at millibangalala resort and they were very willing to accommodate and very responsive to communicate with before the trip . I’d definitely recommend asking for this stop as the resort and beach are really beautiful. The tour also provides a nice picnic lunch. Overall a great experience.
