Brilliant from Start to Finish
5/5

It was our first time doing a Safari and being in Africa in General. From the first interaction on Viatu's Website until completion of the trip the support was brilliant. The website itself is super user friendly and made the planning of the trip so much easier than comparable websites. And then we had our call with Viatu and they put together a brilliant safari which exceeded our expectations. Also between booking and actually doing the safary the support is brilliant - from general tips to playlists and book recommendations, Viatu has thought of everything. Especially for first-timers, I absolutely recommend booking the safary through Viatu.

Very good travel agency with experience that you can feel.
5/5

We had an extremely positive experience with Viatu travel agency. The communication and support were excellent. The service in all accommodations was also first class. Although I can't judge the price-performance ratio exactly as I haven't looked into it extensively, we were satisfied overall. We spent 21 nights in 7 accommodations along the Garden Route, starting from Cape Town with our own vehicle and returning to Kruger Park via Johannesburg with their service. Even when we had a health emergency, the travel agency offered full support and was available at any time. The clear route and defined addresses were very helpful, and the recommendations for highlights at the different locations saved us mistakes. We would definitely book it again through Viatu.

Amazing experience, great itinerary
5/5

I booked a custom made 11 day trip through Namibia. There were a few hiccups along the way, but they were dealt with and smoothed out by the Viatu team. Overall, my experience working with Alex on the team was incredible! She made the itinerary very straightforward and easy to follow the entire way, and advised me so much on what to do in each of the places that I visited. I feel she went above and beyond to make my trip as seamless as possible, and I really appreciate that. Overall, great job by the team.

5/5

Viato organised an amazing Garden Route adventure for my family. Every detail was taken care of from accommodation, travel logistics, destinations and activities. We had beautiful accommodations with scenic views. The whole family enjoyed the mixture of activities with something for everyone, from relaxation time to fun hiking adventures. We also had delicious food and unforgettable wildlife encounters. Viato created a great trip that truly let us explore South Africa's beauty.

Best experts about surf and safari in Africa
5/5

Viatu organised a trip in the Garden Route for me and three other friends. We loved our safari at Kariega, and the surf and the bungee jumping added lots of excitement to the trip! I definitely recommend Viatu for those looking to explore Africa.

Amazing time in South Africa - the best within 3 weeks, thank you
5/5

We wanted to see as much of South Africa as possible and combine the round trip with surfing holidays. Viatu made it possible.
The trip was tailored exactly to our wishes. Alessandro helped us to get the best out of 3 weeks of holiday and to make the trip as varied as possible. He took our wishes into account, but also pointed out what didn't make much sense. The result was a versatile round trip with great surf lessons in Muizenberg.
Because of the easy way how we communicated with our Viatu expert, it felt like planning our holidays with a friend. It made it really flexible and perfectly suitable for our needs. As well during the trip he always was reachable via Whatsapp. The accommodations he suggested were just wonderful and a perfect mix of everything we needed.
Thank you.

Great attention to detail and amazing customised experiences
5/5

We had the most incredible safari experience in Tanzania with Viatu. It was our first time in Africa, and now we can't wait to travel there again! Our wildlife encounters were incredible and we learnt so much from the guides. We also had unique cultural experiences and learnt some Kiswahili.

Thanks a lot Simone and the whole Viatu team for this journey of a lifetime

5/5

Had a 12-day dream vacation in Namibia, exploring Etosha's wildlife, nature hikes in Damarland, Swakopmund's Sandwich Harbour Bay adventures, and witnessing Sossusvlei's iconic dunes. The hot air balloon ride over the desert was surreal! Planning and booking with Viatu was a breeze, making every moment stress-free and immensely enjoyable!

Viatu set a new benchmark for my future travels!
5/5

I booked a self-drive trip in Namibia with Viatu, and it was fantastic! Booking was easy and straightforward. Driving through Namibia, I saw amazing dunes and beautiful wildlife like oryx and desert elephants. Thanks to Viatu, the whole journey was hassle-free. Highly recommended!
