Benguerra Beach Add-on

Benguerra Beach Add-on: In full

This lovely beach add-on trip spends 6 nights at Benguerra Lodge on Benguerra Island in Mozambique's Bazaruto Archipelago, including flights to/from Johannesburg; it is perfect to add onto one of our safaris to Botswana, or our trips to Namibia or Zambia – staying at a quiet and private place to relax at the end of a safari.

The flights from Johannesburg to Vilanculos (in Mozambique), which are very much a part of this trip, depart in the morning. Hence most travellers overnight at a hotel in Johannesburg before this trip – and many will transfer directly through to international flights at the end of it.


Day 1

1 night at Benguerra Lodge (full board) | Bazaruto Archipelago, Mozambique

The Casitas at Benguerra Lodge all have their own plunge pools...Your scheduled flight from Johannesburg to Mozambique, with Pelican Air, usually leaves at about 10:20 in the morning. By around 13:00 you are in Vilanculos, where you stop briefly (completing customs and immigration formalities) before hopping on a 10-minute flight to the islands. There you'll disembark, to be met by a vehicle for the short drive to Benguerra Lodge.

Days 2-6

5 nights at Benguerra Lodge (full board) | Bazaruto Archipelago, Mozambique

The Casitas at Benguerra Lodge all have their own plunge pools...Staying at Benguerra Lodge for total of six nights, your open-sided bungalow is slightly set back from the beach, in lush vegetation – it's a great spot to relax. You'll also have access to Benguerra's well-equipped water-sports centre, where many activities are complementary – and first-class PADI diving, snorkelling and big game fishing are also available (payable locally).

Day 7

After your last morning's leisurely breakfast, you'll hop by plane back to Vilanculos – arriving there around 13:00.

Your flight to Johannesburg usually departs at about 14:00, and then arrives in O.R. Tambo Airport (Johannesburg International) at about 16:30 – in great time to connect with overnight flights back to Europe.
