One of my best traveling experiences
5/5

My trip to Zimbabwe and Botswana with Cuckoo Safaris was one of the best. The variety of experiences throughout the program, the Cuckoo Safaris flawless organization, and the kindness of the drivers and guides made the 11-day trip unforgettable. I will definitely return to visit Zambia and Namibia with Cuckoo Safaris.

Cuckoo safaris’ team was always reachable and punctual on all out trips. Splendid!
5/5

I would like to thank the Cuckoo Safaris team for making my dream holiday a possibility. Tarzan’s communication was top-notch, he was always available for any inquiries we had about our tour(S). We spent five days between Zimbabwe, Zambia and Botswana enjoying the region's safari landscape, spotting all the big 5, with of course the help of our guide Simon, who was full of information about the wilderness and culture. I highly recommend these lads, their Tours feel like VIP because of how detailed they were. Love lots from Trey and Jessica ❤️

Experienced operators delivering a great service at a good price
5/5

I knew a rough outline of what I wanted to do and sent it to Cuckoo to bring it to life in a real itinerary at the price point advised.
They came up with a good, value for money package which I made a couple of tweaks to and we agreed.
There was good communication before our trip started, helpfully answering my questions. Simon was allocated as our main point of contact whilst on safari and communication was both in person and via WhatsApp. He was both helpful and knowledgeable.
Guides for specific tours were generally pretty good and provided interesting background information as well as spotting animals.
I based my selection of Cuckoo purely off good reviews and was not disappointed. I would use them again if needed. Very much enjoyed our trip.

Tatenda was very knowledgable and enjoyed the time we had with him travelling through Botswana.
4/5

We really enjoyed our time in Botswana. Elephant Sands being the highlight but generally an interesting time travelling from Chobe to Maun. Tatenda made the trip special with his knowledge overall of the country and is a very safe driver.

We had an amazing 10-day journey from Victoria Falls to Maun with Cuckoo Safaris. Everything was perfectly organized, from the choice of hotels and lodges to the game drives and activities. The team was always flexible and attentive to our needs, making us feel comfortable at all times. A special thanks to our guide Simon, whose knowledge and passion brought the culture of Zimbabwe and Botswana to life. Highly recommended!
