An incredible experience
We had an excellent safari with Suricata. From booking, to debrief, the customer service has been exemplary. They are a very flexible company who listen to guest requests and tailor the tour to meet their needs. Our guide Gordon was constantly making sure his service was meeting our expectations, we were fortunate enough to see all of the big five, and much much more. Tito the chef catered to our dietary needs (vegan) very well and each meal was different and tasty, always plenty of freshly cooked food, whereas majority of other tours were eating packed lunch! We had a briefing on arrival from Daniel, and then a debrief afterwards to take any feedback (all positive from us)! Thank you Suricata, until next time.

Great 4 days adventure safari
Our 4-day adventure safari was absolutely worth the money. The organization in advance via WhatsApp went well, and the safari itself was also well organized. Our guide Rocky was humorous and provided a lot of useful information. The food was outstanding. The tents and sanitary facilities were functional and in order.

It was an uncomplicated, flexible booking and successful implementation.
It was a great experience all round. Our guide (Rocky) had a good eye for hidden animals, so we were able to see lots of them and get very close to them. He also told us a lot about the animals' way of life, but also about the parks themselves. It was the perfect mix of fun, seeing and learning.
Lunch and dinner were always freshly prepared and were also very tasty. There was fish/meat, as well as plenty of vegetarian options.
We chose the camping option, which was also a great experience, as you could hear the animals at night and, because there was no fence, you felt like you were sleeping in the middle of them. It was a bit hard and there wasn't always hot water, but that's part of camping. Otherwise, we recommend a thick sweater, as it got very cold at night.

One of the best Experiences I had. Rocky was such a great Guide. Really funny, knowledgeable and great at spotting animals. The Accomodations were always nice. Sleeping in Serengeti with Elephants in front of our Lodge was an amazing experience. Thanks to Pius aswell for the great food.

highly recommend suricata safaris
I would recommend Suricata Safaris 100%. From communication to value and experience I would rate these guys 5 stars! Our first safari experience and we loved it. Daniel was very helpful organising the airport transfers and welcoming us at the hotel on our first night. Lewis our driver was very knowledgeable and REALLY got us in to the right place right time at all of the parks. We managed to see the big 5! ♥️ Godfrey was our driver for Lake Manyara and what a lovely guy!
Many thanks to all of the team at Suricata Safaris!
We will be back again! ♥️

Best Safari Experience in Tanzania
In two days, we saw and identified 32 different types of animals. Our eagle eyed guide Micheal was the best part of the trip, he never missed an animal laying in the bush, he flipped through his bird book to give us all of the information to the questions we asked, but most importantly he got us halfway across Tanzania and back safely. Compared to the other drivers on the road, Michael was calm, cool, collected, and extremely safe and professional. We have spent a total of 10 days in the country and we have never had better food than with Suricata. We are so glad that we got to join a group of fellow travelers to enjoy the Safari with! Met some great people! Also, last minute we were informed that we got upgraded from tent camping to a double room with a shower, for no charge, because it rained the morning prior. After just hiking Kilimanjaro for 6 days, without beds and showers, we were extremely Grateful. Our briefing with Dennis and our Debriefing with Daniel were both very informative and professional. Both of them brought smiles to our faces and made us feel safe and welcome. If you’re coming to Tanzania for Safari, do not use any other company!!!!!

The Best Safari Experience!
Big thanks for an amazing Safari experience in Serengeti and Ngorongoro! The entire trip was memorable. We were able to spot the BIG 5 and it was just fantastic thinking that we had only 3 days tour. I just want to say a BIG THANKS to Baraka who was really the best tour guide! He was very professional and he explained to us about every single wild animal that we saw in the park. He shared us the books during the trip and also promised that he will do all he can to let us spot the Big Five, which he did! He is a wonderful person, with a lot of passion and dedication to what he is doing. Big thanks to Chef Samson that cooked for us delicious food over the 3 days of Safari. The camping option was great with all the facilities. The wildlife in the parks is simply wonderful to see! I would definitely recommend Suricata Safari to everyone.
Thank you.

I am glad Inhave chosen this company!
💯 reccomend! Our 4 day midrange tour was amazing! Tour guide Lewis did his best and we saw all The big 5 game Africas animals! Our chef Lucas was not only making the food but also helping in seeing wild animals! He has a good eye :) Accommodations where we spend our nights were super good: big, comfortable beds, cozy dinners and time next the fire.
Daniel arranged everything from the start to the last minute when driving back to airpor. What else you could wish for?!?
PS - all the lunch we had at picnic areas during the safari were hot, restaurant made dishes (chicken, beef, vegetable curry).

Damian safari = best safari
Amazing trip and experience, we had the pleasure of having Damian (Maurcie) and Lucas as private chef, the organizer and briefing was given to us by Daniel. Even if we didn’t pick up the car group we found one of the best group, full of laughter, positive energy, helpful and reasonable people. Everything was on point, the transfer from the airport to the meeting place, the transfer to the hotel and to the airport, the car transport in the safari. We choose the lounge accommodation and it was mirific, we had beautiful scenery before the sunset, amazing view over the Serengeti plains, hot shower (research 5 minute showers), great food, decent selection of beverages (they are extra cost and not included in the trip).
In the safari we managed to see the BIG FIVE, leopard and rhino were the trickiest, however Damian managed to get us the live pictures. I would recommend booking the trips with him - the amount of knowledge and experience of this man are out of this world, not to mention the driving skills in those condition (we got rain, mud and fog). He was always very polite, tried his best to answer all our questions even those not related to the safari.
