AMAZING!
5/5

How do you quantify greatness? From start to finish, African Big Cats Safaris was incredible. They went above and beyond in EVERY aspect.

My first encounter was with William Frank. Mr. Frank was immediately responsive to my initial inquiry; listened to what I wanted from our safari adventure and carefully curated the exact itinerary and experience for which we were hoping - through several iterations of itineraries and experiences...until he had it perfect.

From there, Naomi Kavishe took over as our coordinator for our safari. Naomi was amazing, patient and kind. She fielded a million questions from big to small. Naomi was communicative; available for any issue and timely in her responses. She was informative as to processes to get visas, clothing advice; transportation needs; and, she even made spa appointments for us!!

The icing on the cake was our safari guide, Festo. Oh my goodness! He was the BEST. Festo greeted our group of four (crazy) ladies celebrating MY 70th birthday. Little did he know what he was in for. Festo was sweet; kind; incredibly informative and knowledgeable about the wildlife and environments; fun and funny. Festo made every single moment special and a memory for a lifetime. I cannot begin to thank him for the over the top experiences we had. Festo, the Team Kudu Mamas LOVE you!

If you're looking for a quality safari experience, I cannot recommend African Big Cats Safaris enough. They nailed it!

Most memorable adventure of my life!
5/5

Beyond our wildest dreams!! Thanks to our incredible guide Eric, who understood the animals habits and knew where they hung out and hunted, we were often within 6 feet of the animals: lions and cheetahs lying in the shade of our vehicle, herds of elephants and wildebeests meandering around our parked vehicle while grazing, zebras by the side of the road staring at us. The animals know we won't attack so they carry on their life as if we are one of them. Our greatest thrill was seeing the wildebeest river crossing, being close enough to hear their grunting efforts as they swam against the swift current. Eric also had a great sense of humour, which makes life fun as the 3 of us spent 12 hours a day together for 6 days. I strongly recommend African Big Cats for their prompt, thorough communication planning exactly what we wanted. They provided a perfect trip for a very reasonable cost. Their vehicles are pop-top which allows 360 degree viewing, and safety during close encounters with the wildlife. In the comfortable tent-camps we could hear the animals passing our tents during the night. A fantastic adventure.

Amazing Experience with African Big Cats
5/5

Our experience with African Big Cats was incredible. We are a family of 5 and were looking for a private safari. There are so many companies to choose from and we're so happy we decided on African Big Cats. The initial communication with William was top notch. He was polite and patient with us throughout. We provided an itinerary we wanted and William suggested some changes that would enhance the experience, and we're glad he did. Nothing was ever pushed on us. Timing, accommodations and everything was based on what we wanted. After making the decision to go with them for an 8 day safari, Naomi took over as the safari coordinator and the communication was still great. The night we arrived in Arusha, Emmanuel met with us at our lodge to go over the final itinerary and make sure we were on the same page and that all our expectations were being met. We then met Mrosso, who was our guide, the following morning. Mrosso was amazing and we were so glad we had him as our guide. Mrosso was super knowledgeable, a great driver, especially on the bumpy roads and provided amazing service. He was so patient and accommodated all our requests, even necessary bathroom breaks. He is kind, respectful and such a great man. He also had such a keen eye for spotting wildlife that we never would have noticed on our own (cheetah poking its head out of the grass under a tree). The Land Cruiser was in good shape, well suited for the journey and very comfortable. We never thought an overland safari would be so comfortable. All the accommodations were amazing, even the tented ones in the Serengeti as well as the food. All the Tanzanians we encountered were all so nice and pleasant.

If you're looking for an amazing experience, go with African Big Cats, you won't be disappointed. It's not about what you're going to see out there, it's about who you're interacting with and the overall service and Mrosso was a HUGE part of the experience. Thanks Mrosso and the entire African Big Cats staff. Keep doing what you're doing. Asanta Sana!!!

Excellent Service, will choose them every time
5/5

Emanuel and his Team at African Safari Cats are truly dedicated and good at what they do, they are involved in everything from beggining to end making sure everything goes as planned and were very accomodating with a last minute change addition and a mistake I made with departure times of final flight home.
Obedi is a wonderful guide, he was very patient and knowledgeable and took great care of our family so our children would have a spectacular time, we would choose ABC and Obedi every time if we went back to the area. Asante Sana...maisha marefu to the entire Team at African Big Cats they are the Best at what they do!!!

An Amazing Experience with African Big Cats!
5/5

Wow! What an amazing trip! African Big Cats arranged an amazing 10 day safari for us!

Our guide, Obedi, became one of the family (Kaka). He knew exactly where to take us to find the elusive rhino, leopard, cheetahs, hyenas, lions, and MUCH more. And he did an excellent job of avoiding the crowds so we often felt like we were the only ones in the vast wilderness.

The vehicle was large and comfortable. The extra padding on the seats was much appreciated during the many bumpy roads, aka "african massages". The pop top made it easy to view and photograph the majestic wildlife.

Each lodge they selected was top notch. The staff was very welcoming and attentive. The facliities were clean, large, and very comfortable. The en suite bathrooms were large, the showers had wonderful hot water, and several had amazing outdoor showers. The food was great! And picnic lunches in the bush were a fun experience.

Going with African Big Cats made this incredible journey something that we will remember forever.
