Experience of a Lifetime!!!!
I had a wonderful experience with Big Time Holidays. Milambo was always quick to email me back and answer all my questions. I joined a group 5 day Masaai Mara safari and it was the experience of a lifetime. I felt very safe as a solo female traveler from the U.S. and appreciated how well organized and fun the safari was. It was also amazing value for the money. The tented camp we stayed in was clean, the staff was great and the food was good. Our game drives were breathtaking and we got to see cheetah, elephants, lions, the great migration, hippos, hyena, buffalo, leopard and so much more. I highly recommend this company to anyone who wants to travel to Africa but is on the fence for safety or budget reasons. I had a wonderful experience! Thank you so much!

Once in a Lifetime Experience
This safari company was awesome! I booked a 5 day Masaai Mara budget safari as a solo traveler joining a group safari. Milambo's communication was excellent. He would quickly respond to emails I had with questions and had the safari well coordinated . I felt very safe as a solo female traveler from America and the safari was fun and well organized. We stayed at a budget tented camp which was very clean with good food. I got to see cheetah, lions, leopard, elephants, buffalo, hippo, hyena, vulture, the great migration and so much more. I highly recommend this to anyone who has wanted to visit Africa but is on the fence about it for safety or budget concerns. Thanks again for the experience of a lifetime!!! I will visit Kenya again someday!

Great Experience - 7 days Kenya Safari
We had a fantastic tour in Kenya organized and guided by Big Time Hollidays. Everything was according to what we had agreed upon by mail and we can say that the whole tour was according to our expectations. The communication with Allan was flawless and in line with previous experiences from some friends who had referenced Big Time Hollidays to us. We paid in advance part of the total cost and remaining balance upon arrival to Nairobi and everything went fine with no surprises. Allan joined us during most of the tour where George was the main guide (read real guide not only a driver). All in all we had a safe and sound experience, we saw the Big 5 and had 7 memorable days with the fantastic landscapes from Mara and Amboseli in the background. It was a pleasure to deal with Big Time Hollidays and all the personal contact established with Allan. Strongly recommended!

Memorable safari thanks to Big Time Holidays Ltd
Me and my husband booked 4-days Serengeti/Ngorongoro safari with Big Time Holidays in August 2015. Definitelly we would recommend this company to anyone who's looking for once-in a lifetime experience! Firstly I must say that Milabo Allan was extremly patient and was answering all of our questions (and, to be honest, we had lots of them!). Thanks to him we were fully informed about our safari, and in fact everything went as planned. Even though at the time of our arrival to Arusha he was busy in his office in Nairobi, he arranged everything for us so that we didn't have to worry about a single thing. Every time we wanted to ask something, he replied immediately and we were in touch all the time. Actually I'm pretty sure that he would answer his mobile even if we called him during the night:) Safari itself was perfect and surely we'll keep the memories for the rest of our lives. We even had an elephant visiting our campsite early in the morning which was pretty exciting and memorable. Another advantage of Big Time Holiday Ltd is the price - I've done an extended research in so many different companies and Big Time Holidays Ltd offered us the best agreement so that we were sure we're not being overcharged. To sum up - it was just great! Milambo is definitelly a person that you can trust and he'll do his best to make your trip an excellent experience. Thank you a lot Milambo, and we hope to cooperate with you next time we come to Africa!

Enjoyed the stunning African safari of the life time.
It was a quick and a sudden decision for a safari tour. I checked with many sites, at last i found Big Time Holidays Ltd to match my needs.
They were quick responsive with reasonable rates.
We explored the Masai Mara game reserves with an expert local safari guide and sighted many wild species. Most amazing incident was tow male Cheetahs hunted a Wilder beast and feasting. We managed to fill our memory cards with the beauty of African landscapes & natural wildlife.
Big thanks to Big Time Holidays and we highly recommend you for best safari adventures.

Trip of a Lifetime!!!
My son and I booked a Safari holiday with Big Time Holidays. It was the best experience of our lives! The company's tour manager, Alan, was very helpful in designing our safari to meet our personal needs and interests. He was always extremely prompt in replying to my emails and kept me well-informed of our itinerary as we tweaked it to meet our needs.
Our safari guide, George Odingo, proved to be outstanding. Besides being friendly and accommodating, he was extremely knowledgeable about the animals, birds and flora that we saw. He made our safari an enjoyable as well as great educational experience .
I would not hesitate to recommend BigTime Holidays to anyone for a once-in-a-lifetime safari experience in Kenya!

It was amazing- we saw lion cubs, giraffes, zebras, baboons & leopards, in a short amount of time.
The communication and service was wonderful. We were able to get in contact easily and received replies quickly about any questions we had. Everyone at Big Time Holidays Ltd was extremely friendly and welcoming. Our guide was also very knowledgeable about all of the wild life we saw which made the experience even better. I definitely recommend going to Samburu with Big Time Holidays Ltd!

Great guide for fair price
We had pleasure to had safari organized with Big Time Holidays in October 2013.
I've expected adventure, good tour guide, friendly staff and good price. I've got all of this. Especially George as our guide did great.
I've been prepared for poor accommodation and services for this price, but we got something on really good level.
Safari in Kenia has been crafted for us, Alan also arranged other company in Tanzania that took as to parks there.
I'd like to recommend Allan's company as Safari operator.
