Best safari trip
We did a 5 day group safari tour and it was amazing. From the start to finish they made sure that we are taken care of - pick up to drop off they are on top of it. Communication was fast as well, Hillary replied max like 3 hrs. During the trip I think they also made sure that the people in the group as it was shared are compatible. The group we are in are really nice, glad to be making new friends with them. Our guide/driver Rocky was so knowledgeable with the different animals, he is a good spotter and also made sure that we are on the correct place that we can see the animals properly and pf course take pictures. He made sure that everyone was okay and shared his knowledge with every animals we saw up to the birds and insects. He also explained everything how animals behaved the way there are, their life expectancy and the gestation period. He listened to our requests and was such a good company during the whole trip. 5 days seems so long but it went by so fast. We did the mid range and sleeping in the tented lodge was a great experience you can hear the animals pass by during the night. The food was also good, bringing the plates and utensils and not using paper boxes was a nice touch. Everything in the trip was amazing and we cant wait to go back and experience the safari in a different season

One of the best experiences of my life
We booked a group safari and had one of the best experiences of our life. We chose a mid range safari.
I started to communicate with Suricata months before the safari and they always replied very quickly, always in a friendly way. When we arrived in Tanzania, a driver was already waiting to bring us to the hotel where we stayed before and after the safari. The guide/driver Rocky was amazing, made our trip even more special, being always happy to share his knowledge and answering any questions that the group had, always happy and engaging. Looking for the best places to spot the animals and always explaining what we saw. We can see that he loves what he does and cares about the nature.
The accommodations during the trip were of a high standard and with helpful staff.
We visited 4 parks and spotted many different animals from antílopes to a lioness attack.
All aspects of the trip were well organised and we didn’t had to worry about anything, only enjoy our safari.
After the safari we got a debrief meeting, which is something that I did not expect.
I can say that I loved every minute of it, thank you to all the team for providing a great service and specially to Rocky for making the safari even more special.

Excellent tour, loved it
Perfectly organised and very friendly. They helped us with everything we wanted to have. The guides are very informative, know all the spots where to find animals. Meals were delicious and more than sufficient.
They promptly answered on every mail and question. It was definitely worth doing it.

Great experience with comfortable vehicle, nice lodge arrangements and professional staffs.
It was such a great advanture!
This is my first time travel to Africa. Before safari, I was slightly nervous about the trip. However, I am very lucky to find out and choose Suricata Safaris, since they perfectly meet my expectations and their staffs are very kind, knowledgeable and professional. They reply to my emails very fast which is also a huge bonus!
The Safari car is very comfortable. I didn't feel any travel sickness eventhough some roads are really bad. Our driver is Fredrick, who is super professional in driving at the nature roads in the Nation Parks. He is also very talented at finding animals, can answer well with our questions and helpful in all ways.
During game drives, we saw so many various species, e.g. lions, elephants, zebras, giraffes, monkeys, etc. We also had chance to closely view the migration of zebras, which is a truly impressive experience.
The picnic lunches are very delicious, thanks our chef behind the trip! There is always enough food for everyone, and a small cold soda with bananas is my favorite!
I selected lodge option for accommodation, which are very comfortable and have nice locations. I have chance to see beautiful sun rise, and sleeping with the sound from animals nearby is an unforgettable experience!
Excellent and affordable safari
The safari was excellent! I saw much more than i anticipated and the guides were very knowledgeable. Suricata was very flexible with pickup and drop off at the airport as well!

Amazing experience
The whole experience was amazing. It was my second safari with Suricata and I loved it even more. We had an amazing guide James, who made sure we see as many animals as possible. He has an amazing sense of humour so we always had a laugh.
Our cook Salim is also amazing, the food was very delicious and a lot of it.
All staff are very nice and polite. I was lucky to see the Kilimanjaro mount with the sunrise. Mr T was very kind and stopped on the way so I can take some good pictures.
I miss everyone already and I definitely will be back.
I highly recommend Suricata Safaris.

What an amazing experience!! Perfect!!
I definitely will repeat a safari with Suricata safaris. From beginning to the end was perfect. They were punctual picking us up at the airport and they brought us to the hotel. We followed instructions for next days going to our safari in Serengeti/Ngorongoro.
Driver James was amazing good. Lots of experience, we saw the big 5, very efficient and always with a smile. The meals served were really good. It was always plenty of food and it was difficult to finish it! Super tasty!
The camping areas were good and super well located. For picky people, bathrooms are improbable.
They were all super professional and kind. I will see you again “Suricata Safaris”! Excellent Value for money !!

Very nice and fruendly staff
We have been in a 2 days safari tour in Ngorongoro and Tarangire. The company give you full service from the airport pickup to accomodation, food and the tours.
We had a very friendly english speaker driver which was also our guide during the tours. They comunicate with other drivers in the park to locate the animals and drive you right to the spot to see them
Every day they bring cooked lunch and sift drinks, which by the way was delicious
The food at the lodge was really nice, cooked on the spot by the local chef.
Overall, we had a very nice experience, we are glad to recommend them

Amazing experience
I totally recommend Suricata Safari. We booked a tour for two days, first day we went to Ngorongoro and the other day to Tarangire. We saw lots of animals very close to us and we took lots of pictures.
Our tour guide, Max, was very nice and expained us many things about the animals and the places we saw.
The lunch and dinner we had were absolutely delicious. Also the accommodation was nice and clean.
It was an experience we would like to repeat again in the future.
