Botswana with my son
The journey was fantastic! Everything went smooth as programmed, we have constantly been supported by Natasha via whatsapp so we felt really confident. Travelling alone with my 14-year-old son was a challenge and we are both definitely enthusiastic. The locations, the food, the tours were perfect for us. Organization TOP!

Great experience with Viatu and Natasha. High class support for our Namibia tour.
Everything with Natasha was great from the planning to the last day of the trip.
The car was waiting for us, all the lodges were the high level we expected, recommendations of what to do and where to do it, were perfect.
No doubt we got the value we expected and paid for.

Incredible customer service, flawless organization!
Organizing my self-drive trip through Namibia, with a final visit to the Victoria Falls, was truly fun and easy thanks to the invaluable support from Viatu. All the lodges suggested were far beyond our expectations, and the itinerary perfectly balanced moments of adventure, exploration, and relaxation. Thanks to their priceless help, we even managed to avoid missing our connecting flight at Johannesburg airport.
Namibia is an amazing country, and I highly recommend it to anyone. A special mention goes to Natasha, always ready to respond to my requests, enthusiastic, and attentive to understanding my interests. Trust her!

Mardi planned a fantastic trip, encompassing all of what we were looking for and more!
Mardi and Viatu were an incredible choice for planning our South Africa and Namibia honeymoon. From the start, Mardi provided several itinerary options at different price points and then worked closely with us to design the perfect trip. Everything was handled seamlessly, which let me focus entirely on enjoying the experience.
The Viatu platform is intuitive and user-friendly, laying out the entire trip clearly. Payment was simple—all major expenses were covered upfront by credit card, with only meals, fuel, and incidental costs left to us. That convenience made the whole process stress-free.
On the ground, we received VIP treatment everywhere we went. Since we came in with little idea of what to expect, Mardi made sure we hit all the top activities and attractions without missing a beat.
I’d 100% recommend Mardi and Viatu to anyone looking for an unforgettable African adventure!

Perfectly matched with our wishes
After just two calls with the travel agency, we have got a trip which fit perfectly to what we wanted. Considering activities, quality approaches and costs.
We have got perfect notes, considering what we should book upfront and what we book on site.
We have got a great app where we could see from where to go what the activities are, and which services are included.
Before we started the trip, we’ve got calls and emails with information about the country and what we have to do before like the visa.
All the necessary information we’ve got automatically.
We are very satisfied. It was our dream vacation.

Efficient and available
It was seamless from the very beginning.
Agent was polite, efficient, enthusiastic and listened to our requests.
Recommended tours were exceptional and the Viatu team were available and responsive throughout. They even reached out of their own accord to confirm our safety when there was news of wild fires in Namibia near our location.
We are already booking our next trip through them.

Mardi is like Johnnie-on-the-spot; Customer Service at its Best!
Mardi helped structure our 3-Week Self-Drive adventure throughout Namibia. We were interested in the meeting the people, learning the history, learning the geography of Namibia, driving the roads, exploring the desert ecology, exploring the coastal regions, experiencing what life in Namibia is like, experiencing village and tribal life, and, of course, enjoying a real life Safari! Mardi did not disappoint.
She worked out our accommodations to fit our budget and sense of adventure. I preferred rugged and my wife preferred luxury. Well, we did not do any camping at all (wife's choice), but we did do somewhere in the middle to luxury... Happy Wife on vacation wins out all the time 😊🥰😍.
When we needed to adjust dates, Mardi worked it out immediately. We we wanted to stay in one place longer and shorten our stay at another place, Mardi worked it out. When we had questions on cell phone coverage, navigating around the country, and understanding the differences in customs and traditions, Mardi was very helpful.
She was wonderful to work with. Three weeks in a country for the first time can be a daunting task, but Mardi helped to unravel the tight places.
She worked with us like we were family and not just clients. I definitely recommend Mardi to help plan your vacation. She is always available or will be shortly afterwards, no matter where you are located. We hope to see her in person when we visit South Africa.
Thank you very much Mardi. You are awesome!

Posted on Oct 27, 2025Wow Terrell, thank you for this incredible review! We're happy to hear that Mardi was able to structure such a comprehensive and unforgettable 3-week self-drive adventure in Namibia for you.
She truly is "Johnnie-on-the-spot," and we're so proud that she managed to weave together all your diverse interests—from the history and geography to the desert ecology, coastal regions, tribal life, and, of course, a real-life safari!
We'd love to help you plan your next trip whenever you're ready!

It is impossible to overstate how pleased we have been with the experience and support provided by the Viatu team, from the very first contact with Mardi, to the conclusion of our trip. The advice and support before and during the trip was exceptional, with extremely prompt responses to clarifications that we requested while traveling.
