The landlocked Kingdom of Swaziland is
surrounded on the north and south by South
Africa, and on the east is bordered by
Mozambique.
The Kingdom provides travellers the ideal gateway between
KwaZulu-Natal and
the Kruger National Park, as well as Johannesburg and Maputo - no better route is
available with added advantage of discovering a whole new country filled with bygone
African traditions and culture.
Swaziland covers an area of approximately 193 kilometres from
north to south, and 145 kilometres from east to west.
Small as it may be, Swaziland is an exciting tourist destination with its
art and craft outlets and traditional markets and
wildlife reserves. At
Mlilwane
Game Reserve tame birds and animals are free to come and go and wander through
the camp grounds. Mkhaya Game Reserve offers visitors the
opportunity of game viewing by open Landrover with guides.
A major attraction for the visit to Swaziland is the casinos located at the
Royal Swazi Sun Hotel complex, in the heart of the Ezulwini
Valley, between
Mbabane and Manzini.
Swaziland offers many scenic drives. North of Mbabane, the road to Luve is
known as Pine Valley with a series of waterfalls on the Black Umbeluzi River and the
granite heights of "Bald Rock".

The drive to
Piggs Peak, in the north is one of
the most scenic in the country. The Malolotja Nature Reserve lies to the west of the road
and here, after a stiff walk, you can view the Malolotja Falls, the highest in Swaziland.
Swaziland also hosts a large number of internationally renowned hotels and a number of
thermal springs where visitors can relax and unwind, like the Spa at the
Royal Swazi Sun.
