Amazing time in South Africa - the best within 3 weeks, thank you
5/5

We wanted to see as much of South Africa as possible and combine the round trip with surfing holidays. Viatu made it possible.
The trip was tailored exactly to our wishes. Alessandro helped us to get the best out of 3 weeks of holiday and to make the trip as varied as possible. He took our wishes into account, but also pointed out what didn't make much sense. The result was a versatile round trip with great surf lessons in Muizenberg.
Because of the easy way how we communicated with our Viatu expert, it felt like planning our holidays with a friend. It made it really flexible and perfectly suitable for our needs. As well during the trip he always was reachable via Whatsapp. The accommodations he suggested were just wonderful and a perfect mix of everything we needed.
Thank you.

Great attention to detail and amazing customised experiences
5/5

We had the most incredible safari experience in Tanzania with Viatu. It was our first time in Africa, and now we can't wait to travel there again! Our wildlife encounters were incredible and we learnt so much from the guides. We also had unique cultural experiences and learnt some Kiswahili.

Thanks a lot Simone and the whole Viatu team for this journey of a lifetime

Amazing first safari experience
5/5

y husband and I recently went on our first safari in Namibia with Viatu, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. The trip went as planned, and a big thank you to Taryn, who customised our experience according to all our preferences.

We loved the attention to detail, the unique wildlife encounters, and the seamless organization that made our safari with Viatu an adventure of a lifetime. We can't wait to explore more with Viatu in the future!

Had a 12-day dream vacation in Namibia, exploring Etosha's wildlife, nature hikes in Damarland, Swakopmund's Sandwich Harbour Bay adventures, and witnessing Sossusvlei's iconic dunes. The hot air balloon ride over the desert was surreal! Planning and booking with Viatu was a breeze, making every moment stress-free and immensely enjoyable!

Viatu set a new benchmark for my future travels!
5/5

I booked a self-drive trip in Namibia with Viatu, and it was fantastic! Booking was easy and straightforward. Driving through Namibia, I saw amazing dunes and beautiful wildlife like oryx and desert elephants. Thanks to Viatu, the whole journey was hassle-free. Highly recommended!

5/5

We had the most incredible time in Namibia, thank you for planning such an amazing trip.

We were lucky enough to get to see the wild desert horses which is an experience we will never forget.

The support we had from the team before, during and after our trip was great!

We will definitely be travelling again soon with Viatu and would highly recommend them if you are looking for a sustainable off the beaten path experience.

Viatu made my trip to South Africa unforgettable!
5/5

I traveled last year to Cape Town and added on a safari in Sabi Sands and to Viatu, everything was smooth and well-organized. Sabi Sands offered incredible wildlife sightings, and Cape Town's vibrant streets, coastal beauty, and lush winelands were a treat. I look forward to booking my next African adventure with them!

Looking for excellence in a tour operator? Search no more, Viatu has got you covered!
5/5

Viatu created an unforgettable holiday for us in Namibia. Everything was taken care of: a great rental car, excellent lodges, breathtaking locations and excellent food. The dunes, safari and the fantastic lodges were incredible. We enjoyed the trip driving ourselves for 2 weeks with our family.
Our personal highlight were the every day sunsets and the elephant safari in Camp Kipwe. We will definitely come back to Namibia again!

So much easier than I thought
5/5

Booking with Viatu was a breeze. We used one of the trip templates that was on their website and we customised it to our liking. For the check out we had a few questions. Our travel consultant Alessandro looked after us every step of the way. He even explained everything to me in Spanish which was very helpful as Africa can be complex. We were a bit concerned about the cancellation policies during the Omicron wave - especially since my friend and I arrived in South Africa from two different countries. That, however, was never an issue. The whole booking was flexible including hotels, car rental, safari lodge and our activities. Also, the whole digital travel itinerary turned out to be amazing. We didn't have any issues at all. Alessandro and his team recommended wonderful lodges and restaurants along the way.

We had many highlights but we particularly enjoyed the Mosaic Lagoon Lodge in Stanford near Hermanus. The staff was so lovely, the location incredible and the food to die for. The pineapple house in Cape Town, Seapoint was also a wonderful recommendation. The staff is so welcoming. Their design is refreshing and they make a huge effort to be sustainable in all aspects.

We absolutely loved our trip and can't wait for the next one! Thank you, Alessandro & Team Viatu.

We had a great trip with Viatu!
5/5

Viatu has very helpful staff. We could text message them via WhatsApp and got a response immediately. We appreciated the personal treatment.
Our daughter got sick right at the beginning of our trip and we were very happy with the help of our local guide from Viatu finding a doctor and stuff.
