Deep within Nkhotakota Wildlife Reserve, where the Bua River winds through untouched miombo woodlands, Tongole Wilderness Lodge offers a safari experience unlike any other in Malawi.
Remote and wonderfully secluded, it’s a place where elephants wander through the trees, the river flows past your private deck, and the only sounds are birdsong and the rustling of the forest.
With just four open-fronted suites and a spacious family cottage, Tongole is designed to bring nature to your doorstep. Floor-to-ceiling views flood the space with natural light, while private decks, sunken stone bathtubs, and open-air lounges make every moment here feel like a fairytale.
Days are yours to explore - canoe along the river spotting kingfishers and hippos, track wildlife on foot, or simply slow down and soak in the stillness of this untouched wilderness.
With its deep commitment to sustainability and community empowerment, the lodge ensures that your stay directly supports local conservation efforts and the people who call this land home.
