What transportation options are available?
In Maputo, you can choose from various transportation options including taxis, ride-sharing services, and public buses. Taxis are readily available and can be hailed on the street or booked via apps. I strongly recommend downloading the Yango App which is Mozambique’s version of Uber. You get to see the prices upfront so no going back and forth and you can pay for your ride in local currency.
How do I get from the airport to the hotel?
You can catch a taxi or pre-arrange pickup via the ride-share app. Rates should not be more than 200MZN ($3.15) if booked through ride share app. The hotel also offers transportation, but you have to let them know ahead of time. There is a fee associated with the hotel pick up (approx. $30).
How will I get to the scheduled activities
I will arrange transportation to our trips involving island hopping and South Beach.
Is it safe to use taxis in Maputo?
Using registered taxis in Maputo is generally safe, especially if you book through reputable apps. Always confirm the driver’s details and avoid sharing personal information during your ride.
