Two firms to manage tourist sites
MASERU – THE Lesotho Tourism Development Corporation (LTDC) has contracted two Basotho-owned companies to run ’Maletsunyane Falls and Butha-Buthe Visitors Comfort Facilities (VCF).
’Maletsunyane Ventures, run by a local businessman Bokang Kheekhe, will manage the VCF for the ’Maletsunyane Falls.
Southern Express, run by Motlatsi Russel, will manage the Butha-Buthe VCF.
’Maletsunyane Ventures is expected to rejuvenate tourist facilities near the 192-metre-high ’Maletsunyane Falls.
The waterfall, located near the town of Semonkong, falls from a ledge of Triassic-Jurassic basalt and the plunging water creates a reverberating echo when it contacts the basin of the falls.
