Fabulous experience with both a great guide and cook and all the animals you could wish for!
Super nice experience. We booked a private tour (3 of us) for 5 full safari days - adventure tour.
We have been to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngororo and have seen all big 5 and many more animals.
The guide and cook were extremely friendly and provided us the perfect experience! Would definitely recommend Suricata - everything was perfectly organised.

Amazing Safari experience
We did a 5 day safari visiting Ngorongoro crater, Tarangire and Serengeti National Park. It was absolutely incredible and everything was great. Ezekiel was the perfect guide, extremely knowledgeable, he spotted so many animals from far away and drove very safely and carefully. Tito prepared delicious meals and we felt taken care of very well throughout the whole time. They were both also a very pleasant company and fun to be with! I can absolutely recommend Suricata Safaris and would do a trip with them again anytime!

Friendly and extremely helpful
It was my first time in SA and i wanted to experience the bush following a family wedding. I was really nervous as i am not really a traveller and was doing this part of the trip alone. When i found Rochelle at Safarilife, she put me at ease answering my billions of questions as i needed every detail before committing to the booking. Rochelle and Safarilife put the itinerary together for me so i knew what was going on and where i was going and I had the best weekend ever at the lodge.

The Kruger Safari Co. and Wayne in particular was just the very best choice I could have made!
Since my very first inquiry about the safari tour, Wayne was very communicative and accommodating to every one of our requests. He would reply to my e-mails within the hour, always answering to all my questions. It made me feel very well taken care of since the beginning.
The tour itself also went exactly as described. All parties, be it transfer to the park, the people that worked at the lodge, the safaris and the panorama tour, were all very professional and very friendly. We felt very welcomed and safe. And throughout the whole time, Wayne was there, on the other side of my e-mail or WhatsApp, keeping an eye on us, making sure that we were having a good time.
I couldn't be happier with my choice. I can only recommend The Kruger Safari Co. and if I'm ever back in South Africa, Wayne will be the first person I'll contact.
Thanks a lot Wayne! we had an amazing time in Kruger and all thanks to you.

Philipo at Kimgoni Safaris heard what we wanted and organised the perfect safari for us.
Kimgoni.
What a special trip. We feel so fortunate to have booked our safari with Philippo and Kimgoni.
Holidays like this take months/years to plan. They’re expensive and, as a result, nerve racking. You just want to get it right and feel you are in safe hands. Fortunately, we were.
A few core things will make or break your safari; where you go, where you stay and your guide. Philippo nailed all three. Our trip was seamless. All the parks we were advised to visit were brilliant and varied, and the route we took worked smoothly. The accommodation options Philippo recommended were all excellent. We had the pleasure of staying in beautiful lodges in the Serengeti and on top of The ngorongoro crater as well as the beautifully chic and minimal ‘Manyara’s Secret’ to bookend our journey to and from the parks. This is highly recommended as an acclimatisation/rest post-flight and reintegration/rest post-safari!
The final piece, the guide, is undoubtedly the most important one. Thanks to Kimgoni/Philippo, we were incredibly fortunate to have Ayubu showing us around. Ayubu was the perfect balance of casual, friendly and professional, instantly making us all feel at ease. He’s a great driver - much needed when racing through a rainy Serengeti, or on the lookout for another Leopard! He seemed to know exactly where everything was - we were fortunate to see three leopards in one morning, as well as pretty much every other animal you’d want to see whilst on safari. Ayubu was a fountain of knowledge and educated us all on the animals and on everyday life in Tanzania. He also had a great sense of humour and helped us maintain good vibes and momentum.
Finally, we have to note that we had a few issues on our end with making our original booking work. Sadly, we had to postpone our trip. We were and are truly grateful to Philippo for helping us reschedule, making sure all the pieces stayed in place and that we didn’t lose out financially. This extra help and security was especially valuable.
All in all, we had a 10/10 experience with Kimgoni and will be recommending it to anyone who will listen.

Super safari in Tanzania with Hassan
Hassan from Jema Safaris is a very knowledgeable guide and driver.
He organized an excellent safari for us visiting all the major parks in Tanzania.
We met a lot of animals and Hassan gave us a lot of interesting details about them.
Lodges and tented camps were really of a very high standard, the meals always very good.
Unforgettable experience.
Thanks to Hassan and all the team.
I recommend Jema Safaris for organizing an excellent safari in Tanzania.

RELIABLE AND AFFORDABLE TOUR OPERATOR
Awuor escapades delivered the promise they made to us. Our 7 day trip covering Masai mara, Amboseli, Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru was successful and we enjoyed every bit of it.
Henry planned everything and our guide, John delivered exactly what was planned. He was patient, a good listener and would consult us from time to time before making decisions. We saw all the Big 5 among other wild animals and birds. Our hotels were comfortable and foods were delicious, not to mention welcoming staff.
I highly recommend Awuor escapades!

Fantastic Safari Tour
I had a really fantastic safari tour through Crater Explorer. I was worried because it was the rainy season in April, but the weather was so nice. And the food and camping were all perfect and I will never forget the night spent with the animals. And everyone, including the guide and chef who toured with us, was so kind. I will definitely do a safari tour through Crater Explorer again next time.

A beautiful experience
We did a 5-day trip through Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. It was an incredible experience. Everything went smooth after we arrived at Kilimanjaro airport. Ezekiel, our driver, was super accommodating and a great companion for the trip. He put in alot of effort to show us all the great spots and everyday was filled with many wildlife sightings. The food was outstanding from our chef Tito. We are so happy to have had those two with us during the trip. Overall it was as smooth as one could have hoped for. Definitely recommend Suricata!
