Reviews
Rasta was an amazing guide with expert knowledge. He is a credit to the company.
We did the Mid Lodge experience. Highly recommend. Accommodation was very good, especially Suricata Bommer Lodge which was pure luxury and had excellent staff. If you have Rasta as your guide you will be in for a brilliant informative experience with good company.

Rasta - Excellent Tour Guide !!
I booked this safari last minute with my friend and we had the best time! We did two days Serengeti and one day Mgorongoro and it was AMAZING! Rasta was an incredible guide - very informative, calm, considerate, on time and full of interesting stories. We saw all the big five cats up close because he just knew where to be at the right time. I highly recommend him! And the food was also incredible from Chef Samson - soo soo yummy and nobody’s stomach was upset.

Amazing tour!
Filex and Amiri were absolutely phenomenal! They made the entire experience enjoyable, informative, and seamless from start to finish. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five and so much more, while learning a great deal about the wildlife, the parks, and the local environment along the way. Their communication was excellent throughout the tour, and their professionalism, knowledge, and enthusiasm made the trip truly unforgettable. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an exceptional safari experience!

Incredible experience
We had an incredible four day safari with Rasta Man. He was an excellent guide and did an amazing job finding the Big Five. He always made sure we had the best position to see the animals clearly and take great photos. He is very knowledgeable about wildlife and the local tribal communities, and he taught us so much throughout the safari. He was also friendly, patient, and made the whole experience unforgettable! Thank you so much Rasta Man!
From the moment I contacted Suricata Safaris, Grace was very friendly and quick to provide all the information needed to book the safari. When our airline cancelled our flight last minute, Grace quickly arranged a pickup from Kilimanjaro instead of Arusha and stayed very responsive throughout the entire situation, which was extremely reassuring!
It was truly an incredible experience, and we highly recommend Rasta Man and Suricata Safaris to anyone planning a safari!
A trip like no other I’ve taken!
We chose this medium level safari thinking the accommodations, food and service wouldn’t be great but every aspect of this tour far exceeded our expectations! From the beginning when I was working with Grace to arrange our safari to the last night in the Arusha hotel everything was top notch!
All of our accommodations were first rate…even the bush camp tent had, two separate bedrooms, a large living area and two en-suite bathrooms! The two other lodges and the Arusha hotel were also excellent. All meals were included in this tour and they were excellent. We even had hot lunches while on safari!
Charles, our guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the animals and parks. He made sure we saw every animal! He, along with Grace, was also so helpful when we needed to make a change in our tour. Just the best service from both of these people!
In short, I can recommend this safari with Suricata with no reservations!
reliable
An adventure I’ll never forget, had a brilliant and friendly tour guide Jesse who was very helpful and taught us a lot!

All the Animals, Wonderful Experience
Our travel party was two families of 4.
Thanks to our excellent guides Filex and Amiri, we were able to see everyone’s favorite animals - plenty of lions, elephants, cheetahs, and even a few rhinos. Everyone left thrilled.
We settled on Suricata after doing a thorough price comparison and combing through review feedback. They lived up to our expectations. We had minor car issues that the drivers handled admirably

5 days with 9 mates across Serengeti, Crater & Tarangire
Organizing a 5-day run for nine of us was bound to be chaotic, but Suricata Safaris handled our group surprisingly well. We split into two cruisers, which turned out great for legroom and capturing camera angles on the move.
Our lead guide Jeremy (along with Alex in the second vehicle) coordinated everything via radio so neither rig missed out. Highlights were definitely the morning in Central Serengeti—where we sat watching two lions near a waterhole before any crowd arrived—and the sheer scale of elephant herds down in Tarangire. The long dusty drives between parks can get exhausting, but Jeremy kept the energy up with good banter and local history. Food at the tented camps was solid, vehicles were clean every morning, and the team was dead punctual. Solid choice if you're traveling in a bigger group.

3-day friends' trip across Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro!
Four of us booked a quick 3-day circuit with Suricata Safaris, and Jeremy was an absolute masterclass of a safari guide. He didn't just drive us—his deep environmental knowledge transformed the entire experience. On our first afternoon, we spent five hours traversing Lake Manyara, where Jeremy guided us directly to tree-climbing lions perched in acacias and massive baboon troops. The next day, after driving into the Serengeti for an eight-hour stretch across the plains, his instincts brought us face-to-face with a leopard resting on a kopje alongside vast herds of wildebeest. We wrapped up the trip with five hours inside Ngorongoro Crater, spotting rare black rhinos, wallowing hippos, and lions lounging right beside our vehicle. The extended land cruiser fit our group and camera gear easily, and the coordination was flawless throughout!

Outstanding experience
It was our first ever safari experience, me and my wife absolutely loved everything during the 5 day safari and our guide Jerry made it even better. Highly recommend Suricata Safaris for future safaris :)
