Beautiful nature

I would like to rate this day trip 6 out of 5, 11 out of 10. We spent 11 hours with fantastic guide Dave, but all that time went like a moment. Instead of being tired after such a long tour - I felt more energy than when we started. Nature around was so amazing and breathtaking, one of the best landscapes I saw in my life. Thank you Dave for this wonderful day!

Don’t hesitate! Booooook

Had an awesome time with Kyro as our guide for a day trip in Swaziland. It was a long car ride but with Kyro, it was a breeze. Divulging his vast knowledge from history to forestry, we learned a lot and laughed a lot as well. I personally was just collecting words to look up later and use so I can sound smart like Kyro. But enough about him- the tour was very interesting. We stopped at the glass factory and though it was a weekend n we didn’t see the actual workings of the place, their products were nice and we bought a few souvenirs. Then we head to the cultural center where you learn about tribal life. Twas very very interesting and eye opening. Tip: wear a mask coz cow dung and animal hide drying. Then they performed traditional dances and in the end two in our group were asked to participate. Twas really fun! This was the highlight of the trip. Then we went to a candle sculpting factory where they demo in less than 5 min they can make any animal. So talented! Also lunch was included and was very tasty. Then home we went. All in all, it was a great intro of Swaziland. If you can, I’d stay a night or two here, longer if you have the time. If not, book with Kruger Flexi Tour and ask for Kyro!

Much to learn and enjoy about Eswatini!

Very enlightening look into beautiful Swaziland and the life of it's people! Thoroughly enjoyed the sights, nature, and especially the cultural village tour with the song and dance performance. Our guide, Dave, was especially kind, humorous, and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone.

Day Tour of Swaziland/Eswatini

This was a day trip to Swaziland (Eswatini) from Nelspruit/Mbombela. On the tour you get to see a candle making factory, a glass blowing factory, markets, and a cultural village, among other sites. The tour was approximately twelve hours, but this is unavoidable due to the amount of driving you need to do to get there. This was a great tour as Dave was an excellent and very knowledgeable guide. He was quite the character, very funny and great to talk to. He made us feel comfortable the whole way through, and kept us up to date with the plan. There's no way we could have done this tour this way on our own, so I highly recommend this tour if you're staying around Nelspruit/Mbombela and want to check out Swaziland/Eswatini.

Super fun day trip to Swaziland

Today we had a super fun day to Swaziland. We were picked up early at our hotel and were already in Swaziland within 2 hours. The guide was very friendly. We laughed a lot with each other and he could tell a lot about the country. We went to the candle factory, glass factory and a village. Super fun day and well arranged.

Amazing cultural tour with an amazing guide

If I could give this tour more than 5 stars I would because it was excellent! A great way to actually experience and see some culture in this region beyond the standard fare of a safari and leaving. I have done a lot of trips through viator and Dave is genuinely the best guide I have ever had, I wish I booked more trips through him. You really can’t go wrong and I highly recommend this for anyone visiting

Wow Thanks such kind words, only doing what I love. Thanks Dave
