Family travel to Lilongwe

by malawi2008

My family is planning to travel to Malawi early 2008. I am looking for affordable secure house to rent for a month or 2 while in Lilongwe? Anyone know how I can make such arrangements? Where can I find rental homes in Lilongwe for a family of 7? How about renting a van for a 3 month period? Any other places of interest you can recommend while in Malawi for a family trip?

Thanks
Dera

Hi, We went to Lilongwe back in February of this year as part of a tour group. We stayed briefly at a campsite in the middle of the town which was run by an English couple from Brighton, I'm sure they could probably help. Whilst in Malawi we visited a country lodge run by a guy from Hull who had lived in Malawi for 18 years. He had a site that had various activities available such as mountain biking, canoeing and some other activities with various types of accommodation available. As it is late now, I will try to dig out the info and re-email you with what I have.

Hi
I had a look through my stuff and unfortunately I do not have details of the campsite name or owners in Lilongwe. However the Outdoor Adventure Lodge I mentioned is at Luwawa, Viphya Forest, Northern Malawi, email: wardlow@malawi.net

Good Luck
Ricula

Lilongwe

Lilongwe is the capital of Malawi, and was one of the stopover points as we travelled through the country. It doesn't hold a whole heap of interest there. Mainly for me it was a chance to final check and send emails as I hadn't had a chance since Dar Es Salaam in Tanzania, plus my mobile had no service at all in Malawi, so email was proving to be my own way to let people know I was ok unless I wanted to go to a pay phone... Lilongwe become the country's new capital in 1975 and the best part to visit is the Old town & its markets.
