Limpopo is named after the Limpopo River that flows through the province and borders Mozambique, Zimbabwe, and Botswana. It’s home to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Mapungubwe, South Africa’s first kingdom. Limpopo offers stunning landscapes including the majestic Waterberg mountain range, lush forests, and breathtaking views. Kruger National Park is also part of the Limpopo Province, but there are more beautiful places to visit in Limpopo. In this Limpopo travel blog, I will share the best places to visit in Limpopo on a 3-week safari itinerary, starting and ending in Johannesburg because of the location of the OR Tambo International Airport.

The Kingdom of Eswatini, formerly known as Swaziland, is a landlocked country between South Africa and Mozambique. Most travelers that visit Eswatini, use this small Kingdom as a shortcut to get from Hluhluwe (KwaZulu-Natal) to Kruger National Park in South Africa or vice versa. That’s totally understandable as it’s the fastest route, plus you get a glimpse of a different country and a new passport stamp.

However, since I recently explored Eswatini on a 6-day itinerary, it’s fair to say that the Kingdom of Eswatini is surprisingly amazing and well worth it to spend more time than only passing through.

Planning a trip to Lesotho and wondering how to stay connected? In this guide I explain everything you need to know about buying a prepaid SIM card in Lesotho in 2026 and compare it with the best eSIMs for Lesotho.

I traveled to Lesotho, read all about it in my Lesotho travel blog, as part of my journey to visit every country in the world and quickly realized that getting connected here is not as straightforward as in many other destinations.

Most travelers enter Lesotho overland from South Africa and there is no reliable place to buy a SIM card on arrival. SIM card kiosks at border crossings are rare and often not functioning, and even if you find a small phone shop along the road there is no guarantee they have SIM cards for tourists available or that the system is working.

A step back in time, but a great one! Lesotho travel is still super authentic and life out there in world's highest country is extremely laid back. The scenery is absolutely amazing and the people very friendly and happy to see tourists. Visiting Lesotho was a big surprise.

Little did I know about Lesotho before my visit. I knew that it was mountainous, but I had no clue that the lowest point of the country is at 1,400 m (4,593 ft.). Which makes it by far the highest country on earth, followed by Rwanda with a lowest point of 950 m (3,116 ft).
