    The trip was superbly organized - from the advice to the execution. We felt very well looked after and the journaway team was always available on site. We really enjoyed South Africa and Namibia. The trip was very varied and we took many unforgettable impressions home with us.

    This trip was a perfect mix of stunning and diverse locations across South Africa. I especially loved the Garden Route — it felt safe, incredibly beautiful, and had such a relaxed vibe. Journaway did a great job with some truly unique and memorable accommodations that made the experience even more special. Also, a Toyota Vitz was more than capable for this route. South Africa really stole my heart — I’ll definitely be coming back, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Journaway again.
