Perfect communication & organization
We did a four day safari including Serengeti and NGorogoro Crater. The organization, the setting and the accommodations were very pleasant. We would recommend exactly this combination again. The Gight over professional and responded to our wishes!

Great experience
The safari with suricata was value for money. I had a great communication with Hilary who replied quickly to everything I asked. Edgar was our driver and he was fantastic with 22 years of experience and great knowledge of the animals and how to spot them. The camping sites were great but the toilets weren't well maintained by the government.

Good service all around
First safari and definitely a good experience. Took a 4 day, 3 night safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorogoro crater. 6 passengers.
Our driver was great. He gave good explanations, knew where to look and was fun to be around.
As for the food... wasn't expecting it to be this good!
Experience was great and worth another 5/5 rating.
Enjoy!

Fantastic safari experience
One of the best experiences in my life.
First, our guide was very friendly and passionate. We got to learn a lot of interesting facts about animals and local life.
Second, of course the animals! Lots of them, in different locations and from different perspectives. It was way beyond our expectations. We got to see the whole big five!
Next, the chef was incredible. I can't remember a single dish that was just "ok". Everything was delicious.
So, we're absolutely happy with this experience and would higly recommend Suricata Safaris to anyone who plans to go on safari trip.

Amazing experience in all aspects
It was great! We saw a lot of animals, many of them were very close so we could take nice pictures. Camping was good as well, we always had all the facilities needed for a good stay.
Special thanks to our guide who was great and helpful, and to the chef. The food was delicious, way better than we expected!
Definitely an experience we’d like to have again in the future.

Elias the tour guide was brilliant. Ask for him if you can.
The Tour was fabulous as Elias took us to places other guides didn’t go to and as a consequence we saw the over 40 different species of animals including the big five. Wonderful!

Amazing experience!
We just came back from our 5 day / 4 night camping safari with suricata and it was just amazing! Our guide was very knowledgable and got us to see a looot of animals up close (thanks James!), we got plenty of nice food (thanks to Moussa) and were blessed with a great group in our car (max 6 people at a time).
About the camping: The tents were always built up for us which was super convenient and you get a thin matress that is quite comfortable to sleep. Overall, dont expect luxury but we really enjoyed it and would choose camping again, its a really cool experience to sleep in the wild. Dont forget to pack a warm fleece jacket as on Ngorongoro crater it gets pretty cold during the night.
About the lenght of your trip: If you are short on time, I would advice to book the 4 day / 3 nights tour as it gives enough time to enjoy the most amazing sights (serengeti and ngorongoro) and is still not too rushed.
About suricata: We are beyond happy with the service we got! Obviously there are cultural differences that you might need to get used to while traveling in Tanzania but the guys at suricata really go the extramile to make sure you have a good time while you are in & around Arusha, not only on the safari but also in the city itself. This morning one of them even organized breakfast for us as the hotel had run out of food eventhough we were there on time. We really appreciated also that the night before & after the Safari in Arusha were included in the price (we were staying at the Senator), and also the airport transfers. Really a great value for money. Thank you so much again!

Amazing
Our safari was so perfectly organized and our tour guide Joseph was the best one ! We went on camping and had the chance to eat all of Tito’s food, which was a feast each day ! Communication before the safari was very well done too and 2 nights in Arusha (before and after the safari ) is included too, as well as transfert from airports. We loved everything about this company and we would go again with them !
