Vivaexpeditions Reviews

Loved all of the info and support I was

Loved all of the info and support I was able to get from Emma Tara Super friendly informative and ensured I got all the necessary updates as things changed around me Very glad I used Viva instead of trying to do everything for myself due to the complicated nature of a trip to Antarctica

Expectations exceeded

Thank you Viva for such a fabulous trip everything was so well organised from the first inquiry through to the end So many extra treats and surprises along the way too You created such a positive culture within the group your staff were so friendly and helpful My kids felt like VIPs This tour exceeded our expectations and we very much look forward to joining Viva again in the future

Such an amazing experience

Such an amazing experience The whole trip from the pre flight options the tons of information in the lead up to the flight given via Facebook and email to the flight itself was exceptional Well done Viva for realizing dreams and getting us on a Dreamliner again So thankful for being able to finally see the aurora

Rakiura Tour August 21- 26 2022

Great tour great itinerary great meals great motel and a great group leader in Pia Pia was very professional and accommodating in being able to deal with 13 different personalities needs and always with warmth and a smile What I really appreciated with the itinerary was the 2 free afternoons and 1 whole day to be able to explore one s own interests Just a pity we didn t really get to see the Aurora All in all a great experience Robert and Margaret Cyca ROTORUA

A truly fabulous experience

Our group of seven recently made a trip to the Abel Tasman National Park where we stayed at Awaroa Lodge before boarding a luxury catamaran for 3 days The entire trip was unbelievably amazing and far exceeded all of our expectations Pia from Viva Expeditions was wonderful right from the very start of organising the trip and then went into overdrive when it looked like 3 of our party were not going to make it because of Cyclone Gabrielle Against all odds she made it work for us along with the staff from Abel Tasman Sailing Adventures and I can t speak highly enough of all of them A fabulous trip and a fabulous company

Pia selecting our cruise and organising itinerary

Pia from Viva coped very well with our requests for flight changes - a few days here there We were very pleased with the Galapagos cruise on the Bonita as being the one most suited for our price bracket Pia kept in touch - for example the cruise company organised flights to from Galapagos and Pia always kept us informed There were no hiccups and had there been we had every confidence should we have needed to contact Pia she would have dealt with problems competently Thank you

Flights to the Lights should be on your bucket list - a must do

I was extremely fortunate to have found myself on the Southern Flights to the Lights - chasing the Aurora Australis across the southern ocean back in March 2021 It is quite simply one of the world s most unique spectacular light shows and definitely one of the most moving events I ve ever experienced It s a cliche to say bucket list but this trip should be on it
