Fewer tourists around

Malawi is still largely undiscovered and untouched by tourists and tourism, in contrast to some popular vacation spots in Africa like Mauritius, making it the ideal location for tourists seeking an authentic and solitary African experience. Imagine having a perfect day without having it ruined by a group of tourists blasting loud music in such stunning locations as the beaches along Lake Malawi. And it's an ideal place to watch the sunrise without being disturbed. One of the favorite moments in Malawi was seeing the sunrise on the Shire River. Being on the water has a completely calming effect. Only the sounds of animals rising up to enjoy the sun surround you. Before the sun rises, you start swimming up the river, past countless hippos, crocodiles, birds, and, if you're lucky, approaching elephants.

Additionally, you won't need to compete for reservations at hotels, restaurants, or amusement parks. The capital, Lilongwe, has a low car population, which makes it possible for you to walk around without feeling overwhelmed or afraid of being run over. Madonna's hotel, the Kumbali Country Lodge, offers a high standard of living, but you can also find more affordable lodging there. It one of the many reasons to visit Malawi.
