Philip and his team did a great job in… Philip and his team did a great job in helping us plan our trip to South Africa. His advice on accommodation, tours, transfers, restaurants and little but important travelling details was very clear and included relevant links and information. The payment was simple and processed fast. We also greatly appreciated Philip's flexibility and superb customer service in adjusting the itinerary to accommodate different arrivals of our group members. Sadly, some tour members had to cancel their trip and I cannot thank Philip and his team enough for their professionalism and assistance with the trip cancellation.

We can’t say enough positive things… We can’t say enough positive things about Where It All Began. They created a bespoke, seamless three week trip for five people ranging from age 13 to 75. Our unique interests and varied needs were addressed making it a lifetime memory for all of us. We received daily travel check-ins from them reminding us of travel details, pickup confirmations, etc. It was, by far, the best organized and easiest trip that I have ever taken. In addition to this, it was also the most interesting and personal trip that I have ever taken. We were invited into the homes of individuals from all over South Africa, learning about their experiences and stories. I will definitely ask Where it All Began to plan our next trip to Africa!

Enjoyable Cape & Wine Experience Philip took the time to understand what type of experience we wanted to have and made many expert suggestions on places to visit. Our drivers were knowledgeable and very professional. We had an amazing trip thanks to the team at Where It All Began.

Great agency - highly recommended. Outstanding organization that planned our visit in South Africa. All details were meticulously planned. The structure of the 2 week trip was very balanced so we had time to relax between visits. Excellent choice of lodges and restaurants. The driver/guide was safe, hospitable and knowledgeable and shared many experiences and information that helped us understand better the country and the history. When changes were needed everything was done for us very smoothly and we received excellent follow up each evening. In sum a perfect experience. Highly recommended.

Safe and imaginative hands We had a general idea as to how we wanted to spend 3 weeks in South Africa in February. Philip Rendel and his team not only made our plans a reality but booked us extraordinary accommodation, imaginative routes that took us to places we hadn’t even read about! WHIB read is perfectly and anticipated all our need. We are already planning next year’s grand adventure. Rodney and Sue Mariner
