Dogs in Moz - 17 years ago
You shouldn't have hassles taking your pets into Moz, but please be aware that dogs or usually not kept as pets in rural areas, but for security and hunting and have to fend for themselves. You could be attacked by the local mongrels trying to get at your dogs if you are not careful. Cycling in Moz is hard enough without the added concern of pets. Also to get your dogs back into SA you may hav...by mozguide in: Mozambique Travel Forum
Visas are issued on arrival. - 17 years ago
Visas have been issued on arrival at all International airports and almost all land borders (Namoto near Quionga not yet?). Costs US$25 and a formality but you may need to wait an hour or more during busy periods, especially at the Lebombo/Ressano Garcia land border from Dec 10 to 25 and over the Easter period.

Investing in Moz - 17 years ago
Hi Sarah Some of the basics are at www.cpi.co.mz but to obtain a lease on a piece of land you will firstly have to get a majority Moz partner or reg your own company in Moz. Not straightforward but doable with help. Mike www.#####.com ...by mozguide in: Mozambique Travel Forum
If you are serious... - 17 years ago
... I can help. I have been travelling throughout Mozambique (yes, even to Negomano) since 1992, have my own Moz company and property and keep up to date with all the legislation and opportunities. It's one thing to be interested in investing in Moz, but what type of investment? What sort of risk exposure can you afford. Moz is not for sprinters. Email me if you are after professional advice...by mozguide in: Mozambique Travel Forum
Try Club Naval - 18 years ago

Must it be Xai-Xai? - 18 years ago
Is it essential that you stay right in Xai-Xai? Reason I ask is that I know Moz pretty well and Xai-Xai, while it has its moments, has never been a favourite. Why not try a little up the coast? 8-10 Jan should not be fully booked as it is out of the govt hols in SA. Send me an email Best wishes Mike www.@#$%&.com ...by mozguide in: Mozambique Travel Forum
Giriyondo border post. - 18 years ago
I was at Giriyondo (from the Moz side) on September 25 and the Mozambique side was not complete and it certainly was NOT open. If you try to approach from the Kruger side you will get to a no entry road before you get to the border. Unofficial word is that it will be officially opened by the end of October but don't bet on it. Watch www.@#$%&.com for further developments.

Visas issued for US$30 on arrival - 18 years ago
It is by far easiest and cheapest (US$30) to get your visa on arrival in Mozambique. Visas have been issued at most land, and all airports for a couple of years now. And I should know Mike www.@#$%&.com ...by mozguide in: Mozambique Travel Forum
Sounds great but... - 18 years ago
the days of 'free-camping' in Moz are long over and if you do just pitch camp on a nice remote beach, you are likely to be greeted by someone asking you to pay a hefty fine. In the south you could consider the Maputo Elephant Reserve, or otherwise you will have to go way north of the Zambezi river. Look at a good website for most of the answers.
