The best day - Had the best day in Lesotho. My tour guide and driver, Fortune was the best. We had great conversation, he was knowledgeable and didn't mind being my official photographer. We made stops along the scenic route until we finally made it. Despite the weather, I had a wonderful time and truly enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend.

Amazing tour. - What an amazing day, everything was perfect. The tour is a must do historically and visually. Spectacular views from the winding road that takes you through no-man’s land between the SA and Lesotho check points. The village we visited was a real eye opener to the way of life of the local people. Or Blanket people. Fortune our guide was fantastic, knowledgeable, polite, helpful, caring. Overall great guy to take you on this tour.

Themi is the best tour guide - This was one of the best experiences we've ever had. Our Zulu Safaris guide, Themi, was incredibly kind, considerate and patient. Themi has a knack of being present and available to help while also giving us space to enjoy the experience privately. He is very knowledgeable and an excellent driver, expertly navigating the windy mountain pass. He also taught us some Zulu words along the way. Most importantly, he was so kind, going above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable and safe. He even waited with us after our tour to ensure that our ride home arrived to pick us up. We had Themi as a guide for two tours on two different days. He made both tours exceptional and we are so grateful for that. We are hoping to book a tour with him again next year.

A must have experience!! - Our 1st trip was in Sani Pass and Lesotho. Our guide Thami was so professional, knowledgeable, friendly and an excellent driver! The view in Drakensberg is breathtaking, the Basotho people were friendly and we had an amazing time at the Highest Pub of Africa! On the 2nd day our guide was Mr Sotiris, a friendly, kind and a careful person, who knows details and he makes you feel special. We had access to Zulu Medicine Market, a truly unique place! We totally recommend 1st Zulu safaris if you want to have once in a lifetime experience!!

Great full day experience with some education along the way. - Very professional service with pickup at the Hotel and plenty of stops along the way. Good educational info for some sights along the way. The guide was knowledgeable and a save driver. Even gave good tips about souvenir price and when to tip the locals how much. Four stars only because of the price simply did not match the type of car used. Weak A/C was barely able to cool the front seat area but not the back. Seats were some plastic material so one was sweaty at the back all the time. One of the back doors did not open properly.
