South Africans can still travel to southern Mozambique, advise travel experts
The recent attack on Palma, a small town in northern Mozambique by Islamist groups has caused concerns about whether South Africans should skip their planned Mozambique trips.
The South African High Commission in Maputo, the capital of Mozambique, said on Monday that as many as 43 South Africans were affected by the recent attacks in the north of the country. IOL Travel spoke to a few South Africa travel experts to find out whether it's safe for travel and if so, which destinations they could visit.
Owner of Mozambique Tours Ricky Jacobs said that South Africans can still travel to the southern part of Mozambique, which includes attractions like Maputo, Inhambane, Ponta d'Ouro, and Vilanculos.
Jacobs recommended that travellers not travel to the far north.
