Malawi, also affectionately known as ‘the warm heart of Africa’, measures just 45,747 mi2 – and it is quite incredible how diverse the country is.

There is Lake Malawi of course, the third largest lake in Africa, and with that comes remote islands, picturesque shorelines, and stunning sunrises and sunsets.

Then there are the mountainous grasslands of Mulanje, and Nyika and Zomba plateaus, not to mention the game-rich national parks and wildlife reserves!

Arguably, Malawi’s greatest asset is her people – always ready for a laugh, a little chat, and an impromptu song and dance, this easy-going and warm nature of Malawians is what makes this country one of the safest and most enjoyable places to travel in Africa
