Outstanding service and value fully focused on customer satisfaction delivering at every level.
5/5

Our initial contact,some three months ago,was with William who helped plan our itinerary.He offered valuable input and patiently offered ideas and suggestion to come up with out final excellent draft tour.Fantastic communication at every stage.The admin was then passed to Naomi who was also very easy to deal with and responded promptly and helped us negotiate the funds transfer.
We were met at Arusha airport by our driver guide Thomas and had a brief tour overview with Emanuel who summarised the delights that lay ahead of us.
We consider ourselves so fortunate to have had Thomas lead us through the most amazing week in the Serengeti.His knowledge kindness and sense of humour has given us memories that left us in awe.
The accomodation at every stop excelled and was staffed by lovely people.
To cap the perfect trip we were fortunate enough to see the Big 5 and witness the migration of the Wilderbeest. Thank you Thomas!
We have no hesitation in recommending African Big Cats Safaris.

We cannot say enough good things about Big Cats African Safari and our wonderful guide, Omega. From the initial planning stages, their communication was prompt, professional, and incredibly helpful. They expertly balanced our specific interests—such as adding a day hike on Mt. Kilimanjaro and witnessing the Great Migration—with their own deep expertise to design the perfect loop through Tanzania. Our ten-night itinerary included Mt. Kilimanjaro, Tarangire, multiple regions of the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. Leading up to our trip, they provided excellent guidance on what to expect and how to prepare for the trip. Once we arrived, the whole trip was seamless. Omega met us at the airport and was an extraordinary guide throughout the duration of our journey. Manuel from Big Cats also met with us upon our arrival to help us know what to expect each day.

Omega worked tirelessly to ensure we had a world-class experience. His knowledge of the local wildlife and the region was remarkably impressive – a function of his inquisitive nature and many years of study. He was also very responsible about not disturbing animals in their habitat. Together with this expertise, Omega’s friendly nature and his focus on our safety and comfort made the trip into memories for a lifetime. We were particularly impressed that Omega often knew how to find animals based on his educated hunches – rather than following other safari vehicles to the obvious highlights. Because of his expertise and his sharp eyes, we saw every animal we could have hoped to see – e.g., lions, leopards, cheetahs, black rhinos, white rhinos, elephants, giraffes, warthogs, zebras, wildebeest, and many many others. And birds! Once Omega learned that we were also interested in birds, he was able to help us spot and learn about hundreds of different birds.

For our accommodations, Big Cats selected tented camps that were clean, comfortable, friendly, and perfectly located for spotting wildlife. In the end, the price was similar to three other quotes we received from various safari companies. But we learned that some companies were more reluctant to help us design a custom itinerary – Big Cats worked with us every step of the way. We’ve been lucky go on several African safaris and many games drives. Big Cats was far and away our best experience.

Elias was fantastic
5/5

Highlights of our trip was the Serengeti, we saw so many big cats, it was amazing. The crater was good too. All the accommodation we stayed at was unique, and an experience adding to our safaris. We did the hot air balloon and had breakfast on the open plains, it was great, highly recommend.

Incredible Honeymoon Trip
5/5

Great service from the landing to flying home. We booked a honeymoon trip that included 5 days of safari and 3 days in Zanzibar. Our guide Venance was incredible and showed us the Big 5 animals and all the rest we wanted to see. He was very knowledgeable. The head director Immanuel was very friendly. High attention to detail and great accommodations booked.

THE BEST!! I would 100% recommend this company to anyone who will listen. Trip of a life time.
5/5

We have traveled to many places. We always wanted to go on a safari. A friend recommended African Big Cats Safaris. We did some research and went with them.BEST DECISION! The trip was a trip of a life time for my family of 4 adults. First communicating with the company was easy. They being Joshua and Naiomi were very quick to get back to us and answer all of our questions. We set up 8 day safari. We went to Lake Manyara, Tarangerie NP, Olduvai Gorge,Ngorongor NP, the Serengeti and the Western Corridor to see the wildebeest migration. The last day we did a day hike on Kilimanjaro. They did everything they promised. A manager Emmanuel came out to our hotel in Arusha and walked us throught the tour just to make sure we were on the same page. They set us up in fabulous accomodations and we did the middle expense trip. I had to double check since the places we stayed were so nice. The food at the lodges they booked us was great. Breakfasts were a variety of foods. Lunch was either boxed or in a basket. We had some great lunches in the basket. Dinners were a buffet with plenty to choose from. They lodges would meet us at the drive way with a warm towel and a glass of juice. Perfect after a day of viewing. Our GUIDE WAS AMAZING! Our guide Klaus was fabulous. We were like family by the end of trip. He was so informative. He answered all our questions about nature, the Maasai and Tanzania in general. He had a great laugh and sense of humor. So many other guides knew him we called him the "mayor". He spotted things for us that we had no idea were even there. He saw this femal lion in the bushes waiting on a wildebeest that we had no idea was even there and we zoomed in up close in the Land Cruiser. He was not intrusive. He shared at times without being asked. Klaus quickly picked up our family vide and went at the pace we wanted and focused on things that we cared about. He was never in a rush and waited patiently for us to view what we wanted for however long. We stayed an hour and watched a gazelle be born and take its first steps. By the end we were all cheering on the little guy including Klaus. Even though we are not big birders he would point out different birtds and give us good information about them. He spotted the crocs for us which we would have missed. He pushed us to see the rhinos right away in Ngorongoro Crater because he knew we might not get another chance to see them. He was 100% correct. He was prompt and respectful and flexible. He took us to some out of the way spots that were great viewing. We felt like we left a family member behind when we left. We did a group hug at the end. The guide they gave us for Kilimanjar, Elias, was amazing. So knowledgeable, polite and easy to talk to. He had great information and some incredible stories about the mountain and some of his climbs. We can't say enough good things about our two guides. This story I feel like sums up the company itself. We had an early flight out of JRO and needed to leave the hotel at 6:30 am. The hotel shuttle was at 7. I talked to African Big Cat Safari and they quickly arranged at no extra cost a ride to the airport at 6:30. It took 2 minutes to arrange. The driver was there at 6:20 am waiting for us. Was just such an easy trip. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY 100% We had a triip of a life time thanks to African Big Cat Safari.
