Market Visits

This is a shopping trip with the Travessia team to the small town markets of Morrumbene, Massinga or Maxixe, places that cater more to locals than tourists, which makes for relaxed browsing. Look for the colourful printed fabric worn by Mozambican women, woven baskets, traditional food preparation tools, and stalls of fruit, vegetables and spices. For a wider range of curios, the team recommends a trip instead to the markets at Inhambane or Tofo. It is an unhurried way to see everyday local trade rather than a display put on for visitors.
