The best possible safari experience we could have imaginged!
5/5

We were a group of four. Our safari was 10 days in September. We visited Sinya and stayed at Kambi ya Tembo camp in Amboseli Nation al Park, Tarangire National Park and stayed at Lake Burunge Baobab Lodge. We visited lake Manyara National Park and Ngorongoro Crater and stayed at Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge. We visited The Serengeti and stayed in Dove Serengeti Camp and Maramara Tented Lodge.
Our personal tour guide was amazing. He was experienced, very knowledgeable about the animals and their habitats/behaviors. He was very patient and kind, not just with us but with the other tour providers/guides. He was always with us and he made sure all of our needs were met. We had water and other drinks available to us in our safari vehicle and the picnic lunches were plentiful and very tasty.
We saw enormous amount of animals and were able to see the wildebeest and zebras migrate across the Mara river.
The accommodations were wonderful. Clean, well equipped and appointed. My husband and I go camping, but these tented camps and lodges were glamping plus! The staff at all of the camps were very personable and we felt well cared for.
The food was delicious and plentiful, even in the most remote camps. Meals were prepared for us and most nights were four courses, soup, salad, main (meat, fish, chicken) vegetables ( usually four) and dessert.
Many of the camps had pools and fire pits we could enjoy.
We ended our safari trip with a three day stay in Zanzibar which was at the lovely Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort. This was also arranged for us by African Big Cats Safari.

Outstanding tour company
5/5

Four of us have just returned from a 10 day safari in Tanzania and we could not have asked for a more thoughtful, experienced and professional company than African Big Cats. From our first day of enquiry to our last day on tour they were amazing to work with, tailoring our itinerary to our personal interests, responding immediately to any enquiries before and during our tour and providing the most excellent professional guide in Endeni. We felt safe and exceedingly well taken care of. Our lodgings along the way were 5 star in every way, thoughtfully located with amazing views and great service. We looked forward to our food and rest at the end of the day knowing it was going to be amazing.

We saw every creature imaginable including the Big 5. Our guide, with 15 years experience, loved his country, the people and the animals. We learnt a great deal from him. He was always thoughtful to our needs and levels of interest, taking care that we were comfortable and moving at the pace we desired.

The owner of Big Cats met with us personally at the start of the trip to go over our itinerary. This is a Tanzanian based local company who love what they do. They are superbly professional. The entire trip was excellent value for money and I would not hesitate to recommend this company for providing a once in a lifetime experience in Tanzania.

Thank you so much, African Big Cats, for making our dream Safari come true.

Simply Outstanding
5/5

We commenced planning our Safari nearly 2 years ago. We put out our brief to 3 top rated companies on Trip Advisor. African Big Cat Safaris (ABC) was the only company that listened to our brief AND made constructive recommendations.

From day 1, the communication with William from the Planning Departing, to Naomi from the Operations Department was nothing short of fantastic.

We had allowed 2 day’s rest prior to our 14 day safari, as we were travelling away from home for nearly 5 months. However, we were hampered by 3 x flight cancellations and delays right up to the 11th hour and Naomi was there all the way for us, making sure our pickup in the early hours of the morning was arranged. We arrived with 2 hours to spare before the start of our Safari Day, our rest days were eaten up with flight delays.

Well, we didn’t think it could get better, but it did!

Festo, our guide, picked us up at the Airport, a big smile greeted us. While we were tired and jet lagged from the delays, what a greeting.
Festo was simply outstanding. He could spot birds and wildlife from a great distance, and his knowledge was superb.
Day 2 or 3 in, we saw the Cheetah. Then 4 leopards in one day, and of course we saw the Big 5 during the course of our safari. We were guided by Festo’s timekeeping on what time to depart each morning, and within minutes of arriving at the River, we saw a major Wildebeest Crossing.

Then we moved from there and within another 10 minutes was another major crossing! His timing was always 100% perfect.

At all times, Festo was looking after us, explained everything, and we couldn’t have been better looked after. He didn’t rush us, when we just wanted to sit and enjoy the animals and the moment, plus taking photos etc.

One good thing about being on a 14 day Safari, we were able to actually visit some Villages, which many people wouldn’t see in a 7 day Safari. This helped us understand the culture. We visited the Bush people, and the Masai. This was incredible. My husband participated in some of their spear throwing and bow and arrow events. He loved it.

We would like to thank the entire team at ABC for an amazing life adventure, a real highlight of our 5 months of travelling.

It is a huge leap of faith and trust with booking direct online, and not via a Travel Agent, however, from day 1, ABC were incredible.

Festo is an absolutely top guide, and please ask for him! We absolutely trusted him, and over 2 weeks, he became our best friend and loved him for that.

Our memories of our trip, are just not of the wildlife, but also the wonderful time we enjoyed with him, and he made our outstanding trip was it was. Thank you Festo and the ABC Team, from Andrew, Mary-Anne & Helen.

5/5

We had the most wonderful honeymoon with African Big Cats! From our initial email communications, Joshua was really helpful and patient with us getting started and confirming our dates and setting the itinerary. Naomi was so helpful in organising the trip, answered all our questions and made sure everything was sorted for us. The company is so professional and takes so much pride in what they do. Emmanuel, the owner, took a close and personal interest in the trip to discuss feedback and check we were happy with everything. The entire trip was so well taken care of and we didn’t have to worry about anything.
Our game drives were absolutely incredible and the whole trip far exceeded our expectations!! Our guide, Claus, was excellent! He was so patient with us taking so many photos and made every effort for us to see so many animals including the big 7! He drove so well and whilst we saw some animals really close up, he is really respectful of the animals. We enjoyed our time so much with him, we learned Swahili and just had such a good time that it felt difficult to leave! We loved Tanzania and the people are wonderful – if you are thinking about going on Safari, this company is excellent and I would highly recommend them!!
