Overview

Starting off in Durban, our tour heads up through the KwaZulu-Natal midlands, to the picturesque town of Underberg, where the real adventure begins! Our Sani Pass tour snakes up the mountain and takes you through a scenic valley along a crystal clear river, making for a breath-taking experience. Your personal Tour Guide will fill you in on all you can learn about the history of the pass and the surrounding area. Feast your eyes on the natural landscape that is dotted with many species of wildflowers, creating splashes of vibrant colour. The road itself is rough which is why only 4×4 vehicles are allowed to traverse it, but because of this and the hairpin bends, you are in for a fun and heart-racing trip!

Once you reach the top your senses will be filled beyond your wildest dreams – breathe in the fresh mountain air, drink in the sweeping vistas that are nothing short of majestic and enjoy this unique African experience in the ‘Kingdom of the Sky’.

Honestly, the views are spectacular, but our tour guide Mo, was outstanding. He was able to guide us through the region with so much knowledge and also taught us about South African culture. I cannot recommend this tour enough!!

Peter, our tour guide, was amazing. In the cultural village in Lesotho, we got to wear the Lesotho blanket attire, so beautiful.

This is my second time up the mountain with the same service provider and Roof of Africa never fails to impress. Our Tour guide this time was Nathi and he was amazing with a wealth of knowledge of Lesotho, taking us into the surrounding village to taste the steam bread. I genuinely would have liked for the trip to extend more to the Captial, perhaps next time. Booking with ROA was seamless, with constant communication that made the entire experience stress free. NOW THE RIDE UP AND DOWN THE MOUNTAIN: If you have this on your bucket list, then please do not hesitate, the sheer experience laying eyes on the magnitude of our landscape is breathtaking. The ride offers, small burst of adrenaline that will make you squeak in delight. When you get to the TOP, you understand that South Africa is truly majestic country. Thank you, Roof of Africa, for yet another well worth the 3 hours' drive it took us to get there.

This company has been great in all aspects. Firstly they have the best price possible and the best price you can find for the activity. Secondly, the agency answer ALL my long questions all the time, the guy who came for us in Durban was so nice ( Grant) I felt a real good and detailed service and the experience in Lesotho was great to have an introduction and a great peaceful and beautiful landscape. If someone want to include the itinerary from Southafrica and you are in Durban, you will be surprised of how great this experience is. Company is the best by far for this service and I asked all of them. Best price, amazing service. Impossible to fail. Thank you for all and listen to me so many times. You did your best.
