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.

One of the best experiences of my life.....lourens is an excellent guy to book your drives.
One of the best experiences of my life,
Thanks to Lourens, Armand(our guide) for delivering wht was said and more...
It's such a sense of excitement and suspense everytime we go for our drives and it becomes more exciting when your guide shares the same excitement and makes u feel heard. We sighted lions, hippos, rhinos, giraffe , zebras , cheetah , baboons hyenas, cape buffalos, imphalas, eagles, kudus but most importantly our sighting of a leopard drinking water from the same pond as a hyena was so exciting, can't express,,
Overall it was very fulfilling trip.
Lourens not only makes ur stay and drives pleasant but he also helped me get my lost bag all the way from Kruger park to suncity....
Thanks lourens s and Armand....
