Minette - OverlandingAfrica.com13 Apr 2012: Hi Gina, we only sell scheduled overland truck safaris and would not have an idea of the fuel situation in Malawi. To the best of my knowledge there does not seem to be any issues regarding Diesel availability in Malawi and you will find this at any fuel station. I recommend you contact the local tourism information center in either Blantyre or Lilongwe for more information. Happy trails!
Gina Poole12 Apr 2012: Hello, I would appreciate any advice about the current fuel situation in Malawi. We are driving to Mozambique starting from Nairobi this weekend and wanted to go through Malawi. Do you have any news about the availability of diesel. Thank you for your assistance. Your website is great! Best, Gina Poole
Minette - OverlandingAfrica.com24 Aug 2011: Hi John! Thank you for your interest in OverlandingAfrica.com. We only sell scheduled overland truck safaris and are not familiar with the performing arts in Malawi itself. Your best bet would be to contact the National Theater Association of Malawi for more information. Good luck!

Dayne - Overlanding Africa.com30 Nov 2009: Hi Joy, you will be able to obtain a visa for Malawi in Pretoria at their embassy. The Mozambican Consulate is however located in Cape Town. I suggest you check with each Consulate the current rules that apply to your visa requirements. Cheers Dayne
Joy29 Nov 2009: Hi there, I'm currently planning to travel to Malawi.I'll get to Johannesburg airport and thinking of getting a visa for Malawi there. But it looks like impossible to get a visa in Jo'burg. As a Korean national, isn't it possible to get it in Jo'burg? what about Mozambique? Can i get the visa somewhere in Mozambique? If yes, where can i? Look forward to hearing from you. Thanks in advance. -Joy
