Tour Description
Mpumalanga, which means "land of the rising sun" is a province of extraordinary natural beauty. Forests, mountains, rivers, waterfalls and panoramic passes offer magnificent scenic views and the lowveld offers the visitor the opportunity to view wildlife in abundance.
The world-renowned Kruger National Park in South Africa offers a wildlife experience that ranks with the best in Africa and the world. Established in 1898 to protect the wildlife of the South African Lowveld, this national park of nearly 2 million hectares, is unrivalled in the diversity of its life forms.
The landlocked Kingdom of Swaziland offers the visitor the advantage of discovering a whole new country filled with bygone African traditions and culture. Swaziland is an exciting tourist destination with its art and craft outlets and traditional markets.
KwaZulu Natal offers the visitor an interaction of natural wonders, modern facilities, fascinating cultures and a rich history - in a breathtakingly beautiful landscape with a variety of settings.
The Hluhluwe-Umfolozi Game Park is well-known for the Big Five - lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard and rhino - and Zululand provides visitors with many opportunities to enjoy and share in the culture and history of the Zulu people.
