Wonderful trip!
What a fantastic trip we had to South Africa earlier this year. It was arranged by Rob from Tailormade Africa and from the very start he seemed to understand what we were looking for. After years of working hard and never seeming to find the right moment for a decent break, we were looking for a special holiday with plenty of variety. While we had some limited knowledge of South Africa, organizing such a trip without help seemed rather daunting. We were introduced to Rob via a third party and from that point on everything fell into place. During various calls he listened to our list of things we wanted to do and see, which was quite comprehensive, and he interpreted them into a wonderful trip. Our request was to spend a maximum of 3 nights in any one place, mix site-seeing, culture, history, safari and activities and all within a specified budget. Rob’s incredibly detailed knowledge of the areas, hotels and value for money made the trip possible and we didn’t have to compromise on anything.
All the hotels, connections and car hire were very good, clean and reliable and, when requested, accommodation was luxurious. The people and guides we met were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. It all exceeded expectations and was more than we could have hoped for, even keeping within budget! During the stay, Rob was there in the background making sure we were OK and sending us the odd Whatsapp message. We also knew we could call his mobile at any time if needed, but that was not required.
We have no hesitation in recommending Rob and his team to anyone contemplating a trip to Africa.

Amazing, good vibe and a lot knowledge
I experienced few days, and the feeling is total satisfaction about the biodiversity, the freedom and landscapes,
I loved the guide, always telling stories, making a happy time around during the time waiting to watch animals in the natural habitat. At the same time the space and silence is valuable asset if you like just contemplate and connect with the nature.
The experience is accurate and unique.
Thanks

Cuckoo tours, Best tour experience in Zimbabwe and surrounding regions
Cuckoo safaris provided wonderful service and value for our stay in Zimbabwe. We were held up for 2 hours in arrivals but the office was able to alter our arrangements to make sure we got to our sunset river cruise on time. Our driver Lewis did everything possible to make sure our time here was fabulous, he went out of his way to be friendly and helpful. Our Chobe park experience was amazing, our driver, Gift, showed us many animals close up. Our guides around Victoria falls Sheldon and Martha were very informative and interesting. Simon was interesting, he drove us to Boma which was a fun night. We stayed at Dzimbabwe lodge, our room was really comfortable and the staff lovely. Tambi was especially friendly and Mike at the bar was helpful too. Would highly recommend this company, their staff, activities and accommodation choices.

Perfect
One of the most beautiful experiences of my life. The Safari was organized perfectly. The guide Justine Kimambo was excellent at finding all the animals and taking us within a few steps of them. The Safari accommodations were fabulous! Nothing negative to report.

A knowledgeable and friendly person
I joined a 4-night, 5-day safari tour covering Tanzania's Ngorongoro National Park and Serengeti National Park. Our driver and tour guide was a man named Elisha. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the various animal species and their behaviors, and he skillfully exchanged information with other drivers to guide us to different locations. Thanks to him, we were able to see as many as 30 different species over four days, including lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, jackals, gazelles, and baboons. The hotels we stayed at were also wonderful, especially the Meliá Serengeti Lodge, where the food, service, rooms, and cleanliness were all top-notch.

Unforgettable safari with Elisha!
Our recent trip to Tanzania was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks to the impeccable service and guidance provided by Elisha. From the moment we landed at Kilimanjaro Airport, Elisha was there to greet us with a sign bearing our name, making us feel welcomed and at ease.
**Efficient Use of Time and Cultural Insights**
On the first day, we efficiently traveled to Karatu, maximizing our time from the get-go. During the journey, Elisha shared fascinating insights about Tanzanian towns and culture, enriching our experience beyond just sightseeing.
**Exciting Wildlife Encounters**
Our second day took us through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area en route to the Serengeti. We were thrilled to see giraffes up close, a truly exhilarating experience. Elisha offered invaluable advice at a roadside shop, suggesting we avoid purchasing items at higher prices elsewhere.
At the Ngorongoro gate, we purchased an animal checklist, which became a cherished souvenir. It allowed us to track the animals we saw, learning their names in both English and Swahili. This added an educational layer to our adventure.
**Serengeti Wonders and Balloon Safari**
Entering the Serengeti, we were immediately greeted by the sight of two majestic male lions. This was just the beginning; we also encountered cheetahs, hippos, elephants, zebras, and leopards, each sighting more awe-inspiring than the last.
The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly the early morning balloon ride. The serene dawn over the savannah, with gazelles and giraffes gracefully moving below, was breathtaking. Viewing the landscape and wildlife from above was a unique and unforgettable experience. We highly recommend this to anyone visiting the Serengeti. The tour was organized through a company called Miracle Experience. Their professionalism was evident from the pilot's thorough and engaging demonstration, ensuring we felt safe and informed throughout the journey.
**A Memorable Guide**
Most importantly, Elisha, our tour guide, made this journey truly special. His profound knowledge of wildlife, personal stories, and insights into safari vehicles enriched our understanding and appreciation of Tanzania. We look forward to returning and would undoubtedly request Elisha as our guide again.
This trip was a perfect blend of adventure, education, and relaxation, all thanks to the exceptional service and experiences provided.

Great service, awesome experience
We did a 5 day Safari to Massai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha lake, including Hell's gate national park. Everything was on point. The company was very professional, ready to answer all of our questions before and during the trip. If anything went out of the itinerary, they were quick and polite to amend any inconvenient. A huge highlight of our trip was our driver, Jeff. Such an amazing guy, always smilling, polite, professional and ready to give you the best experience you could get.
With no doubt, jocky tours delivered everything we needed for our trip.
