WHAT OUR PAST GUESTS HAVE TO SAY...

"I was told this was going to be a great trip , and it was outstanding. The extra pluses meeting everyone on the trip and hoping we will continue to keep in touch"

Janice and Parthenia

"The JB trip was great and well planned, conceived, and executed. You created a blend of activities and flavor for the country that was memorable. Please continue to introduce unknowing Americans to South Africa. We were so glad we added Victoria Falls to the agenda. As with all of your plans, the transfers and hotel arrangements and side trips were great.  The falls tour was a must and the evening river cruise was a surprise treat"

I have been many places and this my friend was the best experience ever!

This is just a note to let you know how much we enjoyed our recent trip to South Africa. I had no idea that I would be impacted so much as I still dream of being there. All of the arrangements – the accommodations, restaurants, excursions and transportation were first class and reflected your attention to detail. Thanks to you and JB for such an intimate experience."

Karen and Nate

"We had a fantastic time and are still talking about the trip every single day. Thank you for coordinating the stay. The accommodations were immaculate and the hippo eating grass on the lawn in the evening...that made it extra special! Please know we enjoyed every single minute. We have learned so much, and we are inspiring others to make the trip. The culture is rich, the land is beautiful, and the people...well, they challenge our spirits to be great, do right, and shine bright."

"Our trip to South Africa together was so meaningful. I came home with an overwhelming feeling of gratitude. What I learned in S.A. will stay with me always... the power of forgiveness, kindness, a connection to our earth that I've never felt so deeply, and how music is so vital and nourishing!!"

Why take the Journey with Jonathan!

South African-born Jonathan Butler renowned song writer and musician is returning once more to his place of birth, as he embarks on this very personal pilgrimage to proudly share his humble beginnings - where it all started for him as a young rising artist in the face of adversity and personal struggles.  And through it all he remains proudly South African relishing the opportunity to showcase "his" South Africa - its beautiful scenery, natural wildlife, rich heritage and gracious people.  

With Jonathan holding nothing less than a deep and unselfish love for his beloved South Africa,  he  welcomes you to enjoy not only in all its beauty, but also to understand its past and present struggles with diversity and the long road to reconciliation - and to share this through his eyes and footsteps in the only way Jonathan knows how.. in celebration with story and song.

Only a tour like this of South Africa gets this up close and personal!
