Maputo, Mozambique

Sunday, 31st January

Forecast, SUNNY

Our arrival was delayed by about 6 hours today as we had to deal with strong currents in the last few days.


The tour we were to take was due to depart at 9am, but was thankfully rescheduled with the tour operator. We docked and met our driver by 2.30 pm. The Botanical Gardens, Natural History Museum, many Statues, churches and significant buildings were included in our 3 hour tour of the city and surrounds. Maputo was under Portuguese rule until 40 years ago and the older  buildings show case the Portuguese architecture.
