Super
I thoroughly enjoyed a 5-day mid-range safari with Jikil; it comes highly recommended. When I return, I will undoubtedly choose Suricata once again.
From the moment of airport pickup to the exceptional food, comfortable accommodations, and well-organized game drives, everything was executed with professionalism.
Furthermore, every member of the Suricata team I encountered exhibited remarkable kindness and helpfulness.
A special shoutout to Chuke for his generous assistance in resolving my ATM issues in Arusha – his support was truly invaluable.

Amazing experience!
Me and my boyfriend had a great experience with Surikata safari.
When I started looking for a safari, I was really worried about booking on my own because it often happens to bump into a fraud.
However, Hilary, the chief of surikata safari, was available to call and explain me everything i needed and answered every whatsapp text I sent him. That made us rely on this company and we booked the 5 nights budget safari (which means sleeping in the tent).
5nighs safari actually includes more than just the safari stuff (pick up at there airport, accomodation in arusha...), but they will explain if you ask them.
Regarding our experience, we really loved serengheti and ngoro ngoro parks (remember to bring something warm for ngoro ngoro couse it s cold), we have seen a lot of animals and taken many poctures.
Tarangire was fine as well, but if I could change something, I would maybe skip the Lake manyara park because is not very interesting, you loose one day and you get tired.
Our guide was well prepared and food was good.
The camping site were in the middle of the nature, which allowed us to see the sunset and the sunrise; the tents were generally clean.
Overall, i warmly recommend Surikata safari, also because its good bilance between quality and price.

Edgar and Daniel were awesome.

Great
Super 6 Day Family Camping Safari: Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire.
Unforgettable memories in Serengeti and Ngorongoro where we slept among the animals.
Rocky, our guide, speaks very good French and has a good knowledge of wildlife and history. He was very kind to the children and always took good care of us. He showed us many animals.
The food prepared by Salim was excellent and the children loved it.
New comfortable Land Cruiser.

Beautiful private Safari
Magnificent private family safari with our 3 children in Taranguire, Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
Our guide, Rocky, spoke excellent French. He listened attentively to us and did his utmost to ensure that we saw as many animals as possible. He explained the animals' way of life and the history of the places we visited.
Our cook Salim prepared balanced, varied and delicious dishes. Everything was homemade, including the bread.
Rocky and Salim were very kind to us and the children.
Our car was very comfortable.
It was our 1st time camping, and sleeping among the animals was an unforgettable experience.
We're leaving with wonderful family memories.

A great Company attentive ti the customer
We have chosen suricata safari among many companies and different estimates, certainly the company with the best value for money. The safari was splendid, well organized as timing, excellent and fresh food every day, clean and comfortable accommodation. Our guide Freddie made the safari easy and informative, he was an expert guide and we were able to see so many animals. Do not hesitate to trust this company! I recommend the mid-range safari as the accommodations are comfortable but at the same time you have the opportunity to be in close contact with nature.

Amazing experience with delicious food and an incredible team
First time in Tanzania with my sister and had an amazing time with the team at Suricata. Our guide; Gordon was incredibly accommodating and made sure all members of our group were well taken care of. He also has a vast amount of knowledge to share and a keen eye for spotting the incredible wildlife in the parks. Our chef;
Tito also of himself with all the freshly prepared breakfast, lunch and dinners we had over for days. Food was top tier and catered to everyone's diets! All tents were prepared and packed perfectly each time we arrived at the campsites by the team of porters behind the scenes.
Speaking of camping, I am not a huge fan of it but this experience certainly made it a comfortable experience.
Transactions were handled smoothly and instructions were clear for each day and activity would proceed. Our group were also very lucky to have seen the big 5 and more on our first two days (four on the first day) with a day to spare. Would highly recommend this team. Asante sana! Thank you for having usp

Fantastic experience!!
Excellent safari—saw all the big 5!!! Suricata had amazing customer service!!! Especially appreciate Hillary’s availability by text the night before as well as throughout—just in case we needed anything. We requested a hotel stay instead of camping (had just come off hiking Kilimanjaro and were craving some creature comforts); our stay was at the newly opened operator resort: Suricata Boma Lodge. It was one of the most beautiful resorts I have ever stayed in, and the all inclusive dinner was stellar.
All pick ups and transfers were on-time and exactly as promised, which was a relief and different from other experiences in Africa we have had.
Would recommend again!
