• Attend colourful Swazi festivals full of African dancing and singing that draw the nation together. During the Incwala, the king gives his people permission to eat the first crops of the season (December/January). Or in August/ September, see the Umhlanga (Reed Dance).
• Check out the rich cultural offerings at Lobamba, in the heart of the Ezulwini Valley. They include the royals' Embo State Palace, the National Museum, which has a traditional beehive village beside it, and a museum devoted to King Sobhuza, a revered Swazi king.
• Admire the exquisite detail on adorable products at the Ngwenya Glass Factory. Many are in the shape of African animals and birds, are made from recycled glass and are produced by highly skilled workers, who can be watched in action.
• Poke around the handicraft stalls amidst the hustle and bustle of Manzini's vibrant market. This is probably Swaziland's best place for crafts at bargain prices, so come prepared to negotiate.
• Drive around the lush and magnificent countryside - some of the finest in Southern Africa - including the verdant Ezulwini Valley, a miracle of nature, and the fertile Malkerns Valley, known for its scenic drive.
