Excellent and very reliable tour operator
Very reliable tour operator, they provided everything it was written in the package and a little bit more. All the accommodations were very good and clean, with good food too. Our guide was Zablon and he knew everything about the animals, plants and the region, a very good and nice person, very reliable.

Justice Justine is the BEST planner/advisor! She answers every question thoroughly and expertly
Justice is an expert! We have confidence that our safari and our beach time in Zanzibar will be the best it can possibly be. Our family group is 10, ages 7-70, so to accommodate all of us is a challenge. Justice has done us Justice! Trust her with your trip!

5 stars for African Big Safaris
There are millions of safaris tours in Arusha, so was difficult to select one form all options, but African Big Cats Safari were very communicative from the start and accommodate the tour to all our needs and our budget. We spent 4 days doing a tour through several national parks. Emmanuele came the first day to the hotel to brief us on the programme of the next few days and the following day, our guide, Ernest came to pick us up. Ernest spent 4 days with us. He was funny and very friendly and he was very keen to answer all our questions. His knowledge about wildlife was incredible. He was also very keen to show us as much wildlife as possible, making our tour incredible with a lot of sightseeing: elephants, lions, cheetah, hippos and even a leopard! our experience with African Big Cats Safari was simply incredible, and we would recommend it to anyone.

Excellent, exceeded my expectations
Since I started to chat with ABC Safaris, they were very attentive and willing to solve all problems, (we live in Argentina and it´s very difficult make payments to a foreign countries actually). All the peoples that talk to us was exceptionally kind. Our guide Venance, great man, very prepared, predisposed to satisfy our requests to stop to observe anything and for the time we needed. He drives also excellent and all time was looking for our security (even after finished his services, was concerned about our safety, because we took a cheap hotel for few hours before our flight, and he chat with us by whatsapp to know if we are safe) Special thanks to him, and I recommend asking for his services, both for his experience and for his work ethic and commitment to make our experience unforgettable, as well as for what a great person he is. We were able to see the big 5, and all the wonderful animals of that beautiful country that is Tanzania.

We had a great time with African Big Cats Safaris !!!!
We really had a great time in Tanzania with African Big Cats Safaris and we highly recommend to do a Safari with them. We choose a 4 nights/ 5 days safari.
Our guide Lodi picked us up from the airport (even as our plane was very late and arrove after midnight), he was a good driver and knew all the places to be and the habits of the animals we were looking for. We always felt save and in good hands with him and he brang us back to the airport in the end.
The lodges were luxury with comfortable beddings, the food was of high quality.
Emmanuel and his team arranged an extra night in a lodge close to the Kilimandjaro airport so we could see the mount Kilimanjaro before flying back to Zanzibar (as this was a dream of mine).
I would like to add that the tanzanien people we have met during our Safari were extremely friendly and nice to us. We never heared one bad word.
All was well organized from the beginning till the end!
We are grateful for the good time we have spent together.

VERY PROFESSIONAL
We can only recommend this tour operator for your safari. They were extremely professional both when creating the itinerary and during the tour. They advised us best based on our needs and time/financial availability. Our driver was also top notch. Excellent judgement.

Excellent service, catered to your needs, in an amazing country!
Some friends and I booked a safari package with this agency that included visits to Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Manyara National Parks. From the start we were pleased with the welcoming people who took care of us, including our guide Endeni and the manager Emmanuel. The vehicle we used was in perfect conditions and the hotels picked for our stay were amazing choices. Our highlight was the stay in Serengeti NP, where you could hear all animals in the night.
The agency provided food for us during the safaris or game drives and had a great kit to do so. Overall, we had an amazing experience and got to see lots of animals and beautiful places. We went at the end of the rainy season and totally recommend it to go on your safari. We got to see the mass migration in Serengeti and the “big 5” during our visit. The guide was very capable detecting animals and birds, and surprisingly he spoke our native language (Spanish) really well.
The trip with African Big Cats Safaris exceeded our expectations and we totally recommend you book with them!

Trustworthy, professional and ready to take the exta mile to make the experience amanzing.
My husband and I embarked on an extraordinary honeymoon safari in Tanzania, visiting Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti National Park, and Lake Manyara National Park. Our tour guide, Venance from African Big Cats Safari, made our experience truly unforgettable. With his expertise in Tanzanian wildlife and culture, every moment was filled with knowledge and wonder.
The timing of our trip was perfect, as we arrived at the end of the rainy season and enjoyed good weather throughout. In Tarangire National Park, we encountered elephants and adorable lion cubs, setting the stage for an incredible journey.
On day two, we were thrilled to witness the Big Five, including lions, elephants, rhinos, leopards, and buffalo, in both Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park. It was a captivating experience that left us in awe of nature's magnificence.
One of the highlights was the beginning of the Great Wildebeest Migration in Serengeti National Park. Thousands of wildebeest and zebras traversing the plains created an indescribable spectacle, symbolizing the eternal cycle of life.
Venance's passion for Tanzania, its wildlife, and culture was evident throughout the journey. His storytelling and expertise enhanced our understanding and appreciation of the surroundings.
In summary, our honeymoon safari in Tanzania surpassed all expectations. From the remarkable wildlife sightings to the exceptional guidance of Venance, every aspect was exceptional. For an unforgettable honeymoon experience that combines stunning landscapes, incredible wildlife encounters, and a deep connection with nature, a safari in Tanzania is a must.

Amazing once in a life time experience!
This company goes above and beyond for their clients. Our guide Lordi was excellent and went out of his way to make sure we saw all the wildlife we were looking for. He also provides pretty good life advice as well! The owner of the company greets you when you arrive and explains your itinerary before you start. They offered us assistance even after our tour was over and we ended up using them for advice on tours in zanzibar, they were happy to help with suggestions. A great aspect as well was flexibility, if you want to stop somewhere or start the day later for instance it's all possible.
We were there for our honeymoon and upon finding that our they notified all of our accommodations and we always arrived to nicely decorated rooms to celebrate the occasion. I highly recommend this company.
