Close encounters with animals in the wild
4/5

All services were all right, everyone tried to make us feel comfortable and the encounters with animals lived up to our expectations.
We missed more local food in the lodges and maybe a half-day cycling activity.

Great Safari with plenty wildlife
Overall rating
4/5

Not crowded, none commercial very private Safari experience. Plenty animals to see. Although this park lacks number of predators. Not many lions, no hyenas, no cheetahs. There were leopards, but did not see them.
However, many giraffes, elephants, buffaloes and other grazing game. Variety of birds were amazing. The scenery and change of vegetation was remarkable.

Brilliant experience with good service and rangers.
4/5

My wife and I did a 4 day package and really enjoyed our time. Rangers Eva and Sam were particularly very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Rex was moody at times which was disappointing.

The lodges are safe and decently furnished. The meals provided were fantastic and great quality. Especially the morning breakfasts and dinners. The kitchen staff always happy with a smile on their faces. The morning drives and sunsets drives were eventful and animals plenty. The bush walk was good fun (aside from Rex who was moody).

We found the owners a little strange as they would appear for dinner and then avoid sitting or saying at least hi to the guests. Quite grumpy to say the least.

I would urge Viva to include a tshirt in their price or charge $10 extra as this is required on bush walks (most people we noticed didn't have camo clothing and got shouted at by Rex - very embarrassing.

Overall we would recommend Viva as good value, good staff, lovely lodges and food and good effort overall!

Excellent value for money
4/5

We did a 3 day safari in Amboseli in November and had an excellent time. Communication with the agency was a bit slow before the trip, but once on the road everything worked out perfectly well. We were just a group of two but had the car to ourselves, which made it possible to get just the programme we wanted. Our driver/guide went out of his way to show us the best of Amboseli and delivered much more than we could have expected.

Solid experience, knowledgeable guide
4/5

No complaints could be made. Rama was very good answering all initial queries. Otto was very knowledgeable and good company.
Saw 3 of the big 5. no rhino, no leopard.
Driving from Dar Es Salaam to Mikumi took 7 hours which is okay as you see the country, but if you cant handle the heat, it can be a long old ride!
