Explora el Mozambique real de la mano de su propia gente

Explorar por ti mismo es una aventura, pero muchas veces terminas haciendo preguntas a los locales u otros que ya han visitado la zona. ¿Por qué no preguntar directamente a tus guías personales? Robert, Lacin y David eligieron África como su hogar, y ellos mismos siguen explorando para poder mostrarte los tesoros escondidos que ningún lugareño compartiría con los turistas. Nuestros guías conocen prácticamente todas las respuestas a tus preguntas, ya sea sobre cultura, costumbres, comida, o actividades. Y ten por seguro que harán todo lo posible para satisfacer tus necesidades. Estás en las manos más seguras, transparentes y amigables, ¡garantizado!

Have a look here at the Matapa Making in our village and what you can expect from your Experience! Learn how to make the traditional mandioca leaf dish from our Joana and her daughter Maria and meet the kids of the village.

Cocina en el pueblo

During your stay you’ll enjoy the best of the cuisine, whether it is in the improvised and inspired restaurants or the actual local food at the market. In any case, you’ll be opposed to the traditional food and just for you to get a better understanding and a more intense sense for the country you’re traveling in, we have created a very unique opportunity to interact with the culture and dishes where the term “tourist” doesn’t exist. After exploring a few neighboring villages we then move onto the village of our friend Joana, and with the community, we start sharing responsibilities and preparing the local dish known as “matapa”!

Citytour (CULTURE)2.jpg

gira por inhambane

Being a country that is starting to blossom rapidly after a civil war that lasted for 15 years, and that never got the attention that it really should, Mozambique fascinates with its great history. This trip to the nearby city of Inhambane, capital of the province that bears the same name, brings us closer to one of the towns with the friendliest and most welcoming people we’ll come across

Together with our local and experienced guides will escort you to the most historical, fascinating and traditional sightings as well as picking up conversations with the local community to share their stories. We end the day with a beautiful sunset view in one of our trusted restaurants while cherishing a drink or the ever so fresh seafood.

OceanSafari(CULTURE)2.jpg

Safari en el océano

To allow everyone the opportunity to encounter whale sharks, mantas, dolphins, turtles and other fish, we offer the very beloved ocean safari boat trip, where you take all time to look out for these animals and when conditions allow, we snorkel and swim with them. Bucket-list worthy.

This activity is for diver, non diver and even for the few that cannot swim, as an entry into water is not necessarily required but snorkel equipment will be provided. As for the ocean safari itself, it is a 2 hour boat trip towards the south of the Tofo coastline, where we look for whale sharks, mantas and other rays, dolphins, turtles, etc and use the opportunity to gently and safely swim alongside with them. Generally, daily excursions are planned, however, it always depends on sea and weather conditions and we highly recommend skin and eye sun protection.

WhaleWatching(CULTURE)2.jpg

Snorkel con ballena yubarta

Our winter season, from July to November, is probably everyone's favourite time as humpback whales are an almost guaranteed sighting. To be able to see pec-slapping, breaching or lobtailing up close, we offer a 2 hour boat trip for anyone, whether diver, snorkeler or non-swimmer, as water entry is not guaranteed. Humpback whales are one of the most acrobatic species of whales. Time will still as you watch humpbacks breach the ocean’s surface for the first time, defying gravity as it rises from the depths arching towards the sky. A true moment you will never forget for years to come.

Snorkel de estuario

The nearby Inhambane estuary works as a nursery and offers spectacular opportunities to see the fascinating seahorses, starfish, frogfish, leaffish, pipefish, and a vast amount of other marine life that take refuge in these shallow waters. It is also an incredible area for bird watching! With its warm protected waters, the estuary gives us a cozy place to swim, explore and relax. Tide dependent, we drive up to the starting point in the estuary where we kit up with the basic snorkel equipment. After a walk during low tide, the adventure begins and it normally lasts around 1.5 hours, and once again, the tidal time will set our time to get back

viaje en kayak

The ravishing mangroves of the neighboring Inhambane estuary invites the adventurous and yet nature-lover, and what better way than exploring it on a kayak. Just a few minutes away by car from Tofo beach, we start the trip following scenic labyrinths of calm waterways, allowing us to inhale all the sounds of nature and exhale our potential stressful minds, leaving us with nothing but a feeling of completion. Every now and then we might be visited by a range of lovely birds, like flamingos, or other inhabitants of the mangroves such as crabs and other crustaceans. Paddle in your own phase through the tranquility and be fascinated by our nature.

Dhow(CULTURE)2.jpg

viaje en dhow local

Inhambane is home of one the largest freshwater estuaries in southern Africa, and the bay, which serves as a meeting point for the open sea, is often beautified by local sailing boats known as dhows. Drifting aboard one of these dhows is the best way to get up close and personal with the ancient boats that the Arabs once used to transport goods along the east coast of the African continent. With an experienced and trusted captain, we sail for a few hours into the calm crystal clear waters surrounded by white sand islets filled with Pansy shells. Idyllic landscape to take a swim or have a cocktail in one of the best places to see the African sunset.

Paseo en catamarán

The perfect conditions given by the nearby estuary allows you to take the afternoon off to be with your friends, family and other beloved. With a majestic 11m Catamaran, we navigate from White Sands beach towards the mangroves, stopping at Pansy island for lunch and snorkel time. You don’t need anything else than your beach utensils, especially sun protection in any kind. Our guide will provide you with a cooler box with refreshments and snacks, but you are welcome to add your own. After an incredible sunset view, we then set off to get you home.

Surfer(CULTURE).jpg

Surf

Tofo has long been known as a surfing hotspot and is frequented year round by surfing professionals and novice enthusiasts alike. The protected waters and dependable surf conditions of Tofo make it an excellent place for beginners to gain their sea legs or for pros to find that perfect wave. Packages are available for all levels and can include lessons for novice surfers or surfing photo and video options for those that can already carve for the camera.

SORBER

The lovely sister of traditional surfing has introduced itself as a well beloved sport along the coasts of the world. Unlike the traditional way of surfing, you don’t have to actually wait until a wave comes. You are free to paddle yourself through the water and catch a wave when it comes your way. Because of the seemingly ease of the sport it allows many first-time participants to try out. It comes with a great bonus that you don’t necessarily need an instructor and can just enjoy the tranquility of a sunrise or sunset. Tofo Beach or Vilanculos have some of the most beautiful and protected bays that allow everyone to enjoy a calm paddle without any worries. So let’s SUP!
