You will start your exploration of Malawi with 3 nights of safari, after a quick 2 hour drive from Chileka Airport in Blantyre. You'll stay at Mkulumadzi luxury camp in the Majete Wildlife Reserve, and enjoy game drives as well as river cruises and walking safaris. With just 8 chalets in this large private concession you are guaranteed an amazing and unique wildlife experience.
Your next stop is 2 nights at the Satemwa Tea Estate, a wonderful break in your safari journey. You can stretch your legs, taste some of the best tea on the planet, and cycle around the picturesque rows of tea bushes with Mount Mulanje as your backdrop.
Liwonde is your next point of call, one of Malawi's premier national parks, is now home to a significant black rhino population as well as many other mammals including elephant, lion and cheetah. Kuthengo Camp is nestled among Fever trees and Baobabs on an open plain stretching towards the Shire River. Enjoy views from your private deck of the herds of waterbuck that frequent the camp area in the evenings. Day or night game drives are offered in open-top game-viewing vehicles, and guests can also go on bush walks. Boating on the lagoons is a special treat that can be enjoyed from the end of December to early April.
After a week of safari, you'll be looking forward to your stay at Kaya Mawa, on the white sandy beaches of Likoma Island. "Kaya Mawa" translates as "Maybe Tomorrow"... the Likoma Island version of mañana... without the urgency. You can relax on pristine beaches, snorkel and dive in crystal-clear waters, as well as enjoy a variety of water sports.
