Boat Safari Liwonde National Park Tour

One of the great advantages of a number of Malawi’s National Parks and Wildlife Reserves, is that, as well as the usual safaris taken riding in a vehicle, and the thrill of getting out on foot for a walking safari, there are stretches of river which allow for boat safaris. Game viewing from a boat can be extremely successful as many animals are less concerned about what’s close to them on the water than what’s close to them on the land. They will happily go about their business whilst largely ignoring any safari boats that drift by. As well as being able to get close to the large crocodiles and pods of hippos that spend their days in or close to the water, and the riverine birdlife, boat safaris will also give great sightings of the animals on the riverbanks. Much of the wildlife will come down to the river to drink , or graze on the fertile plains not far from the water’s edge. And the elephants, particularly the young male bulls, enjoy playing in the shallow waters near the banks and will put on a great display for anyone on a boat safari along the River Shire.
