[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks Johannes - sorry for the long wait on this one!

[@StephanCoetser]

Marius, I was stationed at Sani Pass, June 1984 to June '88, new basically everybody, Mr Watson, I bought my first horse from him, young bull calves, sheep and pigs for meat, Dennis May, his brother and mother, Mike clarke from Moghotlong transport and Ha Maghagi trade post Ann and everybody, taught me so much of live. Thank you Regards Stephan

Another magic episode…Sani Pass is still on my bucket list 😁

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks Justin…it really is spectacular and pretty intense! Can only imagine in snow or rain

[@countrymountainoverlanding]

I really enjoyed this episode. Lesotho is my absolute favourite place on earth.

Lovely video with stunning scenery. That Underberg area is beautiful. Been up & down Sani Pass with bike on same day and had lunch up top. It's a gem of SA but fortunately not as swamped by tourists like Venice or Kilimanjaro (even Mt Everest). Please hurry with the next one. 🥺🙏

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks so much Sean!!! Be awesome for us to share some gravel together some time... I am super committed to spending more time in Lesotho - love the country and the people!

[@seanfrench1029]

@MariusRobertsProductions I've been to Lesotho a few times as medic for enduros but then it's a tight schedule. I need to go back with my Everest 4x4 (or bike) with no pressure on the itinerary - like you guys. 😎

Trips got to include GOOD COFFEE ~ lovely stuff as always Marius ~ thanks

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks Karen and thank you for all the support and kind words...

[@PatrickChali-ig8xg]

Great content Marius ...I am.hooked

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Such an awesome message! Thank you Patrick...

[@ValdoLandman]

Another bucket list ticked off. Isnt it great when things go Unplanned. Nice camping spot. Looking forward to next 1.

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

This trip has certainly taught us to just go with the flow... Old Hatchery was a gem of a find thanks to Rod - its his mates place - and they have only just started adding camping to their offering. Perfect launch pad to explore the area...

[@geoffchurchman1635]

Good to see you back on the road yes Gods country

[@cyprianmulenga9540]

I like the theme song 🎉😂

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

So cool hey! We bumped into Cornelius in Mooi River on a coffee stop - got chatting and he offered to write us a song (check Episode 6) and this is the result - amazing and I love the fact that its local and unique to us!

Awesome video Marius. Always enjoy watching the channel…It is very special getting to the top and feel slightly accomplished. We did Sani Pass in March 2024… Next time buy beer from the little blue, white and green shed as u come in toward the lodge. They sell the Maluti beer for half the price🫣. Supporting local is Lekker 😜

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

100% and now that I have done it, would love to tackle it in winter in some snow! I know the spot you talking about - have great shots of their 'free beer only joking campaign' but being the 1st time we had to do the tourist thing. As you will see in the next episode, support local is very much our vibe! Thanks for the cool message and for the support

[@lionridds]

Sani/Lesotho is a must do in winter! 👌

[@deanstevens5722]

Great video as always, what time of the year we’re you there as beautiful

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thank so much Dean! That was mid November 2023

[@JohandeBeer-eo7sl]

Why does the bad luck keep on following you Marius??? I know why!!! You are travelling without me 😂😅 But you carry on and joke about it. That's the spirit. Keep it going to new places we want to see

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Haha maybe that's why! That's life in general - it doesn't always go as planned - so the only choice you have is to go with it or be grumpy about it! We go with it....

[@lawrenceramese7014]

nice one thanks guys

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thank you!!!

[@gertmouton319]

Very little comes to enjoying a Maluti at the highest pub in the country... Lekke boet.

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Was great to get that one ticked off
