Quick taste of eSwatini in 2 days - Recommended if you want a whistle stop tour of eSwatini in 2 days. Be warned, there is a lot of driving involved. Pieter is a good guide and can tell you a lot about the history of South Africa and eSwatini. On the first day you don't really stop anywhere until about 3pm where you get to Hlane Park, a game reserve. It's worth it - the safari drive there was great. You stay at the park overnight in a hut without electricity - it was really nice for one night. Food was good. On the second day I got up early for another game drive, which better still. You then drive on to see some traditional dancing and singing, which was fabulous. There is a guided tour of a traditional eSwatini home, complete with sufficient huts for two wives. You then drive on and stop at a candle factory and a glass factory. These are basically places where you can buy gifts to take home. The produce is really nice and is made there so you know it is helping the local economy. My only complaint was that I had to contact the operator a couple of days beforehand to ask whether the trip was going ahead, as I was travelling solo. I was told that to make it viable I would have to pay some more money. I don't mind that, but it would have been good if the operator had established contact first to explain the situation.

Unforgettable experiences and stories - I was very satisfied with the tour. That's why I also booked another trip with the same company. I gained a lot of unforgettable experiences and learned a lot of new things. The price-quality ratio is good and customer service is easily accessible. Thank you very much for everything!

A great overnight trip to Eswatini from Johannesburg - Did this trip with Pieter to eSwatini and it was brilliant. Pieter is such good fun and a very knowledgeable guy. I enjoyed the whole trip and I would definitely recommend Big Six Tour safaris. The overnight stay in Mlilwane Wildlife Sanctuary was brilliant and searching for the kings parties and residences was fun.

Excellent tour with a great guide - My experience with Pieter was fantastic. Communications were prompt and the tour was very well priced. He was already waiting for me when I arrived and the driving part of the trip flew by as we chatted a out all kinds of topics as well as lots of SA history. I'd certainly use Pieter for future tours.
