Luxury Malawi Safari Packages

Malawi is a relatively tiny country when compared to others in Africa, but its size conceals the diversity of its topography. It stretches from the sandy shores and barren islands of the middle region to the mist-shrouded mountains of the south and the highlands and swamps teeming with hippos in the far north. Country wildlife, beautiful lakes, and exciting local traditions draw people to this off-the-beaten-path destination.

A glittering body of clean water, Lake Malawi is Africa’s third largest lake and fills the trough formed by the Great Rift Valley. Kayak over its placid surface or dive down to where schools of bright fish swim. Golden sands and secluded coves border the northern coast, as if plucked from a Caribbean fantasy. Mount Mulanje and the Zomba Plateau, surrounded by emerald-green tea fields, are often regarded as the pinnacle of hiking destinations due to their dense, misty forests and intriguing animals.

Nyika National Park, a mystical environment of bare plateaus and pine forests that is home to zebra and leopard, straddles the Zambian border. Large herds of elephants, buffalo, and antelope roam the flat, humid forests and wetlands of Vwaza Marsh Wildlife Reserve. Livingstonia, on the edge of Nyika National Park, is home to historic missionary structures and an eerily tranquil vibe.
