The best experience we ever had !!!
Me and my husband went to Tanzania for our honeymoon and we had wonderful time with Suricata Safaris.
We did 4 day lodge type safari. From the beginning we had great communication with Hilary ( the owner) who answered all our questions. Everything was perfectly organized – the driver picked us up at the airport and took us to a hotel in Arusha where we met Hilary. Our safari driver was Onesmo who has great knowledge about animals and Tanzanitan wilderness. We spent 4 beautiful days in 3 different parks (Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro) and had seen lots of animals including the „Big Five“.
After safari Hilary even took us to have lunch in local restaurant in Arusha which was a great experience. Everything was just perfect and I definitely recommend Surica Safaris!

Fantastic Safari with Suricata!
My girlfriend and I did a five day lodge safari with Suricata. Hilary took care of the planning and answered all our questions very patiently. Our guide/driver Freddy did an extraordinary job. He was always on time, in a good mood and knew everything about the local flora and fauna. The lodges booked by Suricata met all our expectations.
Overall, I highly recommend Suricata Safaris as a very reliable and trustworthy company who offers very high quality services.
Thank you very much!

The best safari experience, bar none
We had the most amazing time with Suricata Safaris! We just arrived from our 6-day safari and only have positive things to say. They took us to through all the important parks and made sure we didn’t miss a thing at each one.
But the best part of it was the team who took us on safari. Charles, our cook, who made sure we had everything we needed at all times and cooked delicious meals everyday, making sure we always had good cup of coffee and tea available. And of course, our driver and guide, Floridi. He was absolutely the best and took care of us as if we were family. We learned so much from him, had a lot of laughs and fun during the long game drives, and saw many more animals than we thought possible thanks to his help and planning.
What more could we ask for? We know that without them, our entire experience wouldn’t have been as enjoyable.
We would, without a doubt, repeat with them 100%!

Great 7-day trip
After looking up information on this website we decided to take a tour with Suricata for a 7-day safari trip. What a week it has been!
Ezekiel, our driver, knows everything about the parks and animals that live there. During the full day game drives he chose the routes and tracks were we saw so many animals and beautiful sceneres. The cook, Dionis, made the best dishes for us and prepared us great packed lunches.
We would definitely recommend to chose Suricata for a safari in Tanzania. We would like to thank our chef and driver again for this amazing experience! Asante sana :)

Suricata provided a unique experience by excellent planning and friendly & professional staff.
Unforgettable 4-day safari
Serengeti -> Ngorongoro -> Tarangire
Driver / Guide: Onesmo
Cook: Benjudah
My wife and I took part in a four-day camping safari in August 2019 (6 people in total). We chose Suricata because from the very beginning we had a very pleasant and obliging contact with Hillary. Also because Suricata had the comparatively best package on offer. For example, during the four-day safari, the night before the start and the night after the end were included in the package.
From the beginning we felt really well cared for. Upon arrival at the hotel, we were met by Prince and Hillary. They answered all our questions and prepared us for the upcoming trip.
The safari was perfectly organized through and through. Onesmo is an excellent driver and very pleasant and experienced guide. We received a lot of knowledge about the animals from him and it became clear that the wilderness with its inhabitants is very important to him.
Benjudah has surprised us every day with breakfast, lunch and delicious dinner that you can hardly expect on a tent safari. He was also a very pleasant and funny companion.
We've seen all five of the "Big Five" of in the four days (a rhinoceros from a distance), four of them already on the first day in the Serengeti. Among other things, we were fortunate enough to see cheetah babies, lion babies and a mating pair of lions. We had the feeling that the animals were always treated with reasonable respect; no wild driving stunts were made, just so that us tourists would get close to the animals.
As a nice goodie at the end, the guys surprised us with huts instead of tents for our last night at Lilac Campsite. After two consecutive nights in ground tents, this was a very welcome change.
The bottom line is that we can fully and completely recommend Suricata without any reservation. Although we have no comparison, we are sure that Suricata is among the best safari providers in the region.

Amazing service, they really care about you enjoying the experience!
I was really surprised about how great they managed every situation. The service was amazing. They welcomed us and explained us everything again. When the safari started they even upgraded the experience. Whenever we were on the road we could see how Fredric, our guide, was always trying to make us enjoy the experience; he knew a lot about the animals, the place and the country itself. It was great to have somebody so prepared during the trip. We saw the big 5!! We are really thankful and will totally recommend Suricata! They are amazing! :)

Surikata safari was the best and highly recommended.
Everything was perfect. A guide to driving and looking for animals, a cook who cooks all the meals deliciously, and the people who were with him were all kind and sensible and able. Thanks to them, I could see many animals. It allows me to find the best location and capture it with my eyes and camera at leisurely. If I go back later, I will make another reservation as a suricata company. 한국인들도 있을 거 같아서 남깁니다. 무조건 수리카타로 예약하세요. 그리고 에제키엘과 프린스는 최고의 직원들입니다. 진짜 강추에요.

WOW
I can only say positive things. Nice the first contact by e-mail were straightforward, my questions were answered immediately and everything was smoothly. We booked the 5 day tented safari and I can only say it was great! Lewis the guide and Hilda the chefs were so incredibly good and made everything an unforgettable experience. Even small problems with the car were solved quickly and so it could go too. You can not say much about the game drives except "wow" we saw so many animals, it was just indescribably beautiful. Hilda as a cook cooked fresh for us every day or prepared the picnic and it was all delicious. Also the equipment was in good condition. I can recommend the company 100%.

Amazing animal interactions
Went beyond my expectations! Saw so many animals, up close! It was really cool to be able to camp in the parks too! We had buffalo, zebra and elephants all come up close to our tent! Amazing guides, and amazing food.
