Full Itinerary
Day 1 – Arrive Pemba, overnight Pemba Beach Hotel and Spa:
Your tour begins in Pemba, a small port city in North-East Mozambique. On arrival at the airport you will be collected and transferred to your accommodation for the night, Pemba Beach Hotel and Spa. The rest of the day is free to relax – enjoy the hotel pool, sample the local seafood, or take a walk down to the marina.
Days 2-4 – Niassa Reserve, overnight Lugenda Wilderness Camp:
After an early start, transfer from your hotel to the airport for your flight (90 minutes) to Lugenda, Niassa. Lugenda is a private concession of the Greater Niassa Reserve, Mozambique’s top safari attraction. You spend 3 nights at Lugenda Wilderness Camp, a small, intimate safari camp comprising 8 en-suite chalets overlooking the Lugenda River.
Niassa Reserve, at 40,000 square km, is one of Africa’s largest wilderness reserves (twice the size of Kruger), yet also one of its least visited. It is not as rich in game as the more famous safari parks of East and South Africa, but its varied terrain, vast scale, and limited visitor numbers make it a wonderful place for those looking for an off-the-beaten track safari. Game-viewing at Niassa generally takes the form of game drives in open vehicles, but there are also options for canoe safaris (primarily at the start of the season between May and August, when the waters are high) and walking safaris. Mobile camping is also an option, and can be built into your itinerary in place of, or in addition to, one of the nights at Lugenda Camp.
Your booking at Lugenda is inclusive of all meals and local drinks and spirits.
Days 5-7 – Medjumbe Private Island, Quirimbas Archipelago:
After breakfast, transfer to the airstrip for your 90 minute light to Medjumbe Private Island, Quirimbas Archipelago. Here you spend three nights in a private beach chalet. Medjumbe, at 1km by 500m, is one of the smallest islands in the Quirimbas Archipelago, yet also one of its most beautiful. The waters are warm and welcoming, and allow for a number of water activities: diving, snorkelling, deep-sea fishing, as well as water sports.
Your booking at Medjumbe is inclusive of all meals and local drinks and spirits.

Mozambique beckons with its coastline and swaying palms, its traditions, its cultures, its vibe and –most of all – its opportunities for adventure. This enigmatic southeast African country is well off most travelers’ maps, but it has much to offer those who venture here: long, dune-fringed beaches, turquoise waters abounding in shoals of colourful fish, well-preserved corals, remote archipelagos in the north, pounding surf in the south and graceful dhows with billowing sails. Most safaris to Mozambique incorporate a bush experience, visiting the untamed Transfrontier Peace Park and/or the Maputo Elephant Reserve. You also get to experience Mozambique’s rich culture and colonial past in the towns and cities visited during safaris, as well as the exotic cuisine and abundant fresh seafood of this beautiful country.
Add to this colonial-style architecture, pulsating nightlife, an endlessly fascinating cultural mix and vast tracks of bush populated with elephants, lions and birds galore. Discovering these attractions is not always easy, but it is unfailingly rewarding. Bring along some patience, a tolerance for long bus rides and a sense of adventure, and jump in for the journey of a lifetime.
Mozambique stretches for 1,535 mi (2,470 km) along Africa’s southeast coast. Tanzania is to the north; Malawi, Zambia, and Zimbabwe to the west; and South Africa and Swaziland to the south. The country is generally a low-lying plateau broken up by 25 sizable rivers that flow into the Indian Ocean. The largest is the Zambezi, which provides access to central Africa
