Vihann our contact was Outstanding!
Wow, exceptional service from Vihann!
Our trip was booked & organised a couple of weeks prior departure, we had 9 days spare to spend in Botswana after Namibia. Emails were sent to half dozen booking companies, some replied with what do you want to do, some said we’ll respond in 24-48hrs but not Vihann he had our itinerary (including our flight out of Namibia) ready to go on first contact. What a relief, all we had to do was enjoy the safaris. Everything went like clockwork, every flight, every detail, 3 lodges of mid-luxury and all 7 flights in & out of Botswana and back to Jo’burg with a lovely night stay in Sandton and delivered back to the airport for our flight home. There’s no way we could have done this ourselves..
The detailed itinerary had everything we needed to do and be at what time. We were also met on arrival in Botswana & Joburg which was very reassuring as it was our first time to Africa.
The Safari days are amazing and full, which meant the early nights were a blessing, the tour guides are so knowledgeable so kind fun and helpful, we loved the glamping style accom with all the comforts incl repellent, lotions and filtered drinking water…so much delicious food! there were so many special moments it’s too long to list all of them, like the night an elephant was eating/walking past our lodge, hyenas crunching on their meal, a lion calling for his brother right next to our car, or the Hippo who jumped out of the water just as surprised as us in our boat…truly amazing and always felt safe. Thank you Vihann we highly recommend you.

friendly and organized!
Our experience with Cuckoo Safaris was great! Everything was on time and organized. Simon and Tatenda were great hosts, so friendly, reliable, and informative. They made sure my vegetarian diet was accommodated and both safari days they organized for us were amazing experiences with great guides. We saw plenty of elephants, giraffes, hippos, zebras, and lion cubs! The tour was a good value. I would book with them again!

Wonderful day trip
We last-minutely reserved a trip with Delfin Tours, and it exceeded our expectations. The trip began early in the morning from our hotel, The Sands at Nomad Hotel, to Kisite park for snorkeling, where we spotted numerous dolphins. Lunch was also excellent. There was nothing more that we could have wished for.
We appreciate Annalice's prompt response to our urgent need.
I won't think twice about recommending Delfin Tours to anyone looking for an excellent day trip.

The crew (guide, cook, and two more) were hardworking, professional, and super people.
We were on the 7-day Moremi/Okavango/Chobe safari and it was the travel experience of our lives. The crew (General, Hotata, Kennedy and Howard) were simply wonderful, and friendly and fun to be with. General is a top-notch guide and we especially appreciated his knowledge of birds, not to mention his ability as a tracker, teacher and driver. Hotata's food, all cooked over wood fires in our wilderness campsites, was excellent, and the crew just took care of everything. These national parks are world treasures, a redoubt of the old, wild Africa and a tremendous credit to the people of Botswana. We would recommend this safari to anyone, with the caveat that you must be prepared for camping a bit in the rough and be physically up to long, bouncy rides in the Land Cruiser.

Great Experience in South Africa
The accommodations, food, guides and overall experience were wonderful. I thought spending the first night at the hotel in OR Tambo airport was perfect after our long flights. James met us Wednesday morning after breakfast and drove us to the lovely Equestrian Estate. James was a fabulous guide, very knowledgeable and fun to be with.
I LOVED staying at Tshukudu Game Lodge! The entire staff were wonderful, accommodations & food very enjoyable. The best part was the safaris and close interaction with the animals! Our guide, Michael, was so knowledgeable, friendly and an absolute pleasure to be around! We also had the good fortune of going out with Chris on our first morning safari & came across two male lions shortly after they killed a zebra. The lions had full bellies and willing to pose for us while we took hundreds of pictures. I was very sad to leave Tshukudu and say goodbye to our home away from home.
Our accommodations at Ilala Lodge were very nice & comfortable and the grounds/setting were beautiful. We enjoyed the guided walking tour of Victoria Falls and the sunset river cruise.
The trip far exceeded my expectations. I loved So Africa and hope to be able to visit Kenia, Tanzinia and Cape Town in the future.
Thank you all at Touchdown Travel for job well done!
