Bush and beach on the same day
If you've ever traveled to well-known African vacation spots like Tanzania, Kenya, or South Africa, you are aware that long drives every day are the norm and that domestic flights are frequently included in itineraries. Malawi is one of the countries where combining the jungle and the beach is easiest because it is roughly half the size of the United Kingdom. Few places allow you to quickly travel from one activity to another without taking a flight in between, such as watching cheetahs in the morning and sipping sundowners on a dhow sailboat in the afternoon.
Only two to three hours separate the southern end of Lake Malawi from Liwonde National Park. It's possible to spend the morning on a safari in South Luangwa and the afternoon relaxing on the beach at Lake Malawi. Whether on a privately guided or self-drive vacation to Malawi, it is safe and simple to get around due to its small size, calm population, and respectable level of roads. On the other side, there are good scheduled and charter flight services, connecting airstrips in the major cities around the nation, if you are pressed for time or would like to fly.
A fantastic 11-hour excursion to Lake Malawi and the Kuti Wildlife Reserve is offered by the cool Dutch guys at "1 2 Travel Africa." This tour is the ideal day trip from Lilongwe if you don't have much time but still want to explore both the beach and the bush of Malawi. These two men, who are both from the Netherlands, have lived in South Africa and Malawi for a while. They will look after you well because they have experience in the tourism sector. Similar to many other neighbouring nations, Malawi is popular for its stunning natural surroundings.
