Kenya Tanzania Chobe Botswana 2014 Okavango Delta Chobe Namibia 2015. Unforgettable experience
Everything about these tours were fantastic, Louren's and driver knowledge, wildlife sightings and photo opportunities, small group and wonderful accommodation, meals, service, lots of laughs, all you could ask for in an African safari and more. I highly recommend Lourens and looking forward to more Safaris with him.

My wife wanted to go, I ended up loving it!
In 2014 we went to Kenya with African Big 5 Safaris and Lourens as our guide. Louren's communication and advice before the trip was personal and top notch. The actual trip was great. Good accommodation and food. Plenty of game drives each day. Great driver (Danson) with excellent knowledge of birds and animals.
We went again with Big 5 Safaris in 2015 but to Botswana where we saw a great variety of birds the first four days as we were on the Chobe river on a houseboat. I was lucky to be able to go fishing for Tiger fish and caught a good sized one. Later we moved to a lodge and commenced game drives. Also had a wonderful and memorable helicopter flight over the stunning Victoria falls which I highly recommend.

Awesome guide, amicable, goes out of his way to assist, even others, not in his group
Better than the best, takes you to the game parks and reserves from The Masai Mara to South Africa and in between,

Simply put had a terrific time & wonderful experience, which I would do all again with African Big 5
Couldn't have been in better hands & very well looked after, ticked all the boxes.
Thank you for a brilliant holiday & photographic experience that will stay with me forever.

Dream Come True
My 78 year old Mum and I went on a 'once in a lifetime' safari to Kenya using African Big 5 Safaris and it was a dream come true. Our guide, accommodation, safaris, meals, group size and communications were brilliant. Highly recommend this business!

Lifetime memories with Africa Big 5 Safaris
My most recent Safari was to Botswana with African Big 5 Safaris, and I already knew that I was in for a treat as it was my 3rd time in 3 years on safari with Lourens the owner operator of African Big 5 Safaris.
Nothing is too much trouble for Lourens, you will be looked after like royalty...
Satisfaction all the way from flights, accommodation and food, and of course mostly value for money.
There is nothing in this world like waking in the morning just to think of the fantastic day that lies ahead for you, every day and almost every minute holds something special that just gets better and better with each sighting.
If you have ever thought of a safari, I can honestly recommend African Big 5 Safaris for creating memories that will last a lifetime, and just like me you will be yearning for that safari feeling again.

Absolutely amazing way to capture the essence of Africa. 3 safaris completed n the fourth is booked.
Everything we expected, and so much more. Lourens is a wonderful guide and a great bloke. Best trips we've ever taken.

Great Experiences!
My wife & I have been on four Safaris with Lourens at African Big 5 Safaris. When we first met Lourens he visited us to outline exactly what we could expect, the level of accommodation we would get & approx what we would see. Although with wild animals nothing is guaranteed, we have seen the Big 5 on every trip. I have to say we were not disappointed, the trips we have made with African Big 5 Safaris have met & exceeded all our expectations. On each of our trips we have managed to experience something different. In Kenya, a Hot Air Balloon ride. Our first trip to Kruger the accommodation was spectacular! In Botswana, after 4 days on a house boat, we did a helicopter flight over the magnificent Victoria Falls. On our most recent trip to Kruger we saw 9 leopards in 11 days!
I would thoroughly recommend this company to anyone who is considering a Safari!

Exceptional
I have now undertaken two photo safaris with African Big 5 Safaris, one to Boswana and Keneya in 2015 and this year to Kruger National Park. Both have exceeded my expectations the food and accomodation were great.
Lourens the tour leader greatly contributed to the trip with his knowledge of both photography and the animals and birds. Nothing was two much trouble for him and on both tours the driver was exceptional having a vast knowledge of the African bush and its wildlife.
I would recommend African big 5 Safriis to anyone thinking of undertaking a safari once you have been once you will be hooked for life and you will want to go back again and again. I cam currently saving for a further trip next year.

Lourens and his knowledge as a photographer was the perfect man to visit Kenya, Brilliant companion
Every thing was planned perfectly food & accommodation included, the attention to detail was impressive and rarely do you meet anyone so invested in making someone's experience so memorable and enjoyable.
