Additional Information

The mountain kingdom of Lesotho is out-of-this world for its sheer mountain beauty. Combine that with its unique culture where the people have combined a 21st approach to certain day-to-day activities whilst holding onto their culturally unique way-of-life and it blends into an amazing experience.\n\nOur guests are often visiting Lesotho whilst on holiday in South Africa. We have perfected a 3-day private tour which incorporates many of the top things to do in Lesotho, despite being on a time budget.\n\nOf course, Lesotho has even more amazing things to do and see, but we feel that this tour has become a favourite because it packs so much into just 3 days of overland in Lesotho!\n\nSani Pass, Lesotho Cultural Immersion, Drakensberg Bushmen Paintings, Dinosaur Footprints, Modern-day Cave Dwellers and Semonkong.

Off the Cruise Ship for 4 days to visit Lesotho - First of all Emile amended this 3 day tour for us to pick us up in Durban at the cruise port and return us to the Durban airport on the 4th day to make our flight. It was an awesome experience and our driver Peter was excellent. We toured most of the country and had many different experiences that were wonderful. All the locations that we visited were very unique and educational as well. All accommodations arranged throughout the tour were excellent. On our final day which was mainly driving back to Durban, Emile had arranged a luncheon for us at a Private Game park. What a surprise. Emile went out of his way to make sure we had this tour and made sure that it would surpass our expectations and it did. I would recommend this company to anyone travelling in this area, their service is above and beyond what your would expect.

Lesotho with Mondli - I would like to praise the guide Mondli for making us a fun, educational, and interesting trip. From the first moment we felt confident in his driving, we discovered his great knowledge in every field, the history of Lesotho, the approach to the locals, and especially in the field of bird watching which suited my husband's hobby - photographing birds. Mondli responded to our requests and supported us during the difficult times we went through following of the events in Israel. I would like to thank Mondli from the bottom of my heart and hope that there will be more people/guides like him.

The Highlight Of My Trip!! - Out of the 3.5 weeks I spent on my trip to South Africa, the 3 day tour to Lesotho with Roof of Africa was hands down one of the highlights of my trip. First, I wanted to say that the staff at Roof of Africa, especially Emile and Peter are some of the most dedicated, caring people I have ever met. They go out of their way to make sure you are taken care of and having a great time. They consistently go above and beyond and I have rarely seen this anywhere I have travelled. If there were awards for travel companies, I would nominate Roof of Africa a million times over until they get recognized for just how amazing they are. Emile is so patient. I usually travel solo but had a friend coming along with me. She was being difficult and took until the last second to confirm. I know this had to be causing huge headaches on the administration side but we never felt it once. Emile also arranged for a wonderful company to pick us up and drop us off in Durban. Then on the day of pick-up we were scheduled to fly from Kruger to Durban and our safari company dropped us at the wrong airport with not enough time to get to the correct airport. We were going to be hours late and I was panicking. Emile told us not to worry and she arranged with the driver to be there when our new flight would land. I don't know how she does it. Emile is a magical human! She also hand made a picnic lunch for us for the first day of the tour. Who does that? No one! It was the best lunch, and it is these type of personal touches that will make me shout from the top of Africa about how amazing this company is. Peter also needs to be mentioned - he is an outstanding guide. This tour is a lot of driving, through winding mountain roads and he is a fabulous driver. He is very safe, and attentive to the road, while also being attentive to us! There were so many instances where my friend and I were taking pictures out the window and the absolutely breathtaking scenery and without asking Peter would slow down, and often stop for us to take pictures. I mean, we did this a lot and never once did he seem annoyed. If I was him, I would have been annoyed! He is just so patient, wonderful and caring. He also is a master at spotting birds and animals. I would be looking out the windows and not see it and yet he is driving and yet somehow can spot them flying by. I have no words. I don't know how he does it. Is it magic? It must be magic. By the end of the tour I was so sad it was over. I could have easily spent 3 additional days touring with Peter and never gotten bored. Thank you so so much from the bottom of my heart for making my dreams of visiting Lesotho come true. Your country is so beautiful and everyone was so kind. I am dreaming of coming back, and when I do I absolutely will be booking again with Roof of Africa.

Lesotho was am`ing - Very well organised, and Lesotho opened our hearts and minds. We have a young family and we loved the guided tour to Lesotho. With a young family we had lots of well arranged stops on the way, with drinks and food. Always key! Our guide was so knowledgeable and we learnt so much from him. Great company and we would highly recommend them. Transfers were all seamless.

One of a lifetime experience - Don’t miss a trip to Lesotho while you are in South Africa. Stunning sceneries, beautiful encounters with the locals . Our guide from Roof of Africa. Was very knowledgeable and courteous but also the best driver I met. I highly recommend this organization to anyone who plans to visit Lesotho. They did everything possible to please and accommodate us. The guide even spotted a very traditional ceremony celebrating manhood of some villagers , without him we would have missed it. He taught us a lot on their culture and also helped us interact tactfully with the people who were not Used to seeing foreign tourists. He was also very environmental friendly . Out of the 74 countries visited to date, Lesotho remains one of my favorite ones partly due to the way I visited it .
