Excellent and affordable safari
5/5

I booked a Trip from Lilongwe to South Luangwa via Misuku expedition. The tour was excellent and good value for money. There were other operators in the same price range, but Misuku was way more flexible when it came to dates. They tailor-made the tour for me and also helped me extend my stay as I found South Luangwa very interesting and wanted to stay another night. I will definitely use Misuku again next time I travel to Malawi.

flexible, honest, exceeded expectations!
5/5

Misuku Expeditions were fantastic. They responded quickly to all communications and were very kind and flexible with any special requests we had. They drove us to South Luangwa National Park in a comfortable, air-conditioned van. The border crossing was seamless. They booked us a wonderful place to stay which far exceeded our expectations . They checked in with us periodically to make sure everything was going well. They let us decide on leaving times, etc. They were the least expensive operator we could find, and yet the experience was even better than our last safari experience, (when we used a different, more expensive operator). Definitely recommend going with these guys!

Wonderful experience, great communication, and seamless transaction!
5/5

I thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Misuku Expeditions. I had a group of 4 people (in Lilongwe, Malawi) trying to book a last minute Safari to South Luangwa Park in Zambia for 4 days. We were all ex-pats living in Malawi and we do not speak Chichewa. After failed communication attempts with other lodges and misrepresented information with other booking services, our friend recommended Misuku! I emailed Johnnie late in the evening and had a thorough response before I even woke up the next day. It was the first Safari for everyone so we had a lot of questions! Johnnie responded to all of my/our questions promptly via text. They found us the perfect arrangements (lodging) that fit our budget, provided door-to-door transportation, and took care of all the little details for us! Since Misuku works with a variety of different lodges on a regular basis, they were able to seamlessly set up 4 game drives with no problem. We witnessed others at the lodge that tried booking everything al la carte and things did not run as smoothly for them. I don't think this reflects on the lodge as much as it demonstrates that language barriers, cultural differences, and not understanding the 'lay of the land' can contribute to confusion. Thus having a team of people who do this on a regular basis was essential to us having an exceptional experience. All to say, we had a great experience and paid a very reasonable price for all of the services. We all would highly recommend Misuku to anyone looking to go on Safari! Thank you again!

Perfect
5/5

I booked a tour to South Luangwa NP and it was absolutely perfect. Everything went smoothly and I didn’t had to worry about anything during my stay. The driving was excellent as well and no other company could give that trip for a better rate as well!
Just can recommend booking with them :)

Johnnie & team took us to Croc Valley and Cape Maclear - very reliable, very good driving,
5/5

We booked accommodation in Croc Valley, South Luangwa, Zambia and in Cape Maclear, Lake Malawi. We flew in to Lilongwe and needed road transfers to South Luangwa and Cape Maclear. The game lodge recommended Misuku Expeditions. I booked the transfers by email (from South Africa) and the correspondence with Johnnie was very efficient. We were 6 friends and were accommodated in a mini-van. Punctuality was very good. Johnnie & his team are responsible drivers and we felt safe travelling with them. He also made the border crossing easy for us, explaining the procedures at the Malawi and Zambia border posts. Their part in our holiday made a big contribution in the very special time we enjoyed at both South Luangwa and Cape Maclear. We would definitely recommend this company to anyone needing to arrange long distance transport between Malawi and Zambia. The cost was reasonable.

I was driven from Lilongwe to South Luangwa Game Park by Johnnie Kabwilo of Misuku Expeditions
5/5

I had already booked a safari and needed transport to and from the game park in South Luangwa, Zambia, from Lilongwe. The game lodge recommended Misuku Expeditions. I booked the travel by email travel from the UK. My plans changed slightly but this was no problem - I had immediate replies to my emails and my changes were accommodated in a very friendly helpful way. Punctuality was excellent. The drive was in an almost new, comfortable saloon car and the driving felt reassuringly safe. Johnnie is very knowledgeable and was an interesting companion on the journey and answered all my questions about Malawi, game parks etc. He also made the border crossing easy for me, explaining the procedures at the Malawi and Zambia border posts. My trip exceeded expectations and I would definitely recommend this company to anyone needing to arrange long distance transport between Malawi and Zambia. The cost was very reasonable. If I hadn't already booked the game lodge I would have been happy to let Misuku Expeditions arrange it for me.
