Perfectly organised safari with a great guide
5/5

We had an amazing safari experience with African Big Cats Safaris. From the very beginning, the planning phase was super smooth thanks to Emanuel and Naomi. They were extremely responsive, always happy to adjust the itinerary, and worked with us until we were completely satisfied with the proposal. Their attention to detail and willingness to accommodate our requests made the whole preparation effortless.

During the safari, everything was perfectly organized. Our guide, Obedi, was outstanding: knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. He struck the perfect balance between sharing great details about the wildlife and giving us space to enjoy the experience at our own pace. He also drove very carefully throughout the trip. We noticed other drivers on the road being quite reckless, but with Obedi we always felt completely safe, which made a huge difference.

Thanks to him, we were able to spot an incredible variety of animals, often from very close by, and truly appreciate the beauty of each park, from Tarangire to Serengeti (central and northern), Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara. We even had the privilege to observe the Great Migration and an impressive river crossing. The lodges we stayed in were excellent, and the whole journey ran seamlessly from start to finish.

Overall, this was a fantastic safari, and we would wholeheartedly recommend African Big Cats Safaris to anyone planning a trip to Tanzania.

Amazing safari company and life changing experience
5/5

Our honeymoon safari experience with African Big Cats was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very first inquiry, their team was professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our trip unforgettable. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, from seamless transfers to comfortable accommodations that blended luxury with the feeling of being close to nature.

Our guide Festo was outstanding—knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about wildlife. Thanks to his expertise, we spotted the Big Five and so many other incredible animals while learning fascinating insights about their behavior and habitats. Each game drive felt unique and exciting, never rushed, and always safe.

What truly set African Big Cats apart was their attention to the little things: warm welcomes, thoughtful touches at camp, and a real commitment to conservation and supporting local communities. We felt not just like guests, but like part of a family.

This was the trip of a lifetime, and we can’t recommend African Big Cats enough. If you’re looking for a safari that combines adventure, comfort, and genuine care, this is the team to trust.

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well. We are a Portuguese family and we went on safari with you f

I'd like to thank the African Big Cats organization and everyone involved. Second, I'd like to thank our fantastic guide and driver, Klaus. His helpfulness and friendliness were incredible. Thank you all for providing us with this fantastic experience. I wish you continued success.

Unforgettable Kilimanjaro climb and safari with an amazing team and seamless experience!
5/5

We climbed Kilimanjaro and then did a week of Safari!

First of all, the African Big Cats Safaris team has very big hearts. Its always customers first, and only then money, so we never felt like it was a commercial service. Any changes or unforeseen situations were handled perfectly, always putting our needs and comfort as the priority. This is very rare to find (and we travel a lot!).

From the very beginning, communication was fast and clear. Naomi from customer service answered all our questions in detail and gave us full confidence before we even arrived in Tanzania. We were given clear guidance on what to bring and how to prepare which made everything stress free and easy.

Its a local company, skipping any international middlemen, which makes the overall price lower. These guys go the extra mile to make the experience even better and really stand out. Emanuel, the main coordinator, was there at every step to make sure everything went smoothly and that we were fully taken care of by his team. The logistics were perfect - we didnt have to worry about a thing. Everything was seamless and someone was always there waiting for us and guiding us every step of the way!

The Kilimanjaro team, led by Imran, was exceptionally good. We immediately felt like it wasnt just our challenge to climb but a shared goal among the whole team. Imran, Elias, Samson, Daniel, and others are also friends outside of work so it really feels like a well polished team with warm relationships and trust in each other. This is very important because in the mountains you need to rely on everyone during the hardest times.

We believe that without Imran and the rest of the team, we might not have reached Uhuru Peak, as they helped us the most during the toughest hours. Apart from the great atmosphere, the food was really good, the equipment was well selected and the team was highly experienced in every topic related to the climb. English was no problem, Imran as the lead guide speaks it very well! To sum up, if someone plans to climb Kilimanjaro, Imran and his team are the way to go. At the end we were sad to say goodbye as we had truly become friends.

Even though the first half of our journey was so great, the second part - the safari was just as good. We chose the luxury safari option and it was truly special. The lodges were so luxurious that after the game drives, the accommodations felt like a separate attraction themselves!

We went to all the major national parks and Serengeti was by far the best. Thanks to Khalid, we managed to witness a huge Mara River Crossing from the front lines! His experience helped us get the perfect position for the view, far better than the other cars around us.

We spent the week with our guide Khalid who has a huge love for nature. This is so important because he didnt just give us dry facts but shared true emotions and passion for the wildlife. Young, knowledgeable, with perfect English, caring, flexible, and great at handling various situations for us - Khalid was an amazing companion during lunches and throughout the whole trip. He tirelessly worked the entire time which is rare to find. We have heard so many bad stories from other travelers about guides who were more like drivers than actual guides, but Khalid was top tier and made our experience exceptional.

It was such a great decision to go with African Big Cats Safaris! We compared our costs and experience with friends who did a similar journey through other companies and we realized we got a very good value for our money. Going directly with a local operator really saves a decent amount while giving you a more personal and authentic adventure.

Attentive, responsive, caring
5/5

A truly beautiful trip and a once-in-a-lifetime experience! 🐆✨
Africa Big Cats Safari offered us so much more than just a safari – it was a genuine human experience, full of unforgettable moments. Our guides, Saidi and Gift, were highly knowledgeable, attentive, and passionate, which made every day special. Communication before and during the trip was smooth, fast, and easy, giving us peace of mind from start to finish.
We highly recommend Africa Big Cats Safari to anyone looking for an authentic and unforgettable adventure in Tanzania!
