Bordering the Luangwa River, the northern and southern Luangwa National Parks contain some of the most breathtaking and untouched wilderness in Africa. As a result of this and the parks’ successful anti-poaching campaigns, the area has developed into a world-renowned wildlife haven. The South Luangwa National Park is renowned for its walking safari, which allows visitors to view elephant, hippo and even lion close-up under the supervision of professional and knowledgeable armed guides.

Mumbo Island is a secluded eco-paradise set within the crystal-clear waters of Lake Malawi National Park. Covering just one square kilometre, this uninhabited island is blanketed in pristine miombo woodland, dotted with ancient fig and baobab trees that create a peaceful natural setting. The surrounding lake offers exceptional opportunities for swimming, snorkelling, kayaking, and paddleboarding among colourful cichlid fish found only in Lake Malawi. Nature lovers may also spot the island's resident Spotted-necked Otters, known for their playful and inquisitive behaviour. With no roads, vehicles, or permanent settlements, Mumbo provides an authentic wilderness experience focused on relaxation and nature. The island's sole lodge is constructed from sustainable natural materials, blending seamlessly into the landscape and offering an environmentally conscious retreat in one of Malawi's most beautiful locations.
