Viva Expeditions Reviews 

Our trip worked seemlessly. Good choice of accommodation, tours and advice.

Everything happened when, where and how it was meant to. No issues with the organisation of my trip.

Very helpful, quick to respond, got me flights when I'd left it a bit late. Good tips from staff who have travelled

Cannot fault our experience, informative attentive and great at communicating and keeping us updated on pick ups etc

We had an AMAZING experience through Viva Expeditions -- the booking process was a breeze, the trip itself surpassed all expectations, and the peace of mind we had knowing that we could contact Viva for any/everything made it all extremely comfortable!

Much more than I could have imagined. Excellent in every way

We were picked up at the airport and driven to our accommodation where we quickly dropped off our bags to start the half day tour to Brazil side of the falls. Our guide quickly got us through the border crossings and was very knowledgeable of the area.

Next day was the full day on the Argentine side, with 2 of us doing the boat ride and the other 2 walking the lower circuit. Our guide arranged for a golf cart to help the walkers travel a kilometre to/from part of the circuit.
The optional boat ride was a thrill and a great experience to see the falls up close.

The final day we spent the morning lazing around the pool before our transfer to the airport. I am glad we did the tour this way as we were refreshed and ready for a plane journey that ended up being longer than anticipated due to bad weather at Buenos Aires.

The guides we had for both days were excellent. They were very professional and helpful.

We booked a South America small group tour with Viva Expeditions which they customized to meet our needs. unfortunately we had to cancel it about 6 weeks prior to departure. It was completely paid for and we thought there would be no refunds - but we asked anyway. Beke followed through with our request, and was able to get us a nice refund which we so appreciated.
I a sure I will be traveling with them in the future. They very responsive and easy to deal with.

They have a toll free number that is so easy to use (we just have to be mindful of the 18 hour time difference) and they always respond to phone calls and emails promptly. Also we have done a Whats App video call with them too, which was nice.

They have a wonderful variety of trips to offer at reasonable prices, and we like the fact that they can tweak them to suit the customer's needs. We will definitely use them again in the future!! We give them 5***** rating for quality tours and travel service.

The Viva New Zealand team were very helpful and responsive throughout the planning stage, and helped us get a good deal on our trip. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone else looking to book a big trip!

Seamless travel, professional service and peace of mind.

Very helpful, responsive and knowledgable . We felt so comfortable organising our trip with Pia, trusted her from the start.
Trip of a lifetime. Highly recommend. Thanks so much Pia.

Incredible experience! Thank you Viva for organizing such a fabulous trip. I especially appreciate everything that you did when my Latam flights were cancelled. Your team made it all work perfectly!!

Pia at Viva was had excellent communications and provided lots of information about the pro and cons of different cruises, making the decision making easy.

Dealing with the team at Viva made my South America/Antarctica experience worry free, everything worked like clockwork. I had some arrangements before and after my Antarctica cruise organised through them as well and I was always met on time by drivers and communication was excellent.
I was really well prepared for my Antarctica experience by the team as they had been there several times themselves. They knew exactly what it would be like and that was a big help to me, especially in knowing what to pack! I'm so thankful to have been able to experience the wonders of Antarctica without any stress and really just enjoy the remoteness and the beauty. The Viva Team in NZ (particularly Tara and Pia) and their in-destination support crew, made that possible.

We loved going on holiday with Viva Expeditions. Everything was taken care of and I didn't have to do organise a thing. It was also top quality and the people we were involved with did excellent jobs, from the staff at the hotels, drivers, greet people and hiker guide. Especially liked our hiker guide, wonderful person. The quality at the hotels was also very good.

Your service and time management were excellent. We were very happy for all the guides, drivers and the places we visited, attended specially in Buenos Aires. We think you are the best. We will positively recommend our friends and families to use VIVA for South America trips.

Our months holiday was memorable because we achieved all the sightseeing and experiences we aspired to achieve in South America. From Patagonia to the Amazon Jungle, we were never stressed as all arrangements fell into place.
Due to meticulous planning, we were always picked on time, made every flight and happy to say, lost no luggage. All hotels met our needs and were well positioned in cities.

Very well organised, clear instructions, good personnel.

Viva expeditions created an excellent individual itinerary for us in Argentina and Chile. It was wonderful not to organise anything but our lunches and dinner. The pick up and drop off at the airport was also excellent. Everyone who we communicated with was super helpful during the trip. All communication with Viva was also excellent. I would highly recommend them.
