Good to Know
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

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!
