Unforgetable experience
The organization and communication with Suricata has been perfect at all times. Our guides Richard and Lewis, Rasta, have been incredible. They are pleasant, attentive, cultured, an incredible experience. The lodges and the food were wonderful, everything was delicious and everything was very comfortable. I recommend Meerkat because I had an incredible experience. I would repeat with them without hesitation!!

Serengeti/Ngorongoro safari
Excellent company! Very knowledgeable guides, went during the rainy season and still saw lots of animals. Daniel gave me a thorough briefing of the safari and Rocky was a wonderful driver and guide. Highly recommend!

Very highly recommend!
This 5 day safari was the adventure of a lifetime and I have absolutely NO complaints. Fred is an amazing person who is an incredibly experienced and knowledgeable guide. Our family of five were also very well fed by our friendly Chef Salim who cooked delicious food for every meal. Fred and Salim taught us much about their beautiful country and nothing was too much trouble for either of them. The entire outfit was very professional from the time we were collected by Daniel at the airport to the time we were dropped back. The opportunity to experience such a variety of wildlife in their natural habitat is something I will never forget and it was made all the more memorable by Suricata Safaris. Asante sana Fred, Salim and Daniel (from the King family

Perfect Safari
I did a lot of research before booking a safari company but suricata safaris still exceeded my expectations. I think it was really great value and we got more than what we paid for.
Pros
- great communication from Hilary before booking and leasing up to the safari. We had to make several changes to start dates, number of people etc and they were very accomodating
- our transfer driver Daniel was really lovely, he made us feel welcome, and gave us a great introduction to our Safari
- our guide, Fred, was just perfect. He was really kind, patient, funny and was able to answer all of our questions. Even the really tricky ones!
- our cook Salim was very passionate and friendly, he was very accomodating, and always asking us what we wanted.
- the facilities at the camping sites were just fine. Nothing flash but that’s what you get when camping. However, the locations were beautiful and each park was so different. All of the logistics are very easy as well because the staff organise everything for you
- nothing is too much, everybody was very kind patient and accomodating.
- November is a bit wet but we really liked it, it was a bit cooler and very green. And the staff still made everything really easy even with the wet weather.
Cons
- I wish I booked more days!

Exquisite
Had an amazing safari experience through Suricata Safaris. Fred was our guide and he was a consummate professional and extremely friendly and accommodating towards myself and my family. He was very knowledgeable with the wildlife, national parks and flora/fauna. We also had Salim as our chef for the trip and he was also another consummate professional and extremely kind human being. He made us beautiful meals and also provided an exotic variety of different meals and dishes that were cooked to perfection. We really lucked out to have both Fred and Salim and I would highly recommend them for anyone wishing to experience a wholesome and informative safari adventure.

Great guide, fantastic chef, friendly staff
We just finished our 4 day safari with Suricata and it was great! We were picked up from JRO and headed straight to the first park. Our guide Elias was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and able to spot the animals even from a great distance. We were given 3 fresh cooked meals per day by Tito and the food was delicious!
We opted for the camping accommodations which are definitely basic but get the job done and made the experience feel even more authentic. Things to note if you’re doing the camping: you absolutely need your own towel, shower shoes and toilet paper (also a flashlight would’ve been helpful but we got by with our phones).
All-in-all we had a great time, saw lots of animals and beautiful views and would recommend Suricata to other travelers.

Unbeatable experience
An incredible and unbeatable experience. Our guide was Lewis and he was fantastic. He took us to the places where we could find more animals, he looked for the best point to photograph them and he explained very interesting things to us about the animals we saw. On the other hand, thank James for the spectacular homemade food he has made. Finally, a visit to the banana fields, highly recommended to immerse yourself in Tanzanian culture in its entirety.

Great company to show Tanzanian culture and to show national parcs and their animals
We really enjoyed the Safari, It was about 5 days doing Central serengeti, ngorongoro conservation area, ngorongoro crater, lake manyara and Tarangire. It was amazing and a great season for doing a safari in Tanzania.
We had all the 5 days same guide/driver and he explained a lot of things about animals, He always was going to the places where are the animals which are rare to see, really recomend to do a safari and to do it with Suricata Safari.
For free one evening we visit the village near of Twinga campsite, It was really nice to understand the culture and costumes of all Tanzania people.
For the food It was allways hand made from a ome person of the company so was tasty and nice to take this common foos in Tanzania.
We allways had what ever we need in terms of food and drink.
Last thing to mention was that we spend all nights at campsites which was really authentic and enjoyable. For Dik Dik and Simba campsites we were on the middle of the nature, so animals are free to go through it.
