Our safaris vary from cost effective two night lodge/tent safaris to 5 star luxury lodge safaris. Our diversity of wildlife safari experiences easily beat those of any competitor.

Excellent value for money
Just returned from a safari holiday to South Africa. We chose Viva Safaris for two reasons. Good reviews and Patti Landau!! Her excellent communication skills in answering all the information we requested and her warm personality gave us the confidence to go ahead.
Viva safaris is a well organised operation with an outstanding team.
The guides, kitchen staff and drivers were a pleasure to interact with and made the holiday so much more fun and enjoyable.
The only downside was the shower fittings and maybe some suitable accommodation for couples at Tremisana. The rooms are quite cramped with a double and two single beds !!
We will never forget Tremisana and Pumusa and take this opportunity to thank each and every one at Viva Safaris ( Patti, Ed, Rocky, Smiley,Andy and kitchen team at Tremisana) ( George, Nellie, Sanzo and Zakiel at Pumusa) for doing an awesome job. Though we did not get to see lions and leopards we did see an amazing array of animals. An incredible experience on the whole!!
Hope to be back one day soon to do it all again and hopefully see two of the big five we missed out on !!!
Well planned and executed
We booked a 7 Day Tremisana/Pumusa Kruger Hluhluwe and St Lucia Safari, 3 nights in Tremisana and 3 at Hluhluwe.
Pre booking - Patti, our main contact was brilliant. No question was too hard and all our queries got prompt responses. She was one of the key reason we opted for Viva safari of the numerous options available on the market.
Tour - Activities were carried out as stipulated on the brochure and whilst the operators juggled with the various groups and movements (behind the scenes), the program itself was carried out smoothly and always on time. You can rely on what they say you will get, at least it was our experience.
Facility Staff - Service with a smile. Pleasant, courteous and always willing to help. Dietary issues, no probs
Tour staff- knowledgeable in their roles and worked hard to ensure that sightings were given the best option. We saw plenty.
Facilities- Adequate, could do with a minor makeover, but nothing to complain about
In summary, we had a great ti e, met our objectives of the tour outcomes and we felt it delivered, hence ‘value for money’

Viva Safari was amazing and very helpful
Viva Safari take care of everything.
I had also a problem with my luggage that was lost in Etiopia. When arrived they took care of everything. I really appreciate it.
We saw a lot of animals was an amazing experience.
Rocky was my favourite guide. He spot animals and was very funny everytime!!!!
WOW Rocky.
Great value for the money
We just returned from our Safari with Viva Safari. We went on a a five night 6-day Safari and it was wonderful. I had gone on the Safari about 20 years ago with Oversea Adventure Travel. O. A. T. It also was excellent but it cost $15,000 for the two of us 20 years ago so I would assume now it's probably $30,000. This one was well worth price. They're charging which I thought was reasonable. We saw the big five and until numbers of other animals. We even saw a pack of 12 wild dogs which I understand is quite rare to see. The food was good. The guides were good and the accommodations were good. I took a video while I was on the Safari and I'll post a link below so you can watch it if you want to.

Magical experience
As a first time solo traveller, first time to Africa and safari, I have to say that my entire holiday experience was spectacular. The highlight was my safari which I booked through Viva Safari's. From the initial booking experience via email to the actual holiday itself, I have been nothing but impressed with their efficiency and friendly nature. I cannot fault any aspect of my safari, the lodges, the food, the information, communication, comfort, facilities, game drives and different experiences and value for money was clearly outstanding and magical. I never once felt alone and felt part of a big family the entire time. I will definitely be returning and would use and highly recommend Viva to anyone thinking of a safari. THANK YOU for making my trip so special.
