Sani Pass
 
Has anyone done it recently? Has the road been paved and if so does it still require 4 wheel drive to go up?

I did a tour along the Sani Pass this July and based on the "road" conditions IŽd say a 4 wheel drive is an absolute necessity. Actually, unless youŽre used to driving on such roads, IŽd probably even recommend booking a tour with one of the local tour companies (a half-day excursion costs ~600ZAR per person).

There are dozens of tour companies which offer the Sani Pass tours (often charging ridiculous amounts IMO), however all these companies only provide transportation to Underberg. The actual Sani Pass Tours are operated by 3-4 different companies based in Underberg which charge very similar (and reasonable) amounts (~600ZAR per person).

My tour was operated by Major Adventures: excellent experience, friendly staff at the office and very knowledgable tour guide / driver.
