My name is Motlatsi: I have been in the tour guide sector since 2006. I have a strong background in Electronics and Information Technology (IT), having been train in the United Kingdom in Electronics and IT training in South Africa. Spent most of the time in customer service providing technical and software support. Have been travelling to several countries both on my IT business and on tours during family vacations. This is where the interest for dealing with tourists came about. Then in 2006, 2007 and 2009 I attended several training programs in tour guiding. Since then I have had tourists from all over the world. Notably from, USA, South America, UK, Germany, Philippines, Singapore, New Zealand, Georgia, Slovakia, Finland, Sweden, China, Indonesia, several African Countries, etc. For me this is the most fulfilling work I have ever done all my life. I get to meet people with different cultural backgrounds, different personalities. It makes me more of a human being than anything. What I like most is dealing with small groups, like family or a few friends as it gives me an opportunity to provide a personalized service. I got training by Drum Beat Academy in South Africa in 2007 and qualified as a Nature Guide for the areas of Freestate Province and the Kingdom of Lesotho. Accredited as guide by the Freestate Government - Registration No. FS0045. Also received training in 2009 at SATSA (Southern Africa Tourism Services Association). My vehicle is not wheelchair friendly, but I can hire one if you let me know at least two weeks in advance.

A terrific tour. Motlatsi is an excellent guide, professional, personable and very insightful on Lesotho and its people. This tour included several places in the “Tentative UNESCO World Heritage Site of Basotho” and it was very easy to understand why it was included on that list. Everything listed on the itinerary was accurate, the drive was very comfortable, and it was just a fun day.
Motlatsi was great! Very friendly and helpful! He really did a great job of taking care of us and answering any questions.
What a marvellous experience! I highly recommend this Motlatsi as a very reliable guide. He really takes care about you from the very first moment you meet him till you shave hands with him to say goodbye. He's full of knowledge about Lesotho, no question remains unanswered. His car is ideal for the off-road terrain we had to drive through to get to the points of interest.
