Perfect Safari organisation that I would definitely choose again!
We did the 4 day safari (in tented lodges) and it couldn't have gone better. The route was Tarangire - Serengeti - Ngorongoro and we booked this as a group safari where we shared the car with 3 other nice people. Suricata Safaris organized everything really well: pickup service, briefing the night before, super tasty food, great accommodations, partly in the middle of the wilderness, a good and comfortable vehicle and a good schedule. We were well taken care of the whole time and also always very warmly welcomed in the accommodations.
Our driver guide was Lewice and he is a super great person. He knows so much about all kinds of animals and always drove to the right spots to find them. We saw all the big 5, some of them really close. It was a breathtaking and great experience. I would definitely recommend Suricata Safaris to anyone and go with them again!

Amazing first Tanzania experience
Our 4 day safari through Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater was fantastic. Our guide showed us the best spots to see all kinds of animals and always made sure that we were doing great. Our chef prepared the best meals along the way. The campsites were very adventurous and close to nature. At night we even got to spot some of the big five next to our tents. It was a great adventure and I would definitely book again with this company.

Unforgettable experience and great services. I highly recommend guide Flori
We booked 5 day lodge Safari with Suricata Safaris and our experience was truly outstanding!! Our guide/driver was Flori and he made our tour unforgettable. He made sure that we see all the possible animals and enjoy the trip to the fullest. He also answered all our questions and knew the parks really well. It was never boring with him. The lodges and food were perfect - it was an experience on its own. Thank you Suricata Safaris team and especially Flori for this unforgettable experience!

Great safari guide Flori and awesome five days safari tented lodge experience
We had Safari guide Flori which was really great. He was funny and he show us all the animals including Black Rhino, which is very rare. We enjoyed our five day stay in tented lodge and even have some days upgrade of the acommodation. It was awesome experience - the best parks for me was Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It is something you should experience in your lifetime. Btw all the safari guides we met looked friendly.

Great value local Tanzanian operator that provided an unforgettable safari experience
I live in Tanzania, have done numerous safaris, and wanted to pick a tour for my daughter and her friends that would be good value, and be from a reputable local operator. We could not have chosen better with Suricata. I wrote to 10 operators and what immediately impressed by about Hilary and Suricata was how responsive they were. Based on responses we got from the 10 operators, Suricata provided the best combination of price and apparent quality.
Come to the safari itself, which was two nights (Karatu and Ngorongoro) and three days (Tarangire, Ndutu/Serengeti and Crater). That was just as fantastic as we had hoped. Our guide - Floridi - was great company, very knowledgable, and a great driver. Floridi guided us to pretty much all we could have hoped to have seen, and we all loved the trip. Accommodation was first class.
All in all, we had a wonderful trip, and we are so grateful to the team at Suricata for making it such an enjoyable experience.
Thanks!!!! James and family (UK and TZ)

Amazing experience, reliable company, professional, knowlegeable and fun guides!
Our 5 day group Safari was a truly unforgettable experience. Being safari novices, my friend and I didn't really know what to expect, but Suricata Safaris exceeded all our expectations!! Hilary, the manager, patiently answered all our questions beforehand, and Ali gave us a warm welcome and briefing on arrival. A VERY special thanks goes out to Mandela, our amazing guide and driver on our safari. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, kind and funny. He made sure we spotted all the animals the parks had to offer, drove super safely and on top of that, was extremely nice company to be with. His laughter is contagious! We had very interesting chats over meals. Shoutout also to our fellow travelers who became something like a family after the 5 days travelling together. Suricata seems to care deeply about its employees, and they all seem to have a good rapport with one another. Needless to say, the food was extremely delicious and we seemed to be one of the few groups with hot meals each day, for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The lodges that Suricata works with are stunning and the people managing them were absolutely fantastic. If you are hesitating between many offers, look no further. Suricata is your way to go.

Friendly knowledgeable staff with a clear love and respect for nature
Everything about our experience with Suricata Safaris well and truly exceeded our expectations! Prior to departure, Hilary was attentive, answering all our questions no matter the hour and the airport transfers were smooth, comfortable and hassle-free allowing us to relax into our holiday and enjoy everything that the region has to offer. Accommodation wise, we were increasingly impressed in each location - the staff were inexhaustibly welcoming, the rooms were comfortable and luxuriously clean after a day on the dusty roads, and the food, which included farm-to-table culinary delights made us wish we were staying for longer!
As for the safari experience itself, we had a truly unforgettable time and most of the credit goes to our wonderful guide Mandela. Knowledgeable, respectful, fun and with a clear love for his work and nature, he calmly yet enthusiastically introduced us to the stunning landscape and took us to view ‘all’ the animals we’d hoped to see, along the way answering all our questions with ease and we had many an interesting chat over meals. Topping it off, the two girls and the couple we were on safari with were absolute gems who felt like family by the end of our five days.
All round, we had a phenomenal time and I cannot recommend Suricata Safaris more highly. Thank you to the whole team for making it such a wonderful experience!!
