African Big Cats Safaris was outstanding, superb, remarkable and fantastic!! The Best!!!
About a year ago I began researching safari companies for Kenya and Tanzania. Afican Big Cats Safaris rose to the top. The initial itinerary was developed with Mr. Frank and the fine tuning, details and logistics were handled by Naomi Kavische. Naomi was responsive, professional, detailed and very efficient from start to finish. We are so impressed with African Big Cats that we strongly consider them before you decide. I simply cannot say enough about our safari experience. Do yourselves a favor and contact African Big Cats Safaris!!!

Another flawless African adventure, thanks to Tanja!
Once again we booked our African adventure, this time to Zimbabwe through Tanja and we wouldn't dream of booking with anyone else. Her professionalism, local knowledge, communication and responsiveness made everything seamless.
The itinerary app was extremely helpful, with detailed information available offline when we had no Wi-Fi. Every lodge and transfer was excellent.
Even when we had a delayed connection to an Airlink flight, Tanja was already sorting it out before we'd said a word. She always stays in touch via WhatsApp throughout, so we always feel looked after.
We highly recommend African Savannah Travel!

Wonderful Safari Experience Beyond Our Expectations
We had a truly wonderful safari experience in Kenya - Masai Mara Lake Nakuru - and could not have been happier with the organisation of the entire trip.
Everything was carefully planned down to the smallest detail, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy the experience from beginning to end. The itinerary was very well organised before our arrival, and everything ran smoothly throughout the trip.
A special mention goes to our guide, who accompanied us for four days and played a huge part in making our safari so memorable. He was always attentive to our needs, kind and discreet, as well as extremely knowledgeable and professional during the game drives. His experience and knowledge of the wildlife made every drive interesting and exciting, and we always felt that he was doing his very best to make our experience special.
The lodges where we stayed (both Sopa Lodges) were beautiful, comfortable and very well chosen. We also really enjoyed the food, which was excellent throughout the trip. The staff at each lodge were welcoming, attentive and did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable.
Overall, the whole safari exceeded our expectations. We felt very well looked after at every stage of the journey and really appreciated the care, professionalism and attention to detail that went into organising it.
We would highly recommend this tour operator to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. It was an unforgettable experience and one that we will remember for a very long time!

8 days safari from Mwanza, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara to Arusha.
We had a very good safari experience with NGAO Safaris, which was largely thanks to our guides, David and Doto. They were very good at spotting wildlife, and shared a lot of interesting knowledge with us. Thanks to their great spotting skills, we saw an incredible amount of wildlife, including the entire Big Five. Moreover, they were responsible drivers.
The only downside was that the program was changed some times along the way due to circumstances. This required a flexible mindset from our side, as the daily schedule was not always what we expected beforehand.
However, the quality of the game drives and lodges made up for this completely.
We had a great experience and a wonderful time. We would certainly book with them again in the future.

Wonderful trip and reliable team
We travelled across four nature reserves and encountered so many fascinating and lovely animals.
This Safari plan is highly reliable. We stayed at satisfying accommodations, and the itinerary was perfectly arranged. The whole trip went seamlessly, delivering an outstanding experience at a great price.
We had three guides, each with their own unique style, and all of them were fantastic. Mbote is cheerful and warm-hearted. He took us to many wonderful photography spots. Siloam is like a stern yet lovely father figure. Thanks to his expertise, we witnessed the wildebeest crossing three times within just two days. Saam is sincere and dependable; he helped us manage our schedule optimally.

Incredible Experience!
It was a once in a lifetime experience and we we got to see every animal we wanted and many many more! Our guide Humphrey was equally incredible with sharing his knowledge, helping us out, and always being friendly, enthusiastic and approachable. Cannot recommend this safari experience enough!

Excellent Experience that was well organised and smooth
We loved our trip to Uganda and that was a large part due to the services of Wild Uganda - booking with them was incredibly smooth, and they were very receptive to customising and making changes for us when we wanted to go somewhere slightly different. They handled everything. It was so nice to travel where all of the accommodation, food, travel, guiding and activities were professionally handled ahead of time. All of the accommodation was fantastic for the price we paid, and we liked the inclusion of a few community lodges as well. While the car was a bit old, that seemed normal for the area and it did the job / didn't let us down! The roads were also generally quite good in most places, making the travel easy.
Benjamin Aine was our guide-driver and he was excellent. He was very communicative, polite, friendly and professional. He had good knowledge of the wildlife and birds for the drives he guided us on and provided excellent commentary and information about all of the places we visited and also taught us a little about the cultures and lives of the people living in Uganda.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Uganda as a destination, and Wild Uganda as a tour company.

Good
The safari itself was a great experience, but unfortunately the organization was really not up to standard. We experienced several issues with communication and transportation. We had informed the team in advance that we had large pieces of luggage, but when our taxi arrived more than an hour late, we were told that we could not take our luggage with us. This caused unnecessary stress, especially as we were not returning to the same hotel. However, after discussing the situation with the team, they were understanding and we eventually found a solution. We appreciated their understanding and were happy to finish our experience on a positive note. Overall, the safari was great, but the organization and communication definitely need to be improved.
