Bushman's Baobabs

Top choice in Malawi


The former Chinguni Hills Lodge is a fun place to experience a night in the bush and a safari. In an accessible location in the south of the park, Bushman's offers 14-bed dorms, thatched A-frame tents, luxurious en-suite tents, en-suite chalets, and campsites with barbecue spots and a self-catering kitchen. Wildlife drives, walks, and boat and canoe trips are offered.

Climbing the viewing platform is a great start to the morning, and meals (breakfast/lunch/dinner are US$10/10/20) are sociable occasions at the long table. By night, the lounge bar and firepit are beacons in the velvety darkness, and you may hear elephants snuffling around. The delicious, home-cooked food, prepared daily, and the warm staff are further reasons to visit.

Transfers to/from Liwonde town cost US$5 per person. Safaris cost US$20 to US$35.
