Most Amazing Tour ever - What an amazing experience. It's really a 5 star private tour It's not cramped up with others you don't know. All the little extras made it so special. Greg is very knowledgeable and a true gentleman. Visiting the the village was so special. I'll recommend them far above all the other service providers

Wonderful Sani Pass Experience - This was my first trip up Sani Pass and into Lesotho. I am very glad that I did research and decided to book the Private Sani Pass Classic Tour. Angie was excellent at communicating and answered all my questions that made confirming a booking, very easy. On arrival at the collection point, our tour vehicle was prepared for us beautifully with fresh flowers, information leaflets, local water, souvenirs from Lesotho and a delicious chocolate fudge treat. Throughout our journey, Greg provided lots of interesting facts about the various areas. He made the cross-border experiences so convenient by completing all require documents, taking our passports and doing whatever was needed without us having to stand in queues. The road into Lesotho is very challenging and I will confidently state that I would not do this trip in my own 4x4. Greg’s humour kept the 4 of us very entertained and when doing the presentation on the Lesotho culture, geographical facts and blankets, he captured this audience and I found it all very interesting. The weather changed on our way down but Greg handled the road perfectly and we arrived back safely. I highly recommend this Private Sani Pass Classic Day Tour with Angie and Greg. Thank you very much for making this a special event for all of us.

Top class, fun filled bucket list experience! - A bucket list experience going up Sani Pass with friends yesterday. What an absolutely exceptional experience especially having done it as a private tour and with a local company. Greg was just AMAZING. So much knowledge and just an honest, great humoured, playful person. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with him and the day was filled with laughter. His driving abilities are incredible and we felt so safe and in capable hands. The stuff great memories are made of. Thank you Angie and Greg for running a top class business. We even got homemade chocolate fudge and muffins that were very YUMMY. It felt like every little thing was considered and thought of. THANK YOU both.

Excellent Sani Pass Trip - Nothing was exceptional in every aspect of our trip. From collecting us on time, delivering an engaging and informative commentary on all things to do with the local environment and its inhabitants, and answering our questions. His driving was excellent in very demanding terrain, and we felt totally safe at all times. I'd happily recommend this tour.

Must use for Sani pass - Hi Angie Thank you for a wonderful experience. Nathi was amazing. He is knowledgeable, courteous, funny and you feel safe in his hands. (Side note, I thought I’d drive the pass myself. My friends told me I was crazy. Having experienced it with Nathi, I would never have managed it on my own. The safety and experience of Nathi on the pass allowed me and the family to really enjoy it)

Perfect experience - An absolute amazing day with Greg. His knowledge was excellent, the vehicle was luxurious and expertly driven. We saw a part of Lesotho away from the tourism route and had a delicious traditional lunch. The home-baked muffins and cookies at our coffee stop half way up Sani Pass was perfectly timed. As the owners of South African Secrets bespoke travel company will be definitely recommending it to our guests.

Great Sani Pass tour - We had a fantastic trip to the Sanipass with guide Nathi who told us a lot about the area and drove us safely up and down in the comfortable car. Along the way we were spoiled with coffee / tea and tasty cookies & muffins. Also the visit to a small village in Lesotho was very worthwhile. I would definitely recommend this tour ,also for families with children, who loved the frozen waterfalls.

The most gracious hosts ensuring that you make memories to last a life time - We own a travel and tour company called VMG Travel and Tours from start to end Angie has been the most gracious host ever. This was supposed to a personal trip for Mervyn and myself however our clients that have traveled with us previously wanted to join us and we ended up with a group of 20 Angie organised everything to perfection. She even went the extra mile of getting the menu for us and arranging our meals at the highest Pub in SA. On arrival at the hotel we were a few minutes late and Greg was so patient and wow what a surprise it was when he brought out the most beautiful chocolate cake courtesy of Angie, this was such a beautiful gesture. The attention to detail was out of this world each of the guests had a bottle of water a small little welcome box filled wd the most divine fudge and a menu which stated what snacks will be served on route. What pleasant tour guides we had., we had Greg who was so Informative we learnt so much, the rest of our group were also full of praises of their tour guides as well. The entire experience was just amazing and I would recommend that any one who wants to visit the Sani pass or any other trip listed please contact Angie and you will never regret it. Personally VMG Travel and Tours will definitely be arranging more tours for our groups in the near future. Angie and Greg keep up the good work your efforts time and energy put in will definitely ensure that you reap the rewards. Thank so much for making my birthday such a memorable one
