Review of a four-day Kruger safari from Johannesburg, with Big Five drives, bush walks, a starry braai, Blyde Canyon, and practical travel tips.

“10/10 safari experience. Very well organised, from collection to the game drives. Lovely friendly staff and very knowledgable safari guides. The food was amazing and they went above and beyond to accommodate for dietary reqs. Having breakfast and seeing an elephant walk past the lodge on multiple days was surreal! Lovely pool at Tremisana and time to enjoy the sun. Would highly recommend Viva Safaris”
