Whether you’re visiting Maputo for the first time or getting around every day, Met Road makes the city easy to move through. Below is every rapid-transit line we track in Maputo, with live status, so you always know what’s running and what’s on the way.
The easiest way in from the airport is usually a ride-hailing app (Uber, Bolt or a local equivalent) — fixed prices, no haggling, and ideal with luggage. Licensed airport taxis are also available; always agree the fare before you set off.
