If you’re racking your brain on what destination will inspire your dynamic sales team to perform better, consider keeping it close to home and hosting your travel incentive in Mozambique.

The Mozambican capital of Maputo, just an hour’s flight from Johannesburg, is developing itself as an attractive MICE centre in Southern Africa, with such infrastructure as Tsogo Sun’s construction of the R220m Stay Easy hotel adjoining the new Baia Mall. Set for completion in April, this new complex will become a popular business travel hub with its modern accommodation.

Air travel
Located just an hour’s flight from Johannesburg means it’s easy to host your travel incentive in Mozambique. Your delegates do not require visas and there are also flights between Nelspruit KMIA and Vilanculos – the gateway to the Bazaruto Archipelago and the Vilanculos Conference Centre, which offers first-class facilities, service and stunning ocean views.

Road travel
In June 2018, the much-awaited Maputo-to-Ponta do Ouro road, encompassing Africa’s largest suspension bridge (Catembe Bridge), will open for business. Once complete, travelling time between Kosi Bay and Maputo will be drastically reduced from six hours to just 90 minutes.

Beach activities
Enjoy ample water activities abound in this tropical destination – a perfect location for team building. Think scuba diving, snorkeling, boating, tubing, sunset cruises, jet-skiing, kayaking, fishing and plenty of swimming and relaxing on a sun-lounger with a cocktail in hand. Non-motorised activities are typically complimentary at ocean based hotels and resorts.

From Maputo, Dana Tours organises scenic day trips to the Macaneta Peninsula via Costa do Sol on the new highway. They also run a day trip to Inhaca Island across the Maputo Bay. The boat departs from the Maputo Marina (Escola Nautica) to Santa Maria in the morning for some snorkelling, as well as the Inhaca Island for a seafood lunch.

Bush adventures
Your delegates could also combine their beach time with various safari activities. Gorongosa National Park was successfully restored as a wildlife hotspot, used as a filming location for National Geographic documentaries “Africa’s Lost Eden” and “War Elephants”.

Combine Mozambique with the Kruger National Park – a multi-destination MICE itinerary with a difference including game drives and lodge accommodation with the beach and culture.
