Amazing 5 day safari
We did a five day safari with the combination of luxury and comfort hotels. Big Cats Safari helped us really well with our itinary and were very quick with communicating. The safari itself was amazing and did not dissapoint. Our guide Khalid was really good at spotting the animals and made sure we saw everything we wanted. We even saw the big five 5! The hotels (Kitela Lodge and Embalakai) both were amazing and we had the best time. Thank you so much for this unforgatable experience!

Our Dream Honeymoon!
Where do we start?
From booking the 5 Day 4 Night Luxury safari, throughout our trip and beyond, the communication was amazing. Any questions we had, we had a reply super quickly (within 24 hours).
We arrived at Kilimanjaro Airport and our transfer was ready and waiting. Everyone who we met along the way was super friendly and kind.
Our operations Manager (Emanuel) came and spoke to us the evening before our safari, giving us an in detail itinerary and answered any questions we had. This made us super excited (more than we already were!)
The next 5 days were nothing but EXTRAORDINARY. The safari exceeded all of our expectations. Especially having Ernie as our guide everyday.
The animals that we encountered and how close we managed to get to them just made it that even more special.
We have learnt a lot about the animals at each national park due to the 20+ years Ernie has been doing safaris.
The food throughout our trip was beautiful. I am a fussy eater but there was nothing that I didn’t like!
And not to mention the accommodation - breathtaking. Please look through my photos and see for yourself!
If you are considering African Big Cats Safari then our experience is enough to encourage you to go with them! They are incredible.
Thank you Ernie and the team - you made our honeymoon the best we could ever imagined!

Seriousness and discovery.
We went on a 5 day safari in Tanzania with African Big Cats Safaris company. It was an unforgettable experience. The company immediately proved to be serious, precise and helpful. Our guide Eddy allowed us to discover the wonders of the Safari. He was very helpful, serious, well organized and never intrusive. All the lodges we stayed in were wonderful, clean and welcoming. It was an experience that I recommend to everyone.

Amazing experience
We spent 4 beautiful days on a luxury safari trip. Our guide/driver Nathan made everything to our satisfaction. He was very kind, knowledgeable and gave us lots of information. Kids were amazed to see all the animals! Our accomodation in Karatu and Serengeti was excellent. We are glad that we have chosen African Big Cats Safari. All communication from the beginning went smoothly. I highly recommend this company.

Great service, friendly and couldn't do more for you
We were a party of nine and Big Cats Safari and their two very knowlegeable drivers gave us four amazing days in two vehicles.
The accommodation was all excellent (including an amazing night camping in the Serengeti!). When a couple of people in our party forgot their luggage the team went out of their way to help get it back.
We saw all of the animals we wanted to see and experienced a magical time. I would recommend them to anyone.

Simple Amazing
African Big Cats Safaris really took good care of my traveling needs. The lodges and resorts were comfortable, spacious and clean. The tent inside the Serengeti was amazing and not what I expected. The vacation was more than I could dream of and well worth the money. I will be booking again with the company!

awesome experience
We spent 9 days in northern Tanzania with big cat safaris. The organisation was perfect. But the most important to make the trip extraordinary was our guide. Moses is a guide for more than 20 years and he still loves his job. He is fascinated by all animals and was able to explain us a lot of details about wildlife and Tanzanian lifestyle. He was polite and very understandingly with our kids (7/9y). His knowledge about birds (and mammals and plants etc.) was really impressive.

A good guide definitely made your safari wonderful
Lovoi is the best guide with binocular vision. We are so lucky to have him. We saw all the big five and three crossings. Really enjoy the safari.
However, some of the accommodations could be improved.

Best Safari Experience ever
Our experience was extremely positive.
We found Big Cats online and we trust them from the beginning thanks to their extreme availability and kindness.
The guys are always nice and replies are very quick and they can support you with any custom request you might need.
Our guide, Ernest, was a plus. He has 23 years experience and he perfectly knows animals (especially Big Five) and their habits.
We will surely suggest Big Cats to our friends!

Perfect Trip
We were with African Big Cats as organizers at the end of July / beginning of August 2023, first on Kili (Lemosho- route), then on safari for 7 days.
Everything went wonderfully!
We researched in advance on the internet and had contact with various organizers. There are definitely other good ones (we could only "test" one
