The Switzerland of Africa (combined itinerary)

Swaziland sits astride the Great Escarpment of southern Africa with dramatic mountain ranges in the west – the Afro-montane Highveld – falling to typical African bush in the west, haunt of kudu and white rhino. It’s a country of great beauty and diversity.

African Wildlife

The upland National Park of Malolotja has blue as well as the rare black wildebeest, along with other game like blesbok, rhebok and red hartebeest. In the deep recesses of the Komati Valley there are hippo and elephant, while in the Bushveld of the east there are rhino, zebra and troops of baboon along the Lubombo Mountains, bordering on Mozambique. The bird-life is among the most prolific in Africa, with over 400 species recorded.

Rich Heritage

Swaziland is the last of the traditional African kingdoms, with a long and distinguished history and culture, best seen at the Swaziland National Museum at Lobamba. Every year there are traditional festivals like Nqwala and the Reed Dance when everyone turns out in traditinal dress.

Why not include Swaziland as part of your South African safari ... and its just a drive away from Mozambique
