Lourens is efficient and precise in organising. His knowledge of the bush and wildlife is astounding. Furthermore, he has an excellent sense of humour which makes it fun everyday.

Indescribably the most amazing experience of Africa with the utmost professional tour guide
From the very first time we met with Lourens in the comfort of our own home we knew we were in for the experience of a lifetime. He was the utmost professional showing his love of Africa in every photo and sentence. He was always available for any information and we even had a group meet and greet before leaving Perth. Every place we visited was magical, the Big5 found easily, the drivers so friendly and Lourens always guiding us brilliantly. It was the very best experience of our life and I don't think we will match it again ... until we go on another African Safari with Lourens of African Big 5 Safaris.

An amazing photographic adventure of a lifetime.
A trip to Kenya and Botswana with the Big 5 Safari was the highlight of 2015.
In fact it was a highlight of our many travels over the years, and a photographic journey which both I and my husband thoroughly enjoyed.
The attention and care shown to us during this time was exceptional with all our needs met by Lourens Lee, who tried his hardest and succeeded in showing us the Masai Mara and its animals in all their glory with some great photoshoot opportunities.
A memorable experience which I can highly recommend to one and all, to join the “Big 5 Safari” for the adventure of a lifetime.
Thank you Lourens for a wonderful photographic adventure.

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,
