great guide, good accomodation, not vegetarian friendly
Let me start with the bad. For vegetarian or vegan people, there is hardly any choice given except fruits for breakfast. They don't understand the concept of a balanced vegetarian meal. It was actually a non veg meal plan without the non veg items.This is despite their confirmation that they provide vegetarian options.
Another issue was with salt. Despite asking for low salt food it was more than even normal levels. I had to take extra medication to control my BP.
Now the good. The guide for us was very friendly and helpful. We had a very good experience despite having a totally rainy day. African safari is something one should not miss.
The accommodations provided were very good and comfortable : we took the tented camps instead of the more budget friendly campsites option.
Tarangire is really very good. The problem with Serengeti is its vast expanse and the time taken to reach or even move within. Often the most interesting sights happen before we reach the park. We also had the bad fortune of a rainy Serengeti. So that may have taken some sheen out of the experience. Ngorogoro is also very beautiful and a great place to go.
Overall the great guide we had made up for the problems with food.

Dream come true!
Truly the trip of a lifetime!!! My mom and I booked a mother/daughter safari for her first trip to Africa, and we can’t say enough good things about Suricata. Glory helped tremendously with the booking process, with prompt replies and patience with my endless questions. Everything went smoothly from the moment we landed in Arusha and were greeted by Daniel, who made us feel welcome immediately. The lodges were spectacular (Boma Lodge has the kindest, most helpful staff ever) and the food was top notch (shoutout to Tom from Boma Lodge - five stars!) And a special thanks to Max, the best guide ever! He is such a kind soul with a wealth of knowledge about the parks and wildlife. We trusted him 100000% to get us everywhere safely and on time, and he always knows how to find the best views of wildlife! Our trip would not have been the same without his humor, organization, patience, and vast experience with guiding safaris. He also happens to be the best driver I’ve ever seen, which is so important while navigating muddy Serengeti roads. We were blown away by the hospitality and comfort we experienced throughout our four day trip and would certainly recommend this company to anyone looking for a safe and enjoyable safari.

Went above and beyond to make our experience out of this world!
The safari was simply amazing and the accomodation was great. Rocky, our tour guide went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and was great at spotting animals. We spotted 4/5 big five and it was all thanks to Rocky! Highly recommend Suricata.

The driver went beyond his way to make this an amazing experience for us and succeeded.
We definitely can recommend this and want to do another safari with you guys.

6 days Machame route + 3 days safari, amazing experience
We had a wonderful trip organized by Genius Patrick and his team. Patrick organized the 6 day Machame route - Kilimanjaro climb and a 3 day safari for us. We already had a lot of contact before our trip. When checking our wishes for the trip and answering any questions, Patrick was always available for us via WhatsApp. Good, fast communication. Upon arrival in Tanzania, Patrick and Godfrey picked us up from the airport. They gave us a briefing at the hotel. The next day we went on a trip. The team was very helpful and the guides have an in depth knowledge of the mountain. We felt very safe and very well guided. The equipment and food were excellent. We had a great experience! After Kilimanjaro we started our three-day safari. The safari was organized by Patrick and the guide was Baraka. He has a very in depth knowledge of the parks and the animals and very good driving skills. We had a hot lunch and the hotel (Kudu lodge) was also very nice. During the safari, Patrick regularly checked via WhatsApp to see how things were going. Overall we were extremely happy with the trip and would recommend Genius to all our friends!

Experience of a lifetime: excellent food, clean tents and private toilet, one family
Experience of a lifetime to climb Kilimanjaro (6 day Machame) with the team of Patrick. Excellent food during the whole trip, super clean tents and private toilet. Perfect guidance to adapt to the altitude. But most importantly each member of the team makes you feel like you are part of their family.
I would recommend everyone to book a trip to climb Kilimanjaro with Patrick. Our trip also included 3 day safari which was arranged great with Genius Kilimanjaro as well.

Excellent tour!
The perfect safari tour!
The tour guide Amiri was kind and gave me a lot of information. He tried to show many animals inside the Serengeti National Park. Our chef Dito's food was very delicious. I ate too much.
I had fun watching many animals such as buffaloes, lions, elephants, giraffes, and so on for three nights and four days.

Breath taking
Best safari company
Sacred Widerness is the only company to consider if you visit Tanzania! Everything exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Lucas, was excellent! He is extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, environment, and culture of this wonderful country. The company recommended camps were all unique and exceptional. The lunches were amazing with local foods.People were jealous when they saw our set-up. I can't say enough about our time in Tanzania and am so thankful that we chose Sacred Wilderness Expedition. Request Lucas as your guide for sure!

Excellent punctual service!
I was quite skeptic initially because i had a bad pick and drop for another activity. But these guys were really good and 100% on time. I am going to get my future bookings directly with these guys for sure. Highly recommended.
