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!
Majete Wildlife Reserve in southwestern Malwai offers 700,000 ha (700km2) of Big 5 safari wildness to travellers who prefer off-the-beaten-track. Thanks to a flourishing joint venture between the Malawian government and African Parks, it is also one of Africa's greatest conservation success stories.
The park is known for its towering granite hills, open savannahs and beautiful miombo woodlands. Two giant rivers – the gentle Mkulumadzi River and the mighty Shire River – converge in Majete on their journey from Lake Malawi further north to join the Zambezi River and, finally, the Indian Ocean.
Majete wildlife
Your Majete safari will include searching for the Big 5 - black rhino, elephant, lion, leopard and buffalo - and other species such as cheetah, African wild dog (painted wolf), hyena, sable and roan antelope, hippopotamus, crocodile, giraffe and eland. Smaller species such as side-striped jackal, honey badger, aardvark, aardwolf and pangolin can also be seen. Over 300 bird species call Majete home - including African skimmer, rock pratincole, Arnot’s and boulder chats, racket-tailed roller, Pel’s fishing owl, cuckoo hawk, and Böhm's bee-eater.

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.
