Majete Game Reserve + Lakoma Island
Here’s how I spent a week in Malawi, splitting my time between Majete Wildlife Reserve and Kaya Mawa Resort on Likoma Island, blazing a starlit trail:
- Enjoyed Game Drives across Majete reserve – where I stayed in Mkulumadzi Lodge.
- Flew on a private plane from Lilongwe to Likoma Island, feeling like a VIP.
- Enjoyed biltong and wine at sunsets, chilling by lamplight with killer views of Majete Game Reserve and Lake Malawi respectively.
- Got schooled in a traditional Malawian game called Bao.
- Hopped on a ferry into town and checked out Katundu – this cool workshop that raises money for anti-poaching efforts and provides employment to locals, as part of our Imbeko partnership program.
- Grooved to some traditional dancing on the beach, feeling the rhythm of Africa.
- Checked out the famous cathedral church of St. Peter on Likoma Island.
- Scoped out Nkhwazi School, researching its serious upgrade requirements through my non-profit, Imbeko, which I write more on over here.
