E very reliable and well organized company to rent 4x4 vehicle for self-drive tour
We got a hint about Land&Lake Safaris rental service from our friend, who rented from them last year. The communication with them was excellent from the very start. The only glitch was a bank transfer payment for a car deposit - the money didn't arrive to their bank account for almost a month. But I guess this was not their fault, it was a problem in the banking communication system. In the end, the money appeared in their account after all.
We got a Toyota Hilux, with full camping equipment. The car was an older one, with quite a lot of history, but it was in perfect condition. Very clean (including the engine bay), with excellent tires, and all necessary roadworthy and recovery equipment. The camping equipment was also in excellent condition, including the roof-top tent. The car had a double fuel tank installed, which is a very important factor, due to frequent fuel shortages in Malawi. The car handover and the return procedure were fast, and executed very professionally.
We didn't have any single problem with the car or its equipment during our three-week trip all over Malawi, so we will certainly rent from them again. I would warmly recommend Land&Lake Safaris to anyone looking for 4x4 rentals in that region.
Very supportive organisation
Land and Lake were very supportive in assisting us organising our own trip. All questions we asked were answered within a day and we were always invited to ask more. Our stay in their Dzalanyama Forest lodge was excellent, again with very helpful staff. I would recommend anyone planning to travel to Malawi contacting Land and Lake and will certainly do so myself for future visits.
Fantastic and full of wonderful people. Jim is a wonderful guide!
I went on the Kuti and the Lake tour and the Dedza pottery tour with Jim. I went solo because I was there on business, but Jim made it completely amazing! He knows so much about the area and is an expert birder. He is also quite good at spotting wildlife. I went in winter and it was quite nice. The grasses dried out and had either been burned or cut down making it easier to see the wildlife. I also loved the rock painting area and it was definitely a highlight of my trip! Thanks Land & Lake and Jim!
Great tour and amazing team!
Memory and her team were absolutely fantastic throughout the tour. Escorting 40 of us cycling from Lilongwe to Mulanje. Extremely knowledgeable, helpful and welcoming. Thanks for all the beautiful experiences!
The tour operator did a very good job in organizing a wonderful tour through Soutern Malawi for us
The organization of our tour through Southern Malawi was excellent and we enjoyed the journey very much. The communication with the office of Land & Lake Safaris was always good. We also made a very good experience with Vasco who turned out to be a reliable driver, competent guide and a kind person.
