Traveling through eSwatini (Swaziland) from KZN

[RogerFraser]

Hi all

Traveled the route through eSwatini to Kruger and used the road via Big Bend to Siteki last week .All roadworks completed and in excellent condition .There was roadworks on the road through Hlane near to Simunye they were cutting out large sections of tar to patch so should not take too long to complete those. Probably experienced more delays on the N2 Durban side due to the road closures from the flood damage .

Also a big bonus is fuel is about R5 a liter cheaper inside Swaziland .

Border staff were very friendly and no issues crossing with Vax certificates . I did forget the no meat or dairy coming back through as I had some leftovers due to large storm one evening and the guards did point out I should not be carrying it but let me go as I explained I was only transiting through .

Hi Ricky

Welcome to the Forum.

The roads are all now in excellent condition around Big bend the entire road has been replaced .There was a bridge washed away in Sumunye with a detour of 500 meters in February floods but by our last trip in May they are already working on fixing that and I suspect by now it is all fixed .

Enjoy your trip.
