Unforgettable wild memories!
5/5

We have done a 6 days safari at Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Manyara national Park. African Big Cats Safari has prepared us an outstansing experience with some greats places to sleep in the middle of wild big cats. Thanks to the significant experience of our guide, Loradgard, who was always concerned about our satisfaction, we have seen incredible thinks like the BIG 5 and even more (group of lions eating or hunting, 5 cheetahs eating, hyenas, babies lions ans babies cheetahs and even a leopard at less than 2 meters!). He will share with you his love of animal and knowledge with always a smile. Loradgard was always flexible in order to permit us seeing a lot of thinks from animals to landscapes. That's a big reason why this experience was far above our expectations. Thank you guys for making this travel as a dream! We definitely recommend that company at 100 %. ASANTE SANA.

Big Migration North Serengeti and 3 other parks
5/5

We had amazing time on a private safari for two. I would strongly recommend to choose private tour in a case you' like to take some nice photos and videos. Furthermore comfort and luxury level accommodation gives you some further convenience.

Amazing experience!
5/5

During COVID times, starting to plan a trip like this it's complicated, but African Big Cats Safaris (ABCS) were very helpful, and even with short planning time they gave us a great deal. They were fast replying to all our concerns and they help us with every detail of the trip.

The experience was unique and outstanding. Our guide, his name is Endeni, did a GREAT effort to give us an amazing experience. Day after day he was respectful but also close to us, telling us interesting tips about wildlife and also about Tanzania. He has a great instinct, thanks to him we had great views of some animals. He was one member of our group and we will always remember this trip with him.

ABCS is a company that takes charge of everything, leaving to us the easy part, enjoy the trip! They took care of good accommodations and meals. They picked us up at the airport and the first day gave us all the important information for the following days, they are a close-to-customer company and they help us with a lot of things.

I want to also acknowledge Emmanuel (person in charge) and Justice (customer support).

Best Safari Tour operator in Tanzania!!
5/5

They are the best Safari tour operator in Tanzania!! Here are the reasons why:

Organisation: Thanks to Justice and Emmanuel you are able to organise your trip from anywhere in the world. Communication is smooth, as they will be in touch via email or WhatsApp to make sure everything is perfectly organised before, during and after your Safari.
Guides: They have the most experienced guides. Our was Endeni, a super friendly guy that accompanied us during the whole tour. He is knowledgeable, punctual, and communicative. At the end after spending 4 days with him, Endeni became almost like family. He can speak perfect english, italian and spanish.
Cars: They have top quality 4x4 Toyota Land Cruisers with beverages, charging stations and everything you need to be comfortable during the game drives.
Accommodations: The accommodations were comfortable, with natural scenery, friendly staff, and very good food.

Overall, make sure to book your Safari with African Big Cats and ask for Endeni as your guide - believe me you won’t regret it :)

Outstanding service. Enhanced the whole safari experience. Highly recommended.
5/5

A safari is an experience that I recommend to anyone that wants to do something extraordinary during their holidays. It will put you in direct contact with wildlife in its most intact and natural way, and this makes it a life-changing experience. On top of this, we were lucky enough to have chosen African Big Cats to arrange our tour. There are several reasons why this company made our trip even better than we would have expected.

For starters, the communication is fluent, frequent, and transparent. If you have any doubts, any requests, any last-minute changes, or anything that might be important to clear out before, during, and after your tour, you can count on Justice to clear any of them or support you. They're responsive via email or Whatsapp, and if you are coming from a country far from Tanzania to do this trip, this is something you appreciate.


Although it is likely that each safari is different, ours started in Arusha, where our guide picked us at the airport and took us to a lodge where we met the rest of the team and spent the first night. This hotel, like any other hotel that hosted us during the safari, was particularly nice, with natural scenery, friendly staff, and very good food. As I said, it might be different from one tour to the other, but overall they offer anything you need to rest properly between days. Keep in mind that you won't be spending much time in the hotels, so you are aiming for good food and a good night's sleep. The Ilboru Safari Lodge, Eileen's Trees Inn, and the Heritage Tented Camp check positively on both topics.

The hotels' staff deserves extra credit. During our tour, one of our friends was having her birthday, and the staff at Eileen's Trees Inn arranged everything to make sure we could celebrate it. Each and every one of the lodges and hotels where we stayed was different, but overall they complement the safari quite well. This is because they are relatively close to the national parks we visited and offer exactly what we wanted. Actually, and in all fairness, the pictures that you might access online do not reflect what the hotels and inns are actually like. They're much nicer in real life. Be reassured that the hotels are excellent and in our case went above expectations.

I'll continue with the most important part of the tour. The guide. Ours was Endeni, a super friendly guy that accompanied us during the whole tour. He is knowledgeable, witty, punctual, and communicative. African Big Cats has other guides I'm sure, but if they are any like Endeni you're in great hands. My advice to anyone doing the safari is to become friends with your guide, ask them about their trajectory and the things they have done and seen. They will tell the story of a unique country, going from its recent story, its current status and of course, the wildlife. As mentioned before, ours was Endeni. The dude's a legend, you will be lucky if you get him.

During our safari, we visited three places. The Tarangire National Park, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and the Serengeti. This review won't have any spoilers, that part I will leave it out. But do expect to learn a lot, amazing views, and close contact with wild animals. The tour can't guarantee it, by all means, but in general, you will see something unexpected frequently. The car is comfortable and you can enjoy cold drinks while at it. On top of it, our car had chargers so you can use your phone along the tour (for pictures, I hope).

In general, going on a safari is a life-changing experience. African Big Cats makes the experience significantly better.

Best experience ever!!
5/5

Our experience with African Big Cats Safari was wonderful. The attention and care since the very first consultation was great, Justice solved all kinds of doubts, with fast and personalized attention

Already in Tanzania, our guide was Endeni. He managed to make us fall in love with Tanzania, with each story, with each anecdote, with everything he knew about animals, with his ability to take us to see incredible animals from 3 meters up close, guided by a simple footprint in the sand and mainly, for being a great person. (Endeni, we miss you!! ♥)

We knew that Tanzania and the experience of a Safari was going to be incredible, but they managed to exceed our expectations: the hotels were great, the kindness and help made us feel at home away from home, the food and preparation of everything, they left us very happy.

Emanuele, Justice and Endeni, you made us VERY happy!!! We carry you guys in our hearts!

The good experience was worth 1000%. Come to Africa and do this Safari!!

Great safari with a great guide !
5/5

We had a lot of questions before booking the safari and Justice, from Big Cats safari, was really patient and answered all our questions very quickly. Then, we did the safari with Lodi, a great french speaking safari, who knows everything about animals. We had so much fun and emotions ! The hotels were great, the food was nice (even for a vegetarian), and the price was really reasonable. We would definitely come back to do another safari with Big Cats safaris ! Thanks to the team !

Best experience ever
5/5

It was a wonderful way to discover the wild side of Tanzania! The prize totally deserves the experience. The guide, Endeni, explained us all about the different animals with his amazing knowledge about it in a perfect Spanish. Also before travelling we had a really good service coming from Justice and Emanuelle.
The hotels selected where really nice and also the food there. One of the places where we slept was in the middle of the Serengueti!
Cool spots, drinks and friends. Totally recommended. Best plan ever!
