This experience was below our expectation. The given evaluation is mainly justify by the poor quality of accommodation. This is not the best option in terms of cost/benefit. For the price paid, we felt a lack of comfort on this experience. The lodge was quite disappointing: the lounge was very outdated, need some renovations particularly in bathroom, our bed sheets were coloured and very used, the room had a bad smell, we didn’t had any hands towel and the amenities available had really bad quality. As a good side: All employees at Viva safari were very polite and helpful. Finally, keep in mind that this is Balule Reserve Game (in great Kruger) but outside the official perimeter of national park. It took about an hour from our lodge to the park.

We absolutely loved our experience with Viva Safaris! We saw 4 of the big 5 on the first day's sunset drive on the private reserve and saw plenty more in Kruger Park on the second day (though we weren't able to off-road within the national park). The food was delicious every night, the rooms were comfortable, and every single guide we had was hilarious, kind, and excellent at their jobs. The one downside was the drive to and from Johannesburg actually took far longer than initially estimated - from pickup at our hotel until arriving at the reserve was ~8 hours, and the way back took almost 12, though we had stops along the way. I'm sure it's difficult to coordinate pickups with so many groups on different packages, but there were likely ways to make the trip more efficient for guests, where hours were added to the journey. Big shout out to our favorite guide KG, "King George", for some of the biggest laughs we've experienced in a long time.

We took a 7 day safaria and didn't Want to leave. It was so amazing. Everything about it was fantastic...the people the food and the animals. We stayed at Marcs tree house and loved every minute of it. Or guides were awesome...one morning we saw the big 5 before 11:30. Thanks Victor for that. A amazing day..

Collection from Joburg 7 hour journey there and 9 back in a small Toyota van. Very crampt and uncomfortable. Lunches not included as detailed in some descriptions. Accomodation very basic, dated with little upkeep. Meals also very basic with little choice. Kitchen hygiene standards were poor. Drinks including water availability was limited at the camp to when bar open from 7pm to 10pm only. We did the 3day safari. Only one good Krougar safari day out of the 3 days. 2 days effectively traveling but you start 9am first day, finish 9pm. Day 2, 7am to 5pm, Day 3 5.30am till 7pm. We did, however, see the big 5. Next time it will be with more basic comforts and not with Viva which would appear not to have invested or give much consideration to the guests experience.
