Swaziland is one of the smallest countries in the south east of
Africa. She is landlocked and shares borders with Mozambique to
the east and South Africa to the north, south and west.
Swaziland has a population of approximately 1 million people and
there are two official languages which are SiSwati and English
which is widely spoken. Swaziland has a thriving tourist
industry in part due to its natural beauty and established
transport infrastructure.
If you want to travel to Swaziland, it is advisable to do so in
May to August when the temperatures are high during the day and
low during the nights in June and July. The warm months are from
October through April during which most rain falls in heavy
thunderstorms. Travel to Mbabane and pop in for a meal. The
restaurants here have an excellent selection of dishes and a
good level of service. Some of the foods include seafood
especially prawns cooked in Portuguese style, meat stew, maize
meal, stamped mealiest and roasted corn on cob. There is a good
selection of spirits, beer and wines. In the main centre of
Mbabane and Ezulwini Valley, there are nightclubs and discos,
some with live music and cabaret. The Sun Hotels are the place
to head in the Ezulwini Valley for discos and bars. The main
attraction in Ezulwini Valley is the casino at the Royal Swazi
Hotel.
There is also a cinema that is visited by many tourists. Roads
in Swaziland are quite good and a lot of upgrading has been
taking place around Mbabane. How about visiting the
international airport, Mustapha in Mazini? You can travel
anytime since most of the road transport including taxis is
available 24 hours.

Lodges, hotels, guest houses, backpacking lodges and camping
parks are found in the cities and game parks. Hotels tend to be
expensive and finding a room in the rural areas can be
difficult. These hotel rooms will provide private bathrooms and
toilets, air conditioners, satellite TVs and a private doctor.
They range from cheap to costly 5 star hotels depending on your
pocket. Accommodation is available and is distributed throughout
the towns.
There are various attraction sites in Swaziland, many of which
have boosted the economy of this country since many tourists
visit them frequently. How about Mililani which is a wildlife
sanctuary and Swaziland's most accessible and popular wildlife
parks? It is close to the Ezulwini Valley tourism hub and only
25 minutes from either Mbabane or Manzini. It is a very special
destination with plenty wildlife, serene and scenic areas.
Another is the Hlane Royal National Park which is home to the
largest herds of game in the Kingdom. Head for the bush and
experience the sights and sounds of Africa in this serene and
exquisite park. You will wake up to sounds of lions roaring and
enjoy intimate game-viewing experiences on foot, by Landover or
a personal car drive.
What about Swaziland’s music festival which is a celebration of
the performing arts featuring an awesome array of local and
international artists? There is also the most popular reed dance
which is attended by many tourists from all over the world.
Visit Shewula Mountain Camp which is situated in a stunning
location overlooking the Lubombo Conservancy. Scenery, nature
and community interaction are its main
attractions. There is so much on offer in
Swaziland for you to sample.
