Ben – Not Just a Safari Guide, But a Friend for Life
Our safari with Ben was simply unforgettable. From the very first minute, we felt incredibly comfortable and, above all, safe with him. He is an excellent and very responsible driver, allowing us to completely relax and enjoy the safari at all times.
His knowledge of the animals, nature, and Tanzania is incredible. No matter what question we had, Ben knew the answer and never failed to captivate us with his enthusiasm and knowledge. You can immediately tell how much experience and passion he brings to his work and his country.
But what makes Ben so special is the person behind the guide. With his warm, open, and genuine nature, he quickly became not just our safari guide, but a true friend. We laughed so much together, experienced so many adventures, and shared so many wonderful moments that we will never forget.
Ben made our safari truly special and played a major role in ensuring that this trip will remain unforgettable for us. We couldn't have wished for a better guide and would go on safari with him again in a heartbeat.
Thank you for everything, Ben! We already miss our time together and sincerely hope to see you again someday.

Amazing experience, plethora of animal diversity up close
We had an incredible experience with Suricata and our amazing guide Gerald. We booked a 4-day tour through Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire and were fortunate to observe a very diverse group up close including leopard, many lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffs, rhinos, hippos, etc. Gerald always made sure to get us great angles and very close whilst also sharing knowledge about each animal habits and curious facts. The accommodations provided for each night also stood out with good cuisine and much needed comfortable shower and bed.

Fantastic and flexible mobile camping safari operator - bespoke trip to Lower Zambezi and Kafue
We needed to arrange a bespoke safari trip due to very constrained dates, and after lots of research we chose Adventure Purists/Bundu Adventures. They were very helpful in discussing options and very flexible in agreeing what we wanted to do. Despite being a bespoke trip, it was a reasonable price (probably as it is a local operator without the overheads and markups of some of the international overland/small tour companies). We were a family of 4 in one of the extended landrover vehicles, so had lots of space and everyone had a window. Our guide was Mishek and cook was Monica - both were excellent and Monica was flexible with arrangements for breakfast and dinner to work around our game drives with Mishek. We linked in a 3 day canoe safari on the lower Zambezi, which was also excellent. We wanted as wild camping as we could get in Zambia, and Kafue certainly delivered that in a couple of camps. Having lived in Africa for many years when younger, and been to many game parks with many guides, I can say that Mishek is a good birder as well as a good general guide and game spotter. Overall, we would have no hesitation in going with this company again, and if planning another mobile camping trip in Zambia would definitely start with them.

A raw and untouched African wilderness experience
Watching a pride of lions gather over a buffalo kill in real-time was easily the highlight of this safari trip.
The sheer proximity to the animals while staying completely safe inside the 4x4 vehicles was impressive. The itinerary allowed plenty of balance between intense game drives and relaxing stops, including a scenic break on top of the massive granite kopjes to take in the open views.
Everything ran on schedule, from early morning pick-ups to full-day excursions across the plains. A well-managed operations team that delivers an authentic bush experience.

Amazing Safari experience!
We recently completed a 5-day safari with Suricata Safaris, and it was a very positive experience. Our guide, Pascal, was excellent, highly professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to ensuring we had a great trip. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to see all of the Big Five along with a wide variety of other wildlife. We opted for the mid-range package, and the accommodations were all very nice and comfortable. The food provided throughout the trip was also good. Overall, the tour was well-organized, and we felt very well taken care of. We would definitely recommend Suricata Safaris and Pascal for a well-managed safari experience

Excellent
It was a wonderful four days where I felt nature up close. I received a lot of energy from the animals. Thank you, Mr. Amos, for showing me the BIG5.
