Our 4-night, 5-day trip across Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Botswana with cukoo Safaris was absolutely flawless from start to finish. If you are planning a trip to the region, book with them without hesitation—they are professional, reliable, and deeply honest.
From the moment Blessing picked us up at the airport to our final departure drop-off, the coordination was seamless. With an ambitious itinerary involving multiple border crossings, transfers, and activities—a Zambezi River sunset cruise, guided tour of Victoria Falls, helicopter flight, a full-day safari in Chobe National Park (Botswana), and a final evening game drive with a bush dinner—every single pickup was prompt to the minute. Every driver and tour partner already had our names on hand, making a complex schedule feel effortless.
The guides were outstanding, passionate, and incredibly skilled at spotting wildlife. Across our game drives, we saw rhinos, lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and plenty of hippos. The aerial views from the helicopter flight over Victoria Falls were unforgettable.
Cukoo Safaris delivers top-tier service, transparent communication, and authentic hospitality. I would blindly recommend them to anyone visiting Southern Africa!

Wonderful!
I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with Cuckoo Safaris. The itinerary, guides, and vendors selected were all great. My one bit of feedback (and why I knocked off a star - it would have been half a star if I could have) is that the front office could do a better job of communicating must-know details ahead of time (like start and end times; payment process; what visa to purchase; what exactly is included in each experience). If you are proactive and ask, then they are communicative and reliable, but some of this information could be better communicated on the front end.

Well organized tour,...
Well organized tour, courteous staff, careful, experienced drivers drivers. The only downsize was the visa process was not synchronized and our tour of Zambia on the 2nd day was unsuccessful. We were told visas could be arranged upon arrival, it wasn't for a family member with an Ethiopian passport.

Thank you for your kind words about our tour organization, staff, and drivers — we truly appreciate your recognition of our team’s efforts.
We are, however, very sorry to hear about the challenge with the visa process. Border and immigration regulations can sometimes vary by nationality, and while we always strive to provide the most accurate guidance, in this case it unfortunately affected your Zambia tour. Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience this caused your family.
Your feedback is very valuable to us. We are now strengthening our pre-arrival communication regarding visa requirements for different passport holders to help ensure such issues are avoided in the future.
We are grateful you chose to travel with us and we hope to welcome you again for a smoother and even more enjoyable safari experience.

Amazing Experience, Great Service
We had an amazing 6 day tour with Cuckoo Safaris. The tour components in both Victoria Falls and Botswana were excellent. Accommodation in VF and Botswana were lovely and the itinerary had the right balance of activity and down time. Shelton, our guide in Victoria Falls was knowledgeable, on time and good company. The afternoon game drive and dinner in VF was a highlight.
The 3 days in Botswana was also amazing. Guides for the safari drives and boat cruise were excellent and we saw an incredible amount of wildlife. Each drive had something different that made it special in its right. The whole experience was something we will never forget.
Cuckoo were very good with communications. They were accommodating when we had issues with card payment and found a way to make it work. The assistance from the Cuckoo staff at the border crossing into Botswana made the things very easy.
