AFRICA ATTRACTIONS

Mbabane & Ezulwini

Mbabane is the executive capital of the Kingdom of Eswatini, one of the smallest countries in Africa with the lowest life expectancy in the world. The main attraction is simply to witness the Swazi culture and way of life. Mbabane surprises for the organization and tranquility, captivating visitors by the friendly locals and the quality of craftsmanship. It is a base for discovering the interesting attractions of the kingdom, which include safari, nature and cultural experiences, always in a safe and friendly environment.

The neighboring Ezulwini Valley is home to the best hotels in the region, with festive casinos and spas, as well as the historic town of Lobamba, the wild sanctuary of Mlilwane and the famous Ngwenya handicraft and glass cooperatives. Witnessing the artisanal production of the kingdom's export articles is an experience of interaction with the locals, allowing a real slowdown in modern life. The combination of these factors justifies the attraction that tiny Swazi nation has on visitors from all over the world.

Highlights


Culture

Each region of Africa keeps alive the ancient traditions of its ancestors. Political borders do not define different ethnicities, each one with its own language, culture, art and history. In the last century, neocolonialism has created a traumatic clash of civilizations: in many cases, the African cultural heritage has merged with European traditions. The result has not always been positive, but it can be thoroughly investigated in each African destination.
