Professional and prompt service
5/5

I have worked with Journeys Beyond for years but only now have I had a chance to experience their product on the ground and it's safe to say I couldn't have had a better experience. All of our arrangements ran smoothly and on time with professional and engaging staff to answer any of our queries that we had along the way. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Journeys Beyond to anyone.

breathtaking experience
5/5

Live this experience was lovely. As a professional in the tourism market, having the opportunity to experience the safari far beyond what the TV channels show is really enlightening. Witness the attack of the lions to zebras was positively indescribable as all the service you offer. Amazing! The experience brought me knowledge that I now share with my clients and friends. Its a full experience. You have to live it!

5/5

The folks at Journey Beyond were extremely helpful and professional, dealing with many changes, special dietary need issues, and coordinating with another family's travel plans. They also made great recommendations and sent us a complete printed itinerary with everything documented. I don't know how we would have done it without them!

Memorable! Fascinating! Life changing! Thrilling! Perfection!
5/5

I had the most positive experience with Mable vanderMuelen, Lauren and Philip of Journey Beyond!
The itinerary they planned for me was flawless.
This trip was everything we wanted and from the moment we arrived the entire journey including flights, transfers to the lodges and tours were well coordinated.
The accomodations were luxurious, the food outstanding and the game viewing was indescribable.
Our entire trip from Botswana to Zambia to South Africa was way beyond our expectations.

Excellency from start to finish
5/5

I travelled with Journey Beyond twice this year and could not have been more impressed with the service and team. Attention to detail, quick replies and extensive knowledge before travel, and an incredible dedication and quality of services, from hotels to transfers to guides. Journey Beyond excels from travel planning to delivery, and I would not consider a visit to Africa without their guidance.

AMAZING TOUR OPERATOR IN AFRICA
5/5

In August of 2013 I had a beautiful trip in South Africa. Journey Beyond took care of an amazing 10 days trip with friends going to a Safari Lodge (Royal Malewane), Capetown ( Ellermann House Hotel), in the wine region ( La Residence) and in the shark coast of Hermanus ( Birkenhead House). In every corner we felt their care in everything. City tour in Capetown with wonderful local tips, wine degustations during sunset, shark diving tour with a preservation group of people, safari tour with one of the six best rangers in the world... What I can tell is that I am now on my way to South Africa again, with my daughter, with the 100% garantie that it will the best version of another Africa experience.

Most Amazing Trip Ever perfectly planned by Journey Beyond
5/5

My wife and I spent 2 weeks in South Africa in February of this year and it was one of the most, if not THE most amazing trip we have ever taken and we can thank Journey Beyond for making it happen for us. We learned about Journey Beyond through online research and word of mouth and we started planning our trip early with them. We worked with Tanya Robinson and Annette Holtmann from Journey Beyond and we gave them a budget and a rough agenda of what we were wanting to do and see while we were in South Africa and they took it from there and put together a itinerary that was absolutely perfect. They were so easy to work with and so helpful, in the end all we had to do was show up as they had taken care of everything else. Before our trip, they conveniently mailed us a guide booklet with our detailed itinerary, with each section explained with helpful tips, all needed phone numbers for contacts and useful information about each stop we had.
We started our Trip with 2 days of Safari in Kruger National Park and we stayed in the Tinga Lodge at Lion Sands. After 2 days we relocated to the River Lodge at Lion Sands with Safaris in the Sabi Sands National Park. It was great because Journey Beyond gave us the opportunity to stay in both Lodges, which were quite different from each other but both amazing along with having the 2 different experiences of going on Safari in Kruger and Sabi Sands National Parks. Staying at Lion Sands was the perfect plan as the Staff at Lions Sands take care of every one of your needs and make it so all you have to do is relax and have a good time!
After 4 days of Safari, we flew to Capetown where Journey Beyond had planned our next 3 days of sightseeing. We had a guide arranged by Journey Beyond, Darren, who was a local and extremely knowledgeable of all the areas we saw. All of the suggestions for sights we saw were perfect! Journey Beyond even planned in a day off for us to relax on the beach and by the pool while we were in Capeteown. From Capetown, Darren drove us to the Wine Country in Franscheok where we spent the next few days eating delicious food and drinking some of the best South African wines.
From start to finish we experienced so many different adventures while we were in South Africa from Safari to Beaches to Wine Tastings. Journey Beyond made the trip so memorable for us and by FAR helped exceed our expectations. We are so thankful that we used them to plan our vacation and would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to get the full South African experience. We hope to make it back and will certainly use them again!

First Class Agent and Service
5/5

We have used Journey Beyond for all of our 'African' Adventures since we moved to Johannesburg some 6 years ago. They are without a doubt 'The Best in the Market'. Superlative service, attention to detail and value for money are key. We have travelled to Namibia, Mozambique, Botswana, Desroches in the Seychelles as well as numerous long weekends to Game Reserves. They will not disappoint.

Trip of a lifetime.
5/5

Journey Beyond made all the arrangements for us (two couples) traveling through Botswana and South Africa in 2012. Every detail was looked after professionally. We couldn't imagine better service. The itinerary was created personally for us. Journey Beyond selected exactly the kind of hotels and resorts we were interested in.

We have recommended them to several other travelers who all come back raving about their trip.
