7-Day Malawi Wildlife & Beach

• You’ll be collected from the airport (or hotel).
• Accommodation before the tour starts can be arranged for an extra cost.

After arrival at the airport you will be met and taken to Majete Wildlife Reserve, which is about 1 hour drive away. Long neglected, Majete has been the scene of an impressive programme of re-location. Up to date 2,559 animals from 14 different species have been reintroduced including the big five, leopard, elephant, buffalo, black rhino and lion. Similary, other mammals reintroduced were eland, sable, waterbuck, nyala, hartebeest, impala, zebra, warthog and bush pig. This makes Majete one of the only reserves in Malawi where the big 5 can be viewed all year round. You will check-in at Sunbird Thawale Lodge, situated within the park in the Shire Valley and in the afternoon (time dependant) you will go on your first shared afternoon safari drive to look out for all those mentioned animals.
