ANGOLA – EXPRESSO VIAGENS

Angola offers abundant natural attractions. The country has a big coastline and a long summer season with

moderate average temperatures. Aside from the tropical sunny weather, the country offers many sandy beaches, wonderful waterfalls, beautiful landscapes and natural wildlife parks.

Angola has direct flights from several major cities around the world. Music is the heart and soul of every

Angolan, it can be heard anywhere and they use anything as an excuse to party. The country has a wide range of music, mainly Kuduro, Kizomba, Semba and Tarrachinha, the latter being more sensual than all the others. All in all it is safe to say that Angolans are fun, loving people with a thirst for everything that life has to offer.
