Incredibly exciting caring operators sharing their love for animals with us.
Excellent accommodations and staff. Well organized and worked with my situation of flying in a day later then the rest of my group organizing an airport pick up for me. Incredible experience.

Viva safari is organized, accommodating, and dedicated to delivering a fantastic safari experience!
Viva safari did an amazing job at making my groups safari experience a blast. The guides were amazing (Lucky, Rocky, Raymond, King George to name a few) due to their knowledge, humor, and friendly banter with our group. They also did a great job at making sure we saw a lot of wildlife on our game drives. The company was also very accommodating to any last minute changes we made and the food and kitchen staff was wonderful. Overall it was a very affordable and great safari experience that I would recommend to anyone!

Viva Safaris was incredible, they made every aspect of our safari experience 10/10.
The guides were friendly and knowledgeable, the lodge was quaint and nice and safe, and the food was SO good! Every single meal we were stuffed to the brim with delicious food. We saw so many different animals and birds, and the guides were wonderful at ensuring we had an interesting experience each time we went out on a drive or bush walk. They were very accommodating to any needs we had, including letting us stop to shop whenever we left the reserve, finding us hats in town that we all wanted to buy, and for anything else we asked of at the lodge. We really felt at home there and had so much fun. Balule is an incredible game reserve, and I am so glad we went with Viva Safaris as this was the trip of a lifetime!

All around excellent safari.
I absolutely loved my safari experience. Everyone on staff was so warm and welcoming and went out of their way to make myself and all the other guests comfortable. It felt more like being welcomed into the family than just a guest. Everything was well planned out and the communication was excellent. The trackers and rangers were very knowledgeable and readily shared animal facts and stories. The tours were all incredible. I enjoyed the variety between the private game reserve where we could off road and have close up encounters with animals and Kruger. Kruger is gorgeous and classic safari experience, but the animals typically are further away from the road. The bush walk and the sunrise and sundowner drives through the nature reserve were my favorite activities. The lodge was super comfortable and safe. And I cannot say enough about the food—absolutely delicious! I cannot recommend this safari enough. Would definitely do it all over again!

A great experience I won't forget.
It was well organized. Easy to jump in. From the first contact with them to Joberg to the reserve.
Every day we have something nice to do and I met interesting people along the way.
Totally worthy. I came back from the trip recharged and with a bag full of nice memories.

We were a group of four who immensely enjoyed our 3-day safari - at all levels, really.
Communication with Viva Safaris via email, pick-up and transport from airport hotel to Tremisana Lodge + the Kruger Park.
The absolute highlights: the evening drive, the full day in the Kruger and the Blyde River Canyon stop.
