On 28 December 2010 we crossed the border from Tanzania into Malawi.
Border Crossing – Tanzania to Malawi
Guys on motorbikes will choose you from Tanzania to the Malawi border. Right after having stamped into Malawi, waiting taxis will take you to Karonga about 40 minutes absent, possibly for a longer time depending on how several roadblocks you come across. There was 7 passengers furthermore driver crammed into our taxi.
Karonga
The Malawi border taxi dropped us at the bus station in Karonga. It was chaos with minivan hassling us to go in their vans to Mzuzu. We made a decision to get the bus to Mzuzu.
Mzuzu
The bus dropped us at the bus station in the centre of town. We stayed at the CCAP William Koyi Visitor Residence which is peaceful, low cost and centrally positioned. We stayed a few of days when we bought cashed up just before going to Nkhata Bay as the manual ebook reported there was nowhere to get income (but there is).
Nkhata Bay
We caught a minivan to Nkhata Bay. We stayed in the new air conditioned rondavels at the Chikale Beach front Resort which has a moderately priced cafe. We also had a pair of meals at the cafe at the Njaya Lodge up the hill. Though the guide textbooks have a tendency to rave about Njaya Lodge lodging, it is simple at most effective. Chikale Seashore is about a 40 minute stroll to Nkhata Bay. Finest to choose a taxi when arriving and departing with baggage. The drinking water at Chikale Beach front is warm, obvious and cleanse with a good sandy beach front with no little snails like we encountered at Cape Maclear. There is an ATM at Nkhata Bay.
Senga Bay
Why Senga Bay is referred to as a seaside vacation resort region is over and above us. Nhkata Bay and Cape Maclear are so a great deal better. We stayed 1 evening at Wamwai Beach Lodge in a incredibly hot area (shared services) with a clunky admirer. It is proper beside the fishing village and the region is incredibly chaotic with a seaside that is dirty with tons of garbage. The accommodation is incredibly spread out more than numerous kilometres and there is only neighborhood bicycle taxis. If we had regarded what it would be like, we would have stayed on the bus. The bus depot is at Salima and from there you have to acquire a one cab utility (about 30 minutes) to the Senga Bay location.
Liwonde
We ended up shelling out a evening in Liwonde 2 times. Equally occasions by incident and not by design, many thanks to the minivan motorists. There is almost nothing right here apart from a transportation hub and the Liwonde Countrywide Park. As we experienced been to the Serengeti Countrywide Park in Tanzania this was of no interest to us.
Mangochi
We caught a minivan from Liwonde with a indication to Monkey Bay. Surprise! It was only likely as considerably as Mangochi. The driver told us to modify and claimed the single taxi utility would take us to Monkey Bay and it was only a 5klm generate. We climbed into the again of the packed utility. Just immediately after leaving city I found a road signal displaying it was 60klms to Monkey Bay! We had to stand in the scorching sunshine all the way and the woman up coming to us experienced a hessian bag of moist fish which was oozing smelly gunk onto the flooring.
Monkey Bay
All transport terminates right here. It is a little dusty town of no interest. From below you capture a single cab utility to Cape Maclear which will take about 30 minutes more than a bumpy street.
Cape Maclear
We used a number of soothing days at Mgoza Lodge which has a number of ensuite cabins facing the beach front and is peaceful. The homeowners are quite pleasant and the food items they serve is excellent too. Regardless of getting our malaria medicine Gavin however caught malaria. The owner despatched Gavin to the area clinic which is staffed with European medical practitioners who gave him specific antibiotics which cleared up the malaria inside 3 days. We discovered the shoreline was protected with 1000's of little snails which were being continuously staying washed ashore and decided not to go into the h2o.
Border Crossing – Malawi to Mozambique
Despite signs indicating the minivans goes from Liwonde to the Mozambique border they will only consider you to Mwanza. From there you have to choose a 2nd minivan to Zobue on the border. In Zobue guys with vehicles will get you to the Mozambique border publish for a little rate (they wait though you get stamped out of Malawi). The distance concerning the 2 border posts is about 8klms. Just prior to you attain the Mozambique border put up, the automobile will decide on up a funds changer. The guy gave us a fantastic level as Gavin experienced checked the web for the present-day trade level.
Transportation
To prevent the hassles we experienced with minivan drivers, get the bus every time you can (often this is not probable). You may possibly have to hold out about but feel me it is significantly better as it will actually consider you to wherever you want to go!
