Amazing experience!!
We had a great experience with Suricata Safaris!! When we arrived Hilary came to explain the itineraty, he is very expressive and nice. We started the safari with Frederic as our guide! Amazing, he knows a lot about wild animals and we got to see cheetahs, lions, leopard… in Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara and Tarangire!! Also we had the opportunity to be last day with Ezequiel and the experience kept very well!!! And all this with the best cook Axel, many different plates and all delicious!! We recomend this agency 100%

A fascinating week!
We had a great experience with Suricata Safaris !!
It was all very comfortable since they took care of all the transport. As soon as we arrived, Hilary came to our accommodation to explain what our itinerary was going to be for the next few days. It is very expressive and pleasant. We started the safari with Frederic as our guide. He is a very laid back and experienced guy with whom we were able to see cheetahs, lions, leopards ... in Serengeti, Lake Manyara, Norongoro and Tarangire. We also had the opportunity to meet Ezequiel on the last day of the safari as our guide and the experience was just as good. Finally, highlight the great work in the kitchen of Axel, our chef, who took pains to prepare traditional dishes that were delicious !!!
We recommend this agency to everyone who wants to enjoy some incredible days.

Amazing safari! Great experience
I did a five day safari tour with a friend with Suricata and the experience was amazing. We were picked up and drop off from the airport and Hilary was a great host, he explained us everything we need to know before the departure. We took the camping option, everything is provided, mats, sleeping bags and tents. The facilities (kitchen, toilets and showers) are very clean and proper. Our guide, Mandela, was excellent, he is very kind and professional and knows all the parks by heart, he knows where to drive depending on the times, weather etc. The food was also great, our cook Chaz made us try all the local food. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included in the pack, fresh fruit, vegetables and meat or fish. The lunch in the park is not a picnic box as we could see from other tours operators! We had a great time, we were maximum 6 people in the car and it was nice to share a glass of wine at night in the camping with the rest of the team.I highly recommend Suricata to everyone, I cannot say anything wrong from this experience.

Professional yet adventurous, expansive yet value for money and organized yet in touch with nature.
We've just had one of our best adventures thanks to Suricata Safaris. Indeed we saw more animals than we thought possible. Suricata took us deep into the wilderness and we were one with the nature and yet all the time, we felt safe. We saw a pride of Lions up close, a family of Cheetahs even closer and a whole herd of Elephants within touching distance and yet it all was natural and without disturbing their space or their lives. Of course, we saw more: including Giraffes, Zebras, Leopards, Hippos, Wildebeast and many more.
They were very helpful from the get go with clear, transparent communication about the itinnery, costs and what was required. We were picked up from the airport, taken to a modern hotel and informed of the next steps with the minimum of fuss. Everything was truly "Hakuna Matata"!
We went in a group and the human interactions made it even better. The staff were helpful and involved with every step; willing to cater to requests and always provided information. Onesmo, our driver and guide is experienced and knew the ins and outs of all the animals - what they do and how they live, even if some of the facts were surprising (did you know that elephants bury their dead and hold a wake over a week?). Salim, our chef cooked to perfection everyday: breakfast, lunch and dinner, over an open fire, with a variety of tastes. He even made an extra special Tanzanian dish purely on a whim. All in all, our expectations were blown out of the water and we fully enjoyed our whole experience.
Amazing safari!
Everything about this safari was excellent! I saw so many cool animals: lions, cheetahs, leopards, rhinos, elephants, zebras, hyenas, giraffes etc The guide was wonderful at spotting them. The food was also absolutely delicious throughout the trip: they have a cook who comes with us to prepare all our meals.
The logistics were also seamless: you can book for the safari to start on any day, they get you at the airport… It was all so well organized.
Highly recommend this safari.

The Guia Laizr very friendly and attentive. Benjamin the cook, cooks vice and is very cheerful and funny.

We will repeat

Overwhelming safari experience
Our safari exceeded all of our expectations.
Because we were in Moshi beforehand, the organizer, Hilary, arranged for us to be picked up there. When we arrived in Moshi, we were already expected by him. He explained everything about the safari to us, gave us a lot of helpful tips and also explained to us what else we could do in Arusha. The next morning we were picked up punctually by our guide, Florida. Florid, who was born in one of the national parks, really knew everything about the animals, the landscape, etc. We felt we were in very good hands. Our first stop was in Tarangire National Park - the landscape was breathtaking and of course the wildlife too. In the evening the food exceeded all our expectations. The next day we drove to the Serengeti. Florid managed to see elephants, giraffes and zebras in addition to leopards, lions and cheetahs. The atmosphere was just lovely! In the evening we all ate together again and exchanged ideas. The last stop was in the Ngorogoro Crater, there we saw hippos, lions up close, hyenas and many other animals. Florid had an answer to every question.
When we got back to Arusha, Hilary was waiting. He invited us to dinner and listened to all of our experiences. He was very interested in finding out how we experienced the safari.
We would book with Suricata Safaris again at any time and are still in contact with the guide. Very clear recommendation :-)

Three unforgettable and amazing days with Frederic
We went for a safari of 3 days and had the chance to be with Frederic, the best guide ever, and Salim, a succulent cooker. I can’t say anything wrong about our trip, except that it has an end. Frederic has so much knowledges, and always tries to make you live an amazing experience. What an incredible person. The organization of all the safari was perfect and I will recommend it with no hesitation! Thank you again to everyone that took part of our trip. My dream came true, and I will never forget it. Lena

Suricata Safari is what you are looking for!
Everything was just PERFECT and I recommend 300%!
From the pick up at the airport until the very last minute with them.
We did 5 days safari and we could not recommend them more, they were super flexible and adapt the safari to our times and needs.
Super nice people who know Arusha area perfectly. They care for you and your comfort the whole trip. They explain absolutely everything to you and they answer all your questions!
Special thanks to our amazing guide Mandela, who showed us everything with the biggest smile and our cooker, Action, who cooked us the most delicious meals everyday! You guys rock, thank you so much for everything. Asante Sana!
