MAUSOLÉU DR. ANTÓNIO AGOSTINHO NETO
Day 3: De de Mussulo
Steps: Ilha De Mussulo, Cabo Ledo, Parque Nacional Da Kissama
Visit of the Museum of Slavery and excursion to the peninsula of Mussulo. The visit of this museum can also be programmed towards Kissama National Park, towards the beaches of Cabo Ledo or south of the country. Remember that it is highly recommended to leave downtown at dawn (or before dawn) for day trips or large trips to avoid losing a large number of hours in traffic jams.
MUSEU NACIONAL DA ESCRAVATURA
Day 4: Lubango
Steps: Lubango
The city, which was called Sa da Bandeira until 1975, was mainly developed by settlers from Madeira Island and is one of the highest cities in the country (1,720 m). It is 1h30 by plane from the capital (compared to almost 15h by bus). Keep a day to reach Lubango and if you have time, start your visit in the city centre.
Day 5: Lubango and its surroundings
Steps: Lubango
Visit of the city centre and direction Cristo Rei, a 14-metre statue with the effigy of Christ at an altitude of 2,130 metres. The day continues with the Estrada da Tundavala located northwest of Lubango. This natural site, which culminates at an altitude of 2,600 m, will give you a breathtaking view of Angola and its high plateaus. The rest of your visit will be followed by the Serra da Leba and its landscaped terraces, which will also offer you superb views and breathtaking natural landscapes. To get there, you will have to take 21 bends over 14 kilometres. A photograph worthy of a postcard at the end of the day, a beautiful reward, isn't it?
