Making all your safari hopes come true!
5/5

Second time to Serengeti and Ngorongoro - by far the better trip! The beauty of the places and animals cannot be explained instead it needs to be experienced. They take care of everything including unique and delicious meals like homemade pizza! Our guide Larry was great - fun, knowledgeable and helpful. Got to see the Big 5 and cheetahs!

Amazing Safari Experience
5/5

I booked a 2 day safari from Arusha to Tarangire NP and Ngorogoro Crater. The Safari was amazing and we saw so many of the animals, absolutly no regrets whatsoever.

A great service overall, vehicles were of good quality and the guide (Simba) was very knowledgeable about the region and the animals.

Food was great, lunches and dinner and the "camping" accommodation surpassed expectations with a swimming pool, clean room and comfortable bed.

Worth the price, however a reduction wasn't offered when I didn't need the hotels either side of the tour.

The only other point is that they did not contact me the days before to confirm details. I had to contact them but once contact was made everything was very smooth.

Thanks to Suricata Safaris (especially Rocky) for this wonderful adventure
5/5

As a child/teenager I always dreamed of a safari and what can I say, my great expectations were exceeded.

One thing was the breathtaking nature (whether Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti or Ngorongoro Crater), which was so varied and I have never felt so connected to our origins.

The other thing was how well Suricata Safaris organised everything. ‘Rocky’ is simply the best guide you can wish for. He told us so much about the wildlife, took us to the most beautiful places (it was great everywhere, but the viewpoint over the Ngorongoro Crater and the sunset in the middle of the Serengeti were probably the highlights) and did everything to give us an unforgettable adventure.

Although I am picky when it comes to food, there was something delicious for me every day.

I can only recommend Suricata Safaris to anyone.

Incredible
5/5

This was definitely a life-changing experience. From the first email interaction until the last goodbye everything went so smoothly. It was almost dreamlike. Being a solo traveller, and travelling for the first time ever, this experience could not have gotten any better.
I was met at the airport by a young man named Calvin, who drove me to Arusha to my hotel. I met Mr. T at the hotel, who gave me the rundown of what the events were about to occur.
The next morning, I met the incredible Rocky, who was to be my tour guide for the next five days. From his funny introduction to his great smile, I knew we were going to get along fine.
I got in the Jeep and met my fellow travellers who quickly went from strangers to family, despite all of our differences.
It was obvious right from the start how much Rocky loves his job, with his wealth of information, driving capabilities and patience, as he tolerated my many many questions. He found the hardest animals to find giving us the best view for pictures. He found ways to communicate with others in ourJeep that didn’t speak English and always made everyone feel comfortable. He greeted us every morning with a smile and ended each day with a smile, never showing any signs of annoyance, fatigue, or frustrations. Truly an expert in his field of work.
The accommodations were beautiful and the food, especially our lunches made by Pius, were delicious.
I can’t thank Suricata Safaris enough for the experience. 10/10 recommendation!

World Class Safari company, second to none!!!
5/5

This was the most AMAZING experience with the BEST guide in all of Tanzania (Damien). Suricata Safari is nothing less than world class and you know you’re in good hands right away. From their customer service, briefers, handlers, guides, and those who work at the Suricata Boma Lodge which is also a lux resort with amazing views of Lake Manyara. You feel secure and well taken care of from the jump. We did the mid range 4 day safari staying at the Suricate Boma Lodge, Tanzania Bush Camp, and Ang’ata Lodge and each one was unique, clean, excellent service and beautiful. The staff in each lodge was spectacular! We will be bringing family with us on our return safari trip and we will definitely be going through Suricata again and requesting Damien as our Chief of Safari!! Asante Sana, Damien and Suricata team!!! 🙏🏼🇹🇿♥️

Exceptional
5/5

I traveled to Tanzania with my husband for our honeymoon. We had the most AMAZING experience we could’ve imagined. The accommodations and the food each meal was perfect. Each place we were greeted with kindness and smiles. Ray at the Tanzania Bush Camp was above and beyond! She even sang to us during dinner. We were afraid to come in the rainy season for fear we wouldn’t see any animals but we saw EVERYTHING. Even baby cheetahs and the elusive Black rhino. Our driver, Damien, was beyond expectations. He was an extremely skilled driver and very knowledgeable to every animal! The other drivers from other safaris seemed to rely on him to find the best sights. He knew the patterns of every animal and where we had a good chance of finding them. We joked that he was famous because every driver and every person we passed knew him. He strategically maneuvered through rough terrains and we always felt extremely safe. When we come back we are 100% requesting him!! Our experience was definitely elevated specifically because of Damien. You cannot go wrong with Suricata Safaris. The attention to detail to each guest is amazing. Thank you Suricata Safaris for the best honeymoon!

Amazing
5/5

The Safari with Suricata Safaris was great. Lewis the safari guide was really nice and we saw so many animals. It was really amazing.
Also the food they served was delicious. It was also organic and they served it on plates so there was no waste.
So for me this was a great safari I wouldn’t have missed this.

Outstanding Safari Experience with Shabany & Tito!
5/5

Outstanding Safari Experience with Shabany & Tito!

I recently had the incredible opportunity to go on a safari, and I cannot recommend our guide, Shabany, and our chef, Tito, highly enough!

Shabany is an exceptional guide and driver—knowledgeable, professional, and truly passionate about wildlife. His deep understanding of the animals, their behaviors, and the landscapes made the experience unforgettable. He had an amazing ability to spot animals from a distance, ensuring we saw the best of what the safari had to offer. Beyond his expertise, he was friendly, patient, and always made sure we were comfortable and having a great time. Thanks to him, we had an adventure of a lifetime!

And then there’s Tito, the mastermind behind the meals! I can confidently say that his food was unbelievable—every meal was a delight, exceeding all expectations. Whether it was breakfast, lunch, or dinner, he consistently created mouthwatering dishes that could rival top restaurants. The flavors, presentation, and variety were simply outstanding, making every dining experience a highlight of the trip.

If you’re lucky enough to have Shabany as your guide and Tito as your chef, you are in for an extraordinary safari experience. Thank you both for making this adventure so special!

Best experience ever
5/5

The safari with Suricata was not only worth every penny, but also one of the best experiences of my life. We saw elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, lions, hyenas, cheetahs, hippos, and even rhinos, among many other animals. Our driver, "Elias," was not only an excellent driver who drove us safely through the wilderness, but also a walking encyclopedia. He knew every animal and plant, as well as the customs of the local Masai people.
