Adventure Caving is challenging, physical & only for the brave! Explore the unique Gobholo in the true speleological fashion with Swazi Trails. Adventure Caving is ½ day excursion in the Mdzimba Mountains, near the capital, Mbabane. Options exist for first timers, as well as for filthy dirty pot-holing fanatics.

After belly crawls, body jams, crouches and rope-assisted scrambles, return to the surface and head to the Cuddle Puddle Hot Springs for drinks and snacks before heading back for dinner.

There are few places in Africa where you can cycle past herds of game on the seat of a bicycle. Enjoy a half-day excursion to Mlilwane Wildlife Sanctuary and get eye-to-eye with giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, warthog, kudu, nyala, waterbuck, blesbok, impala, hippopotamus and crocodile.

The Sibebe Challenge is a 3 hour guided hike right up the main face of this mountain of stone. Arguably the steepest walk in the world.

This is a 3-hour circular walk along a historic water aqueduct, which traverses the Nyonyane Mountain. Promises superb views of the Rock of Execution, Sheba’s Breasts, Lobamba Royal Village, Queen Mothers Residence, and the Mdzimba Mountain range.

Start in the Ezulwini “Valley of Heaven”, pass the King Sobhuza II Memorial Park, Houses of Parliament, National Church, National Stadium, National Museum, Lozitha Palace (home to His Majesty King Mswati III), the University of Swaziland and Matsapha. Explore the Manzini market, then on to House-on-Fire, Gone Rural, Baobab Batik and Zoggs. Thereafter, Lobamba, and then Ludzidzini, site of the annual Incwala, Umhlanga and Lutsango ceremonies. On to Mantenga Nature Reserve, a valley framed by the Rock of Execution to the south and the Sheba’s Breasts peaks to the north. Finish at the Swazi Cultural Village.

Depart from the Ezulwini “Valley of Heaven” to Mbabane. Continue north to Malolotja Nature Reserve and the Ngwenya Iron Ore Mine. Stop at Ngwenya Glass and then head down into the Komati River, with a stop at the Dragon’s Teeth. Crossing the new 110m high Maguga Dam wall the tour returns via winding back roads to Mbabane.

The tour then passes the massive Sibebe Rock monolith – Swaziland’s most famous geological feature, before returning to the Valley.

This unusual tour is totally unstructured. Where you go and what you do is entirely up to you and your guide. This gives you an insight into Swazi lifestyle and culture. We use this tour heading to arrange custom-designed tours to satisfy specific requests, or to cover once-off occasions like national ceremonies, traditional weddings and public appearances by His Majesty the King. Our guides are resourceful and enthusiastic and love doing something a little different, so if you want to go bathing in a hot spring, tracking down a relative in a long-forgotten cemetery or simply exploring photographic opportunities off-the-beaten track, we’ll try our best to give you what you want.

This a safe, but adventurous way of seeing Swaziland “backpacker style” using local taxi and bus transport to get around. Similar to the vehicle-based Taste of Swaziland Tour, this tour is totally unstructured. Where you go and what you do is entirely up to you and your guide to decide. Swaziland has a very reliable public transport system that gets around to most corners of the country. There is no better way to get a feel for how the local people go about their lives, than taking part in this fun excursion.

Hlane Royal National Park, within the huge Lubombo Conservancy in northeastern Swaziland, is held in trust for the Nation by His Majesty King Mswati III. This is the place where the hot still beat of Africa continues as it has for thousands of years. A network of game-viewing roads criss-cross the Park’s flat terrain, weaving between 1000-year old hardwood vegetation and shallow pans which attract great herds of animals during the dry winter months.

An exciting guided walk in Hlane Royal National Park. See white rhino, giraffe and many other species of wildlife on foot, followed by a visit to the Manzini Market.

Greens and fairways are in tip-top condition and challenging features include lakes, gullies thick with vegetation, out-of-bounds areas running close to fairways, wickedly sited bunkers (one of which is so steep that railway sleeper steps have been provided to facilitate access), swirling breezes and clusters of magnificent trees and indigenous plants.

Set in tranquil gardens overlooking the golf course with tremendous mountain views, the spa is a haven of peace and gentle efficiency. A central lounge offers guests the chance to relax and enjoy complimentary herbal teas, fruit juices and freshly sliced fruit. The lounge overlooks the stunning rim-flow indoor swimming pool which in turn has views of the rolling mountains. Specialist treatment rooms branch off from a high central foyer.
