Who's behind this Liwonde guide?

What this site is

A guide to Liwonde written by no-one with a booking to make. Malawi publishes no national park tariff, so we work from the park's own rate sheet and say clearly when a figure could not be confirmed.

How we handle missing figures

Park fees come from the park's own published rate sheet, not from copied operator pages, and the fees page shows when we last checked it. That matters here: the entry fee went to $30, and much of the internet still quotes $25 or even $10. We also tell you what the official sheet actually says about how fees are counted, because the wording differs from what most guides repeat.

Malawi publishes very little, and we mark every one of those gaps rather than papering over them. Nobody has published predator counts since the reintroduction years, Mvuu publishes no rate card, and Malawi has no national park-fee gazette, so in each case we tell you that and show our best available source. Wildlife likelihoods are labelled as calibrated judgement, not fact.
