Best Safari Experience in Tanzania
In two days, we saw and identified 32 different types of animals. Our eagle eyed guide Micheal was the best part of the trip, he never missed an animal laying in the bush, he flipped through his bird book to give us all of the information to the questions we asked, but most importantly he got us halfway across Tanzania and back safely. Compared to the other drivers on the road, Michael was calm, cool, collected, and extremely safe and professional. We have spent a total of 10 days in the country and we have never had better food than with Suricata. We are so glad that we got to join a group of fellow travelers to enjoy the Safari with! Met some great people! Also, last minute we were informed that we got upgraded from tent camping to a double room with a shower, for no charge, because it rained the morning prior. After just hiking Kilimanjaro for 6 days, without beds and showers, we were extremely Grateful. Our briefing with Dennis and our Debriefing with Daniel were both very informative and professional. Both of them brought smiles to our faces and made us feel safe and welcome. If you’re coming to Tanzania for Safari, do not use any other company!!!!!

The Best Safari Experience!
Big thanks for an amazing Safari experience in Serengeti and Ngorongoro! The entire trip was memorable. We were able to spot the BIG 5 and it was just fantastic thinking that we had only 3 days tour. I just want to say a BIG THANKS to Baraka who was really the best tour guide! He was very professional and he explained to us about every single wild animal that we saw in the park. He shared us the books during the trip and also promised that he will do all he can to let us spot the Big Five, which he did! He is a wonderful person, with a lot of passion and dedication to what he is doing. Big thanks to Chef Samson that cooked for us delicious food over the 3 days of Safari. The camping option was great with all the facilities. The wildlife in the parks is simply wonderful to see! I would definitely recommend Suricata Safari to everyone.
Thank you.

I am glad Inhave chosen this company!
💯 reccomend! Our 4 day midrange tour was amazing! Tour guide Lewis did his best and we saw all The big 5 game Africas animals! Our chef Lucas was not only making the food but also helping in seeing wild animals! He has a good eye :) Accommodations where we spend our nights were super good: big, comfortable beds, cozy dinners and time next the fire.
Daniel arranged everything from the start to the last minute when driving back to airpor. What else you could wish for?!?
PS - all the lunch we had at picnic areas during the safari were hot, restaurant made dishes (chicken, beef, vegetable curry).

Damian safari = best safari
Amazing trip and experience, we had the pleasure of having Damian (Maurcie) and Lucas as private chef, the organizer and briefing was given to us by Daniel. Even if we didn’t pick up the car group we found one of the best group, full of laughter, positive energy, helpful and reasonable people. Everything was on point, the transfer from the airport to the meeting place, the transfer to the hotel and to the airport, the car transport in the safari. We choose the lounge accommodation and it was mirific, we had beautiful scenery before the sunset, amazing view over the Serengeti plains, hot shower (research 5 minute showers), great food, decent selection of beverages (they are extra cost and not included in the trip).
In the safari we managed to see the BIG FIVE, leopard and rhino were the trickiest, however Damian managed to get us the live pictures. I would recommend booking the trips with him - the amount of knowledge and experience of this man are out of this world, not to mention the driving skills in those condition (we got rain, mud and fog). He was always very polite, tried his best to answer all our questions even those not related to the safari.

Living your dream in 3 days in Tanzania
I SIMPLY LOVED EVERY BIT of this new family we bonded with. Damien, our guide was A MA ZING. The most considerate, humble, safe to the bone and wonderful guide ever. He explained every bit of the way, he kept us safe ALL THE TIME, he drove in swamps, mud, rains, ever imaginable condition. Despite the rain or heavy roads, he managed to show us the most amazing time. I wish I had bought 5 days only to stay with him and my time. I really had tears in my eyes at the end. On the other end, Lucas, the cook, was one of a kind. The food was exquisite, warm, on time and punctual. He set the table humbly, offered us a brief presentation of the traditional dishes. He was verg kind and polite. All in all, I am able to say that this was by far THE BEST SAFARI I have ever been in (We have been in Kenya before 3 days) and not onlye the landscapes and game drive and variety of beauty and nature made this small vacation a wonder, but also these guys : I bow down in respect for such wonderful kind human beings, Damien and Lucas

once-in-a-lifetime adventure
We just completed an incredible wildlife adventure in Tanzania, thanks to this outstanding safari agency. From the start, we were impressed by the professional and attentive Mr. T, whose enthusiasm and meticulous planning set the perfect tone for our entire journey.
Our driver and guide, Livingston, was not only handsome but also incredibly experienced. His deep knowledge of wildlife and the natural environment was eye-opening. Under his guidance, we were fortunate to see all the animals we had dreamed of, truly fulfilling our safari aspirations.
A delightful surprise was our chef, James, whose culinary skills were simply amazing! Each meal was a delicious adventure, allowing us to enjoy gourmet food while experiencing the thrill of the wild.
In addition to the traditional safari experience, we also participated in an Arusha city tour. We felt very safe throughout and gained a deep appreciation for this fascinating city. This urban excursion added a rich cultural dimension to our trip.
Overall, this journey exceeded all our expectations. From wildlife viewing to gastronomic delights, from professional service to urban exploration, every detail was perfect. I highly recommend this safari agency to anyone looking to experience the natural wonders of Tanzania. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure!

Incredible!
A huge thank you to Suricata Safaris for this unforgettable experience! Everything was perfect. The support is excellent and the teams are attentive. We started our stay (at our request during the briefing the day before our safari) with a visit to the city of Arusha with a guide and then we did 5 days of safari with another guide. Our visit to Arusha was tailor-made according to our wishes. We then discovered Tarangire Park, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara during the safari. We had the chance to observe the wildlife very closely thanks to our great guide Mandela who knows the region perfectly. We stayed in campsites which allows us to be in the heart of nature and see wild animals such as zebras for example next to our tent at night. The meals are plentiful and varied. Chef James followed us throughout the safari to prepare excellent meals for us. I highly recommend Suricata Safaris! Thank you to the whole team!!
