the best safari I’ve ever been on!
We had the absolute best time on our safari. Airport pickup and drop off were smooth, our guide, Fredrick, was absolutely amazing, incredibly knowledgeable and so fun. He answered every single question we had and managed to find every animal we wanted to see (lions, cheetahs, elephants, rhinos, giraffes, etc). Our chef, Chaz, was THE BEST. Every meal was amazing. Camping was warm and comfortable and we had zebras hanging around our tent all night in Ngorogoro. I honestly can’t think of anyway our trip could have been better. 100% recommend to anyone looking for a fun, safe, exciting safari trip. We are already talking about how soon we can come back and do it again.

Worths every dollar
I can highly recommend Suricata Safaris as a safari tour organizer. Everything from airport transfer till drop-off was excellent. Thanks to professionalism of guide Mandela we saw everyone during our 4-days safari in Serengeti, Tarangire and Ngoro national parks. It worths every dollar!

A dream come true and a lifetime experience
You just seat and relax because Suricata guys are doing everything for you from flight, accomodation and viewing games. If we are talking about the Safari you must ask for Rocky as your guide cause he is the best. We hit the Big 5 thanks to Rocky. About trust be sure that you are well take care and feel like în family.

Mandela was outstanding and a credit to the company, his knowledge is terrific.
Me, my sister and my mum went on a 5 day camping safari with Suricata Safaris. The night before, at the gateway lodge, Hilary came to visit us to ensure everything was sorted and at the end, Ali and his brother (our final driver) came to see us to ensure we were happy with everything which was very courteous. During the trip, we had Mandela who was terrific! He was a 10/10 guide. His knowledge is outstanding, a safe driver, and very friendly and genuine. Our cook was Tito and the food was absolutely amazing. He takes a lot of pride in his work, as they all do, and the we all really enjoyed the continental style food. He catered well for 5/6 vegetarians in the group. We had things like pizza, rice, vegetables, salad, potatoes, pancakes, grilled meats were available, spaghetti, and much more. At Twiga lodge, our first and second nights stay, there was a pool which was nice to cool down after a long day as well as a mini supermarket/shop just outside which was good for snacks during the safari tours! At Simba campsite A, there was lots of zebras and buffalo surrounding the site. At the other campsite, in the Serengeti, we had hyenas round us at night too! (In the bushes, but we could hear them). The tents were comfortable, just as you would expect for a tent and a roll mat with a sleeping bag and pillow. Lots of toilet breaks too which was great. Mandela was great at finding us all of the Big 5 and we had the best time. I would absolutely recommend Suricata Safaris. AMAZING.

Trip of a lifetime!
Enjoyed everything from start to finish. I loved the variety in all the parks, no place was the same and this meant we seen so much beautiful scenery and animals. Mandela and Tito looked after us soo well- a full day sightseeing was not complete without the amazing food we were provided. We would definitely do this tour again and recommend to all

Life changing experience thank you
I went with my 2 daughter. We wanted to camp rather than use the lodges. The animals surrounded our tents at night and it was wonderful to hear the sounds as they are and settled for the night. Everything was run very professionally from pick up to drop off. Mandela was terrific. He could spot animals that no one else could and had an excellent knowledge of the animals and landscape Tito our chef prepared the most delicious food from very basic facilities from pizza and chips to amazing African dishes highly recommend both very friendly polite and always very smart in their uniforms Suracata definitely value for money but most importantly for the safari you will remember for ever

Best safari company in Tanzania
We have enjoyed a 4 days safari in which we chose the path for Tarangire, Serengeti 2 days and Ngorongoro. We went with the option of the lodge but the tent it is as well a very good choice. If you want to be budget go with the tent. If you don’t want any extra things to carry and just to enjoy the safari, book the lodge version. It’s almost like going into a hotel.
Our guide Fred was very prepared and documented. He had the answers for all our questions. He’s a skilled driver, kind person, polite and we are happy we had him as our guide.
Our cook Samail prepared us each time a delicious meal and with a big variety of options… taking into account that he cooked into savana.
The experience into the parks was memorable and with Fred’s experience we were able to see almost all the animals (beside the stubborn rhino whose population is quite small and was hiding in the day when we went in Ngorongoro Park).

Incredible 3-day hike to Mount Meru
After already having done a 7-day safari with Suricata Safaris, we decided to do our Mount Meru hike also with them - and we were not disappointed! We had a great hike and our guide Alex and the entire team, including the chef and all porters, were very professional, calm and friendly in every situation. On our private tour, we had a lot of fun with the team and we always enjoyed a very good food, which gave us all the energy needed to master the mountain. Of course, the highlight of the trip was the summit of Mount Meru, with an incredible sunrise and an awesome view on the crater and Kilimanjaro. A big thanks to Suricata, Alex and the entire team, to make this possible!

Proffesional and costumer well taken care
They picked us up at Kilimanjaro airport at 9pm (the driver was waiting for us at the entrance). The vehicle was very comfortable and when we arrived at thd lodge, we were given the briefing for the safari next morning. Everything was well organized and they know how to keep the costumer happy and comfy. They knew where and how to spot different animals (even those that where almost invisible). I trully recommend Suricata safaris
