A great family experience!
Reasonable all round. Eveyone was friendly. If there were issues they were minor and was all sorted out.

Enjoyable!
Communication during the planning phase was excellent. Less than a 12-hour turnaround time (allowing for time zone differences). Instructions on pick-up location, what to pack, what to wear, etc was all very detailed. All the drivers we had were pleasant to deal with and confident regarding what they had to deliver. Professional yet friendly.

Full on
It was comprehensive and we we constantly viewing. I would suggest flying into Kruger from Joburg as the 6-7hour bus journey was a little labourious

Safari surprises every day
We had a fantastic trip to Kruger National Park with Viva Safaris, with two destinations and therefore different experiences in each. We received superb hospitality, good, clean accommodation and they even catered for vegetarians and vegans.
The safari tours were well structured and informative and most of all, great fun. Some days the animals were quite determined not to be seen but the expert guides always found them in the end! The safari vehicles offered great views and shelter from the sun and we were never overcrowded. We also had bush walks (sturdy shoes/boots recommended) which were so enjoyable too.
Overall, the experiences we had were amazing and we hope to return in the future and would definitely use Viva Safaris again. They surpassed expectations on every level.
All staff were very friendly and personable, helping to create a memorable experience.

Amazing
The tour itself was really amazing. I had problems with Piero with my bookings before hand though. Paid the deposit and he continuously failed to reply to my emails regarding securing the booking stating he never received the deposit. However after he rejected my calls he sent me somebody else's number who resolved the issue weeks later. The tour itself was amazing. Our whole group loved it. Shout out to Victor who is such a legend. Always happy and helpful. All the staff on safari were great. Bus drivers to kitchen staff.. everyone was amazing.

Lovely place and amazing people
I stayed at Tremisana with Viva Safari.
People working there are really nice and the place is affordable and lovely. I would only say that may be the location is not the best, as you can't see a lot of animals given that the surroundings are dry. But this is nature!
However, compared to other safaris they do have a pick up and drop off service to Johannesburg which makes things easier for people travelling by myself like me! I went to South Africa for business and stayed some extra days for a Safari.. and it's an amazing experience!!!!
May be there are other places in better locations, but the charm of the staff and they way you feel there makes every penny worth to!
