4.00Tour was okay, but we were somewhat unhappy with how it ended. Tour included a lunch stop, which we were not interested in. Unfortunately, we were not given the option to skip. While others were eating, we agreed to wait until a specified time. The agreed to time was not followed. A better attempt could have been made to accommodate.
The best day!

5.00First of all, the city of Maputo exceeded any and all expectations - a most excellent day spending about five hours touring with Tours Maputo. The pace was great, the sites worthy and the best lunch spot on the sea. Our guides were professional, friendly and informative. We were arriving on a cruise ship with limited time - they worked with our schedule picking us up and delivering us to the port. The communication prior was v prompt and detailed. TYSM for a wonderful day in your amazing country! 😀🙌🏻💛‼️ PS they even arranged for the most beautiful blue sky day with perfect temps ;)
Great tour!

5.00In addition to visiting all the interesting sites in Maputo, Egas's tour included much more. Being a history and geopolitical buff I wanted additional information regarding the Mozambican Civil War. Not only did he give a detailed analysis of events leading up to the war, as a result of Portuguese colonization, but he explained the positive aftermath under the leadership of President Samora Machel.

5.00What a great tour! Our driver was Alfainho and our guide was Milton. Between them we had a wonderful overview of the city. We started at the beautiful train station and ended across the Katembe bridge for a delicious seafood lunch. The city is extremely diverse and we tweaked the itinerary a bit to see some of the Saturday weddings in the botanical garden and one at a church! We also saw all the top spots including the Lemon Squeezy Church. In direct contrast we had a drive through the Mafalala neighborhood which is ramshackle housing and dirt play areas. Quite sad to see all the children playing barefoot with only one ball for all of them and then just a few blocks later you have nice housing and shops. Everywhere we went people were smiling and we heard lots of music. Milton did a great job of explaining everything and making sure to keep everyone happy. He did his best to minimize walking for those with walkers and poc’s and assisting as needed!
See it all without the walking crowds
