Gorongosa National Park
Often referred to as 'the place where Noah parked his Ark',
Gorongosa National Park was a playground for the rich and famous
back in the 1960s, lured by the abundance of wildlife in the area.
The subsequent years of war and poaching decimated the wildlife
count but programmes have since been put in place to restore the
park's previous status. There are traversable roads to the park
from both Beira and Maputo, and comfortable lodgings are available
at Chitengo Safari Camp.
Information & Facts

Portuguese is the official language, and there are 13
main national languages spoken. English is taught in secondary
schools, but is only spoken in the southern tourist
regions.

into 100 centavos. In the southern parts of the country, South
African Rand, US Dollars and Pounds Sterling are also accepted to
pay for accommodation. Credit cards are accepted in some upmarket
hotels in Maputo, but facilities throughout the rest of the country
are limited; it is advisable to carry cash or travellers cheques.
ATMs are limited and tend to be unreliable, but local banks have
branches in most cities.
