INCREDIBLE HONEYMOON EXPERIENCE
Phenomal experience from start to finish. I gave this experience 5 stars, but if I could, I would have given it 7 stars! I am very picky and I emailed more than 20 companies when trying to find the best honeymoon safari package to suit my needs, and from the moment I received my first communication from African Big Cat Safaris, I knew they were the company we wanted to go with. Emanuel, our tour operator and personal guide, is the most polite, patient and kind person. Everything was so seamless and I felt really at ease speaking with him. He provided support from beginning to the end with the planning, suggestions for locations and park visits, visa process, and even adapting some last minute changes. Now for the experience, from the moment Emanuel picked us up, he was extremely knowledgeable about every single thing in the area so even driving through the roads from one destination to another was so interesting! The best park was definitely Ngorongoro which we visited on the first day and Emanuel has incredible eyes- he could spot animals from a mile away and gave us so much information about them! We saw 4/5 of the big 5 before lunchtime on the first day of safari and he set up such a romantic lunch for us in the middle of the park with customized wine bottles! The beauty everywhere was incredible, and he really got us to the best angles to take all of our pictures. The highlight was when a huge lion looked at us and walked past the side of our car! A moment we will never forget! They are truly called African Big Cats for a reason! Both of the lodges were fantastic but OH MY GOODNESS, Emanuel prepared the MOST UNFORGETTABLE AND SPECIAL honeymoon experience for us at Lake Manyara Kilimamoja lodge. Everything from the personalized golf cart, to our private butler, and a private dinner under the stars, and breakfast at sunrise overlooking the lake! Emanuel pays attention to every detail to make your experience enjoyable. He really went above and beyond to make every moment of our safari special, and after having such a difficult year in 2020, this 3-day, 2-night safari was the best way to celebrate our honeymoon and end our year! My husband and I are already thinking of coming back to Tanzania to do another safari in Serengeti/Kilimanjaro climb with Emanuel, and I have shared his contact with several friends who want to go on safari soon! I 10/10 recommend Emanuel and his team, and a huge THANK YOU for everything.

Knowledgeable, professional and excellent to work with
From my initial inquiry until the drop off at the airport Emanuel was fantastic to work with.
Emanuel worked with me to customize our safari and everything went very smoothly and was planned perfectly. I was traveling with my 85 year old mother and he was helpful and attentive to her needs. As a guide he is simply amazing and has an uncanny ability to spot elusive animals!
Whether this is your first safari or you’re a safari pro, you’ll appreciate African Big Cats Safaris professionalism and attention to detail. This wasn’t my first safari so I knew what to expect, but Emanuel exceeded my expectations in every regard. He is very knowledgeable and both my mom and I enjoyed having him as our guide. I can’t wait to go back with my girlfriends and I’ll definitely use Emanuel for my next Tanzania adventure!
You have a lot of options when considering a safari in Tanzania, but you won’t go wrong with Emanuel and his team.

Best safari experience
We had an amazing experience with African Big Cats Safaris. Emanuel was very attentive and worked at our own pace. He delivered everything as promised from the choice of accommodation all the way to the game drives. We saw all the big five thanks to his experience in spotting them and the choice of parks. Well done!!

Perfect solution to Covid “cabin fever”
After months of quarantine we needed a break. This was the best decision we ever made. Emanuel assured us the country and in particular his company are taking the necessary precautions to provide a safe and healthy environment. The attention to sanitation was evident in the parks and accommodations. Everyone we met was gracious and welcoming. A perfect time to avoid crowds, see amazing flora and fauna and be guided by Emanuel. The attention to detail from start to finish was exceptional. Having the knowledge of his home country and sharing it with delight made our trip the most memorable of our lives.
Asante sana!

An outstanding safari experience
My wife and I had been on one previous safari vacation and were looking forward to further explorations In Africa. We are so pleased that we discovered African Big Cats to organize and conduct our recent safari trip. Our guide, Goodluck, managed all the details very efficiently and made us feel very comfortable. We learned so much about the culture and customs of the places we visited and are hoping to return again some day. We highly recommend African Big Cats Safaris.

Outstanding experience
My husband and I had an excellent safari experience with African Big Cats Safaris. Our guide, Goodluck, handled everything in a seamless manner. We were introduced to the customs and culture of the country and enjoyed excellent wildlife viewing. This is our second African safari trip and we would never consider booking with any other operator.

If you want a game safari in Tanzania, go with African Big Cats Safaris and guide Emmanuel!
The guide Emmanuel's technique and mind are perfect. Consultation and confirmation of e-mail before departure, airport transfer, detailed briefing, network to get information of animals from friends by wireless (of course, Big 5 won), driving skills towards points, abundant expertise, selection of lodging lodge There is no point to mention good points, such as mediation, gentle personality and hospitality, and proactive action that always solves problems, but all of them gave me safety, security, comfort and 100% satisfaction. Was. Thanks for Emmanuel, a wonderful safari experience! ! !
