Welcome
to the Kingdom of Swaziland
 Swaziland
is one of the smallest countries in the world, and the second smallest
in Africa (after Gambia) covering 17 360 square kilometres.
Squeezed between South Africa and Mozambique, and less than an hour’s
flight from Johannesburg, Swaziland is easy to combine with its neighbours,
but its variety of experiences and activities warrants very much more
than an overnight stop en route to Kruger Park (which is, incidentally,
an easy day trip from the western parts of the country). Above all, this
is a supremely safe, friendly and welcoming country.
The Kingdom of Swaziland is such a unique and different African country
still a traditional Kingdom – the culture is rich in Swaziland the
Kingdom also has a variety of other features that make it a special place,
for such a small country it has such a unique diversity of vegetation
- as you travel from North to South you pass all sorts of biospheres.
Highveld vegetation, midleveld, through to lowveld and the Lubombo range
– from Mountainous to flat thorny trees in less than 2hours drive!
Swaziland has fantastic wildlife opportunities too, for example Mkhaya
Game Reserve, which is a reserve set up purely for endangered species.
Not to mention Hlane Royal National Park and Mlilwane Wildlife Sanctuary
which each have their individual advantages – Hlane, the largest
protected area in Swaziland, has large game such as rhino’s, elephants,
lions, leopards and many more. Mlilwane has fantastic hiking, mountain
biking and horse riding trails – including the Rock of Execution.
At Mkhaya Game Reserve you’ll experience close encounters with game
– fantastic photo opportunities!
Swaziland is a very peaceful country and you will notice the difference
as soon as you pass through the border. There is far less crime and I
think this might be partly due to the fact that Swaziland never experienced
any tribal war fair within the Kingdom as there is only one Swazi tribe.
This must have encouraged a life of peace from the early beginnings of
the Kingdom, which still exists today.
English is commonly spoken in Swaziland and you can get by without having
to speak a word of siSwati – although being able to greet people
is always regarded very highly. Sawbona – hello Yebo – hello
back to you.
The Kingdom of Swaziland is so worth visiting as not only does the Kingdom
have so much to offer – and so close to JHB (350km) Durban (500km)
and is SO different – it is also cheaper than South Africa. A fantastic
weekend getaway: I can completely guarantee that you’ll have a great
time as we have so much to offer, for the outdoor enthusiast, those looking
for peace, quiet and tranquility in all types of accommodation for budget
to luxury. Horse trails, hiking, mountain biking, caving, rafting, abseiling,
bird watching, fishing and much more. Wildlife, culture and adventure!
