Taxi in Liwonde

Liwonde is where most visitors to Malawi see their first elephant. The national park along the Shire River is the country’s premier wildlife destination, and the town at its edge exists largely to serve it.

From Blantyre the drive is about two hours, which makes Liwonde a comfortable day trip as well as an overnight destination. We drop guests at the park gate or directly at Mvuu, Kuthengo and the other lodges, coordinating with the boat transfer where the lodge requires one.

Liwonde also sits on the main route between Blantyre, Zomba and the lakeshore, so it appears regularly as a waypoint rather than a destination. Either way, the fare is quoted door to door before you travel.

Whichever journey you need, the next step is the same. You can book a Liwonde taxi online in about a minute, arrange an airport transfer to or from Liwonde with your flight number so delays are covered, or read how our fares are calculated before you commit.
