Upon my arrival to Maputo I booked a tour with the above mentioned tour operating company through TripAdvisor. I made the booking via TripAdvisor and payment was made. Just to receive and email from the operators informing me that in the chosen date there is no availability and thus we agreed on Tuesday, 31 December at 10h00. On the day I was in communication with the operator and they informed me they are on their way. I waited till 12h00 and I send numerous messages (via whatsapp) and called but I was ignored. Till today I have not received an apology or some type of explanation. Does TripAdvisor not communicate with companies regarding their availability? Payment was made already as I had to give my information. Will I be getting a refund since the company was a no show? There has to be better communication between companies in this regard. I am disappointed at the service I received from both companies and feel lied to. Going forward I will warn people not to make any type of tours via TripAdvisor and when in Maputo not to use Vibe Experience. This is totally unacceptable. Kind Regards Albertina

I did a solo tour with these guys. They are very knowledgeable, but also very chilled. I felt like I was getting a tour of my friend’s backyard. Definitely a must if you want a cultural tour that not too intense.

I was in Maputo only for a few days. On my one free day, I wanted to experience more of the city. I really learned a lot in those few hours, saw some very cool, historic sites and heard some great stories. I hope to go back to Maputo, but for now, this tour left me feeling like I had a wonderful introduction to downtown Maputo, learned some interesting history and got to see very interesting architecture.

I did a tour of downtown with Calisto, who is an excellent guide. I cannot recommend him enough - he is extremely knowledgeable about the city, history, and architecture, and was able to answer all of my questions. He is clearly passionate about his work, patient - I never felt hurried - and helpful. He is perfect for travellers that want to understand Mozambique then and now. I look forward to returning to the city and doing more tours with him!
