Don’t plan on walking or riding a bike when trying to get around Maputo.

The city has very few traffic lights and many drivers don’t exactly obey the road signs.

Also, don’t attempt to drive in Maputo unless you are a local resident. There’s just too much to see and it’s too fascinating of a place; don’t risk ruining your trip by a simple driving error.

Taxi drivers are somewhat intolerant of pedestrians and can sometimes drive very close to them. Definitely be careful walking around looking at the beautiful architecture (even on sidewalks).
