Mozambique from Dubai
Mozambique is a beach and dive destination, not a wildlife safari — the Indian Ocean coastline and offshore archipelagos, most often paired with a mainland Southern Africa safari rather than visited alone. Oloi Shorua designs private, tailor-made Mozambique journeys for travellers based in Dubai and across the GCC — planned directly by the founder, never from a fixed package.
Flying from Dubai to Mozambique
There is no direct flight between Dubai and Maputo. Qatar Airways connects via Doha, while other options route through Addis Ababa or Nairobi, with total journey times commonly ranging from around ten to eleven hours depending on the connection.
Where We Take You in Mozambique
The Bazaruto and Quirimbas Archipelagos are the principal draws — private-island lodges, coral reefs and some of the clearest water on the East African coast, well suited to diving and genuine seclusion. Most of our clients pair Mozambique with a mainland safari in Zimbabwe, South Africa or Zambia, closing a bush-and-beach itinerary the way Zanzibar closes a Tanzania trip — days in the bush followed by days on the water, rather than a single-register holiday.
Planning a Mozambique Journey from Dubai
Every journey begins with a conversation about time available, whether Mozambique stands alone or extends a mainland safari, and which archipelago suits you. As a planning reference, privately designed Mozambique journeys commonly begin from approximately $800–$5,000 per person, per day, with exceptional private-island properties considerably higher. Because every journey is fully customised, exactly what’s included — accommodation, inter-island transfers, and pre- and post-trip stays — varies by itinerary and is confirmed during planning, not fixed in advance.
