Exciting Safari
5/5

We had a great and exciting Safari. In one week we visited 3 national parks and the crater. We enjoyed the trip a lot and we had so many Highlights on our Safaries. The guides are very good organized, they are really nice an helpful. All in all it was one of the best vacations I ever had.

Wonderful day-tour safari to the More Game Reserve to a fair price
5/5

Communications up front was very good, MG and Nicky were willing and helpful to answer all our questions. Our guide Sox picked us up very early so that we had a beautiful sunrise just before entering the park. Food and drinks were provided and according to our chosen options. The tour was very nice, we could come up to a lot of animals very closely and had good explanations from our guide. All in all a experience we would recommend!

Legendary!
5/5

This is a young company but everyone working there from management to staff to guides have all been working in top positions in the industry for more than a decade. The level of comfort we had during our tour was difficult to imagine. Our vehicle was almost new, absolutely top notch and the best I saw in the parks. For lunch, instead of having a lunch box like everyone else (even those staying at the really high end camps), we always had a full table set for lunch with forks, knives, and even wine stand, wine and, on some occasions, even hot food on pots.

The guide was the best (Benson), he was polite but always enthusiastic and engaging us in all the stories he had to tell us. I am not back in Tokyo but I definitely want to return for a longer experience and there is no other company I will consider.

Thanks to everyone, you are the best.

Perfect from the start, esp for the ethical tourist
5/5

Right from my first contact with Jessica by email, we were treated exceptionally well.  Jessica responded promptly and in detail to all my information requests, as well as offering a very reasonably priced 8 day safari.  And importantly, through the company they support an orphanage for Kony victims in Kampala.  This ethical philosophy of supporting and giving to others at community level is very strong within the company and a massive drawcard for us.
Martin was a fantastic guide throughout our time.  From picking us up at the airport to the final goodbye we cannot fault his professionalism, knowledge, caring nature and patience to find us the best experience.  And through his guidance we saw everything and more that we wanted to see - from lions in the trees and elephants at the gate, to mongoose under the van and leopards at the window, just amazing.  I have dreamed of this since a young boy and can only say my dream has been realised.
Uganda is a beautiful place and was not voted by the BBC as the friendliest country in Africa for nothing.  Every day was like being somewhere different - from grassland savannah to lakes to rainforest jungle.  We stayed in mid-range accommodation and were blessed with exceptional service and wonderful food.  I have to mention Agnes at the Simba Safari Camp and all the people at the Buhoma Community Rest Camp , the stunning views at the Acacia Lodge looking down onto Lake Bunyonyi (http://www.arcadialodges.com/lake-bunyonyi.html - think I would love to retire there!!) and the impala herd outside our window at the Acacia Cottages at Lake Mburo.
We did two gorilla treks in Bwindi and I would have to recommend doing two rather than one.  Each was unique and gave us plenty of time to pick up and put down the cameras, to look through the lens or just sit and absorb where we were.
When you go make sure you take some school supplies for St Matthews School while doing the Community Walk in Bwindi.  This school and its staff are doing an incredible job with dirt floors, 60 kids to a class, so few resources but a spirit that lifts your heart.  They also have a number of orphans and Batwa children who would  benefit from your support.  We'll be back again to do what we can - and also to experience Rwanda with our friends at Arrive Africa Safaris.
I utterly recommend Arrive Africa Safaris and Uganda - people, places and smiles you will never forget.

Excellent experience!
5/5

I was in contact with Patti, who was very helpful and prompt in her responses to my requests and she was able to tailor my itinerary, while also offering additional alternatives. I traveled solo and stayed three nights at Tremisana Lodge and the rooms were clean, spacious, and there was actually hot water, and the food was great. I've been on plenty of safaris and I'm fairly simple when it comes to amenities, but there were more than enough at Tremisana Lodge. Maybe the wi-fi could have been a bit more reliable, but then again I wasn't there for that in the first place, so it was a plus it was available at all.

I can't say enough about all of the staff, they were all very welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. From the chefs, to the guides, and lodge staff (Rex, Eva, Robin, Elias, Pretty, and anyone else I may have missed, a big thank you! You all made my experience an incredible one!) Each guide worked very hard to find a wide array of wildlife, so that was much appreciated. Although, I have been to South Africa before, it was my first time to Kruger National Park and the surrounding areas.

For reference, I did the four day safari and my itinerary included game drives, a bush walk, and bush braai in Balule Game Reserve, with one full day in Kruger National Park, which is open-attached to Balule, so the animals can roam freely between each. We were able to find lions (lioness & cubs), black/white rhino, zebra, giraffe, hippo, hyena, waterbuck, jackal, cape buffalo, wildebeest, elephants, and even a verreaux's eagle owl (very rare), to name a few. All in all, the experience was just what I was looking for, time out and away from the daily grind while also enjoying the beautiful landscape and it did not disappoint.

In addition, Viva Safaris pick up and drop off in Jo'burg so that was a huge perk. On my return to Jo'Burg, my itinerary included a short stop-off at Blyde River Canyon, which was absolutely amazing! The views were incredible and definitely capped off a great trip to ZAR.

Again, I just want to send a warm thank you to all of the staff and guides who made my stay an incredible one!
I appreciate your hospitality, flexibility, and hard work to provide a great experience during my stay and I would highly recommend Viva Safaris.

Hope to see you again soon!
