- Angola

Angola is the new travel adventure in Africa

Angola is not for everyone, but it is an interesting option for experienced globetrotters and trendsetters.

For the adventurous traveler who is looking to share spell-binding tales of daring deeds with like-minded, buddies around the fireplace over a cognac, under the hunting trophies, this is definitely an option to consider! Or if water is what you´re looking for, pick a spot along the Atlantic coast that seems to go on forever – for 1,650 km. to be precise. Africa as a travel destination is growing rapidly in terms of tourist facilities and popularity. Traveltalk.dk will follow this development closely and suggest options for every taste in Africa.

Luanda is the Capital of Angola

The capital is Luanda and, according to government sources, the country´s economy is growing rapidly. This is good news for the former Portuguese colony which certainly needed a boost following a post-colonial civil war that lasted 25 years and brought the country to its knees before it finally ended in 2002.

Note that you will need to obtain a visa, and it is wise to apply for it well in advance. Also,, keep an eye on information concerning travel restrictions or recommendations published online by your own country´s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
