Verified An amazing 4 days in Tanzania This safari was amazing and exceeded my expectations in every way - guide, accommodations, animals seen, beautiful country. Our driver/giode Rick was fantastic. Ask for him if you book with Big Cats! We visited 4 national parks - each one unique and beautiful and full of animals!Verified Stunning times!! Our safari was exceptional (4 nights- 5 days)!! Rick was our guide- he made our time the absolute best and taught us so much about the diversity in the 4 parks and animals! LOVE RICK (Asante sana rafiki)!! We saw almost every animal you could think of and at the end of the day had time to decompress and hang out at the amazing accomodations that were lined up for us while eating some delicious food. Highlight of the trip was staying in the middle of the Serengeti and hearing the baboons at night! Can't wait to come back in the future :)Verified Amazing Experience Incredible experience on our 5 day/4 night Comfort safari with Khalid as our guide. We saw so much!! All of the accommodations were perfectly comfortable, with great food and service. The value of this safari is great- private safari with the same guide/driver, long game drive days, and comfortable accommodation. Our guide went above and beyond to find us the Big 5 with tons of lion sightings and an awesome leopard interaction. We always considered our needs. The company made us feel special on our honeymoon. An adventure yet relaxing way to spend our honeymoon.Verified Amazing experience! We had an absolutely amazing experience during our 6 days safari trip!!!! Everything was great! We are very glad that we chose this company and our guide Gabriel was extremely professional, nice, knowledgeable, experienced and reliable! We learned a lot from him and saw so many animals, took amazing pictures and visited 3 big national patks!! I will upload some of them later. We definitely will come back and use the same company again! Thank you so much!Verified Expérience inoubliable L’expérience que nous avons vécu est inoubliable et surtout avec notre guide Frank, merci beaucoup !! Il faut de la patience pour voir tous les animaux de la savane et surtout avoir des bons yeux!! Merci aussi au manager qui était au petit soins.Verified Highly recommended safari. This was an excellent safari in every way. Our tour guide, Rick, was knowledgeable, attentive, fun, and very good at finding animals for us to see. We saw more animals than I ever imagined possible, including all of the big five and many other species. We visited four national parks on our four day safari and each offered something unique. The accommodations far exceeded my expectations - all of the rooms were comfortable with private showers and toilets. The food was consistently excellent, including the take-along lunches. This was a great experience at a very reasonable price and everyone in our group was completely satisfied. Thanks!Verified Unforgettable honeymoon We have just returned home after the most amazing honeymoon. We did a 7 night luxury safari with African Big Cats and it was everything we dreamed of and more. From initial planning conversations to helping us with airline issues on departure, Emanuel and Naomi were extremely helpful for which we are so grateful! We spent the week with our guide Lovoi and had such an unforgettable time with him. He shared his vast knowledge of the local culture and animals. He knew the best spots to go to and spotted the animals a mile off, and we were often away from the crowds which made our time so special. We saw all the big 5 which was a bonus. Our highlights were seeing a pride of lions (11!), the wildebeest migration and the many scenic lunch spots we stopped at, enjoying lunch together whilst up close to the animals! The safari vehicle was comfortable, plenty of charging points and fridge always full of drinks. Even after long dusty rides, Lovoi would ensure the vehicle was clean the next day which was great and very much appreciated. We could not fault the accommodation we stayed in, all luxurious, clean and lovely food and staff. It was nice to relax by the pools after a full day out. The pack up options were all lovely too. We would go back in a heartbeat and have recommended African Big Cats to our family of friends.Verified Amazing experince on Safari Our guide, Rick with African Big Cat Safari, was simply amazing. He knew exactly were to take us and allowed us plenty of time with each stop to really observe the animals. Highlights in the Serenghetti - a whole pride of lions climbing a large tree followed by their cubs. NgoroNgoro was full of animals. Flamingos galore and of course the coveted Black Rhino. June is definately the right time to go.Verified Best experience of our lives - 5 day 4 nights luxury safari and hot air balloon safari The most amazing and magical experience. I would highly recommend African big cat safari. Emmanuel was extremely helpful with the whole planning process from to start to finish. I planned this trip for my partners 40th birthday. We did the 5 days 4 night luxury safari and visited 4 national parks Manyara, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Tarangire. Our safari guide Venance was the most kindest and welcoming person who made our experience truly memorable. He went above and beyond to ensure we got the best out of our trip. We learnt so many facts from Venance about the wildlife, culture and different plants life. Venance had such a sharp eye for spotting the wildlife, from spotting cheetahs and getting up close to finding sleeping lions hiding within the rocks. It was truly an enriching experience. The amount of wildlife we saw was truly mind blowing. We saw cheetahs, lions, hippos, rhinos, giraffes, zebras, elephants, hyenas, flamingos, baboons, crocodiles, antelopes, gazelles, buffalo’s, wildebeest, warthogs and so many different types of monkeys and birds. All the accommodations were top notch and truly luxury. The pools were open till late so after a busy day on safari we still had time for a swim. The food at each accommodation was also amazing. The safari vehicle was always clean and well maintained. The safari vehicle also had charging ports so we never had to worry about running out of charge on any camera equipment. I would also highly recommend also adding on the hot air balloon safari onto your trip.I truly couldn’t recommend this company enough and urge everyone to pick this company for your safari. Writing this review just highlights how much I can’t wait to return one day. It was truly a magical and tailored experience.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.

It was very important to us to work with a tour company with its roots in Tanzania. It was clear that they genuinely cared about creating a memorable and enjoyable trip for us. We felt safe, supported, and well taken care of throughout our stay. A special recognition of our driver, Monzi, who shared so much valuable knowledge about the history, culture, and wildlife of the area. He was always in the right place at the right time for us to view all that we hoped to see on a journey like this. It was an adventure that we will never forget.

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!
