Trip of a lifetime!!
It was such a pleasure to have everything arranged for us, down to the last detail. The lodges were wonderful, we especially enjoyed the bush camp for its adventure.
I don’t think we missed an animal species that lives in this region. We saw elephants giraffes, cheetahs, hyenas wart hogs rhinos hippos buffalo gazelles antelope and crocodiles… I am probably forgetting some. I’m sure. Birds too!
Melita , our guide was especially knowledgeable, helpful and an excellent driver.

Unforgettable safari
Our safari with Suricata Safaris was absolutely dreamlike! A huge thank you goes to our driver, Melita. He did a fantastic job and always gave us the best view of the animals – we saw so much! The food was also super delicious throughout. The accommodations were all good, and some of them were really beautiful. We highly recommend this tour and especially Melita as a guide!

An Unforgettable Adventure – Truly the Best Safari Experience! ❤️🔥
We did our safari in Tanzania with Serengeti Velvet Safaris, and we cannot stop smiling! From the very beginning, the communication and organization were absolutely flawless.
The company made sure every detail of our trip was perfectly tailored to our needs, and the overall level of service completely exceeded our expectations.
The absolute highlight of our trip was our amazing guide, Calvin. He is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate about the wildlife and culture of Tanzania. Calvin has eagle eyes—he managed to spot animals hidden deep in the bush that we would have completely missed, making sure we got the best possible photos. He patiently answered all our questions, shared fascinating facts about the ecosystem, and always made sure we were comfortable and safe in the 4x4 extended safari land cruiser.
The vehicle was top-notch, the pacing of the game drives was perfect, and every single day was a new, exciting adventure.
If you are planning a trip to Tanzania, look no further. We highly recommend Serengeti Velvet Safaris and specifically Calvin as a guide for an adventure of a lifetime. We will definitely be back!".

Honestly had the best experience with Suricata, but more importantly, Jordan our tour guide was amazing!!
He was so knowledgable about the animals , and managed to find the big 5 for us.
The accommodation was clean (we were camping) the food was amazing and the general organisation of the safari was incredible. We had the best time and would implore others to book with these guys as well

Excellent Safari
I had visted Arusha Tanzania in September 2026 and was looking for safari tour within my budget. Someone introduced to me to Mr Pius the ownwer of the the African Spponbill tour. Excellent guy. He proudced for me three itineraries. All the game parks were included in the itineraries with the choice of accommodation and photos. I picked up that suited to my budget. It was an excellent experience and Mr Pius was in touch with me all the time. The driver of my safari jeep was an exprienced person with four eyes to spot animals. Carefull driver and humble person.
I am not a professional photographer but photography is my bobby and I have attched only a couple of photos. I had some excellent shots f my life exprience. I shall recommend African Tour Spponbill Tour the safari owner Mr Pius and he will be the terminator of all your problems . Highly recomended by me. Thanks and all the best to African Spoonbill Tours and Safari.

Amazing experience
It was my first time visiting Kenya, and one of my biggest dreams was to see the Big Five.
Before the trip, I learned that seeing all of the Big Five is actually quite difficult, so I was really excited but also a little nervous about whether we would be able to see them all.
Thanks to our amazing guide, Peter, we were able to see all five!
Peter was constantly communicating with other guides over the radio to gather information, and he took us to see not only the Big Five but also many other rare and interesting animals.
It was especially difficult to find a leopard, but Peter never gave up and kept searching until we finally found one. That made the experience even more special!
I really felt that the animals you get to see and the overall experience can depend a lot on your guide. We were truly lucky to have Peter as our guide.
Thank you so much, Peter, for giving us such an unforgettable experience! It was definitely one of the best memories of our trip.
