Durban: Resa längs Epic Sani Pass & Lesotho Tour
Beskrivning
Har du packat ditt pass? Du är ju på väg in i bergeriket. På 3 240 meter över havet kan det bli en smula iskall så slå dig in i en av våra autentiska Basotho-filtar som är din för dagen. Vårt första stopp är Himeville, vid berget av berget, där du klättrar upp i en robust 4x4. Dags att börja på den branta stigningen uppåt det natursköna och skrämmande Sani-passet. Få ditt pass stämplat vid gränsen och ta dig in till ingen-mans-land som förbinder Sydafrika till Lesotho. När du kommer in i Lesotho kommer din guide att introducera dig till en by i Basotho före en bucketlistlunch (egen kostnad) på Afrikas högsta pub. Dags att gå nerför berget för din åka tillbaka till Durban. RESEVISA - Resenärer måste kontrollera om de behöver resevisum för att komma in i Lesotho. Om du behöver visum är det ditt ansvar att skaffa dig det visum som krävs före turnén. Wild Routes Africa ansvarar inte på något sätt för någon resenär som vägras inträde i Lesotho.

Resplan
Himeville är den lilla staden vid basen av Sani-passet. Här besöker vi de lokala stallen där du kan besöka några av båsarna och hoppa på ditt 4x4-fordon för att tackla det skrämmande Sani-passet.
Detta är Sydafrikas mest episka och skrämmande bergspass. Det är i själva verket ingen mans land som förbinder Sydafrika till Lesotho, känd som "The Mountain Kingdom". Din guide kommer att navigera sig upp genom passet och stannar vid strategiska platser längs vägen som gör att du kan ta det hela in. Förvänta dig över käken som släpper ut och bergslandskap. Beroende på säsong kan terrängen gå från vita snöiga sluttningar till grönskande sluttningar. Lär dig mer om flora och fauna från din lokala guide såväl som insikt i historien och människorna i detta område.
Få ditt pass stämplade och gå in i den landlåsta Lesotho. Din första stopp är en liten by där du kommer in i en rondavel och träffar din lokala värd. Hon kommer att presentera dig kort för Basothokulturen och dela med dig något av det mest utsökta traditionella brödet. Om öl har förberett får du också chansen att smaka på det. Snabbtips: Det traditionella brödet går fantastiskt bra med den soppa som erbjuds på puben vi kommer att besöka nästa gång.
Välkommen till den högsta puben i Afrika. Bucketlist - kryssa för! Läs väggarna och njut av utsikten. Det är här vi kommer att njuta av lunch (resandes egen kostnad). Smaka på ölet och värm upp om det är vinter. Det finns också en WiFi-hotspot här så låt det räkna.

Epic day with Kyran and Sia. Loved the scenic drive through the Sani pass and up into the Kingdom of Lesotho. It was an incredible day filled with fun and good memories.
Thank you so much for your awesome review! We’re thrilled to hear that Kyran and Sia made your Sani Pass adventure so memorable. It sounds like a truly epic day — we’re so glad you enjoyed the scenic drive and all the fun along the way!
It was very cold up there. For tall people the seats of the 4x4 are inconvenient. The landscspe is breathtaking. The guide Peter was very good we felt very comfortable with him
excellent from pre-trip communication to hotel pick-up and drop-off - David (driver to/from Underberg) was pleasant and Peter (driver to/from Lesotho) was very knowledgeable point out things of interest en-route - it was a long day but well worth it (especially if the weather is kind which was unfortunately not the case on the day we took the trip)
Thank you so much for spending the day with us and your incredible review!
Apologies for the delay meant to get this to you sooner. The communication from the get go was amazing having attempted to do this tour in August of 2018 we were unable to make it to Lesotho so I said when in Durban for the rugby I would make an effort to make the tour. Quick Google led me to Wild Routes the website the feedback and all that's in between made me feel assured and comfortable on booking this trip. Not to go into too much detail but my experience with another company wasn't as pleasant and straight forward. My schedule was tight but with a bit of back and forth they managed to fit me in as a solo. The night before the trip I met someone who was eager to come along also, the staff were more than accommodating to organise the tour for my friend also. Very quick turnaround which impressed me more. An early start on the morning with a 6am departure Grant was our assigned driver to bring us to the collection point, conversation was not to a minimum we all found a common interest and he was very information and humorous along the route. The car was comfortable clean and a welcome addition of a blanket and a bottle of water (greatly needed following a heavy night after the game). Grant pulled out all the stops and made the journey more enjoyable to and from the drop off point. Onto the highlight which of course was the Sani Pass for me absolutely in awe of this place alot of changes since I was last there particularly no snow which in a way was a bonus along with our driver Mo. He made the journey incredibly informative giving us all information of the area along with wildlife while adding his quirky sense of humour to it. Commendation for his driving abilities as its no easy task going up the pass I was upset to hear of the future planning of it to be renovated to a smooth path, it takes away the complete charm I feel and of course will have a knock on effect for all things tourism. Hopefully that won't happen too soon ! We made it in great timing to the top of the pass taking in the amazing views along the way honestly I could do it every day just for the views alone . We then made it to Lesotho border, I'm an avid collector of coins and notes Mo went out of his way to make sure I got some and gifted me 20 Maloti for which I greatly appreciate it's not often people would offer such a gesture although small it meant alot ! The village tour gave great insight into how the Lesotho people live and the locals were very friendly giving us their insights and offering some bread. The bread well I could write a whole chapter on it but honestly the nicest bread I've ever tasted. Pity I didn't bring some jam or butter had I known! A quick look around the village then back to the highest pub in Africa. As an irish man I felt a duty had to be done on visiting this pub and was glad to have finally had a few beers there. An amazing little spot with some epic views over the pass. Mo again filling us with knowledge of everything in the area and was happy to share a non alcoholic beverage with him. Our day ended quicker than I hoped but that's the joys of quick travel . I can't recommend this company enough from start to finish I felt very welcome and taken care of. Don't hesitate to book if ever in the Durban region! Massive thank you to all involved Ian and Ross 🇮🇪 🇬🇧
Hi Ian and Ross, it was great reading your incredibly detailed review, thank you for taking the time to write it. Thank you so much for all your kind words!
This tour has been amazing!!! The reasons are as follows: １、We were regularly contacted via email before the tour, so we could participate in the tour with peace of mind. 2. The guide was very kind and comfortable to proceed with the tour. We had the tour changed for our own reasons, and they were happy to accept our request. 3. In Lesotho, I had time to interact with the locals and understand the culture of Lesotho as well as the best views from Sanipas. In summary, the guide on the best tour was also the best guide I have ever met!! We recommend this tour to all visitors to Lesotho!!
It was an experience of a lifetime. Rode up these beautiful mountains in a 4x4 to experience the culture of the Lesotho people. It totally took my breath away. The ride up and down the mountain was scary but exhilarating. Definitely recommend!
Justin & Thabo are both professional and fantastic people.. From the time we met Thabo, we never had a dull moment with him. He is expcetionally knowledgeable and great sense of humor. He made our day. I cannot overstate how great our day trip to Sani pass was..the views were breathtaking.. I highly recommend Justin.. Wild route tours.. Use them for whatever trip you might be planning while staying in Durban.. Re
