safari experts, since 1991
Hi, hoi, hola, hallo
Trust us to find you the rarest animals, the most spectacular wildlife events, the remotest landscapes and deeply meaningful cultural encounters!
Liwonde National Park is a 54,800-hectare (548km2) protected area on the banks of the Shire River in Malawi - just south of Lake Malombe and Lake Malawi.
Scenic landscapes include riverine floodplains, woodlands, and arid savannas. This is a great comeback story - how a sustainable Big-5 safari destination was reclaimed from a poached wasteland under the expert guidance of African Parks.
Liwonde wildlife
Your Liwonde safari will include searching for the Big 5 - black rhino, elephant, lion, leopard and buffalo - although leopards are seldom seen.
Other species include cheetah, African wild dog (painted wolf), hyena, sable and roan antelope, hippopotamus, crocodile, Lichtenstein’s hartebeest and eland and commonly seen species such as warthog, impala, zebra, wildebeest, waterbuck, common duiker, kudu and bushbuck. Smaller species include side-striped jackal, honey badger, aardvark, pangolin and several species of mongoose.
Over 460 species of birds have been recorded, including Lillian’s lovebird, Pel’s fishing owl, Boehm’s bee-eater, and Livingstone’s flycatcher.

Why choose us to craft your safari?
Handcrafted experiential safaris since 1991.
Travel in Africa is about knowing when and where to go, and with whom. A few weeks too early/late or a few kilometres off course, and you could miss the greatest show on Earth. And wouldn’t that be a pity?
Trust & Safety
Client safari payments remain in a third-party TRUST ACCOUNT until they return from safari - protecting them in the unlikely event of a financial setback on our part.
Make a difference
We donate a portion of the revenue from every safari sold to carefully selected conservation projects that make a significant difference at ground level.
YOUR safari choice does make a difference - thank you!
