We joined this trip after our amazing Cape Town trip through Cape extreme . We absolutely loved the treehouse accomodation, the most delicious but simple South African food. The staff were wonderful and Quinten the ranger and assistant manager was incredibly knowledgeable. We had a wonderful bush walk with him.

Shaw and the whole crew at viva safaris were extremely welcoming and professional. They went out of their way to give us the best experience. We saw all of the big 5 in one trip! Thanks for that unforgettable experience!

Awesome 5 day safari. This was my first visit to South Africa and experiencing a safari. My whole stay was just amazing. I saw so many animals that I only saw on TV till now. Saw the Big 5 but also saw zebras,giraffes, rhinos, warthugs,monkeys,different colourful birds,vultures ...😊😊😊😊😊 The sunset drive and dinner in the African Bush was just a great experience on the first night there at the Tremisana Lodge. Then we had the morning bush walk the next day which was amazing too. Both accommodations were great but the 4 nights at the Treehouse was awesome. You can hear the animals at night (hyenas,leopard,water buffalos). My treehouse was perfect.i loved it. loved walking to it especially at night😃.under the stars and hearing the animals. The view and sounds in the morning when you wake up ...wowwww!!connected to nature.And when walking to the breakfast area, impalas walking next to you, kudus grazing away... Awesome staff and guides as well and great cooking.The food was delicious. Fabulous stay ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🦁🐆🦌🐃🦓🐗🐘🦒🦅🦜🦦🐾🐾

The whole experience was amazing. They picked us up at our hotel in Johannesburg and the trip down there was good. All of the staff were lovely and helpful. You ended up feeling like part of a family. The whole tour was very well organised with lots of opportunities to see animals. The food was good. The accomodation was slightly above basic but more than adequate. We spent two days in Kruger Park and the rest of the tours were around the campsite we stayed in. I would definitely recommend booking with this company. I would say if you look at a safari packing guide you don't need hiking boots just normal trainers will be fine and pack layers as it can be cold at night when you are travelling in a jeep. We stayed at the two locations and althought the treehouse was fine prefered the initial camp.
