Wonderful experience with Big Time Safaris in Kenya and Tanzania
Our experience with Big Time Safaris was simply extraordinary! We took a 9 day safari in Kenya and Tanzania and also a daytrip to Amboseli and couldn't be happier we chose them! We were well taken care of since the moment we arrived in Nairobi until the moment we left.
Everything went smoothly and according to the itinerary. The guides were punctual, kind, very knowledgeable and they made it their priority that we saw as many animals as possible; always trying to get us close to them and always looking for the best angles for pictures. John , our guide in Tanzania, was exceptionally good. He was amazing tracing the animals -thanks to him we saw the big 5- but he was also fun to talk to. We learned so much about the Masai and the wildlife in general thanks to him.
The accommodations and the food provided were both good and just as promised. Special food requests are accommodated without a problem.
If you have the opportunity to visit a Masai village, do not skip it. It's really a memorable experience. Just make sure you bring some goodies for the kids (they love candies and coloring books for example) and a little money so you can buy some of the beautiful things the Masai women make and sell over there.
Special thanks to the lovely Martha, for impeccably preparing and coordinating our whole safari to the smallest detail, and for kindly answering all of my questions and attending every request I had. Since the first time I e-mailed her she stayed in touch and within reach, even while we were on the safari, which we really appreciated.
Thanks to Geoffrey as well, who drove us within Nairobi and was always so friendly and kind to us.
I can't praise the Big Time Safaris team enough for the once in a lifetime experience they gave us. It was simply incredible!

A lifetime experience in Kenya & Tanzania with Big Time Safaris
We had visited Kenya & Tanzania from 22nd May 2017 to 1st June 2017. We booked the trip from Kolkata, India with Big Time Safaris and initially I was a little unsure about the arrangements as we didn't have any prior experience with them. But we were told by some of our friends that they were very good and I found how true it was when I reached Nairobi and got picked up from Airport. Since then they took the complete responsibility of us and we didn't have to think about anything else other than enjoying the safaris. Martha and her team took excellent care of us, the camps and lodges were excellent. Our guide and driver and Kenya, Patrick was very passionate about the wildlife and has a huge knowledge on flora and fauna of East Africa. Not only we thoroughly enjoyed the trip but also we learnt a lot about Africa, it's wildlife, the people and their culture. Our guide and driver in Tanzania was a young lad called Ziggy, he also has good knowledge about all the things we wanted to know and was very helpful.
I would definitely recommend Big Time Safaris to all my friends who want to visit East Africa, a big big thumbs up to Martha and her team!

Lifetime Experience .... Spectacular & Amazing
Tremendous team-effort , highly professional attitude & coordination , mind-blowing guides & their game-drives , neat arrangements even in very adverse situations , superb hospitality from each & every employee..... BigTimeSafari made us feel at home from the very moment we stepped in Africa. Thank you BTS .... Thank you for everything you did to us. Our trip wouldn't be so pleasant & successful without you :D
The Best!
From the minute we come out of the airport until we were dropped off, Big Time Saris took excellent care of us. I can't say enough good things about their drivers. They were professional yet sensitive and fun. We used their services for several full days. They were very accommodating to all our wacky requests. They never complained or were put out. I felt their prices were fair and they were very honest. Not only were their drivers on time, they were early! I highly recommend using them on your trip to Africa!

Excellent cooperation before booking and during safari (David and Richard were responsible for this) a well trained driver and guide helped us to have a wonderful experience. We were lucky choosing this company and all for affordable princes.
Thanks... a lot !

Wonderfully organized Kenya tour by BigTime Safaris
I arranged my first Kenya(Africa) visit through BigTime Safaris. It was a seamless arrangement. Martha was really helpful from aiding us plan the tour to helping us with documentation. Right from landing at JKIA to leaving was a friendly & comfortable experience.
We thoroughly enjoyed Hell's Gate NP, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara, Balloon Safari over Mara, Nakuru reserve. The safari guides were very knowledgeable and experienced. Spotted the big 5, cheetahs, hippos, and almost saw a chase/kill !!!
Will surely recommend BigTime to everyone...
Cheers!

My husband and myself went in that safari not expecting it to be this extraordinarily organized.
Everyone was on point and everything went well !!!
Very good to a reasonably price
Very good safari to a reasonable price. We got what we payed for. Very good driver.
Good communication on email before safari.
Very good private roundtrip in Nairobi. Picked up in the morning and dropped in airport late. Much value for the money. When returning from safari you should ask Ann for a good price for a daytrip in Nairobi in your own car.

An Amazing trip with Big Time Safaris
Big Time Safaris made our trip easy to organise and a truly amazing experience.
From the first contact with them everything was made so easy. I dealt with Martha in their office and she kept in touch and answered all my questions. As I had never been to Kenya, I had plenty of questions to ask and Martha was really helpful. There was no pressure to buy their package and payment is made at the Nairobi office on the day you head off on the trip of a lifetime. We chose a 5 day Safari to Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru and as it was the first time we had done a safari we chose the luxury option. The Sopa chain of lodges we had on the trip were absolutely fabulous and really enhanced our trip. Our guide from Big Time Safaris was Jackson, I can't praise him enough for everything he did to ensure our safari experience was the best it could be.
If you're ever thinking of doing a safari in Kenya I whole heartedly recommend the team at Big Time Safaris.
We had such a great time and if you're planning to go, then contact this company.
It really was one of the best trips we have ever done and would recommend anyone to book and not just think about it.
