Beautiful, Friendly, Unspoiled... Safari & Beaches without Crowds - the African country less-traveled
Although not as well-known as some of its neighboring safari countries, a traveler can enjoy Malawi’s many attractions without crowds or, in many cases, high prices.
Best Suited to Which Type of Travelers:
Malawi is an excellent choice for well-traveled individuals who are looking for a unspoiled country to explore. Water lovers and wildlife lovers alike will be delighted with the many experiences offered.
We Recommend These Experiences:
• Explore Liwonde National Park, home to flood plains, wetland swamps of swaying grass fields, and baobab groves. • Snorkelers, kayakers, and wildlife lovers head to Lake Malawi National Park for nature and history. • Likoma Island offers crystal clear waters for snorkeling and fishing. • Horseback riding, as well as birding and hiking, are excellent in Nyika National Park. • See the Big Five (elephant, rhino, lion, leopard, buffalo), along with hundreds of other animals, in Majete Wildlife Reserve. • Birding is excellent at Lake Malawi, as well the diving! • Head to Kasungu National Park for a more adventurous time helping the ecotourism profile, as wildlife is back on track.
