Questions from the road.

Do I need a passport for the Lesotho border crossing?

Yes. A valid passport is required for every guest crossing into Lesotho. We handle the border paperwork and guide you through the process at the top of the pass.

How rough is the Sani Pass road?

It is a genuine 4x4 trail with steep inclines, loose stones, and tight switchbacks. Our vehicles are built for it, and our drivers navigate it daily. You just need to sit back and take in the views.

What should we bring on the day?

Warm layers—even in summer, the mountain top is cold—a hat, sunscreen, a camera, and your passport. We provide the transport, the guiding, and the lunch stop.

Can we book a private charter for just our group?

Absolutely. Our Private Underberg to Sani Top Charter gives you exclusive use of the vehicle and guide, with flexible timing and a customised itinerary built around your group.

Where do the tours depart from?

All tours depart from Underberg, South Africa. We will coordinate the exact meeting point with you when you book.

The Sani Pass Day Tour was hands down the highlight of our trip to Underberg. Our guide made the bumpy drive feel super safe and filled the day with awesome local stories.

We took the Half-Day Sani Pass Scenic Trip and were blown away by how much we got to see in just a few hours. Absolutely fantastic value for money!

Sipho T.

Booked the Lesotho Village & Cultural Tour and loved how warm and welcoming everyone was. Booking was a breeze and the team treated us like old friends.

Shaun W.

Having the Private Underberg to Sani Top Charter all to ourselves made the experience so relaxed and flexible. I'd recommend Dithabeng to anyone visiting the area!
