Travel notes for Mozambique

MZ / FIELD NOTES

OVERVIEW

The lay of the land

With 6 neighbours sharing a border, Mozambique lends itself to chaining. Overland isn’t plan B: it’s often faster and you always see more.

STAYING CONNECTED

Data the moment you land

The first place being connected pays off is passport control, when they ask for your hotel address and it’s sitting in your email. Plans run from 1 GB to 20 GB, valid up to 30 days. An Ozu eSIM installs before you fly and wakes up when you touch down.

WHEN TO GO

Timing your trip

Summer in Mozambique runs December to February and winter June to August, the exact opposite of the north. The transition months usually hand you the best weather at the best price.

MONEY

Paying your way

When a card machine or an ATM asks whether you want to pay in your own currency, say no: that’s dynamic currency conversion and the rate is always worse for you. Pay in the local currency every time, and leave the airport exchange desk as a last resort.

ENTRY

Documents & cover

The name on the ticket has to match the passport exactly, middle names and all. It sounds trivial until an airline treats a missing letter as a different person, and fixing it at the desk costs money.

LANGUAGE

Getting understood

English isn’t a given everywhere you’ll go. Download an offline map and keep a translation app on your connected phone: directions, menus, taxis and check-ins all get a lot smoother when you can point, read and translate on the spot.
