Unforgettable Safari Adventure
We recently booked a two-week private safari and beach package with African Big Cats, and the entire experience was flawless. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish, allowing us to completely relax without worrying about any logistics.
Communication with Naomi and Emanuel was seamless. Naomi was very responsive and helped answer all our questions throughout the trip. She even went out of her way to arrange activities for us at the very end of our journey when we realized we had extra time before our flight home due to our own scheduling oversight.
A special shoutout goes to our safari guide, Samuel, who truly made our trip unforgettable. He went above and beyond to share the incredible nature and wildlife of Tanzania with us. He quickly understood our vibe and was completely flexible whenever necessary. Furthermore, Samuel has what can only be described as 'eagle eyes.' He would gently stop the jeep and point out a leopard camouflaged on a distant branch or a lioness hidden in the tall grass, sightings we would have missed in a heartbeat. He didn't just show us the animals; he explained their behavior, their role in the ecosystem, and shared fascinating facts that brought the entire landscape to life. Thank you Samuel!
This was truly a trip of a lifetime.
We highly recommend African Big Cats to anyone planning a visit to Tanzania!
The one stop shop to make your trip as easy as possible!
The thought of doing this trip without the help of African Big Cats is scary to think about. They picked us up from the airport at 3:30am and from that point on, we didn’t have to do anything but be there and enjoy the trip. When you think about all that goes into the safari trip - flights, airport transfer, park fees, lodge bookings, etc… it adds up to a lot of work. African Big Cats literally took care of everything and took the stress out of traveling. And I found the cost to be impressive for all that they took care of. Our guide, Khalid, was EXTREMELY knowledgeable about the animals and knew how to find so many of them while on the game drives. I highly recommend African Big Cats for anyone considering traveling to Tanzania for a safari.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We had an incredible safari experience in Tanzania visiting Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti, and it was truly one of the best trips of our lives.
From the very beginning, the team at - Big African Cats safari was outstanding. They responded quickly, were extremely professional, and managed to organize our entire trip within just one week, including all the lodges and hotels we requested. Everything was handled smoothly and efficiently, and we felt we were in great hands throughout the entire process.
The highlight of our trip was without a doubt our guide, Martin. My wife and I were a bit nervous about spending five days with someone we had never met before, but Martin made us feel comfortable from the very first moment. He was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly easy to talk to. By the end of the trip, it honestly felt like we had been traveling with a friend we had known for years.
Martin explained every detail of what we saw, whether it was during the safari drives or while traveling between destinations. His knowledge of the wildlife, nature, and local culture was exceptional. Most importantly, Martin has the eyes of an eagle. We were constantly amazed by his ability to spot animals that seemed impossible to see. Thanks to Martin, we saw everything we hoped for and more, including lions, cheetahs, a leopard, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and many other incredible animals.
If you book with Big African Cats, my strongest recommendation is to ask for Martin specifically. Martin played a huge part in making this trip so special, and I genuinely believe our experience would not have been the same without him. His professionalism, personality, and passion for his work made every day enjoyable and unforgettable.
This was a truly amazing safari experience, and I highly recommend Big African Cats to anyone planning a trip to Tanzania. And once again, if you can choose your guide, ask for Martin. He will make your safari experience nothing less than extraordinary. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with African Big Cats Safari
We had an absolutely amazing 5-day safari with African Big Cats Safaris, and it honestly became one of the highlights of all our travels.
From the very beginning, the communication and planning were excellent. The team took the time to understand what we were looking for and created a trip that matched us perfectly, from the lodges and locations to the overall flow and style of the safari. Everything felt smooth, professional, and very well organized.
The safari itself was beyond anything we expected. Experiencing the endless landscapes of the Serengeti, the beauty of Ngorongoro Crater, and seeing so many incredible animals up close was something we will never forget.
A huge part of what made the trip so special was our guide, Thomas. Beyond being extremely knowledgeable about the animals, nature, and local areas, he was also a genuinely great person to spend these days with. He always knew where to go, was patient, flexible, and constantly adapted the experience based on what interested us most. Thanks to him, we had some unbelievable wildlife encounters and truly enjoyed every moment.
The safari vehicle was also excellent, comfortable, spacious, and prepared with everything we needed. The small details like cold drinks, snacks, and coffee stops in the middle of nature made the experience even better.
I would highly recommend African Big Cats Safaris to anyone looking for a professional, personal, and unforgettable safari experience. A big thank you to the whole team, and especially to Thomas, for making this adventure such an incredible memory for us.
Our tour operator was experienced, knowledgeable, and friendly, making our trip unforgettable.
There’s a reason African Big Cats Safaris won Best Luxury Safari Tour in 2025. From the very beginning, their team made us feel cared for, supported, and genuinely excited about our journey. Their attentiveness, clear communication, and meticulous planning made the entire process completely stress-free, allowing us to focus on enjoying this once-in-a-lifetime experience together. They were incredibly accommodating whenever we wanted to make changes to our itinerary and always went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect.
What began as a tour quickly became so much more because of our guide. Beyond his incredible knowledge, professionalism, and passion for what he does, he brought a warmth and kindness that made us feel completely at home from the moment we met him. By the end of our trip, it no longer felt like we were saying goodbye to a tour operator, it felt like we were saying goodbye to a friend. He shared in our excitement, celebrated special moments with us, and genuinely cared about making our experience unforgettable. The memories we made were extraordinary, but the connection we formed with him is something we will cherish just as much.
Choosing Africa for our honeymoon was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made, and African Big Cats Safaris played an enormous role in making it so unforgettable. Every moment felt thoughtfully curated, and we always felt like we were in the most capable and caring hands. The memories we made will stay with us forever, and we are deeply grateful to the entire team for helping create such a meaningful and magical experience.
