The UK Scouts

The Scouts embarked on a whirlwind adventure, immersing themselves in Malawi’s natural wonders. Starting in Blantyre, they set off to explore the captivating Liwonde National Park, a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. Their stay at Kutchire Lodge provided them with comfort and relaxation after their thrilling encounters with the park’s unique flora and fauna. Their journey continued to the stunning Cape Maclear, where they reveled in the idyllic surroundings of Fat Monkeys Lodge. Finally, they explored the historical charm of Zomba, making memories at T&D Lodge before bidding farewell to Malawi after a truly memorable escapade.

Marsh Family’s 15-Day Malawian Odyssey

The Marsh Family’s 15-day tour of Malawi was an awe-inspiring expedition through some of the country’s most enchanting destinations. Beginning at the Huntingdon House in Thyolo, they embarked on a scenic route that led them to Zomba Forest Lodge, where they enjoyed two nights surrounded by the tranquility of nature. The journey continued to Mvuu Camp, where they indulged in three nights of unforgettable safari experiences. At Pumulani Lodge, the family savored the breathtaking views of Lake Malawi, and at Kaya Mawa, they basked in the luxurious comfort of this lakeside paradise. Guided by our knowledgeable guide Ken, the Marsh Family’s voyage was an exploration of Malawi’s diverse landscapes and vibrant culture.
