Incredibly well organized, knowledgeable and great value for money
My girlfriend and I joined Suricata for a 3-day safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It was an absolutely unforgettable trip in which we saw more animals than we dared to imagine. We had the pleasure to join four others in a pop-up roof vehicle driven by our extremely skilled, knowledgeable and helpful guide Golden. This was complemented by the great lunches and diners that James prepared for us in increasingly beautiful locations :). The whole trip was flawlessly organized to maximize safari time so also thanks to Daniel and Vumbi for all the behind the scenes work! Moreover, it was very well-priced compared to other offers we received. Can’t wait to go on another adventure with Suricata

Great
Had amazing 5-day safari experience with Suricata Safaris. Our stays were comfortable and all our meals were delicious. Our guide, Rocky, made this experience interesting by sharing the history of parks and great information on flora and fauna. He kept us entertained with his jokes. We had great game-drives and saw lions, leopard, cheetah, elephants, rhinos, hippos and many more.
Thank you Rocky and Suricata Safaris.

Amazing 5 day safari—family of 4
Our family of four just returned from our private 5-day/4-night safari with Suricata Safaris. We had an amazing experience and highly recommend Suricata! Planning was easy and Hilary was very helpful and informative. Their prices were very reasonable, and the door-to-door service by Tawlib once we arrived at the airport made the trip easy. Our guide and driver, Ezekiel, was absolutely fantastic. We really appreciated that he taught us so much about the animals, birds and even the plants. He found every animal we wanted to see and could spot and identify them from so far away. It was easy to spend 5 days with such a kind and friendly person! He also arranged our itinerary so we could stay two nights in a row at the same lodge, which was great. We were upgraded to a stay at the wonderful Suricata Boma Lodge at Lake Menyara. It was amazing—beautiful resort-like villas with incredible views and unbelievably kind and welcoming staff (plus a pool and spa). We also stayed at two different Angata Tented Camps (Serengeti and Ngorongoro) which were very comfortable and welcoming and the staff made our youngest feel so special he didn’t want to leave! The food was terrific at every location and we were served a hot cooked lunch every day on safari. Suricata staff asked about our food allergies/restrictions and preferences and the food was so delicious! Overall Suricata Safaris was incredible and I highly recommend them!
Very good experience
We had an amazing experience in Tanzania of two days thanks to Suricata Safaris. Chuke helped us with everything we needed, and above that he took us on a tour in Arusha, which I strongly recommend if you have more time here. We enjoyed the Safari in Tarangire and Ngorongoro. The drivers (I wish I remembered both names, but I will mention Ellen here) took us to many places where we were able see most of the animals and the food was very good.

Excellent
Suricata Safaris surpassed expectations! Daniel's insightful guidance helped our adventure. We truly appreciated Freddy, a stellar driver and Tanzania's nature ambassador, shared profound wildlife insights. Tom's cooking added a flavorful touch. Together, they crafted an exceptional journey, leaving us with cherished memories and a deep appreciation for the wonders of Tanzania.

Amazing experience with a great guide/driver, very nice food and accommodation
It was an amazing experience! Our guide, Freddy, was so knowledgeable about everything related to the area and the animals and was always keen to provide us with all details. Great driving skills as well! Overall, maybe the best guide you can get. Also, the food provided to us was really nice. Last, Daniel helped a lot with his instructions before the beginning of the safari and was very kind and welcoming. 100% satisfied with Suricata Safaris.

Once in a lifetime experience!!
Once in a lifetime experience! I could not recommend this more highly! We saw more animals than I could have imagined (including all of the big 5, thousands of wildebeest, zebras and giraffes, and many many more!). On top of this, the landscape was phenomenal! Tarangire, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater are all so different so this 4 day tour is so worth it!
Rocky, our guide, was incredible! So enthusiastic and so knowledgeable. He really made the trip special for us. Our chef, Musa, was fantastic - delicious food everyday. And the briefing from Daniel before the tour was so helpful. It felt well organised from start to finish.
We did the camping safari and the campsites were amazing. You felt so in touch with nature (we even saw an elephant at our final campsite), but very safe because of the knowledge of the incredible staff. I’ll be recommending Suricata to everyone I know!!

The most memorable 4 days of my life
Just got back from the most memorable 4 days of my life, seeing all of the big 5 and millions more. I could not recommend Suricata Safaris and especially our amazing guide, Rocky more.
Suricata thought of everything and were super well organised. We were given a briefing the day before by Daniel who came to our hotel and explained how it was all going to work and what to do with our bags, what to bring, etc.
On the day, our guide Rocky met us and drove us in a really comfortable and well kitted out safari jeep. It had power onboard for charging devices and a fridge with cold water. We were initially worried the drives would feel long but there was so much to see along the way and Rocky provided loads of entertainment with facts and stories “remember, this is just the beginning” ;)
The camps we stayed at were surprisingly good. It really didn’t feel that budget at all and is a really nice way to feel more in touch with nature which is kind of the point. We even had a surprise visit from one of the big 5 at our camp.
I also need to thank our Chef, Musa for the amazing food. A lot of the other groups had pretty standard looking boxed lunches while we had pots of warm food with chicken, rice, veg, desert, drinks, all served on real plates with knives and forks. We felt pretty smug to say the least.
And when it comes to the animals, you couldn’t do a safari in a better place. We could not believe just how many animals you saw. The parks were huge as well so there was a really nice amount of peace where you were the only car there.
I would fully recommend Suricata tours to anyone and would like to say a huge thank you to Daniel, Musa and Rocky!

Amazing, caring and fun staff!
We absolutely loved the safari with Rocky! He knew everything about all the animals we saw and spotted so many animals we never would have discovered without him! He’s a really fun guy and an amazing driver
