Malawi Safaris

A truly unique safari experience

Malawi has undergone a remarkable wildlife revival over the last few years, transforming it into a truly unique and exciting safari destination.

Once overlooked, Malawi has quietly emerged as one of Africa’s most rewarding safari destinations, thanks to world-class conservation efforts – including those led by African Parks. The country now boasts the Big Five – lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and black rhino – alongside cheetah, giraffe, zebra and a wide variety of antelope species and birdlife.

These remarkable recoveries have taken place in protected areas like Majete, Liwonde, Nkhotakota, and Nyika – each offering its own distinct landscapes and character.

Part of what sets Malawi apart is the sheer variety of safari experiences on offer. From traditional 4x4 game drives and boat safaris along the Shire River to walking safaris, canoe excursions and even mountain biking, the country delivers a more adventurous, hands-on alternative to the typical safari.

Accommodation is just as varied, ranging from well-appointed mid-range lodges to high-end luxury camps – perfect for both intrepid families and couples seeking a romantic escape.

Importantly, Malawi remains largely untouched by mass tourism. Its parks are uncrowded, the experiences feel truly authentic, and the welcome is always warm.

Add to that the beauty of Lake Malawi – ideal for unwinding after your safari – and you have a rare, off-the-beaten-track wildlife destination with conservation at its heart.

Far and Wild went above and beyond to make sure my trip to Zambia was special. I would definitely recommend them and their services to anyone wanting to travel to Africa.

Lovely holiday at the amazing Almanara on Galu beach, a beach like no other. Far and Wild excelled themselves from beginning to end of our holiday in beautiful Kenya.... What a country!,

Wow! These guys are amazing. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Friendly AND efficient! Sorted out our trip (last minute and lots of different family member needs, sorry!) in record time and everything worked like clockwork. Trip of a lifetime to the Masai Mara. Will be back (and use F&W again!)!
