Searching for the Big5 in Serengeti National Park
Searching for the big5 with Freddy from Suricata Safari.
A beautiful 4-day trip to discover the Serengeti National Park and other natural parks in Tanzania. It was an incredible trip full of wonderful places and lots of animals.
Freddy knows all the secret places where there is a greater chance of meeting “rare” animals to see. He is always available to tell stories and anecdotes about the animals and the local culture. He is very attentive, friendly and makes you feel at home. If you book ask for him as a guide!
We chose the mid-range option shared with other travellers.
The places where we stayed at night were enchanting. From the hospitality to the food everything was excellent. The places chosen by Suricata Safari to sleep have Wi-Fi connection, hot shower, very kind staff. This company in addition to being local is also very well equipped for all your needs and desires.
They organized a cake for my wife's birthday in one of their locations. The staff surprised her and sang local songs for her birthday.
The staff is very kind and always attentive to your needs.
We managed to see the big5 and many other animals.
An incredible trip that will forever be in our memory!
Exceptional
Most book with Suricata!
We had an amazing 4 day safari tour that went beyond our expectations! When you book, you must request Freddy. He was so knowledgeable about the area and animals and was an expert on locating areas where we might have a chance seeing our animal wishes. He was exceptional and made the whole trip as good as it was. The team at suricata is very organized. You don’t have to think once you arrive. Your hotels are settled, meals all the days are prepared for you and they will help you with any additional assistance to arrive and depart after your safari. We did the mid range and all the hotels and/or campsites were clean, had working WiFi, hot water and delicious meals. For those that like wine, beer or cocktails after a long day, every location had it for purchase in their locations. I especially loved the suricata bomba lodge with its beautiful rooms, architecture and spa. I cannot recommend suricata enough.
This is an incredible value for what you pay and wonderful service and communication

Everything is perfect!
We booked the safari via email and later via Whatsapp. Communication worked well.
Unfortunately we were not picked up at the airport, but after a Whatsapp, a driver came after 2 minutes. So it didn't bother us and everything after that went smoothly!
About the safari: it was really amazing! Mandela, our guide and driver, really made an effort, we always had time to see the animals, he drove safely and was super friendly! We were able to learn a lot about the animals and experience them up close! I can only recommend it to everyone!
We booked the 5 days in the mid-price lodge category and were overwhelmed by the accommodation! Really nice and very special. The food was always very good and we always had freshly cooked food for lunch, whereas other providers only had packed lunches.
We ultimately decided on Suricata because of the price-performance ratio and would do it again and again. You see the other providers' vehicles all the time anyway and experience the same thing, which makes the sometimes much higher price with other providers incomprehensible!
So full marks and we would do the safari with Suricata again.

Amazing 5 Day Camping Safari
We booked the 5 Days Camping Safari.
Everything was perfect organized from the beginning until the end of the trip.
Our Guide Amiri was super friendly. He spotted lots of animals and made sure that we‘re always in the perfect spot to take our pictures.
He also explained a lot about Tanzania and answered all of our questions.
He made that trip special!
Asante sana Amiri!!!
The Food was also delicious!
Every day we had freshly cooked lunch and dinner in the middle of the national parks while other tours had food out of plastic boxes.
Shout out to the chef Tito! Asante sana!
The camps in Serengeti and Ngorongoro were easy but practical - you have all you need.
I would recommend to bring some warm clothes to Ngorongoro if you go in Ocotber.
We didn‘t like Twinga Camp so much. It is not in a National Park and noisy because it‘s close to the main street.
At the end of the trip our driver Chuke brought us back to our hotel. He‘s a cool open minded guy with a cheerful character.
So beside Twinga Camp I would give 10 Stars if I could❤️

An amazing Safari in Tanzania. Booked with Suricata safari's, we had an amazing guide Barracka who took us round the parks and gave us lots of information on all the animals and what we were looking at, he was patient with us taking photos and did a great job and pointing them out, we got so close to some of them I was not expecting this at all!. our cook Tito cooked us amazing food everyday, the pancakes were a highlight! At the end of our experience we met with Daniel to tell him all about it.highly recommend Booking your safari with these guys you will not regret it!

The best safari operator in Tanzania
We had an amazing 5 days with Suricata Safaris! Amazing lodges, delicious food but most of all the wonderful people from Suricata. Our guide Golden was indeed a man made of gold. His kindness, knowledge about the parks, tribes and the animals was beyond expectation. We couldn’t wish for a more unique experience than this. Therefore I highly recommend a safari tour with Suricata.

Unforgettable safari with Suricata
We loved our 5-day safari with Suricata. We are beyond satisfied with the service. Each and every accomodation was full of kind and caring staff. We enjoyed the game drives with our lovely & knowledgable tour guide. He knew the best spots and thanks to him we were able to spot dozens of wild animals. We’ll return and one day and will choose Suricata again. Highly recommended :)

Best experience!
As a solo female traveler visiting Tanzania for the first time, this organization made my trip truly unforgettable. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. They are available 24/7 to guide you, providing all the information you need before booking and ensuring a seamless departure from Arusha. You can ask them anything, and they will make it happen.
Upon arriving at the hotel, I was briefed by my guide, Daniel, who was fantastic. He took care of everything during my stay and arranged my departure from Arusha. I went on a 4-day mid-lodge safari, and our guide, Lewis, was amazing. He was funny, kind, and went above and beyond to give us the best views of the animals. He shared so much information about the wildlife and the parks, making the experience even more special.
The food arrangements were excellent; every day we had freshly prepared meals by the cook, even for lunch. The entire team was incredibly welcoming and made the safari experience the best I could ever have imagined.
I 100% recommend this company for anyone looking to do a safari in Tanzania!
