Fantastic experience in the wild

Matteo_M, Jun 2025
Everything was very good. From pick up to the safari itself, to the guide who had excellent English. We saw many animals and we really enjoyed the nature of the park and seeing plenty of animals. We really appreciated seeing the biodiversity of the park

Great experience. Didn't make it all the way to the Indian Ocean coast but the variety of landscapes is interesting and very beautiful. Try to get there earlier rather than later, as there are more animals.

Great

Jesse_H, Mar 2024
Awesome tour, Edison was great. The national park was cool, saw a lot of giraffes and zebras, one hippo, no luck for elephants. I requested that we go for lunch at millibangalala resort and they were very willing to accommodate and very responsive to communicate with before the trip . I’d definitely recommend asking for this stop as the resort and beach are really beautiful. The tour also provides a nice picnic lunch. Overall a great experience.

Parque que está renaciendo

JoseLuis_J, Oct 2022
La actitud del guía siempre pendiente de mis intereses. El parque está en reconstrucción. De momento hay ya bastantes antílopes y jirafas, así como elefantes. Supongo que cuando sean suficientes reintroducirán los grandes felinos. Está muy cerca de Maputo y es una buena excursión para complementarla. Todavía Ahora bien, el parque Krugger es muy superior, no hay color

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Jose, muito obrigado pelo seu review. Estamos felizez por saber que gostou do passeio. Realmente o parque está em reconstrução e conta ainda com muito espaço para a inserção de muitos animais, algo que já começou a ocorrer. Mas o facto desse não ser tão desenvolvido quanto alguns outros parques torna o parque nacional um lugar muito mais natural Edilson
