Gerard was an excellent guide and driver who made our Suricata Safari an unforgettable experience.
4/5

Our safari with Suricata Safari was made truly exceptional by our guide and driver, Gerard. He was knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and had an incredible ability to spot wildlife that we would never have seen on our own. He always made us feel safe, answered every question with enthusiasm, and ensured we had the best possible experience throughout the trip. Gerard is a real asset to the company, and I would highly recommend requesting him if you book a safari.

That said, there were two aspects of the overall experience that were disappointing. First, the company applies a 5% surcharge for card payments, which was not clearly communicated upfront and felt like an unnecessary hidden cost. Greater transparency about payment fees would improve the customer experience.

Second, the pre-safari stay at SG Hotels in Arusha did not meet the standard we expected. The hotel felt dated, and the rooms and overall hospitality environment were old and uncomfortable. Given the otherwise premium safari experience, choosing a better partner hotel would make a significant difference.

Another drawback was that the company mixed mid-range and camping guests in the same safari vehicle, resulting in unnecessary delays and logistical inefficiencies at nearly every stop as different accommodation drop-offs and pick-ups had to be coordinated.

Overall, the safari itself was fantastic thanks to Gerard, but improving payment transparency and upgrading the accommodation in Arusha would make the experience even better.

We had an absolutely fantastic safari in Tanzania! It was truly an unforgettable experience. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five, and our guide, Luther, was simply incredible. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and always made sure we had the best wildlife sightings. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommend!

5/5

I did a 3 day safari with my guide, Melita, and had a really great experience. Everything was well organized from start to finish, and Melita was kind, professional, and very knowledgeable. he always made sure we were in the best spots to see the animals. I would definitely recommend this experience and Melita as a guide. Thank you for such a memorable trip!
