Located 25 km from Malawi's capital city, Lilongwe, Lilongwe International Airport (LLW) is your gateway to this beautiful and vibrant country. Known for its modern facilities and friendly service, LLW is the perfect starting point for your adventure. Whether you're travelling alone, with a partner, or with family, there's a rental car option to suit your needs.

Car Rental Stations at LLW

You will find a number of reputable car rental agencies at LLW. These include international brands such as Avis and Europcar, as well as local companies offering competitive rates. It's advisable to book in advance to secure the best deal and guarantee availability.

Car Class Recommendations

Considering Malawi's terrain and road conditions, especially if you plan to venture outside of Lilongwe, we recommend renting a mid-size to full-size vehicle, or an SUV for comfortable and safe transportation.

Refueling Your Car

There are several gas stations located near the airport and throughout Lilongwe, ensuring that refueling your rental car will be a hassle free task.

Getting from LLW to Your Destination

Lilongwe city center is a 30-minute drive via the M14 road. Remember to drive on the left side in Malawi. For first-time visitors, consider using a GPS or navigation app on your smartphone to ensure a smooth and enjoyable ride.

Climate

Malawi enjoys a tropical climate, with dry and cool winters (May to July) and warm, wet summers (November to April). Dress lightly but don't forget to pack a jacket for chilly evenings.

Local Currency

The Malawi kwacha is the local currency. Credit cards are accepted in most places, but it's a good idea to carry some cash for smaller transactions, especially in rural areas.

Exploring the Surrounding Cities

Once you're settled in Lilongwe, consider day trips to the surrounding cities of Mzuzu and Blantyre, or the beautiful Lake Malawi National Park. Your rental car will give you the freedom and flexibility to explore these gems at your own pace.

Enjoy your journey through Malawi with the confidence and convenience of a rental car. Safe travels!
