About Entabeni Tours
Mountain people, sharing our mountains
Entabeni Tours is a Sani Pass and Lesotho tour operator based in Underberg, KwaZulu-Natal. We are not a game reserve or a lodge — we are guides, and the Southern Drakensberg is our home.
Every tour is run by experienced, knowledgeable guides who grew up with these passes and border posts. We travel in capable 4x4 vehicles, keep our groups personal, and take the time to stop, look and talk — about the rock, the weather, the birds and the Basotho families who live at altitude.

The Sani Pass Experience
Africa's most famous mountain pass
Rough gravel, tight hairpins and a 1 300 metre climb to the roof of Southern Africa. This is a 4x4 road, and it rewards you with some of the most spectacular scenery on the continent.
01
Southern Drakensberg
We depart from the Underberg / Himeville area and follow the valley to the South African border post.
02
The Climb
Switchback after switchback up the escarpment, stopping for photographs, waterfalls and the big views.
03
The Summit
Into Lesotho at the top of the pass — highland air, Basotho culture and the Highest Pub in Africa.

Into the Mountain Kingdom
Above the escarpment the world changes. Basotho shepherds in bright blankets, stone-and-thatch homesteads, horses on the skyline and a way of life shaped entirely by altitude.
On our Lesotho tours we visit a traditional village where you're welcomed with warmth and honesty, learn how families live through the highland winter, and end the day at the Highest Pub in Africa with the whole Drakensberg falling away below you.
