An Amazing trip with Big Time Safaris
Big Time Safaris made our trip easy to organise and a truly amazing experience.
From the first contact with them everything was made so easy. I dealt with Martha in their office and she kept in touch and answered all my questions. As I had never been to Kenya, I had plenty of questions to ask and Martha was really helpful. There was no pressure to buy their package and payment is made at the Nairobi office on the day you head off on the trip of a lifetime. We chose a 5 day Safari to Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru and as it was the first time we had done a safari we chose the luxury option. The Sopa chain of lodges we had on the trip were absolutely fabulous and really enhanced our trip. Our guide from Big Time Safaris was Jackson, I can't praise him enough for everything he did to ensure our safari experience was the best it could be.
If you're ever thinking of doing a safari in Kenya I whole heartedly recommend the team at Big Time Safaris.
We had such a great time and if you're planning to go, then contact this company.
It really was one of the best trips we have ever done and would recommend anyone to book and not just think about it.

Amazing guide
Well organized, the guide (Joshua) we had was amazing. He looked out for any animal out there and was all the time very attentive. The budget option accommodation was a little tent village, value for money. The whole team very understanding about any issued that may arise. Happy with our trip.

Nothing but great service
I booked my Safari from new york because Big time had the best prices so who knew what to expect.
They recommended a great hotel for me in Nairobi, got my bus tickets to Mombassa at no extra charge.
Our Safri was wonderful and we had Ken as our guide and driver and we saw everything and more plus he stopped for snacks when my son was hungry. He was fantastic and had connections with other guides so
we got to see it all. Could not be more satisfied. Did Masa Mara and Lake Nakuru; the accommodations at
Masa mara are tents with bathrooms very basic and 4 star at Lake Nakuru. The price might be a bargain but the service is exceptional all around. Love Big Time thanks for making it affordable.

Excellent Service
Big Time Safaris was a blast! Lots of fun during their 7-day tour of Lake Nakuru, Hell's Gate NP, Lake Naivasha, Maasai Mara NP and Amboseli NP. Amboseli is a hidden gem with awesome views of Mount Kilimanjaro and seeing an amazing 420 elephants during our first day (we saw an additional 160 on the second morning). 3 with a baby came to eat bushes 20 feet from our van! The service by our driver and the staff in Nairobi was great. The hotels could be better but other than that we saw so many animals, except for Wild Dogs and Leopards.

Excellent customer service, organisation and Value for money
Big time organised a 11 night stay for us in Kenya and Tanzania. Everything went amazingly well and we loved every minute of the trip. We had an amazing time in the Masai Mara, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro and the Serengeti getting very close to the animals. We were picked up and delivered to the airport before and after the trip and all our other requests were sorted for us. The Tanzania leg was subcontracted to another Safari company but that was all done very professionally and we saw no drop in standard when we crossed the boarder. Would happily recommend big time to anyone looking for a budget safari
Good for budget
Big Time Safari LTD were great at keeping in touch with us before the safari and answered all our queries promptly. Martha was very friendly and helpful- doing everything she could to make our trip memorable. We were picked up and dropped off at the airport (separately as we had different flights) at very awkward times in the morning for free as part of this package. We did the 3 day masai trip which was pretty cheap. You do get what you pay for so cannot expect luxury (accommodation was very basic, food was good though) but every basic need was catered for. Our group had a great dynamic which helped make our trip most enjoyable- we managed to see the majority of the big 5 on our first game drive in the afternoon. Highly recommended.

It was wonderful we could catch the best moments!
Martha, tha manager was super kind with us, she helped since we conntacted with big times about information of the safari and was in touch with us untill we finished the safari. James, our driver was great, super funny and very professional. Our expectations were acomplished and they gave us a experience so much better than we expected! I recommend to everybody to do the safari with big times because the relationship price experience is simply the best.

The safari was fantastic- we got to see everything we dreamed of and our guide was great.
The office staff were helpful with answering g questions prior to the trip. We were pleased to be picked up from the airport, even though our safari didn't start until the next day. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Be prepared for bumpy roads and fast driving! The camp we stayed at was suitable. The beds were not the most comfortable but it was nice to have water and some electricity available. The food was good and all staff members were friendly. The safari was amazing! We were not disappointed. We got to see everything we hoped for and more.
