Excursion Cultural immersion: musseque da mulemba experience tour at Luanda

Embark on a captivating 2h30 tour that offers an authentic glimpse into the vibrant culture and community spirit of Luanda’s Musseque da Mulemba.

The Musseque da Mulembia is an area located in the outskirts of Luanda and the word musseque refers to informal settlement or slums commonly found in Angolan cities. These communities often lack basic infrastructure and services like clean water, sanitation and electricity. This carefully curated experience is designed to engage tourists with an interest in understanding the local way of life, traditions, and the community's efforts to thrive within Angola's rapidly transforming urban landscape. The tour is conducted in English to ensure a comprehensive and inclusive experience for all participants.

Note

Please note: Angola is a very-low-income country with very basic infrastructure, and vastly different to the western culture mentality. Local conditions may be challenging; therefore, we urge flexibility and understanding as we visit unique and somewhat remote destinations. Coaches, guides, equipment, and services are the best-available in the area, but may not be up to the standards of those found on other excursions. A moderate amount of walking and standing for approximately 1km (0.63 miles). At times over uneven, unpaved surfaces, with a few steps to negotiate to get on/off the coach. Lightweight, comfortable clothing with flat, closed-toe walking shoes and sun protection is recommended. Keep belongings secure; Leave all valuables onboard; do not wear any jewelry shoreside. Be mindful of cultural sensitivities. Anticipate high temperatures and humidity and we recommend staying hydrated by bringing your water bottle. Guests are informed that tips to local guides and drivers are at the guest’s discretion.
