6 Days Eswatini Wildlife Safaris
Eswatini is a Big 5 destination, with lions and elephants in Hlane royal national park, and both black and white rhino in both Hlane and Mkhaya game reserve. Game drives are very rewarding, but there are also opportunities to safari on horseback, mountain bike, or on foot, if you want to get up close and personal. This even applies to the rhino, which can be tracked on foot – one of the most thrilling safari experiences there is. But, in Eswatini it’s not all about being big, with some rare species of smaller flora and fauna to be discovered. As for the bird-watching, the variety of species found across Eswatini’s varied habitats matches that of the much larger Kruger Park just to the country’s north.
