Once in a lifetime experience!
The safari we had was a once in a lifetime experience that we will never forget.
Our drivers, Rocky and Vincent, had a lot of experience and always knew where we had to drive to see the animals. This made us see a lot of lions, elephants and even a black rhino in N'Gorongoro. They knew a lot about the animals, flora and fauna and always had a good answer to our questions. Both of them were also very very concerned of our wellbeings and wanted to make us feel good and happy.
Then there was Ben, the secret star of the group, who made us food for brakefast, lunch and dinner everyday. If you want to taste really good lokal cuisine, then he is the man. It was better than every restaurant I have been to in Tanzania/Zanzibar before.
The tents and camping places where basic but totally fine. Especially in N'Gorongoro we had an awesome spot with a nice view and also some guests that joined us in the night (1 elephant and some buffalos). A lot of times the showers were cold but thats just how it is, when you sleep in the middle of serengeti or a Crater, so dont expect too much! Sometimes it can get a little freezing, so dont forget to bring something warm (at least a light jacket).
So all in all I totally would recommend this tour to anyone and would be happy to do it again in the future!

Amazing Experience with Suricata Safari
Best experience ever! Suricata is a company that organizes your safari from the beginning to the end . They take care of every detail, so you can have the most amazing experience throughout all time safari, from the person who sends you the quote, the driver, the guide, the chef. The food was excellent as if you were in a high class restaurant, the transportation from your arrival to Arusha. In short, everything was excellent.
Thank you Suricata for this wonderful experience.

The best Safari you can get :)
Thanks to Suricata Safaris we had a beautiful experience. The staff is just the best, from the reservation to the end of the Safari.
Everything is very organized and well-planned, and the service is really excellent, I truly don't have anything to say.
I recommend it without hesitation.

Great and easy-going organisation with super service and people for amazing experiences!
We just came back from a 4-days Safari (camping) tour with Suricata Safaris. It was an amazing trips. We had a great tour guide and driver Max, who brought us to the best spots to see all the animals we wanted. We also always felt save in his car. And then we had the excellent cook Tito, who impressed us every day with 3 delicious dishes (high quality, also continental food) even in the middle of Tanzanias National Parks. We didnt expect such good food on a camping trip.
We saw a lot of animals in all the parks and had some great sceneries. We also thought that the tents (matress and sleeping bag) were nice and the campgrounds had some really good locations (especially DikDik in Serengeti and Simba in Ngorongoro Crater).
We can in general very much recommend Suricata Safaris. The organisation and communication with Hilary and the staff was always fast and easy and everything, including transfers to hotel or airport, was well organized.
Thanks to all of you again for this great experience!
PS: Just for some, who are not use to it, there will be a person welcoming you on the day before your trip (if possible) and also collect the rest of the money (in cash) even if this is in the middle of the night. First we were surpirsed but then everything was good.

Amazing 9-day safari experience in Tanzania
We had the most amazing time on our 9- day safari with Suricata safaris. The owner of Suricata, Hilary, was super responsive from start to finish, and helped us organise an itinerary that was perfect for what we wanted. We had previously received quotes from a few different companies, and Suricata overall offered the best value-for-money, while also being the most responsive tour operator. We also met Hilary in person at the start of the safari, and he talked us through all the details.
When our plans had to change slightly because one of us got sick, Suricata was really helpful and switched our accommodation without us needing to pay anything extra. They were so helpful about the whole thing!
Special thanks to Frederick, our wonderful guide for making our trip so amazing. He was incredibly knowledgable, friendly and fun to be around. We learned a huge amount from him about the local wildlife, plants and Tanzania more broadly. He was also exceptionally good at spotting animals. We ended up seeing more than 80 lions
