Absolutely reliable
Always helpfull, before and during the trip. Always on time. Very friendly staff. They provided us a nice hotel in Arusha. The food was very good both on the trekking and on the safari.
If I visit Tanzania again I will choose them.

We had a great experiance real value for money.
We had a fantastic time seeing 4 of the big 5 and leopards. The tour was great on time, minimal fuss and considering there were 24 of us we were all catered for. Transport and guides were excellent and a big thankyou to Samwel for all his hard work to make it a memorable experience for all of us. I cannot recommend them enough.

Amazing visit to South Africa / Kruger
I am not a rich person. But I enjoy rich experiences: viva safaris allowed me to have an amazing experience in South Africa, make our group feel special, see the big 5, eat incredible meals and not have to spend a lot of money to do so. We stayed at several of Viva's properties: Marc's Treehouse, Tremisana lodge, and the wonderful and luxurious Katekani Tented Camp. The latter made me feel like I was a millionaire it was so luxurious. Piero cooked the most amazing meals for us and we had the whole place to our selves. Tremisana is a wonderful place to start a safari as it is comfortable and immediately you feel immersed in Africa with Warthogs and Monkeys roaming the property! Viva is a well put together safari company that is extremely well coordinated across complicated logistics. It feels seamless, but obviously must take a lot of work to coordinate across so many people and activities and have it feel effortless! I highly recommend this company and its various properties. Do make sure you know what you want in terms of accommodations: we signed up for "budget" at the tented camp and while it was great - our older members wanted a bit more luxury so we upgraded to Katekani from Marc's Treehouse. Viva was incredibly accommodating and for that I will be forever grateful. Thank you Viva Safaris! I will recommend you to many others!

Completely stress-free fun!
My fiancé and I had an amazing time in Tanzania thanks to Makasa Safaris. Selma organized every detail for us--we just told her what we were interested in and she put together an excellent itinerary for us. Everything worked completely smoothly: the transfers, the drivers, the dates and times, the activities...it was all perfect. As well, the safari guide was exceptional--thanks for everything, Jamal!

Great trip
In addition to the more common safaris centered around the "big five", we also wanted to see Lemurs and Gorillas while in that part of the world. We also wanted to see different ecosystems. Since Africa is so far from home, we decided to take a little more time to explore while in the neighborhood. We had 27 days including travel to do it. Africa is a big place and travel from point to point can consume a significant chunk of time and budget if not planned properly. Christopher did a nice job of providing options, suggesting changes (upgrades, things to pass on, what to see, what not to see) how to prioritize, when and where to go, seeing more animals and less fellow tourists, efficient routing and staying on top of schedule changes. He did all of this within our timeline and budget. He actually had been to all these places and had first hand knowledge.
The final agenda Chris came up with was superb and the venues were outstanding. We saw everything we wanted to see and a whole lot more, in multiple habitats. The camps/eco-resorts were comfortable and almost all were quite elegant. The tour operators were all top notch and professional. Timing was critical and all the operators Chris chose came through. All of the tour operators chosen, without hesitation went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and accommodated special requests. To pull it off without a hitch was a challenge in coordination and logistics. Chris got it done for us.
Thank you Chris for organizing such an incredible trip!
