Attentive.Dedicated.Caring.Reliable
5/5

We received several offers from different companies for our Safari tour. After reviewing the offers, we found the 9-Day Honeymoon Safari package from African Big Cats and thought it would be perfect for our 25th wedding anniversary celebration. Knowing nothing about the company, we first reviewed their information, then looked at their reviews. They received good reviews everywhere we saw, so we decided to go with them.
African Big Cats walked us through this entire process with care. They required an initial deposit, and the balance was due three weeks before arrival - I appreciated that. Naomi was patient, dedicated, responsive, and attentive to every detail. She arranged our flight to and from Zanzibar. She even took care to recommend a day hotel to rest before our flight home. This recommendation was the respite we didn’t know we needed, but she did. We were able to get some rest, shower, and eat a meal before heading to the airport for the 25-hour flight home.
In addition, it was great to have Emmanuel meet us before the journey began to check on us and discuss our Safari trip. Our guide, Venance, was very informative, answering questions, providing context, and information regarding people, places, and things. He is well-versed in the ecosystem and animals in each park. The lunches for each day were good, and every lodge chosen in the package was outstanding, and the service was impeccable. We were in awe with each one having its unique design and architecture. Each lodge celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary, and each time was special, a memory to never forget.
Our beach journey was great too. Our car service was with Simba Tour, and again, they took care of us. The Z Hotel was beautiful.
If you want to feel safe, secure, and loved, then choose African Big Cats for your Safari journey – we are so glad that we did!

Lifetime experience with a great company and great guide
5/5

5-day tour going through Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Manyara was spectacular, each one with a different landscape. We saw incredible scenes of so many different animals. The trip was perfectly organised, with time for adventure and time to rest and relax. Would 100% recommend this company for people doing a safari. Our guide Elias was incredible, very knowledgeable, experienced and dependable, and also a very good company. He knew where to find all the animals and de felt total confidence in him from the first moment. The accommodations and food were nice, and the route through the parks was well planned.

Amazing !!!
5/5

We have done a 7-day tour and everything has been perfect! We have seen the 5 great and many animals thanks to the driver/guide Jonh Walter who tried hard to find animals and that we could take photos from different angles, it has been a great experience, the time is optimized to the maximum, I recommend 100% the company jockey tours and its driver/guide Jonh Walter.

All went perfect
5/5

Incredible. We didn't know what to expect because it was our first time in Kenya, but it exceeded all our expectations. John Walter is a driver/guide who made it possible for us to see the Big 5, always trying to help us, explaining things, and with a great sense of humor. On the other hand, upon arrival, we didn't have a Spanish-speaking guide as we had agreed, but two hours into the trip, when we thought we wouldn't have one, they found one and he came with us. Furthermore, they picked us up promptly and dropped us off at the airport on time. I would definitely go back and recommend it.

Very articulate, kind approachable and all around fun.
5/5

The safari was incredible, from start to finish, our operator wisdom was just as his name, he had so much wisdom and so much knowledge about the animals, his surrounding, he was so articulate, his English was better than mine and I’m British! The food break was so tasty and the drinks were lovely. Just a great atmosphere. We also appreciated how the team worked well together, it made us feel safe, excited about the animals we were about to see. We would recommend this trip one thousand percent and will definitely do it again. Hopefully wisdom will still be around to share his wisdom and knowledge with us and our friends when we get back.

Thank you so much to the team and wisdom, from Mel, Penelope, Luke, yvonne, main, Khaya and Niale

Best possible way to start our honeymoon!
5/5

My wife and I had the best possible safari with Dancing Simba. Their attention and services have been way over our expectations. They truly made sure we had a wonderful honeymoon safari, and they succeded in it! Lucy has always been available for anything from the moment of the booking to after the end of our trip. We recommend Dancing Simba 100% as we already did with our friends ans family.

Excellent and truly worth the money!
5/5

We booked a 6 day Maasai Mara - Nakuru - Ol Pejeta Tour with Axis Safaris.
Rama was our tour guide, friend and companion and our window to Kenya for these days.
I can easily say - our trip was worth every $ spent. We saw the big 5, spent hours doing it the bush drive and heard interesting tales along the way. We also stayed in 2 really nice Lodges as part of our package - Jambo Mara (at Maasai Mara) and Sarova Maiyan (at Pejeta).

I recommend Axis highly. Please however book your Safari in advance to get the best deals. You will have all the fun you can imagine.

Thanks Rama and Rita (our Tour advisor who patiently answered all our questions and clarifications during the process of booking and finalizing our itinerary).

Great, very reliable, smooth experience

We had a great experience with Joseph who drove our family from our safari lodge in madikwe to jnb airport. He was friendly, on time, reliable, and got us to the airport safely. Would recommend booking with safari Link in the future!
