Swaziland
Eswatini (formerly known as Swaziland) is a hidden gem in southern Africa, offering an intimate glimpse into the continent's vast natural beauty and rich cultural tapestry. Despite being one of the smallest countries in Africa, Eswatini's landscapes are remarkably diverse, ranging from the lush peaks of the Lebombo Mountains to the vast savannas of the Lowveld. The country's commitment to conservation is evident in its well-managed reserves and parks, such as the Hlane Royal National Park, where visitors can embark on thrilling safaris to spot lions, elephants, and rhinos in their natural habitats. Additionally, the Mlawula Nature Reserve offers a serene escape with its picturesque hiking trails that wind through diverse ecosystems, offering breathtaking views and the chance to encounter a variety of bird species and wildlife.
Beyond its natural allure, Eswatini is a vibrant cultural hub that offers visitors an authentic African experience. The nation takes great pride in its traditions and heritage, best showcased during the annual Umhlanga (Reed Dance) and Incwala ceremonies, which attract thousands of spectators eager to witness the colorful and spirited performances that are central to Swazi culture. Artisans across the country craft intricate hand-made items, from woven baskets to intricate beadwork, reflecting the artistic prowess of the Swazi people. Eswatini's warm hospitality, combined with its rich cultural offerings and stunning natural landscapes, makes it a compelling destination for travelers seeking an off-the-beaten-path adventure that's rich in both scenery and tradition.

These three- and four-star hotel-based, "soft adventure" trips concentrate on the culture, history, and natural attributes of our destination. Though there are no strenuous activities built into these tours, you need to be prepared for some full days with some early starts, plenty of walking on uneven surfaces through villages, cities and archaeological sites, and not a lot of "down time." Independence, reasonable fitness, and an ability to be steady on one's feet are critical in order for you to get the most out of these programs.

Jonathan Hodgson
Jonathan has lived much of his life dedicated to the idea that he would rather have a wealth of experiences than a wealth of riches. Having taken up a nomadic lifestyle shortly after finishing his undergraduate degree, he has been on the move on and off over the last 25+ years. The wanderlust has taken him to basing himself in places such as Scotland, Australia and Uzbekistan, and to visiting many more locations around our planet. Now (sort of) settled in Vancouver with his wonderful (and patient) family, he still loves the idea of having the world as his office and always enjoys trying to capture the essence of the locations he travels and tours in with his photography.

I love the excitement of getting up each morning on a tour and not knowing exactly how a day will unfold. It keeps me on my toes so to speak, and adds a breath of excitement to each day on tour. With almost 30 years of tour leading under my belt, I thank all of you for being a part of this exciting journey.

FAVOURITE DESTINATION:
Some of my favourite tours just come into being suddenly as a result of a request; someone will ask me to put together an itinerary that will include the highlights of several countries and the next thing you know we have, for example, a tour to Uruguay, Paraguay & Bolivia, or Lesotho, Namibia & Botswana. Sometimes I will be asked to arrange a detailed itinerary to just one region within a country - like a close up look at Sicily or Crete or the Basque Country or Newfoundland. Without the keen curiosity that so many of you travellers have, none of these "spontaneous" tours would come into being. But they do.
Some of my favourite tours just come into being suddenly as a result of a request; someone will ask me to put together an itinerary that will include the highlights of several countries and the next thing you know we have, for example, a tour to Uruguay, Paraguay & Bolivia, or Lesotho, Namibia & Botswana. Sometimes I will be asked to arrange a detailed itinerary to just one region within a country - like a close up look at Sicily or Crete or the Basque Country or Newfoundland. Without the keen curiosity that so many of you travellers have, none of these "spontaneous" tours would come into being. But they do.
ABOUT:
I love the excitement of getting up each morning on a tour and not knowing exactly how a day will unfold. It keeps me on my toes so to speak, and adds a breath of excitement to each day on tour. With almost 30 years of tour leading under my belt, I thank all of you for being a part of this exciting journey.
