Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How far is Vilanculos from Maputo?
Approximately 720 km. It's an exhausting 11-13 hour trip.
Is it worth going by car?
Only if it's a large group (Quantum) to split costs or if you want to see the country. Otherwise, flying is highly recommended due to fatigue and fuel costs.
How's the road to Vilanculos?
Variable/Unpredictable. This is a very long haul. While large parts are paved, the section between Maxixe and Vilankulos can be rough with "patchwork" repairs.
What is the best time to leave?
At 5:00 AM or earlier to avoid arriving in Vilanculos at night, which is not recommended for road safety reasons (animals and lack of lighting on the EN1).
