Completely different to West Africa, the two short trips I've made there were both to the Lake - thats fun and has a load of activities. Can't help much more than that though.

Re: Malawi
You don't say where you are in Canada, but you can fly from there to Atlanta (US) and get a direct flight across into Johannesburg, with a puddle jumper commute from there. Friends of ours in Toronto have broken up their bookings as they found it cheaper to buy a ticket to the States, and then purchase the next leg into SA separately. Why it would cost more to simply do a full booking beats me.
