very engaged and experiecned agency, from the Backoffice to the driver, felt been part of the family
We decided for this agency from a pool of hundreds of agencies in the first place due to the best price they offered.
In the second place we were absolutely convinced of the agency due to the great and fast communication with the office. First they sent us an offer with all typical places you visit at the safari in Tansania. But we wanted some changes in the itinerary and they adapted them directly.
With Ernest we had a great and very experienced driver, who fulfilled all our wishes and had to every time the right idea and timing. We felt to every time well cared.
A big plus was the safari briefing to the begin of the safari in the first lodge conducted by the superior from the office. All accommodation as well as the food were super.
I can 100% recommend the accommodation.

Great professionist and wonderful organization
Glad we chose this operator. On a Safari in Africa, what matters is organization and reliability, as well as, of course, looking for animals. African big cats assisted us with professionalism right from the first email contacts. Once in Arusha everything was perfectly organized for the following days: Tarangire, Serengeti (2 days), Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara. Even the hotels selected for our overnight stays turned out to be a wonderful surprise. A special mention for the guide, who in a safari is the real balance and can make the holiday unforgettable or terrifying. With Lovoi, our guide, we felt at home, he is very nice and helpful, he drives carefully and has identified many animals (we were lucky and we completed the big five). Special thanks to him, Justice and Emanuel! Super recommended experience!

Breathtaking experience & excellent service
Our trip was breathtaking! We (4 friends) had been on a private 5-day safari which was unbelievably interesting and beautiful! I would definitely recommend to book with African Big Cats Safaris. Thank you especially to our guide & driver Venance who showed us the beauty of Tanzania! He was always on time, showed us special places and we had much fun and a good time together

Fun, Professional, Great Service
We loved our 7-day safari with African Big Cats Safaris and Khaled (guide). ABCS did a great job of planning a wonderful itinerary. Accommodations and service was good everywhere – Ngorngoro Tortilis Camp was especially wonderful. We enjoyed the flexibility of starting and ending the days as desired. Felt like all of our questions were answered on safari. The communication before (and after) was excellent. Special thanks to Justice Justine, who we corresponded with leading up the trip, and Emanuel for crafting a wonderful experience. Thanks to this team for also reuniting us with our luggage, which the airline had lost for several days!

Excellent tailor-made service provider
African Big Cats provided our family with an excellent tailor-made service. They responded immediately to our request for information and proposed a good fare compared to other companies for a top luxurious service. With their expert support we spent 10 dream days between safari and Zanzibar. We strongly recommend them if you want to live a dream in Tanzania!

Amazing 4 day safari with African Big Cats
I had checked out a whole lot of different options for safaris (and there are many), but we decided to go for this one due to 1. We preferred a Tanzanian company; 2. Reviews were consistently 5star; 3. Price range was considerably lower than many other options; 4. The website is really good and communication with the company was super swift and efficient.
In fact, it seemed so perfect I started to think it might be a scam, but I can now tell you it is not! Our experience was perfect from beginning to end. We travelled with 2 adults and 2 kids (age 11 and 9) and we all adored it. Our guide Stephen was amazing. Spoke perfect French and English, was extremely knowledgeable about all the fauna and flora, as well as Tanzania more generally. He is a safe driver, respectable of the animals and the other safari makers. And he is an all-round nice guy, was really good with our girls. He really made the extra effort for us to see as many animals close up as possible, and to make sure we were always having a good time and feeling comfortable.
We took the mid-range option and it was great. Quality of accommodation was very good at all times.
I truly recommend!!

AWESOME, WOW These adjectives do not begin to describe the African Big Cats safari we just had.
AWESOME, WOW These adjectives do not begin to describe the African Big Cats safari we just had. We had a nine day safari with seven of the days out in the national park and conservation areas. Our guide/driver, Endeni, was very knowledgeable about the areas, history, and of the animals. We learned a lot from him as we were traveling. The roads are as described – bumpy and dusty. You look forward to a shower every evening after a day of game viewing. Our accommodations ran from lodges to tents and the staffs were very service oriented. One of our objectives was to see the great migration as the animals crossed the Mara River. We were fortunate to see not one, but two crossings. Many are not able to see even one. There was a variety of terrain and animals native to the unique areas we visited. We were very satisfied with our African Big Cats safari and highly recommend them and our guide/driver Endeni.
