    Luxury Mozambique Family Tours made for you

    A bespoke family trip to Mozambique

    Luxury Mozambique family tours

    Mozambique offers tropical beauty and tranquility, without the crowds. This Indian Ocean nation is known as a less-visited beach destinations, giving families a real sense of exploration and exclusivity.

    The southern coastline, which features a handful of luxury lodges, is extraordinary. Just off Mozambique’s shores, the Bazaruto archipelago boasts some of the world’s most pristine marine environments, with crystal-clear waters, vast coral reefs, diving and snorkelling. The archipelago’s incredible biodiversity includes five species of sea turtles, over 2,000 species of fish and the rare dugong, or sea cow. The annual humpback whale migration is also a spectacular sight, and our travel designers can arrange for you to go whale watching in a traditional wooden dhow.

    Our bespoke family holidays in Mozambique will typically include time spent on the white sand beaches of the remote coral-fringed Quirimbas archipelago. And, national parks like Gorongosa (known as the “Serengeti of the south”), for unforgettable safaris to spot lions, leopards, painted wolves and zebras.

    What sets Mozambique apart is its unhurried, laid-back atmosphere and its rich culture. Centuries of Portuguese, Arab and African influences are evident in architecture, cuisine and music. You’ll hear marrabenta played everywhere – a mix of traditional African rhythms and Portuguese folk music – and the country’s peri-peri prawns alone are worth the journey.

    Speak with a dedicated travel designer who will listen to your interests and passions, add their own first-hand insights and curate the perfect tailor-made luxury Mozambique family tour.

    When to visit Mozambique

    There are two main seasons in Mozambique – the wet season from October to March and the dry season from April to September. The dry season is the ideal time to enjoy the most pleasant weather. Go on a Mozambique family safari and dive beneath its waters, when weaker currents and less wind make for better visibility.
