This 8 hour tour was the absolute BEST to learn so much about eSwatini. And my guide, Sam, was incredible! We went to a school visited classrooms, had lunch prepared by a local family, visited museums, cultural historical sites, art studios, water falls, etc. It was an incredible day! So well worth it!
Samu was a great guide! We stopped at a supermarket first to buy some things to support primary school and its community. I loved school visit and talking to schoolchildren. We visited museum, Mantenga cultural reserve and waterfalls, and had lunch in a remote place with a local family. Fantastic way to experience Swati culture and interact with locals.
Great tour covering the aspects of traditions, culture, and landscapes of Eswatini. I had one full day in Eswatini and it was well spend with this tour.
I had a wonderful time on my Eswatini trip, and I highly recommend this agency. A special shout-out to my guide, Samu. He was incredibly responsible and attentive, which made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. I appreciate the flexibility in replacing the Umphakatsi Experience with the Mantenga Cultural Village due to the group size minimum. The village tour, the SiSwati traditional dance, and the waterfall viewing were all fantastic cultural highlights. The advice regarding gifts for the school visit was also very thoughtful. Samu helped me purchase food parcels and sanitary pads, making it a truly meaningful part of the tour. Overall, a well-organized and memorable experience! Thank you.
