What is Travellers’ Choice?
Tripadvisor gives a Travellers’ Choice award to accommodations, attractions and restaurants that consistently earn great reviews from travellers and are ranked within the top 10% of properties on Tripadvisor.
Venture beyond the iconic Sani Pass to explore remote Basotho villages and historical sites. Enjoy intimate cultural exchanges with the locals, including visits to traditional homes, a meeting with a local healer, and the chance to witness ceremonial dances. Stop at Black Mountain (3,240m) to enjoy panoramic views of Africa's second-highest peak, Thabana Ntlenyana, and visit the secluded villages of Mokhotlong and Makhapung. Kindly Note: Prior reservations are essential in order to have lunch at the Highest Pub in Africa during the tour. Unfortunately due to the lodges limited capacity entry is granted only to guests that will be eating with them, this also means that the lodge is unfortunately unable to accommodate guests who wish solely to have a drink, use the WIFI, or restrooms.

 Alternatively we offer our guests the option of either having lunch at a lovely local Basotho restaurant, or feel free to bring along your own snacks and drinks for in the vehicle while on the tour.

      The whole experience going up Sani Pass was absolutely amazing. The visit to the Lesotho Village was fascinating.
      We had an incredible experience with Njabulo on our trip into Lesotho. From the moment we started he made us feel welcome. Njabulo was extremely knowledgeable about the history and cultural of the area. He stopped whenever we asked him which was a lot, as we love taking photos. He also has a great sense of humor. I highly recommend this tour operator and Njabulo as your guide. The Fortuner was luxurious and comfortable. Thank you Njabulo for making this an unforgettable day.

      Amazing!!!
      We did the extended tour Sani pass and Lesotho yesterday, and was amazing! The tour is very well organized, the car is super comfortable, and our guide Martin was amazing. Martin was extremely helpful, kind, and an excellent driver. Visiting the Mokhotlong area is definitely worth it—an eye-opening experience of the reality and life there. The customer support via WhatsApp worked very well and they were super friendly and helpful too. We loved the experience and our guide, Martin! Thank you very much for this unforgettable experience. Highly recommend it—100%!

      Great tour
      The tour was great and our guide Njabuio was the best! He told us all about the history of the Sani pass and answered all our question. We had lunch at the highest pub and it was great. Thanks for this great experience :)
