Malawi travel guides

Relatively undiscovered compared to other African destinations, Malawi offers a diverse mix of scenery and activities. Our travel guides offer information and advice on travelling to ‘the warm heart of Africa’, whether planning your honeymoon or simply wishing to spot local wildlife.

From dramatic mountains and lush tea estates to reserves that are home to a variety of game and other wildlife, Malawi has something to offer everyone. Meanwhile, the vast Lake Malawi covers over a fifth of the country, providing clear waters that are perfect for snorkelling and diving, as well as golden beaches for relaxing on.
