Mvuu Wilderness Lodge

Enjoy an unsurpassed Malawi safari at Mvuu Wilderness Lodge located on a hidden lagoon on the spectacular Shire River in the legendary Liwonde National Park. Game viewing by boat, 4×4 vehicle or on foot is an enormous highlight in this wilderness region, the best way to see majestic elephant herds, huge crocodiles and nocturnal birds, big cats and more. Venture out to a traditional village and experience the simplicity of village life. Relax in a hammock and observe wild animals as they congregate for a drink.

Mvuu Lodge is carefully constructed above the water for sheer magic views across the wilderness – guests love the telescope viewing, the wildlife library and their game rangers’ knowledge about all biodiversity in this region. Chill out in the refreshing swimming pool on its welcoming sun deck as wild animals roam the fertile floodplains below including hippos, Lichtenstein’s hartebeest, baboons and waterbuck.

 We highly recommend the Rhino Tracking Experience where you become part of something greater, joining the Rhino Protection Team on foot to track these majestic prehistoric creatures. Meeting the friendly local people is another adventure worth waiting for. 

Settle into riverfront chalets with solid timber beams and canvas walls, polished timber decks, stone bathtubs, outside showers and lavish décor. The river safari never disappoints, especially as the sun goes down over the water and the hippos grunt and wallow. Discover the wealth of wildlife along the banks, even a male lion or two, or a warthog grazing.  

Secure your Malawi adventure with Voyage2Africa to see the best wildlife in Liwonde National Park and to be part of Malawi conservation endeavours.
