Eswatini (Swasiland) 1-tägige Landtour ab Maputo

We had a great one day cultural tour to Eswatini, which is a very beautiful country so even if we spent many inevitable hours in the car, we could really enjoy the view. During a short stay in Hlane national park we saw wildebeest, hippos and impalas. Then a nice traditional dance show combined with a waterfall and then lunch in an amazing setting. This tour is a must and our great driver, Ofiço, made sure that our time on the road was as safe as possible. We strongly recommend this tour!

What a fantastic day! I could not have asked for a cooler or nicer guide than Miguel. He was very informed about what was going on and yet chill! It was a great combo, and, if I had the opportunity, I would spend another day with Miguel in a second! There were many parts of the day that I loved --especially doing to the cultural center and the candle shop/crafts "compound". I'm an artist-type so seeing the art and culture up front and close like that was memorable and valuable! The lunch they provide is amazing (and they give you a lot of choices of what you'd like to eat). The food was very tasty and the restaurant was in a lovely, scenic, outdoors location. Something that is extra nice about going with Miguel is that he goes so frequently to Eswatini, that it seems like "everyone" knows him (from the people at the border to the people at the centers and stores we go to). That helps. I was afraid of having a difficult time at the border because of a single entrance (only) Visa, but the company prepared me for what I needed to bring and then Miguel executed the "plan" with perfection. We passed the border in 20 minutes, almost like there was no Visa issue at all. It's because Miguel had instructed me beforehand exactly how to act and what to do (and not do). He is REALLY smart (and cool). I honestly could not have asked for a better tour guide or a better overall day. This was the PERFECT end to my 2-weeks in Southern Africa! And despite the fact that --being a solo traveler-- the trip was a little costly (especially since I am mostly a student right now), it was worth every cent and I would do it again in a heartbeat! Moreover, even though I travel alone A LOT and am considered a seasoned traveler by some, I never would have been been able to --on my own-- put together the package that the company and Miguel gave me of Eswatini! And I have a lot of experience putting together personal packages. Thank you again Miguel for such a great day and for many great memories of Eswatini & of how cool Mozambican people are. You bring a lot of joy and happiness to people's lives. Obrigada a si, à Maputo Tours, e à Viator for a memory I'll carry with me forever ; )

Wirklich schöne Tour! Miquel war super pünktlich zur Abholung am vereinbarten Ort. Er sprach zur Überraschung sogar sehr gut deutsch! Es war wirklich ein schöner Ausflug, wie mit einem Freund. Ja die Fahrt ist lang, aber es gibt immer etwas zu sehen und zur Not kann man auch schlafen. Eine tolle Überraschung war die kleine Safari mit Giraffen, Nashorn und Nyala-Antilopen. Am Ende war noch etwas Zeit und wir haben einen sehr schönen Rundgang in Maputo gemacht. Ablieferung am vereinbarten Ort, besser geht es nicht! Die Tour lohnt sich auf jeden Fall, auch wenn sie etwas teurer ist! Noch ein kleiner Hinweis: An den kleinen Landgrenzen erwarten die mozambikanischen Grenzer eine kleine Aufmerksamkeit. Am besten irgendwas gleich griffbereit haben (Schokolade, Gummitiere, Kekse aus der Heimat), dann spart man sich die Überreichung von Bargeld! ;)
