Lifetime experience
We used Suricata Safaris for a 4 day tent safari in the national parks of Tanzania (tarangire, ngoro ngoro and serengeti) and for the 6 day kilimanjaro climb along the Machame route.
What can I say, they were exceptional experiences from all points of view: the company is very organized, they think of everything, from airport transfers to hotel nights between activities and the day of arrival, always available and present and more than attentive to customer feedback. All the people who accompanied and assisted us were fantastic, always with a smile on their faces and attentive to our every request.
Not to mention the food: both during the Safari and on the kilimanjaro we had 2 chefs (Musa and Gasto) who delighted us with many African and non-African specialties.
The guides, both of the Safari (Vincent) and of the kilimanjaro (Fred and Adam) were the top, always smiling and willing to give us any information we needed.
Both the Safari and the kilimanjaro were 2 experiences that we will always remember, and this thanks to Suricata Safaris.
Asante sana!

Best Value for mid range group Safari with top quality accommodation & amazing service
We did a 5 day group mid-range safari with Suricata. It really exceeded our expectations because we saw the Big Five within the first 3 days and even saw tree climbing lions, a leopard resting on a tree, and a cheetah searching for a prey.
Hilary was very prompt in replying to our queries and made the booking process easy. We booked last minute but he managed to get us the same quality and style accommodation as those ones in the brochure.
Dickson, our guide/driver, was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of interesting facts about the wildlife. He accommodated all our requests, making sure we were comfortable and had the best spot for viewing and taking photos.
We stayed in one mid-range lodge and three tented camps. Suricata chose very tastefully decorated tents that were simple, super comfortable and had everything we needed to rest for the next day. The tented camps inside the Serengeti and Ngorongoro were not fenced and it was just amazing to hear hyenas calling out, and zebras and water buffalos grazing outside your tent as you lay in bed. They served 3 course meal for dinner which was really good and tasty with a simple breakfast of toast, pancakes, cereal, eggs, bacon and sausages.
Make sure you bring warm clothes and jackets for layering as it gets cold in the evening, while it is warm during the day. Ngorongoro is quite high up and gets a bit chilly even during the day.
Overall, this package is really great value for the price. Suricata even arranged accommodation on the night before and after our tour with airport transfer. The organization was seamless and we didn’t have to worry about anything at all. Everyone from booking, airport pickup, briefing, check in and check out, and the tour itself, provided 7 star service every single time and made us want to come back and do it all over again.
We will definitely recommend Suricata to all our family and friends.

Awesome and Caring
The experience with Suricata Safaris was honestly amazing. All the places we went were lovely and unexpected (of course in a positif way).
We saw all the animals we wanted to see, and our guide, Mandela, took time to explain everything / answer to our questions about the animals, Tanzanie etc.
He is a wonderful person (amazing cooker too !!) who truly loves nature.
Anyway, everything was perfect and somehow better than I was expected.
Thanks again guys !
Asante ! Hakuna Matata.

A trip for life, Suricata rocks it
All services provided were simply awesome! On top of the natural beauty of all places we visited and friendliness of Tanzanian people, Suricata was perfectly taking care of all details, since the airport pick-up to tasteful meals and amazing guides, especially Mr. Alex (the Kilimanjaro specialist) and Mr. Mandela (this one simply knows everything about Tanzanian National parks)!
I definitely recommend Suricata for everyone who is willing to have an outstanding experience and a trip for a life!

Unforgettable
We had a such great time and incredible experience with Suricata. We were 6 people and we did 1 day Kilimanjaro and 4 days Safari.
I would highlight the guides Alex (Kilimanjaro) and Mandela (Safari) for the support, knowledge and kindness during the trip. Also the lunch prepared for each day!!
Hilary the owner was very supportive as well when arranging the trip.
See you around guys!
