Getting There
Mozambique Parks
Philip is a renowned Africa expert and author of many Bradt guidebooks to African destinations, including the guide to Mozambique.
For most international travelers, Maputo International Airport (MPM) is the entry point into Mozambique. It is about 3km/2mi from Maputo, the capital.
Limpopo National Park is mainly a self-drive destination. Roads in the park mostly require a 4x4. You can hire a 4x4 in Maputo and drive to the park. The distance is about 400km/250mi and the drive takes about 5 hours*.
Limpopo National Park can also be visited as an extension to a Kruger National Park tour or en route from Kruger to the Mozambican coast. There are two border posts between Kruger and Limpopo. The main border post is in Giriyondo, about 40km/25mi from Letaba Rest Camp in Kruger. Pafuri border post is in the far north of the park. This border point lies on a serious 4x4 route that should be done in convoy.
There are no flights to anywhere near the park.
*Driving times are only a rough indication. You should always consider the possibility of significant delays.
