Swaziland prides itself on the warmth and friendliness that it extends to all its visitors. Indeed, the rural charm and ethnic culture of this small independent kingdom, crammed between South Africa and Mozambique, draws many travellers, especially those who come to enjoy traditional events like the annual reed dance at the Royal Kraal in Ludzidzini.

Swaziland is also famous for its arts and crafts, and it's impossible to leave without visiting - and most likely buying - some of the uniquely African crafts available here. Shop around for the well-known Swazi candles and the beautiful Ngwenya glass.

As one of the few absolute monarchies left in the world, ruled by King Mswati III, the Kingdom of Swaziland is renowned for its ceremonial culture.

There is a variety of accommodation available in Swaziland ranging from the well-known international hotel chains to smaller, more exclusive and intimate lodges.

Swaziland tours usually include the kingdom as part of a longer tour through South Africa.
