Mahamba Gorge slashes accommodation prices by 30%

Mbabane: As part of promoting domestic tourism and observing September as a tourism month, Mahamba Gorge has joined other hotels and accommodation areas across the country by dropping accommodation prices by 30 percent for the month of September.

This comes as good news for tourists who want to explore the Kingdom of Eswatini especially in the Shiselweni Region. Worth noting is that other accommodation areas have dropped down their prices by 50 percent.

The price drop comes after the launch of the domestic tourism campaign dubbed “A Wonder Awaits You, Explore It” by Eswatini Tourism Authority (ETA) which has seen many accommodation areas dropping their prices.

The Independent News spoke to Mzwakhe Khumalo, who is chairman of the board of trustees, who explained that the reason behind dropping the prices was to promote domestic tourism in line with the theme for this year’s tourism which says “Domestic Tourism for Rural Development.” He said most of the profits generated are invested back to the community as to many developmental projects as part of Corporate Social Investments (CSI).

Mahamba Gorge is the second largest gorge in Africa and remains a paradise of nature nestled along the Mkhondvo River which connects two mountains which are in between Eswatini and Piet Retief or Mkhondo being the nearest South African town.

In between the mountains is the Mkhondvo River with a cascading waterfall. This river flows from the Republic of South Africa all the way to Mozambique.

The Mahamba Gorge Lodge is an eco-tourism project which offers mid-priced lodging with refreshing and tranquilizing environment. This establishment has 2 types of accommodation namely rooms and camping. There are 3 chalets with 6 semi-detached self-catering rooms, 3 of which have 3 double beds and the other three has 6 single beds with 2 beds per room. The full capacity of the lodge may take up to 12 people.

On the other hand, a campsite where visitors can pitch their tents and enjoy a night of safari camping experience is also available.

Mahamba Gorge has always been home to outdoor enthusiasts who want to have picnics in a natural environment and others like to enjoy taking photos in the beautiful scenery.

Others enjoy booking a braai stand and enjoying a barbecue with friends and family. Others are interested in hiking the Mahamba Mountain in order to enjoy a closer look of the Gorge and other geographical features.
