The trip of a lifetime!!!
5/5

We had the most incredible time with Suricata safaris!! We did the 4 day budget camping package and it was amazing. Pickup from the airport was smooth and on time. Our accommodation at the hotel the first night was clean and tidy and staff was very friendly. For the safari, our tour guide Damian and our chef Saleem were so awesome!! Damian was extremely knowledgeable and kind, and answered all of our questions. He got word over the radio about a cheetah about 30 mins away and he knew exactly how to get us there, which is impressive because the serengeti is massive! We arrived just in time to see a cheetah and her two week old cubs which was so special and my personal highlight of the trip. We also saw many lions, elephants, a rare serval cat, monkeys, endangered black rhinos, and so so much more. Saleem our chef was very sweet and spoiled us with the most delicious meals every day as well, we kept joking that we were going to take him home with us when we left. We visited the Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater, and tarangire national parks. I was blown away by how stunning and unique each place was, they all have so much to offer. I've been wanting to visit tanzania since I was a young child and this trip exceeded all of my expectations!! We already can't wait to come back, and we'll be requesting Damian and Saleem when we do because they are a dream team! Thank you Suricata safaris for the trip of a lifetime!

Only for people who want a proper, fantastic and safe Safari Experience
5/5

The experience with Suricata for our safari was a success from hello. Everything was arranged by whatsapp and emails without any delay or problem. We were received in the airport, taken to a very nice hotel (organized by them) and another person came to brief us on our trip details.
It was at that time we realized that it would be cold at this time of the year, and that we needed coats. The company organized it and within two hours an old lady arrived with coats that we purchased cheaply – and saved our life 
Next day we were picked up by our guide and driver, Freddy, who was an incredible host and guide. He has vast knowledge of his field, knew the paths, the spots, explained everything in detail – especially to our 9 and 12 year old sons. He was very communicative, professional and polite. We got a LOT of information, not only about the animals, but also about the Masai tribes, life in Tanzania, conservation etc. It was a real pleasure to have him show us around.
The camps we stayed in, were simply magical and out of this world.
The company performed 100%. In addition to this, for the half day we had to spend after the safari in Arusha, they organized a half day city tour and we saw a lot of interesting things in Arusha.
In total, Suricata is a very professional company that delivers what promised with quality and style and I would recommend them without any reservation.

Our guides were truly fantastic! So professional and helpful whenever he could!
5/5

Had a fantastic time! Our guides - Elias and Malita - were phenomenal. They were highly knowledgeable in animals and terrain, and somehow managed to locate all the animals we were hoping to find! We were fed incredibly well by Chef Tito, who cooked some of the best food I’ve had in Africa. Thank you Suricata Safari!

Once in a lifetime safari
5/5

One of the best tours I’ve ever done. Each place we visited was breathtakingly beautiful, and my phone storage is straining from all the photos I took. The company itself was fantastic - our two drivers, Malita and Elias, were very knowledgeable and super friendly, and our chef, Tito, provided some of the best food I’ve had in Tanzania. 100% recommend!

Good experience
5/5

This was my second safari in this trip, after the one in Maasai Mara and I've realized 8 days in total is too long for me. If I had to do it again, I'll probably stick with just Serengeti and Ngorongoro (3 days), maybe Laky Manyara (4 days) instead of 5. Nothing wrong with the parks but it gets repetitive and it's too much time spent in the car. Our guide Rocky and the chef James were great, we had real cooked food (as opposed to o sad lunch boxes) and I liked the enthusiasm with which John promoted his country and collected feedback post-trip. Another plus point for Suricata is that they are a big agency and it's more likely you will actually end up in their cars (not placed in the car of another company). The only thing I did not like was the communication before the tour which wasn't great.

Unforgettable Safari Experience with Suricata
5/5

My experience with Suricata on this 4-night, 5-day safari has been absolutely amazing. Our guide and driver, Philix, was incredible—such a wonderful person who generously shared his deep knowledge of wildlife, the national parks, and Maasai culture. His enthusiasm and expertise made our safari not only educational but also truly enjoyable and fun. Even when there had to be logistical changes due to us traveling in a low season and needing to group with others, Philix managed the process well to minimize waiting time as much as possible.

The accommodations were excellent, especially the two nights we spent at Suricata Boma Lodge, which was a highlight of the trip. The food also exceeded my expectations—we had proper, well-packed lunches every day, complete with a variety of drinks, fresh fruits, and desserts.

Daniel, who coordinated our itinerary, guide, and airport transfers, ensured that everything went smoothly, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free.

This was my first time visiting Africa and my first-ever safari, and I am so grateful to Suricata for making it such a memorable and enjoyable journey. I can’t wait to return for more adventures!

The perfect safari experience
5/5

We had an absolutely amazing time on our safari! Saw so many animals and our guide Rocky was brilliant, really knowledgeable and great at finding the best spots to see all the animals. The accommodation was all great and the staff were very welcoming and went above and beyond to make us feel welocme and add some special touches for our honeymoon. Efficient organisation for transfers and accommodation managing different people on different schedules.

Great experience with Suricata and our guide Gorden
5/5

Our 5 day trip with Suricata was really amazing. Nice food, perfect crew and we saw all the big five. Our chef Pius made us look forward to the next meal every time. The guide Gorden was exactly the guy you wish for when doing a safari. Caring, funny, a lot of knowledge, good driving skills, the passion to really find every animal in the parks. The experience with Suricata was nice anyways but he made it special.
