It is one of the Malawi’s only private white sand beaches which provides guest with a superb, secluded retreat and wonderful views across Africa’s third water fresh lake. All chalets are en-suite with stunning lake views and are set in perfectly manicured gardens. This relaxed lakeshore lodge is a perfect retreat with a well-deserved reputation for warm hospitality and great facilities. Makuzi Beach Lodge is a perfect location for a romantic getaway or a family holiday.

As soon as you are done with breakfast, we will depart from Makuzi Beach and drive you over to Chelinda, an alpine experience, unique on the African continent.
Located high on the Nyika Plateau within Nyika National Park, Chelinda Lodge is nestled in the alpine highlands of Nyika National Park. It lies against a magnificent backdrop of rolling hills, isolated ridges with rich grasslands.
Warm clothing should also be carried as nights on the plateau get chilly.

Today you will do The Livingstonia Trail, which is a two-night/three-day hike comprising approximately six hours walking per day. The first day traverses the high plateau grasslands as far as the Phata Stream where camp is made.
The second day is a steep descent through the Mwenembwe Forest to the boundary of the Nyika National Park at Chakaka Village.
The third day is along the steep sided North Rumphi valley through Malawian villages where the people eke out an existence from the steep slopes. There is then a final ascent to Livingstonia.

After the hike you will go to Sangilo Lodge. Here you have two nights to recover and enjoy the beautiful northern lakeshore.
Nestled around a secluded cove on the Sangilo peninsula, the Sanctuary Lodge provides an idyllic escape to the lake in northern Malawi. The tastefully furnished cliff-top chalets provide a unique view along the peninsula, to Chilumba Island and across Lake Malawi to the magnificent Livingstonia mountain range in Tanzania.

All good things must come to an end! Your guide will drive you back to Lilongwe International Airport for your flight back home. End of Tour.
