Tour guides that really care!
I would highly recommend Viva Safari’s! The staff is super friendly and communicates well with any needs that may arise. The tour guides worked really hard to get as many animal sightings as possible.

"Incredible Wildlife, Expert Guides, and Seamless Safari Adventures!"
We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Viva Safari — everything was brilliantly organised and ran like clockwork. The entire operation is clearly very professional, with enthusiastic and highly knowledgeable guides who truly love what they do.
Our safari experience included a wonderful mix of sunrise and sunset game drives, bush walks (which were thrilling!), and event meals out in the bush — all of which made the experience feel incredibly immersive. We always knew what to expect thanks to the clear communication from the team, which helped us make the most of every moment.
We stayed at Tremisana Lodge, which is right in the heart of the bush. It was an amazing location — we regularly saw wildlife right outside our accommodation, including lions, hyenas, elephants, and even honey badgers! The camp had a very sociable atmosphere, and the guides were always around for a chat or to answer questions, which made the whole experience even more engaging.
The food was plentiful and of a good standard, and everything was very well catered. If you're looking for great value for money, with the focus firmly on being out on safari as much as possible, Viva Safari is an excellent choice. The guides go out of their way to ensure you see as much as possible, and even the transfers and rest stops were well planned and efficient.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Viva Safari — you will not be disappointed!

Very organized, professional safari- especially great for first timers
From the booking process to the final drop off Viva Safaris was a fantastic choice for my first safari. I did the 4 day, 3 night from Johannesburg tour. As a solo traveler it was nice to have different people on all the safaris and at the meals. But I was most impressed with the guides and staff. Their level of knowledge about the animals blew me away, and they took great care in trying to find as many animals as possible. Even the drivers to and from Joberg shared a wealth of information. Lodging was great, food was amazing. 10/10 experience!
