What to expect

  1. KwaZulu-Natal
    3h
    The Sani Pass tour from Durban begins early at 6am as you set off through the scenic KwaZulu-Natal Midlands, a region known for its rolling green hills, farmlands, and charming countryside views. The drive takes you to the mountain town of Underberg, the gateway to the Southern Drakensberg, where the real adventure begins.
  2. Sani Pass
    9m · Admission ticket included
    You board a 4x4 vehicle suitable for tracks of the famous Sani Pass. This mountain road is a thrilling journey, climbing hairpin bends and rocky trails that rise over 2,800 meters above sea level, offering breathtaking views of dramatic valleys, towering cliffs, and cascading streams along the way.

    In Lesotho you visit a traditional Basotho village, where you can meet locals, learn about their way of life, and experience their warm hospitality in this remote mountain kingdom. No trip to Sani Pass is complete without a stop at the legendary Highest Pub in Africa, perched on the mountaintop, where you can enjoy a meal or a refreshing drink while taking in sweeping panoramas across Lesotho and back toward the Drakensberg. The combination of rugged adventure, spectacular scenery, and cultural encounters makes this tour one of the most memorable experiences in South Africa. After a full day of exploration and discovery, you return to Durban around 6pm.
