The Very Best of Safari – with Internal Flights

On arrival at Chileka International Airport, your driver will meet you and transfer you in a private taxi to Chimwenya Game Reserve - roughly an hour away from the airport.

Accommodation will be at Game Haven in a Luxury Cottage on a full board basis for two nights.

The lodge is in a private game reserve where your biggest worry is having zebras on the golf course blocking your shot off as they casually graze on the fairway. Beautiful spacious rooms, great food, numerous activities and a swimming pool are all included which make this a very popular destination.

After breakfast, you will head off for the approx 2.5 hour journey to Majete Wildlife Reserve - with a chance to enjoy impressive views as you descend the escarpment. You’ll arrive in time for lunch before your first afternoon game drive.

Your accommodation for the next two nights will be at Thawale Camp, in a private chalet on a full board basis. The restaurant has a wonderful open dining area and bar with a viewing deck overlooking a floodlit watering hole where one can sit for hours enjoying the wildlife.

Majete Wildlife Reserve was the first park in Malawi to claim ‘Big 5’ status. Once desolate and heavily poached, Majete is a real life conservation fairytale. This dramatic resurgence has made Majete become a strong contender as one of Malawi’s premium wildlife reserves. You’ll enjoy a total of four game activities in Majete Wildlife Reserve.

After your final morning game activity and breakfast, you’ll start your 3 hour journey to Zomba.

Your accommodation will be at Ku Chawe Inn, a property at the top of Zomba plateau with breath-taking views. All rooms are ensuite with air conditioning and you’ll be on a bed and breakfast rate for two nights.

Your accommodation for the next three nights will be in a private ensuite tented chalet at Mvuu Wilderness Lodge on a full board basis with six game activities included during your stay. This exclusive safari getaway based right on the shores of the Shire river combines the rugged African bush with luxurious comfort and unforgettable game activities. With beautifully designed chalets and a cooling swimming pool, your time in between game activities will be almost as memorable.

Arguably the best national park in Malawi, Liwonde has a high concentration of elephants, hippos, crocodiles, antelope plus a rapidly growing population of cheetah, lion & other mammals. The most recently introduced black rhino and wild dogs make this park, Malawi’s star attraction with its ‘Big 5’ status
