Nkhoma Mountain

Reviewed By davidzJ3414RI

From Nkhoma the beginning is really easy to walk to a little plateau. When you start with the mountain the first half hour you can easily walk. The last half hour you have to use your hands often, but even for a not experienced hicker it is good possible to get to the top. Fro the top you have a STUNNING view!! With clear weather, early in the morning it is possible to see Lilongwe and even lake Malawi:)

Old Town Mall

Reviewed By V7593GYneilg - Southampton, United Kingdom

I am so pleased that I found the Old Town Mall before the end of my stay in Lilongwe. It was a place of calm where you could browse at your own leisure, in sharp contrast to the frenetic, and occasionally intimidatory, atmosphere of other shopping malls and markets in the capital. The quality and range of the goods on display, all with a local provenance, was excellent whether that was tourist souvenirs, local produce or even an old-fashioned bookshop. And don't forget to have a meal in the Veg-Delight restaurant.

Kuti Wildlife Reserve

Kuti Wildlife Reserve is located in central Malawi. This nation is known as ‘The Warm Heart of Africa’, both for its stunning beauty and friendly people. Kuti is home to a variety of animals native to this area. Although no dangerous predators live here, there are plenty of animals such as zebra, eland, monkeys, giraffe and a great variation of birds. The absence of dangerous game makes the park accessible on foot or by bicycle, which gives you a unique and up-close experience with the bush. ​ Besides sharing the beauty of nature, Kuti Wildlife Reserve is important for the local communities. We raise awareness about ecology and support community projects. By changing local perceptions of wildlife, we hope to preserve wildlife for future generations. ​ Visit Kuti and experience the unique tranquillity of the African bush!

Visited with family in May and friends in June. We love the self catering cottages here. Would recommend Sable as a great spot for a relaxing escape with family and friends. Well equipped, cosy units with a great outside Braai area. Definitely recommend booking a Bush breakfast. We've had these at different locations and loved the option of a morning cycle to the venu. The sunset deck is a spectacular spot for sundowners. We will definitely be back soon!
