Definitely a trip of a lifetime
5/5

I visited Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara and Tarangire in 5 days/4 nights with Big Time Safaris and I saw everything I always wanted to see. My friend and I travelled in April which is apparently “low season” Weather was wonderful, except few rain showers at night, and prices were much lower, I would recommend travelling during low season if you are on budget.
Our tour guide John was very helpful and friendly; he recommended a stop at Maasai village which is an unforgettable experience and a “must see” At first, we signed up for camping safari, because it was in our budget, but upon our arrival to Arusha, our travel agent asked if we wanted to spent few nights at the lodge for a reasonable fee and that turned out to be a great decision and opportunity. The lodges at Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater were amazing and the food was incredible. The views are fascinating. I woke up every morning at the down to see the sun rise. If budget permits, I would recommend staying at least one night in one of the lodges. Our cook was good, our meals were well planned and they made sure that meals were prepared according to our specific diets.
Everyone at the agency was wonderful and very helpful. The tour agent in Arusha gave us good recommendations on where to dine and helped us with plane tickets from Kilimanjaro to Zanzibar. The travel agent in the main office, Martha, stayed in touch with me throughout the trip and made sure that everything was ok. Martha went a mile further and even helped book a hotel in Zanzibar.

Lifetime experience
5/5

The Big Time Safari company made our holidays in Kenya unforgottable. We choosed them for five day safari (Massai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli) and we did not regret it. The organization of the tour was highly professional. we enjoyed every moment. We had a great driver and guide with 11 years experience, he explained us everything, showed us nearly every single animal in park and answered our additional questions. He made everything for our comfort, stoped for additional pictures
The food was really delicious, even if we were a bit sceptic at the beginning. The staff was really nice in the camps, they helped us all the time we needed.
The tents in the camp and also the hotel in Nakuru was fine, the camp in Amboseli was the greatest experience as it was situated in the pure nature far from civilization.
I would like to thanks to the whole team to make our holidays as perfect as you could. I will highly recommend to choose you as a safari operator :)

Very nice tour :)
5/5

I booked this tour by e-mail. The person in charge of tour replied soon, and she was very kind.
Though I asked many questions,she answered correctly and what she wrote was actually correct.
The tour is great. I could see more animals that I had imagined.
I could see BIG5 all!!
The Driver(joseph) was kind and reliable. He found many animals, and told me that, so I didn't miss animals that I wanted see:)
Tent is confortable. There is mosquito net. And food is good as well.
The tour cost is very nice!!
I'm surprised that tour quality is so nice, but cost is cheap.So, I could go to safari though I'm student.
And boat safari was exciting ;) I could see many birds and rhinoceroses.
I joined bigtimesafari tour for 4days.The time passed by in a blink of an eye.
I have never such an great experience ever. I'm so glad.
Especially, special thanks for Martha and Joeph. Because of you, I think I could enjoy and have a safe trip.
Before going to kenya I was worry a little bit, but I was wrong. There is big nature.I relaxed too ;)
The nairobi city was not safety maybe, but this company is very safety and kind!
I want to join another tour of bigtimesafari someday. Thanks.

Right place to get best safari deals to explore Kenya and East African countries
5/5

It was an amazing experience of the safari i took in Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. I must say Big Times Safaris did their best to get me a good deal. Starting from the staffs and the guide absolutely tailor made as i expected. Pretty nice guest house and food near to Masai game reserve and loving Masai people. Am sure of being there again sooner or later. Many thanks to Mr. Ben and as well as Martha kind enough to help me planning my trip to Zanzibar and Tanzania. Hope to see you guys .......next time...!!!

Great 7 days safari
4/5

My 7 days safari to Amboseli, Lake Naivasha/Hell's Gate, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara was great. I'm satisfied with the service, accommodations (camps and budget hotels), guide/driver: everything was well organized and I will definitely recommend Big Time Safaris to my friends.
A big thank to Martha and Stano!!!
