An unforgettable experience and best Safari Trip ever!
We've decided very spontaneously going to Tanzania and got a few quotes from different companies. Justice from African Big Cats responded very quickly and everything was well organised.
Emanuel, our Guide has welcomed us very friendly at the airport and did take care of us during the whole Safari Trip. He has a great knowledge about the areas in the Parks, the Nature as well as all the animals. We really enjoyed our trip and had a lot of fun. Emanuel really has exceeded our expectations and we will never forget this incredible Trip in Tanzania! We couldn't have asked for a better Guide and can just recommend African Big Cats Safaris!
A trip to refresh my soul and open my eyes.
I was in Tanzania last August and couldn't get it out of my mind. This year of isolation has taken it's toll on everyone--I needed
to return. I wouldn't consider traveling with any other tour company- African Big Cats Safaris is in a class by itself. Justice responded
promptly with an outstanding itinerary taking into account all of my requests. All questions were answered and a quote was provided.
And then Tanzania showed me all of her magnificence. With Elieza as my exceptional guide, the magic unfolded day after day. Over two hundred elephant in Tarangire National Park, a rare leopard sighting with her cub enjoying their prey in a tree, over 800 thousand zebra and
more than 2.5 million wildebeest on the Great Migration in the Serengeti, of course scattered across "the endless plain." Elieza has extensive knowledge of all flora and fauna and a great warmth and sense of humor. He informed all lodges of my vegetarian requests. But the warmth
and graciousness of the Tanzanians was what always remains in my heart. Asante sana , my rafiki!

Amazing safari, great guide and very well organized
I based the selection of the tour on the previous reviews and was not mistaken. From the very beginning the communication was very fluid, they answered all questions promtly and made suggestions on accomadation which resulted great.
As I could see from other quotations safari was reasonably priced. As suggested, we finally decided to stay at Lake Manyara Kilimamoja lodge and it's definitely worth paying a little bit more.
We took a private safari and I must give a special mention to our guide, Lordard. Very attentive and professional and made us feel easy and comfortable. Apart from this, he speaks good Spanish. The safari itself is a great experience, it's difficult to explain how impressive it was.
Thanks a lot for this wordenful experience!

Wonderful adventure
We had a wonderful time on our safari with our wonderful tour guide Emmanuel (recommended). We were able to book the safari without too much hassle and for a reasonable price (compared to other operators). The tour guide managed to show us all the good stuff, wonderful animals and many details about their lives.
We did believe that for a tour of 5 days 4 different areas was a bit much to explore. This was our own choice, but for others I would recommend Ngorongoro Crater for sure, and to a lesser extend also the Serengeti.

Beyond our expectations
My partner and I went on our first safari this year in June. We chose African big cats as we wanted something more private and they were the most helpful from the few companies we contacted by email. Everything went so smoothly from the organization till the end. We had specific requests prior and during the safari and they always accommodated it without any problem and went beyond to make sure to fill our needs.
Justice was our first contact and was absolutely brilliant. Our guide Emmanuel was very friendly, knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable and welcome at all times.
The lodges/camp the company picked for us to stay were always very good from all perspectives
I can say African big cats went above our expectations in terms of customers service and the experience itself. I would confidently recommend them to any of my friends and family.

Lord was the most knowledgeable person I have ever met. He was so fun and knew all of the best spots
Big cats safari is great because it is private and completely planned around your schedule and preferences. We had the absolute best time with our guide, Lord! The animals were right next to our jeep and it was truly the experience of a life time! Justice made planning the trip so easy and we are so grateful for the both of them! We also did a hot air balloon over the Serengeti which was the most beautiful and breathtaking experience ever! Thank you so much big cat safari for a trip I will never forget! I will recommend this company to everyone!

Excellent planning and exectution for our first safari
This was our first safari and from the beginning Big Cats Safaris was excellent. When deciding which operator to use, Justice was quick to respond and answer all our questions and very accommodating in designing a custom 10 day package to meet our desires. We decided to go with Big Cats Safaris because of their professionalism, competitive price and their size. We had some vehicle issues (a flat and dead battery), which is to be expected once you do a day drive on the safari roads! But the team was quick to solve them without us losing any time on our safari. We could of got another jeep but Emanuel our guide was quick to fix the issues in the evenings. The accommodations suggested were comfortable and the food was very good. Emanuel was fantastic! He was extremely friendly, personable and knowledgeable and I would highly recommend him and Big Cats Safaris.
During the safari, we saw the big5 including the rare black rhino! We had a great experience seeing more animals than we expected and closer than I had thought was possible. Hoping we get the opportunity to return in the future and if so we will go with Big Cats Safaris.
