What an unforgettable experience!!
We are a family of 4 (women-3 generations) that went on our first safari with African Big Cats at the last week of November 2024. From booking to arrival to our final day with Big Cats, the service was exceptional. We chose to book our flights separately due to being in separate areas of the US, however, Big Cats offered to help if we needed to book. We booked the luxury package for 7 days. All our pre safari questions were answered quickly and our guide met us at the airport to take us to our first hotel in Arusha. They say the guide makes the safari and this couldn't be more true. Shout out to our amazing and very knowledgeable guide Ndenny (11 years of guiding experience) who seemed to spot the animals from miles away (we saw 4 of the Big 5 the first day!) as well as all the bird identification. Communication was easy and itinerary was discussed at the beginning and during the safari. The hotel accommodations were superb and the meals (packed lunches for the safari and dinners) were very good. Big Cats went above and beyond to make this trip truly unforgettable and I would not hesitate to book with them again in the future!
Great experience, great communication, great website, great guide, worth the money
Best vacation ever! Our guide Elias was amazing. He was able to answer all our questions, knew all the names of the animals, knew all the roads like the back of his hand, very helpful when communicating with other cars to know where to find animals. We used African big cat safaris and it was a great experience, their website is very well made, it was informative and organized. They allowed for full customization of your trip to any degree of luxury. We did the 10 day honeymoon experience 1 night Arusha gran Meliá amazing breakfast, 1 night Tarangire, 1 night Ngorongoro, 3 night Serengeti, 3 night Zanzibar. We highly recommend something similar maybe more days to not be so rushed, we also recommend doing the hot air balloon ride even if afraid of heights. Overall African big cat safaris was a great experience and would highly recommend to use! Also I recommend getting an eSIM to stay with data for communication we used sparks it worked well. For cash, 1000 for 2 people for 10 days is plenty, accounting for tips and souvenirs, food in all safari is included . If you want to buy tanzanite jewelry I recommend 2000-3000 cash some places charge 5% credit card fee. Visitor center in Serengeti has great jewelry and no fee on cards.
Superior guide (Lordlugrd), Excellent accommodation, prompt communication; a welcoming experience
Our Guide Lordlugrd made our the trip safe, informative and fun. He cared about the animals and knew their behaviors and where and how to spot everything.. He was well liked by the other guides and by staff at all the accommodations. All the staff at African Big Cats Safaris were quick to reply and pivot when plans changed. The vehicle was spotless every morning when we were picked even after all the mud around the hippos.. Lordlugrd took good care of us and was an excellent ambassador for the company.
The accommodations, the food and the people were all first rate.
This was a trip of a lifetime. We saw and experienced what I call "Going Back In Time". There are so many wild animals and interesting cultures to experience. Tanzania is like stepping into another world
Don't miss out on doing a night drive, a hot air balloon ride and a walking tour while on Safari.
Amazing service!
We chose African Big Cats to organize our honey moon safari trip. It was without a doubt the best decision we made. Starting from an excellent communication to plan the trip. They were super flexible to modify their luxury standard plan according to our requirements. Then during the trip the guide/driver had an incredible knowledge of the Serengeti, Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and all the animals we encountered, and he had a really good attitude all the time. The food in the lodges and the lunch boxes were amazing as well. Most of important of all we feel that the value for the money was very good.
I will definitely work with them again if we have the chance to come back.
Asante-sana African Big Cats!
Particularly Attentive
We are an Italian family who did 6 days safari with Elias as a guide, the Big Cats Agency is absolutely promoted. They were super efficient and organized, available for any clarifications, we did not have to worry about anything because from the airport onwards they accompanied us everywhere. Truly exceptional touch the guide, Elias, super prepared and very ironic shows you the wonders of the place remaining available for any need.
