Lesotho Bicycle Day Tour

Activity Description

Enjoy a social cycling adventure for all fitness levels! Explore the Sani Pass and Lesotho at your own pace with the freedom to jump in and out of our support vehicle whenever you wish. This is a fun and flexible guided tour that offers a truly memorable way of experiencing Lesotho up close. Visit a traditional Basotho homestead and village and enjoy lunch on Africa’s rooftop.

IMPORTANT TO NOTE

The Highest Pub in Africa charges an entrance fee of R200 per adult and R100 per child under 12. This fee is not included in our tour price, as visits to the pub are subject to availability. Should your tour include a stop at the Highest Pub, the entrance fee will be payable on the day. This fee is however redeemable at the restaurant and bar and will be deducted from your bill.

Alternatively if the Highest Pub is fully booked we offer our guests the option of either having lunch at a lovely local Basotho restaurant, or feel free to bring along your own snacks and drinks for in the vehicle while on the tour! Of course should you prefer not to have lunch for religious or personal reasons that is absolutely fine too. Kindly select your preference when making your booking and we will make the necessary arrangements.
