So many different moments, sights, drives, people, accommodations - just GREAT! Never to forget!
It was such a great experience! Viva Safari (our tour operator) did a great job by showing us so many different aspects of the South African wildlife, the differences of Krueger NP and the Private Game Reserves as well as the struggling of Rehabilitation Centers for animals. We stayed in different lodges, which was also very exciting. All the people we met were so friendly, hosting an really loved what they do. We had a wonderful time and will definitely do it again!

South Africa is a stunningly beautiful place and well worth a visit. It is also modern and sophisticated
We really enjoyed Pilanesberg and our game drives were the highlight of our trip. We saw a lot of amazing wildlife and really enjoyed the beautiful scenery. Our lodge was lovely and made us feel very spoilt

Contrasting
Loved Kruger and our guide. Crazy weather but the animals were very cool to see.
Tremisana was good and the Tree houses adequate.
Blackouts annoying but added to the vibe.

Once in a lifetime experience
Our South Africa family holiday was a total blast! Maybe the best ever. South Africa is so blessed with natural beauty, including the people. And the wildlife? Second to none, IMHO. Joburg has so much history while Cape Town is one the most beautiful cities in the world! Definitely South Africa is a must travel destination.

Spectacular 😍
We traveled to South Africa for a family holiday in March. We choose Kruger National Park for our safari destination and Nhlalala Travel for our tour guide. We stayed in the Kruger Gate Hotel which was fabulous. We did a sunset safari, full day private safari and a sunrise safari. We were very lucky as we managed to see the big 5. Our private safari guide was so patient and this enabled us to have a wonderful experience. After our safari we returned to Johannesburg and flew to Cape Town for the second part of our trip.

tour guide or at least that he has a better mood goin in to the Kruger park it’s for me a one lifetime experience end it’s not nice if some one is holding you back from enjoying it. But after all was it great end thenk you for this amazing experience. Oowh an other thing tipping is mostly for the survives we pay Al ready a lot for stying ther or make it more expensive so we don’t have to tip or make it an unforgettable experience that the crue is working on it becouse then I wanne tip end I did not do that even tho I was prepared for it I had a lot of cash with me. But the people working ther wher nice don’t get me rong but deff not feld like tipping for work that the have to do (including salary) but to make it an extra level of experience like (smiley Hakuna Matata) is a gift 💝

Far exceeds your expectations
Really enjoyed my safari with Viva Tours in South Africa; the 6 day safari was a luxury because I had time to do 2 full days in Kruger Park and numerous game drives in their private reserve to ensure I saw all of the big five animals as well as numerous interesting birds species, and zebras, giraffes, hippos, kudu, waterbuck, hyena, and so on. We were extremely lucky to see a pack of African Wild Dogs, one of the rarest species in Kruger!
The visit to an animal rescue and rehabilitation centre was extremely special; the care and knowledge that they bring to not for the wildlife but the wider community and the challenges that are faced to balance tourism, argiculture, and human needs.
The landscape of South Africa was far more varied and beautiful than I expected. I am awed by the Drakensberg Mountains!

Stunning diverse natural beauty
Cape Town has so much to offer, stunning sea views, beautiful beaches, mountains, vineyards and wildlife nearby.
Our experience of penguins, whales, dolphins and baboons was amazing . Then the big 5 at Aquila Game Reserve was a hit.
A sunset cruise in Table Bay was breathtaking.
The food was great quality and superb.Food markets very vibey.
Places visited like Stellenbosch, Franschoek, Gordon’s Bay and Hermanus plus the Hemel en Arde wine route was all possible in an our 2 week visit, including a surf at Big Bay.
