We have used Viva travel recently to book a Nile cruise and hotel stay, I can’t emphasise enough how helpful Vaibhav at Viva holidays was, he explained things clearly and was very upfront and honest, it wasn’t just about selling a holiday, he really listened and considered our personal needs going over and above to tailor our holiday to our needs, I will definitely use Vaibhav at Viva holidays (owned by Hays travel) for my next holiday.

Harsha helped plan a 7days trip…

Harsha helped plan a 7days trip (Marrakech and Agadir) for 11 people. Some were coming from UK so needed flights and others were coming from abroad so he arranged a land package only for them. The whole trip was super smooth and enjoyable. The transfers and hotels were perfect. Harsha was very approachable and very understanding with changes that I had asked him to make. I cannot thank him enough. Very reasonably priced package too and very tailored to our needs. I will definitely be using VIVA holidays again

Dear Bhatgirl,

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! 😊

We’re absolutely delighted to hear that Harsha was able to plan such a smooth and enjoyable 7-day trip for your group. Coordinating arrangements for 11 people from different locations is no small task, and it’s great to know everything—from flights and land packages to transfers and hotels—worked out perfectly.

Harsha will be especially happy to hear your kind words about his flexibility and understanding with the changes. ✨ Providing tailored experiences at great value is exactly what we strive for!

We truly appreciate your trust in us and look forward to helping you plan your next trip.

Travelling to more than one place in Italy

Bikram supplied the quote for our holiday to Tuscany and followed up so efficiently. The itinerary was amazing, giving us just the right amount of time in each of the three places we visited. Everything was clearly set out, making taking trains and finding our hotels simple. Each hotel was very different in character giving us a very varied experience. Thank you, we will definately use Viva travel again.

Fantastic

My husband and I have just returned from our 4 nights holiday from Chur via the Berina Express starting at Milan. Harsha from Viva Holidays handled all bookings which included a total of 4 trains across 2 countries as well as excellent accommodation. The whole booking process was made easy by Harsha, he responded to any questions I had which resulted in a smooth journey throughout our stay in Milan, Chur and finally Zurich. Bernia Express was a great experience. Thanks Harsha!
