Unique and unforgettable family holidays in Africa

Journeys that inspire, connect, and make a difference

We recently returned from a two week trip in Namibia with our three children. The whole experience was exceptional. Polly’s passion for travel and great knowledge of the country helped shape what was a truly unforgettable and unique experience that the whole family will remember.

Thank you, Polly, for giving our family the adventure of a lifetime in Mozambique. From whale shark snorkeling to surf beaches and deep sea fishing, every detail was perfect. It gave us a much-needed digital detox and unforgettable time together with our four kids. We came home reconnected, refreshed, and full of amazing memories!

 Thank you so much Polly for organising our amazing family adventure to Namibia this year. Our kids will be talking about all the fun things we did together for years to come!

The Lane family, SA

What a dream family holiday we had in South Africa planned by Journey South. The combination of safari in the Waterberg followed by adventures in Cape Town and the Winelands was the perfect October half term break. Packed with magical moments, you masterminded everything meticulously and gave us everything we had hoped for and more!
