Reviews
An Unforgettable Safari Experience
Our safari experience with Suricata Safaris has been excellent from start to finish! Our guide, Jeremiah, is absolutely fantastic. He is an excellent driver, very knowledgeable, extremely polite, and always attentive to every detail.
We were also incredibly lucky to have him as our guide, as we managed to see some of the most difficult animals to spot several times — including leopards! His experience and dedication definitely made the experience even more special.
The lunches were also consistently delicious, which was a wonderful bonus during our days out in the parks.
We highly recommend Suricata Safaris, and especially Jeremiah, for an unforgettable safari experience!

Fantastic Safari Experience
We booked a 3-day camping safari with Suricata Safaris adventuring to the Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. While the booking was relatively simple, we had a scheduling issue when we got to our accommodations. Our safari was initially booked incorrectly by the sales representative, but it was quickly resolved by Kevin/Celvin, our briefer at the Jevas Hotel (one of the accommodation locations). I really appreciated how swiftly he was able to resolve this issue.
We were paired with Felix for our driver. Felix had a great eye for spotting the various animals and was a very caring and patient person. He was experienced and knew where to go to find the animals. Thanks to Felix, I feel incredibly blessed to have been able to see all the Big 5 (we saw 4 out of 5 on our first day!).
The camping accommodations were fine and were located in public camping sites inside the park. While the facilities lacked consistent hot water and working showers, they were not responsible for that. I also thought the food was good! I really enjoyed having a hot lunch rather than a boxed lunch. Additionally, during dinner, they brought out bottles of wine!
I am glad we went with Suricata Adventures. They have their operations together but I think a little clearer communication could have helped our itinerary issue.

Exceptional and tailored
I did a 3-day by budget Serengeti + Ngorongoro safari starting from Arusha on August 16th with Felix (our guide).
The tour operator was exceptional, with professional tour guides, chefs, drivers and dedicated personnel. They were all fluent in English and did their best to accommodate our needs. The homemade meals were delicious and the staff took care of our equipment, tents and everything in between.
Regarding our driver and tour guide, what can I say. Thanks to Felix, we saw all big animals including the rare-to-be-found cheetahs, rhinos and leopards and he managed to find the best spots for videos and photos compared to most vehicles during our game drives. There were 6+ vehicles from the same tour operator around the area, so thanks to their telecommunications we could find all the animals in the area without looking for hours. Felix also provided details and useful wildlife information during our trip, making us more engaged.
This was my 2nd safari and it far exceeded my expectations. I blindly recommend them!

Amazing
My husband and I went on a three-day safari with Steve, visiting both the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It was an unforgettable experience; Steve demonstrated the utmost professionalism, helpfulness, and kindness, striving to meet our every request while sharing a wealth of fascinating information. What we particularly appreciated was his integrity and deep respect for the animals. We were guests there, and he strictly followed the rules, never driving off-road; I feel it is important to mention that other drivers did go off-road, displaying an almost aggressive attitude toward the wildlife. Never ask a driver to go off-road—respect nature and respect the animals, just as Steve did!

Incredible!
Behind the wonder of our trip is the work of so many people, who welcomed, guided, and fed us every day with care, kindness, and always a smile. Our driver Melita took us on a journey to discover all the big five and the ugly five, giving us a unique and unforgettable insight into each one and a unique experience. The food was excellent and plentiful at every meal, and the campsites were well-equipped and comfortable. I recommend this tour operator to anyone who wants to live the true safari experience.
Asante sana!
