very good
very good，Overall, it was super interesting! I saw a bunch of animals that I used to only see at the zoo. It was such a great experience. The process of looking for the animals was also really fun. I was so excited that day.

Reliable and available when questions were asked
We booked a 7-day Safari with Jocky Tours and our assigned driver for the trip was Papa John. We had a very great experience and were also lucky enough to see all that is part of a great Safari (Big 5, Cheetas, Hippos and the Kilimanjaro).
Our driver was always helpful and tried to accommodate our needs!

Very-organised and knowledgeable.
My wife and I did a fantastic 4 full day Safari Tour with African Big Cats Safari for our honeymoon through Tarangire National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater and The Serengeti. Our guide Venance was great, showing us all the animals and offering great insight and knowledge about each animal and Tanzania. Emanuel and Naomi were also great in organising the tour and accommodation including accounting for my wife's food allergies. Each Safari Lodge selected was super comfortable. I'd 100% recommend African Big Cats Safaris to any traveller considering a Safari in Tanzania and I have already recommended the company to a number of friends who are interested in this trip.

Beyond the excellent safari was the experience of being catered so attentively
We just spent nine days having our minds blown every day. After the first day at Tarangire our camera already had 600 animal photos. The trip would have been great and we could have just called it a success.
But then….. after the first night in our tented camp we woke up to rustling and opened our tent flap to see a family of twelve elephants had come to see us, literally waving their trunks in greeting.
That type of experience happened EVERY SINGLE day. I cannot say enough praise about Passionate Guides and how Beatus was able to plan this whole experience for our family. In addition to an incredible set of safari days we also took time in Arusha to experience a bit of local culture including getting the best fade haircut a white man might ever experience by going to Beatus's own barber). We also did a 10 mile hike at Kilimanjaro.
Passionate Guides, under his leadership, goes to sleep after you have crashed, wakes up before you to prep supplies for the day, and then spends all day listening to your desires and making sure they get realized. We kept giving new challenges, "that was great but now we would like to see...." and then somehow within 24 hours Beatus kept working it in. We saw more than 120 different species of animals during our trip -and- a wildebeest river crossing to cap it all off.
We simply have never been treated more kindly and attentively than our time with Passionate Guides. Thank you Beatus.

This company is reliable, experienced, patient, so we feel very safe and comfortable.
The schedule is reasonably arranged, and we have seen many animals we wanted to see, so we are very happy.

Jambo! Overall it’s a good experience!
We were very well taken care of. Credit goes to our tour guide, Songe, who was reliable, easy to negotiate with, and able to fulfill most of our requests.
The game drives were fun. It would be good if binoculars could be provided for future drives.
The accommodation was generally good. However, I would suggest reconsidering the accommodation option at Lake Naivasha, as it was below our expectations in terms of food and cleanliness.

Professional, responsive
Booked a 4 day fly on safari staying at Hoyo Hoyo lodge after recommendations from Wayne. All went smoothly. Lodge was amazing with water hole and a variety of animals incl. herds of elephants, giraffe, zebra etc. right across from the lodge. Quality of food was very good. We missed the first game drive due to arriving too late (in winter need to be at the lodge no later than 3pm). Saw the big 5 though, racing to get to see the rare white rhinos. 1st morning we had the vehicle to ourselves, other 4 drives we shared with one other couple (vehicle holds 9 people). Only saw 2 or 3 other vehicles in the park so not overrun with tourists. Limited sightings of lions (we saw 3 cubs, 2 brothers and a mating pair). Highlight was seeing a female leopard in the tree. Wayne provided a personal experience and in communication via WhatsApp and was very responsive with any flight and transfer queries I had. Would happily book another safari with the Kruger travel co.
