Recommended Travel Adaptor for Lesotho
After testing numerous adaptors during real trips, one stood out. It performed best on safety, value and usability. This is the adaptor we suggest you take.
Abroad with no adaptor? You’ll find some for sale at airports and in town. Just bear in mind they’re often overpriced and not the best quality.
Lesotho is often visited together with South Africa and Eswatini. Even in Southern Africa, it’s smart to double-check plug types before you travel.
Sockets in Lesotho
In Lesotho, you’ll find Type M plugs and sockets.
Type M
Type M sockets have three large round pins arranged in a triangular shape. UK Type G plugs do not fit into Type M sockets.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
Voltage converters are only necessary if there’s a mismatch. In Lesotho the mains supply is more or less the same as in the UK, so you’re fine.
Double-check your device’s voltage label when travelling. ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’ means you won’t need a converter, which is the case for most up-to-date electronics.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
Every trip feels smoother with a few clever extras. No more guessing your suitcase weight with a luggage scale, no more dead phone on the train with a power bank, and no more messy bag thanks to packing cubes. They’re small additions, but they make a big difference.
