Prudence was the best guide we’ve encountered in a long time. A real asset to your business. Listening to the people you guide and taking into account their needs is very considerate. Thanks Prudence and Cuckoo Safaris. Angel & Bongi”

“Nice, but the view was not what we expected. It was very foggy and blurry, many water drops in the air, so not as much as expected to see. The price of the tour was 90$ per person and 50$ more entrance fee for one park. Too much, not worth it to my opinion.”
