Accommodation in Malawi: Mvuu Wilderness Lodge & Camp, Liwonde
The upmarket lodge has a lounge, bar and dining area plus eight luxury Hemingway-style tents with en-suite bathroom and private deck, discreetly concealed in thick undergrowth bordering a lagoon just off the Shire River. A short distance away, the somewhat simpler Mvuu Camp has 12 chalets with river views. Both offer game drives, walking safaris and boat trips. A well-sited hide overlooks the river so you can see animals as they come to drink in the heat of the day. The immediate vicinity offers excellent birding.
