Absolute Bucket List Highlight — Request Frank! Our guided tour up the Sani Pass with Sani Pass Tours was an unforgettable experience. Driving up this picturesque but dangerous mountain pass requires immense skill, and our guide, Frank, was exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, highly cautious, and kept us feeling safe every single metre of the way. Conquering the Sani Pass has been on our bucket list for years, and we can now happily cross it off. If you are planning this trip, we cannot recommend Sani Pass Tours and Frank highly enough!

The Sani Pass day tour was absolutely exhilarating and truly a bucket list experience in South Africa! I would highly recommend booking with Sani Pass Day tours if you want a seamless experience with incredibly knowledgable people who care about the community and the environment. Esme also gave us so many recommendations that made our trip unforgettable. Our guide was amazing and took us to so many beautiful viewpoints and photo stops along the way as well as spotted animals for us to observe. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience.

Sifiso was knowledgable and a good eye spotting animals miles away. We left promptly at 9 and the ride up the Drakensburg mountain was breathtaking. Lovely for thrill seekers too. It’s a once in a lifetime experience. Not much was done in Lesotho but the local pastor took us through the Basotho history and culture before we had a delicious meal. If you want a more in depth Lesotho experience in the country itself, this may not be the tour but definitely a beautiful start.

Wat een geweldige ervaring! Rijden over een weg die eigenlijk geen weg is. Geen moment onveilig gevoeld dankzij onze chauffeur en gids Patrick. Hij maakt deze trip extra bijzonder met zijn liedjes, wetenswaardigheden, zijn positieve vibe en liefde voor zijn eigen land en natuur.
