Authentic Safari Experiences

Our safaris aren't about resorts with golf courses and spas; we want to show you the beauty of a safari in the wild places of Malawi and the warmth of our people. As we were born and grew up right here in Nkhata Bay we are in a unique position to guide you through the culture, traditions and language of our country.
