Good Company, Best Guide
We have done a tour of 14 day around Kenya. We just rent the van for a cheep price. The guide/driver and the fueil were included. The best part of this company is the people. The boss, John, is a humble and funny guy. Albert also made it easy for us, and helped us to find the best offer for us.
But the best one, it was our guide. So if you can, ask for Mansoor. He knows everything, he is a very good driver, and he can explains you everything about wildlife and Kenya, any topic. We are happy with this company bescause of the people.
So thank you, and we will recomend you in Spain.
Asante Sana,

Good Value for Money
We visited Masai Mara for this trip (3 days) last July 6-9, 2016. We are happy overall for the services provided from airport pick-up up till the end of the trip. Though at early July the animals are difficult to track we did enjoyed our first African Tour. This trip was a great introduction to Africa. Special thanks to Martha.

Very good experience and was easy to deal with
The tour was my first safari in Africa. It was an amazing experience and exciting time very well enjoyed. The initial communications and arrangements were very good. Picking and dropping were on time and punctually done by drivers. The accommodation was marvelous and so food. All was excellent and I would like to thank the whole team and especially Martha. Hope to join you again for another safari trip.

Great Value, Great Service, Truly Excellent Staff!!!
I cannot say enough about how great my experience was with Big Time Safaris. From the very beginning, they went out of their way to accommodate my crazy arrival plans and actually dispatched someone to scoop me up so to help me be on time for my safari to Masai Mara. I was running really late and my plans were on the verge of completely falling apart when they dispatched private transport to pick me up and get me where I needed to be (without extra fees or charges!). No other safari company would have gone out of their way in this fashion. Truly, I wouldn't have had my vacation plans intact if they hadn't intervened to help me. In addition, when I lost my property, they actually sent someone - and I'm not making this up- hundreds of miles away to find my lost property and then drove it to where I was in Masai Mara to return it to me. I mean, who does that?! Big Time Safaris, that's who. They deserve awards for that kind of customer service. They were just on a whole different level. I mean, really nice staff and willing to go above and beyond to help their clientele in their time of need. On top of all this, they offered the best safari deal in Kenya with amazing access to the park with an experience that was unforgettable. Not only did they salvage my trip from falling apart, they made it spectacular. They were the key difference in me having an amazing time and they were such lovely, generous people in the process. I will definitely be giving them my business next time I'm in East Africa.

frist time on safari: it was fantastic
We saw all the big 5. The tour was perfectly organized. Our guide richard was awesome and the food was good. Only thing to complain: there was no hot shower even if they told us there is one.

My experience with Big Time Safaris was wonderful.
Our group bus was ok, even tough some of the road to reach Masai Mara was just awful. The camping place was good, we had warm shower and possibility to charge batteries. The guide was amazing and knew every bird and animal. As he had so good knowledge of nature we had a change to see almost all animals. We saw even leopard trying to catch a wild big. Really amazing. The contact from the Big Time Safari, who is doing the paperwork- Martha is just a wonderful and big hearted woman! All the collective was really honest and doing their work from their heart. I really recommend!
Awesome Tour Company with Great Guides
I took a 5 day safari with Kenya Budget Safaris, which was incredible, but we stayed at a camp owned by Big Time Safaris and traveled with their guides and they did an excellent job. The staff was nice, knowledgable and were safe drivers. I saw their logo at a lot of stop to and from the Maasai Mara game reserve, so they are a popular and reputable choice for tourists.
