Excellent first trip to Namibia with focus on hiking and safari
5/5

This was my family's first time to Namibia, but we have traveled with Viatu many times. We traveled as a family of four with two adult children. We did not want to drive too much as we only had 9 nights and Viatu came with a perfect solution. Especially the three nights hike at Etendeka Mountain Lodge was something we will never forget. Viatu also helped out on the road with questions regarding travel time but also a restaurant booking when we got back to Windhoek. All the places were pristine clean, efficiently managed and people were exceptionally friendly. Never grew tired at watching the elephants in front of the lodge at the waterhole at Etosha Heights. Already busy thinking about our next trip!

The team personal & professional, the trip unique & exciting, the travel comfortable & substainable
5/5

I spend one of my most exciting and beautiful holidays with Viatu in Namibia. From unforgettable game drives, lodges with stunnig locations, delicious food and an adventurous cycling trip through the desert we got the full package. Even with some minor inconvenience caused by the airline Viatu supported us and made sure our trip remains perfect. Knowing that our holidays were not only relaxing and exciting at the same time, but also that all the partners support the local community and work sustainable. Which in this time is equally important to me as the whole journey. Would definitely book again and recommend this kind of travel to anyone who is interested in a unique experience away from mainstream travel

It was a really nice vacation with my family. We went for 8 days, did hiking, saw rock paintings and went on Safari. Viatu helped us on the road as well and all places were super clean and friendly. Have traveled with them before and would do it again!

Best holidays, super easy to book.
5/5

I wanted to go to Kruger with my family, so my friend recommended to book it with viatu. It was super easy to book and the vacation itself was just one of the best things i've ever done. We saw so many animals because the ranger knew exactly where to look for them and not only that, but he also had so much knowledge to share. And not to mention the food...just wow.

The whole experience was very pleasing and satisfactory, from booking to the actual journey incl. concierge support. The trip you suggested was well balanced (also for our budget) regarding accomodations offering a luxurious but unpretentious experience in Franschhoek/Quartier Francais, a more urban experience with great and very kind service in Cape Town/Home Suites Sea Point and, last but not least, an outstanding exprience at Klaserie Reserve/Camp George which was the highlight by far. Personally, this was my first safari and I couldn't have it imagined more entertaining, insightful and adventurous. We had a flight delay and you organized that we still managed to join ther very first game drive which was already spectacular. Generally, the game drives (especially due to our guide Jacques) were breathtaking and lots of fun, allowing us to discover the unique wilderness, beauty and sheer size and depth of Klaserie Reserve. We didn't just 'tick the Big 5 box', but learned a lot about different animals and species and also the needs and challenges for wildlife preservation. Game George/Simbavati was s superb accomodaton with kind, great service and delicious food (and drinks). The final dinner in the bush was the culinary highlight and will stick to our memories. Besides this, we also learned about the Camp's Story and the Founder's egagegmenet with charity (supporting local communities with education etc.) + lots of caring for it's own staff. This made the whole epxerience even better. All in all, this trip made an impact for us and we're more than happy to bock again with you.

My third trip with Viatu - and still amazing
5/5

I booked my trip with Viatu on short notice because I wanted to escape the cold weather. My travel agent Simone was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. She took the time to understand my interests and what I was looking for in a safari, and she recommended KZN as an off-the-beaten-track destination that would offer a more authentic and immersive experience. I was initially hesitant to go to KZN instead of the more popular Kruger National Park, but Simone assured me that I would not be disappointed.

And she was right! KZN is a beautiful and diverse region with a rich wildlife population. I saw so many rhinos, elephants, lions, leopards, and giraffes. I also loved the opportunity to interact with local communities and learn about their culture. Simone helped me arrange all of my transportation, accommodation, and activities, and she was always available to answer my questions.
I will be back for sure!
