An Adventurous Journey into the Wild: Wildlife Encounters, Warm Hospitality, and Memorable Moments
I booked a three-day package and was picked up directly from my hotel in Johannesburg. The drive to Kruger was quite long, taking approximately 6 hours or more. Upon arrival at the Tremisana Safari Lodge in the late afternoon, we immediately embarked on our first trip around the lodge in the Greater Kruger area. We were fortunate to spot some elephants and a lion during the excursion.
After the trip, we enjoyed a delightful dinner under a large tree in the bush. The food was beautifully cooked with a lot of care and attention.
The following day, we spent the entire day exploring Kruger National Park (BEST PART OF THE TRIP), with lunch at a restaurant located inside the park.
In the evening, we reached Marks Tree House where our luggage was already waiting for us. The "tents" (which I personally consider more like huts) were acceptable for a night's stay. However, I would have preferred a room with its own toilet and shower. It is possible to upgrade or ensure the right accommodation when making the initial booking.
At Marks Tree House, we were treated to a delicious homemade dinner and gathered around a large fire, creating a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere for the evening.
The next morning, we embarked on a walking safari around the neighborhood. Although there wasn't much activity during this particular walk, it was still enjoyable. In my opinion, the morning walk could have been extended to three hours to enhance the experience.
On our way back to Johannesburg, we visited a viewpoint that offered stunning vistas of rolling hills and a beautiful canyon. The restaurant where we had lunch on both legs of the journey to and from Johannesburg provided a variety of high-quality food options.
All in all, I would recommend booking at least an additional night since the travel time to and from Johannisburg is quite long.
I highly recommend Viva Safari to everyone. The entire trip was well organized, and the staff members were exceptionally nice and helpful. It is evident that this is more than just a job for them.
Thank you, Viva Safari. I hope to visit again in the future.

Great Day Trip
Spent a wonderful day snorkeling with guide Omar then later visited Sinda Island. Rama organized the trip on very short notice and it turned out very well. I have nothing but thanks for the whole trip. It was much fun and quite exciting diving in the clear blue waters.
Great experience
Had a great trip to Pilanesberg - we saw rhinos, elephants, lions chasing down zebra, hippos and more! Well organised and a very informative guide.

The Mt Longonot hike was so excellent and we'll managed by Norine Forbes under c/o Mr Antony
The overall experience on the trip was so wonderful.Coordination between the Norine Forbes team and us the hikers was so excellent. They didn't let us down on communication. Whereve we were supposed to be, it happened on time and professionally.
About the other issue of services, no member of our team complained of anything. They did their tasks in good time and also controlled every bit of the tour. Norine Forbes never value money more than the service. Infact what they did to us was more valuable than the payments which we did. I personally as the leader of the hiking team applaud them for every service they did.
I recommend Norine Forbes Safaris for job well done and if possible for many hikers and tourists to use this company because it's reliable. Thankyou

Awesome
I loved the entire experience with Tedwats on a tour to Maasai mara. From start to end was an amazing experience. If you are looking for adventure and enjoyful tour, Tedwats is the best so far.

Interesting one
Hey There! It was an amazing trip with our driver David! He is a very safe and experienced driver and so aware that everything is going nice. I went with a unknown group and I was very lucky, that they were sooo cool. We saw a lot of animals (only unlucky with rhinos). The only thing I would have appreciate more would be the possibility that we all would go in the same camp. But it seems like we were booking different camps for the nightstay. If this would be otherwise treatable, i would prefer to stay with the group of the safarai game drive at the same camp.
And actually there are a bit too many cars in the park. But thats more a governmental thing.

Best choice ever!
What a remarkable experience! We selected a 4 days safari which included Tarangeri, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. First of all, Daudi prepared a good overview of the program which included the itinerary per day, the accommodation, meals, drinks, etc.
Secondly, everything went according to plan. One flat tire and an issue with the battery made our journeys even more unreal, impressing how everyone helps each other in order to quickly solve the issues!
No words to describe how beautiful the landscapes and the animals are.
We always had hot meals for lunch and the quality was amazing, a lot of variety and huge quantities of food. The accommodation also met our expectations.
I would also like to mention the amazing work of our guide, Aron. Very friendly, polite and experienced guide that provides us the best experience ever. He was always giving us clear explanations, answering all questions, making fun and most important making sure the best spots and animals were found. Definitely recommend to have a safari with him.
Daudi was always available to arrange rides to the hotels and airports, always on time.
We truly recommend you to choose Meijo Safaris if you want to have an unforgettable experience with everything planned according to your expectations.

Amazing, professionnel agence
we first arrived in the massai village, an incredible experience, we did not wear the traditional clothes. Geoffrey and William really took the time to explain to us the custom of this community, to go around the village with a Massai and finish while dancing together. The next 2 days took us on a safari in search of animals, we saw lions, impalas, wildebeest, buffaloes, zebras, birds, lizards, crocodiles, hippopotamuses, monkeys, girages, foxes, vultures, facochers and more. It was magical, and our guides made it better. I really fell in love with them.
goeffrey and william accompanied us throughout the experience which was filled with laughter, dancing, really eyes filled with stars
Thank you so munch
I recommend this agency with eyes closed
