great experience with African Big Cats Safaris
An absolutely unforgettable first safari experience with African Big Cats Safaris! We were initially nervous about our fully customized luxury itinerary (which included a 1 AM JRO airport pickup and transfer to the Arusha Serena Lodge, Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Olduvai Gorge, and both central and northern Serengeti), but the team delivered flawlessly from day one.
Our guide, Khalid, was phenomenal. His deep tracking knowledge helped us spot the entire Big 5 in just one day, including the rare black rhino! As a photography enthusiast, I deeply appreciated how Khalid always anticipated the best lighting and perfectly positioned the vehicle for my shots. If you are looking for a highly tailored, seamless luxury safari, I cannot recommend them enough!

Perfectly organized, Kind and experienced Tour!
As a couple (ages 30 and 29), we had a very positive experience on our safari with this tour operator. A big thank you to the team at Big Cats Safari! We would recommend them to anyone! Making initial contact was very easy, and the customer service team was very helpful and responsive. We received replies very quickly.
The tour operator handled all the planning, so we just had to pay a deposit and then wait for the safari to begin.
The safari is very well organized, and the safari guide is very experienced and knows the area inside and out. In the morning, you drive to the national parks, where the guide picks you up and accompanies you. At noon, there’s a lunch that’s both delicious and generous. This also supports local businesses, since the packed lunches are sourced from them. The accommodations booked by the tour operator are very nice and well-located.
We found them through a recommendation and would highly recommend the tour operator, Big Cats Safari.
We took these photos ourselves while visiting Tarangire National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater.

Best safari ever!
Excellent, extensive and friendly communication before, during and after safari. Flexible in customizing the itinerary, although that was hardly needed since the route and parks suggested as well as the accommodations suggested were perfect for us! Accommodations are all in the best location, luxurious and comfortable. Transportation is very good, clean, spacious, comfortable and well-maintained. Service and guide are excellent! Aside from the trip being very well organized they also add value with thoughtful personal touches, like a personalized bottle of wine for our anniversary and a fridge in the car with our favourite drinks. No surprises. A lot of value for your money, so we can highly recommend!

He was the best !
What an incredible experience! We couldn’t have asked for a better safari and would highly recommend this company to anyone visiting Tanzania.
From the very beginning, everything was smooth and well organized. Communication before arriving in Arusha was excellent, with clear information and support throughout. A special thank you to Joshua for being so helpful and making everything seamless.
We were lucky to have Samuel as our safari guide. His knowledge, professionalism, and passion truly made our trip special. He went above and beyond to ensure we had the best views of the animals, taught us so much along the way, and made every safari drive comfortable, enjoyable, and unforgettable.
We cannot thank Samuel enough for his outstanding work. He is truly an expert, and we would recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional safari experience.
A huge thank you to the entire team at African Big Cats Safari for making this adventure so special. Your professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made everything feel effortless.
We’re leaving with beautiful memories that we’ll cherish for a lifetime. Highly recommended! ❤️

Personalized Excellence
My mom’s dream trip was a Safari and we had no idea who could help us. Through some friends we got in touch with this amazing company and started communicating with William since February. We had so may questions regarding itinerary, places to visit, lodges etc and he was amazing in answering with detail and patience all of them. He made sure we got the best out of our time and budget. It felt custome made for us since day one. We asked for a tour in spanish and got Claus as our guide for all the trip. He was extremely helpful, took care of every single detail and made sure all our expectations were met. The company made us feel listened to and safe in every possible way and they had so much attention to detail it was amazing. We would definitely travel again with African Big Cats Safari.

Amazingly responsive, capable,knowledgeable and expert safari guide!
About a year ago I researched safari companies and African Big Cats Safaris rose to the top easily. The initial itinerary was developed by Mr. Frank. The fine tuning, details and logistics were developed by Naomi Kavishe. Naomi was responsive, professional, friendly and extremely efficient in finalizing and coordinating our safari. It was absolutely and positively a fantastic experience. Our guide in Tanzania was Endeni and he was fantastic! Knowledgeable, professional and so proud of his country! He not only knew how to find wildlife, he also knew Tanzania history that was enlightening!! So if you're looking for a wonderful safari, absolutely contact African Big Cats Safaris! They are the best!!
