Highly Recommended Tour with Experienced Guide - I learned so much not only about the history do Maputo but also Mozambique on this tour! My tour kind was open and patient in answering all of my questions and was extremely knowledgeable about all the sites we visited. Highly w recommend this tour to solo travelers (like myself) and groups alike to get a better understanding of Maputo/Mozambique!

Excellent experience exploring Maputo - I did a two-day tour with MTS throughout Maputo and Mafalala. The guides were extremely knowledgable, friendly, experienced, spoke perfect English, and set up a dynamic tour that combined culture, local food, history, and art. The car was clean, spacious and reliable. I 100% recommend MTS for anyone looking to get to know Maputo. Thank you!

Tour operator was a con artist. Guide was good. - We purchased a private tour. First passengers off the cruise ship. Found tour operator who insisted that other people were going to share our tour with us. After arguing and waiting 45 minutes and calling Viator we were able to proceed as the private tour that we purchased. Next problem was the car wouldn’t start. After getting it started, we were driven to the guide who took over. He gave us a good tour.
