A week allows for a good exploration. You could spend a few days at Lake Malawi, perhaps exploring Cape Maclear or Nkhata Bay, then head inland to Liwonde National Park for a wildlife safari. This itinerary offers a mix of relaxation and adventure.
What are the best lodges for families and kids in Malawi?
Which parts of Malawi are ideal for a weekend trip?
