Excellent company with great itineraries.
Victoria Falls, Hwange, Chobe and Moremi trip. Itinerary, communication, accommodation and activities/experiences were excellent. It was a very busy itinerary which was organised and delivered perfectly. Thank you Cuckoo Safaris. Highly recommend.

Great 12 day safari from Zimbabwe to Botswana
A big thank you to Tatenda, Brighton, Shelton, Simon and all at Cuckoo safaris for our amazing 12 day safari across Zimbabwe and Botswana. It was a bit daunting having to choose which safari company to use from the other side of the planet many months ago but it was great. We have no regrets and the positive reviews of Cuckoo safaris are justified.
They are a medium sized local operator in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe which pride themselves on offering quality safaris and really good customer service at a reasonable price point. Everything went well with our logistics, accommodation and all the many various game drive guides across Victoria Falls, Hwange, Chobe, Elephant Sands, Planet Baobab and Okavango delta. They packaged together all the various elements, tours, drivers very well and it always felt safe. We saw the big 5 many times over and had fantastic animal encounters with the different guides at each national park. I would recommend this company.
My suggestions for improvements are 1) their communication could have been more proactive and detailed at the start of the safari (I had to ask several times for the name of the driver meeting us at Vic Falls airport) but this improved during the safari 2) it would have been good to have been informed / reminded that all families need copies of the birth certificates for children under 18 when crossing the border between Zimbabwe and Botswana and 3) one of the accommodation hotels changed between the initial itinerary and the final confirmation but to be fair we could have spotted this earlier and it was not a problem as the alternative hotel in Maun was very good. So thanks again to Tatenda and all at Cuckoo safaris and keep up the good work.

Both of the guides, Sunshine and Mike were very friendly and knowledgable!
They picked me up and dropped me off at my hotel, which is very convenient. The guides were very friendly and engaging, answering questions and telling about the gorgeous views. I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to view both sides of the Victoria falls!

Lovely tour
We decided to use a tour even tho Victoria Falls is easy to do self guided - it was a great decision - Sunshine was funny, friendly and knowledgeable and made it a lovely experience for our group!
