Mvuu Camp, Malawi


Mvuu Camp is situated just south of Mvuu Lodge on the banks of the iconic Shire River in Malawi's Liwonde National Park - the country's premier wildlife haven. The Shire River forms the western boundary of the Park and as a source of water it draws all manner of fauna to its banks. The camp is a clever mix of stone and canvas chalets and specially-designed family tents, totalling 12 units.

Location

Mvuu Camp is approximately 55 min flight from Lilongwe, 30 min from Blantyre, 20 min from Club Makalola and 75 min from Likoma.

Highlights

  • There are superb river cruises where guests may get close to wildlife and birdlife.
  • There is a black rhino reintroduction programme and it is possible (with special permission) to visit the Rhino Sanctuary in the Park, which also has reintroduced Lichtenstein’s hartebeest and buffalo.
  • Liwonde is a superb area for elephant, hippo and crocodile during the drier months in the middle of the year. Kudu, sable, impala, waterbuck and warthog are seen as well as serval, civet, mongoose and genets on night drives.

Honeymoon to Mozambique and South Africa during August 2010

South Africa Review

South Africa was spectacular - we loved seeing the city life of Capetown and then taking a short flight to Sabi Sands. We hope to be fortunate enough to visit one day again in the future.
