I recommend Martha Mutanu
5/5

I am south korea born, American educated student who travelled in Kenya and Tanzania a few years back. Martha Mutanu was amazing in every aspects of my experience with her. She did everything awesome! She is super kind, very informative, friendly, loving, and always smiling. I just loved having her as my guide for Safaris. Anyone who is booking a tour, I highly recommend her.

A unique experience made possible by Big Time Safaris team
5/5

I selected Big Times Safaris company to organise a 15 day family trip to Kenya based on research and reviews over the internet. The whole experience turned out to be exceptional by all standards thanks to the professional service provided by BTS team members. My wife and 3 teenage daughters enjoyed very much the Safari part in the Massai Mara, Nikuru lake and Ambosselli parks. We saw plenty of animals: gnus, buffalos, several species of gazelles, zebras, lions, hyenas, guepards, elephants, birds etc... We were very lucky to have witnessed a massive river crossing by the gnus.
The camps and mini bus we used during the travel were very clean and the driver/guide was not only a safe driver but also very knowledgeable and courteous guide.
We also spent few days in Mombassa area which gave us the opportunity to rest and enjoy the Indian ocean and a large variety of delicious food at the Reef beach hotel. We also discovered how beautiful the corals around the Wassini island were.
Overall the whole experience was very good and we will recommend it strongly to our friends.

10-day Safari in Kenya & Tanzania - Fantastic Experience!
5/5

We recently went on a 10-day safari through Kenya and Tanzania with Big Time Safaris Ltd. The process from start to finish was fantastic. In the early planning process they helped us cater the tour to cover exactly where we wanted to go and package it to our budget and time constraint. The staff (especially Martha) was quick to respond to us and helpful in all communication. When we arrived, they were so friendly and made sure we were very comfortable throughout our stay. Our tour guide Wanjau was AMAZING! He was so knowledgeable and really made our trip a once in a lifetime experience. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for the best safari company.

Well organized, beautiful experience and they do what they promise!!!
5/5

We had a great time. Communication by mail and almost immediate response. Everything was possible, we made changes, and changes again.... And at the end, everything was 100% organized.
Correct driver, and the cook made nice meals. Accomodation as promised. The safari itself was superb, we saw the Big Five within 3 hours. Really enjoyed the tour with Big Time Safari.
Martha and John, and everybody else who made this such a great experience: THANKS!!!!

value for money
5/5

My contact David is very helpful. I had taken the three day trip to masai mara. It was a wonderful experience and a must do for all wildlife enthusiasts. Had also visited the giraffe center and crocodile park in nairobi. Had recommended big time to many friends and everyone was all praises. Hoping to have more experiences.

Great Budget Safari
5/5

Everything was great, safe, and affordable (for budget safari). The guide was very helpful, Martha is too patient and answered all the questions and the concerns. The people tried to do their best to make my trip to Kenya a great one. I can say, I spent less money in Kenya than what I will spend in my country for the same period of time. Masai Mara was awesome, Hell's gate was too nice, I was very happy and the other tourist from all over the world had the same feeling.

All you have to take care about is the hotels, sometimes they try to deceive me to take more money (for ex. fees on Wi Fi !!!) but this happens anywhere in the world that's why it is ok for me.

If I come back, I will choose big time safari. I will recommend it to my friends too.

Thanks.

All was perfect!
5/5

I had safari in Kenya, Masai Mara with Big Time Safaris in the November 2014. It was just perfect!
I brought home memories for the rest of my life, great pictures and new plans to go again!
Big Time Safaris did their job in a perfect way, all was safe and smooth. I was comunicating a lot before arriving to Kenya with Martha, she was always friendly and ready to give advice and answer one of questions, that i had really a lot, cause was travelling to Kenya alone. It was all safe there. They met me from the airport when i arrived to Kenya at 3 in the night, took me to the hotel and than picked me up in the morning to go to safari.
We had very nice and professional driver during safari-Stanley. He knew all about animals and was trying to do his best to show us the wild life of african savana, so we could also make good pictures. Special thanks to Stanley, my 3 days at Masai Mara were really one of the best days of my life!
The camp itself was good, staff there polite and friendly. Food was also good, especially dinners. Tents were big enough, clean and had all i needed inside. I was alone and had one tent for me only. Electricity is during the morning and evening only. If i am not misstaken 5-7 and 20-22. Or smth like this. When we were there was no wifi. But you dont really need it there, you can just enjoy the nature and that few days you have there.
Big Time Safaris were helping me till the day i left Kenya. After safari i was flying to Mombasa, they took me to airport and after Mombasa picked me up from airport to také me to the hotel, where i slept before flying home.
Now i am planning new safari in Kenya and Tanzania, for one week. And of course i will book it with Big Time Safaris. Also i m giving them good feedback and advise it to ppl who are thinking of visiting Africa for safari.
Thanks again guys and hope to see you soon again!
