Verified An unforgettable first safari — professional yet full of joy We went with my cousin on a 5-day safari starting from Arusha, and from the very beginning, we felt safe and truly welcomed by African Big Cats Safaris — especially thanks to our guide, Dominick. Thanks to them, we didn’t just get to see the incredible landscapes and wildlife of Tanzania, but also got a glimpse into the local culture and daily life.The vehicle they provided was always in excellent condition, the accommodations and meals offered great value for money, and communication throughout the trip was clear and transparent. One thing we really appreciated was that the company never tried to upsell us. On the contrary, they seemed genuinely focused on making sure we had a great experience, even offering some complementary services and advising us against certain activities given the season we visited.As for the safari itself, we managed to spot 4 of the famous Big 5 — leopards were a bit shy this time, but we were lucky enough to see some stunning cheetahs instead ;) We took amazing photos and learned a lot about animal behavior and the different species along the way. Dominick, with his 9+ years of experience, had a great eye for spotting wildlife and picking up small details from far away, all while making sure we stayed safe. He also shared plenty of interesting facts about nature and the Maasai traditions, which made the trip even more special.Verified Amazing Experience from Beginning to End! We had a tremendous time on our Safari to Tanzania followed by relaxing beach time in Zanzibar before heading back home. Planning the trip with African Big Cats Safaris was very easy with excellent communication with Naomi. She listened to all of our specific requests and even reached out to our different accommodations to make them aware of any celebrations we may be having. Our Safari guide, Venance, was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, the cultural history, and the plant life. It made our experience so much richer by learning from him. He was kind and respectful throughout the trip. He ensured we saw the big 5 during our safari and paid extra care to allow us time to see our favourite animals. Venance also made wonderful suggestions to add onto our experience, such as visiting a Massai tribal community, and made recommendations on where we could purchase things from local shops. All in all, it was a trip of a lifetime and we would be happy to return and work with African Big Cats Safari's again.Verified Best Safari Experience for first timers! My partner and I (visiting from New Zealand) had the most incredible experience with African Big Cats Safari. From the moment we landed in Tanzania, everything was perfectly organised—smooth, stress-free, and full of unforgettable moments.Our guide, Lovoi, was exceptional. He’s not only an expert on wildlife but also a skilled driver who navigated the rugged terrain of Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater with ease. Thanks to his sharp eyes and deep knowledge, we saw all of the Big Five and so many more animals up close—it was truly surreal.The accommodation was top tier: comfortable, well-located, and made us feel immersed in nature without sacrificing any comfort.

It was one of the best lifetime experience to know and see all the animals in their own wild habitat. Mr. Emanuel, ensured to get all the necessary details of our needs and prepared a safari plan which was exceptionally well-organized, safe and more than exciting safaris. The entire trip from start to finish was beyond our expectations!We explored various landscapes of the Arusha National Park, Tarangire National Park, The Manyara National Park around Lake Manyara, Serengeti National Park, and the Ngorongoro Crater and happened to enjoy the safaris and game drives in these parks spotting various animals. Our wonderful guide Mr. Lovoi, definitely was great in spotting animals be it lionesses perched on trees or game drive to find a leopard which was hard to spot earlier that day. We happened to witness the Great Migration of Wildebeest. The most exciting thing that happened to us in Ngorongoro Crater was when we were the first ones to see the elusive Black Rhino that morning. Other cars rushed to join the excitement, which was electrifying. Many such awesome moments are real fun and memorable.Every stay, food and accommodations were excellent. The entire journey was safe, comfortable, and well-cared throughout our trip in Tanzania. I whole heartedly recommend African Big Cats Safaris for anyone who wants to experience an unforgettable African Safaris! Thank you team.Verified Most memorable vacation! We went on a 12 day Tanzania tour starting end of May. What an amazing experience it turned out to be. We (family of 4 including a 10y and a 14y kids) decided on Tanzania as the destination for our next big vacation. After going through numerous itineraries, tour operator reviews and forum discussions on TripAdvisor we finalized a 12 day photography and migration safari by African Big Cats Safaris(ABCS) . The itinerary was finetuned to our preferences by Mr William Frank and once finalized we prepared for the tour with valuable inputs from Ms Naomi. Mr Immanuel the manager of the company met us on the first day of the tour and explained the itinerary in detail and set the tone for the tour with his passionate description of what to expect on each day of the tour. From then on the wonderful tour was carried forward by our guide Mr Lovoi, a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable man. Who just knew where to find each of the animals. He would explain the characteristics of every bird and animal we came across. There was never a dull moment with him and he kept us fully interested in the safari for 12 days.All the accommodations provided were great in care and comfort.A big thanks to The African Big Cats Safaris and Tanzania for providing this unforgettable experience.I will definitely recommend them to everyoneVerified Best trip ever !

A Journey of a Lifetime with African Big Cats Safaris! Our recent safari adventure with African Big Cats Safaris in Tanzania was nothing short of spectacular! From start to finish, everything was exceptionally well-organized, safe, and tailored to our preferences — a huge thanks to Emanuel Kavishe, the Managing Director, for ensuring every detail was taken care of beyond our expectations. We explored the breathtaking landscapes of Arusha National Park, Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara, Serengeti National Park, and the Ngorongoro Crater. Each park had its own magic, and the memories we made will stay with us forever. A special shoutout to our wonderful guide, Mr. Lovoi, whose sharp eyes and deep knowledge made every game drive thrilling. Spotting our first two lionesses perched gracefully on a tree branch in Tarangire was unforgettable. The Serengeti stunned us with the Great Migration of wildebeest, and we were lucky to witness majestic leopards, cheetahs, lions, hippos, crocodiles, and countless other incredible animals in their natural habitat. Our time in Ngorongoro Crater was capped with a truly exhilarating moment — we were the first vehicle to spot the elusive Black Rhino that morning, and the excitement as other vehicles rushed to join the sighting was electrifying! Beyond the wildlife, the accommodations, food, and hospitality were excellent at every stop. We felt safe, comfortable, and well-cared for throughout the journey. I wholeheartedly recommend African Big Cats Safaris to anyone dreaming of an authentic and unforgettable African safari. They truly deliver an experience that exceeds expectations in every way. Asante sana to Emanuel, Lovoi, and the entire team for making this trip one of the best adventures of our lives!
