Our eco-luxury camps and lodges blend classic safari style with modern comforts, offering an authentic and sustainable experience in the heart of Malawi’s wilderness.

Power is provided through a solar system and two beautifully thatched hideouts offer a comfortable place to spend the night. The campsite is owned and managed by a Committee of local people from villages surrounding Majete, with assistance from the extension team of African Parks and the profits go directly to them.Shelter There are two purpose built wooden structures which can be hired out to keep off the sun or rain and offer some shelter.
