Tremisana/Treehouse Safaris
Unique rustic accommodation - a real African bush experience
Viva Safaris provides the Tremisana/Treehouse Safari, perfect for travellers who want something truly different — rustic wooden treehouses built on stilts, surrounded by nature, with wildlife often wandering right past your deck. These safaris combine adventurous accommodation with Kruger National Park game drives, guided bush walks, and sunset safaris. All packages include return transport from Johannesburg or Pretoria.
This is a great choice for adventurous travellers, backpackers, and nature lovers. If you are adventure-minded, young at heart and prepared to forfeit certain luxuries in the pursuit of a real African bush experience, you are encouraged to book a Treehouse safari.
