Unforgettable Safari Experience with Suracrati Tours
Our family of five had an absolutely unforgettable 4-day safari with Suracrati Tours in Tanzania. From start to finish, the experience was incredibly well-organised and deeply enriching.
Our guide, Isaac, was fantastic, kind, humble, and full of knowledge about both the wildlife and the cultural history of Tanzania. His passion and thoughtful approach made the trip even more special. Thanks to him, we saw far more animals than we ever expected, including some rare sightings, a true dream come true.
We were also fortunate to have Tito as our chef. The meals he prepared, especially lunch and dinner, were consistently delicious, usually a hearty mix of rice or pasta with fresh meat and vegetables. Breakfasts were a bit more basic (fried eggs and pancakes daily), but still appreciated given the remote setting.
There was only one minor hiccup worth mentioning, not directly the fault of the tour company, but helpful for future travellers to be aware of. At the start of our trip, a briefer at our hotel recommended we tip €15–€20 per person, per night, noting that the driver (Isaac) would receive 70% and the chef (Tito) 30%. When we returned to camp at the end, we gave the full amount to both together, assuming they would divide it. However, Tito believed it was all for him, leading to a slightly awkward moment. We later gave Isaac extra, as he genuinely deserved the full tip we had intended for him. He remained kind and gracious throughout, but we felt bad for the misunderstanding.
Despite this small issue, we could not recommend Suracrati Tours more highly. The experience exceeded our expectations in every way, and we are so grateful to Isaac and Tito for making it so memorable. Just a note to future travelers, make sure to clarify and handle tip distribution yourselves to avoid confusion

Just book this one! Stop scrolling!
Wow! This experience surpassed all expectations. I will NEVER forget these 4 days, thanks to our group-mates, our chef Tito, and our OUTSTANDING guide Rocky!
I would really recommend Suricata Safaris as compared to others. For example, we would stop for lunches, and many people had lunch boxes, but not us!! Each lunch was a full course meal. Same with the breakfasts and dinners! Shout out to our chef, Tito! The food really surpassed all expectations.
I feel that we also got very lucky with our guide, Rocky, too. He was SUPER knowledgeable about everything. I myself a high school biology teacher really appreciated being able to ask him any question about animal behavior, ecosystems, and even the flora of the park. He always had a positive attitude and a great sense of humor and really made the whole experience a true joy.
Some campsites were better than others, but Suricata provided heavy duty tents, warm sleeping bags, sleeping pads, and pillows. ALL park entrances are included in the price, which made everything seamless and easy. The vehicle was comfy and even had a cooler if you wanted a couple of beverages for the road.
Again, I really cannot recommend Suricata enough. They are not the biggest company, but I can tell they are very thoughtful and purposeful about what they do. They sent someone to our hotel to give us a personal briefing before the safari and then were adamant about feedback after the safari was done.

Amazing, professional and responsive Safari
Due to a cancelled flight from Nairobi, we had to change the connecting flight to Arusha to Kilimanjaro airport. On very short notice, Jackson, took care of our request to pick us up at the different airport and two hours later and managed the changed pickup without any additional costs.
Daniel’s briefing prior to the Safari was comprehensive and efficient.
With Alphonse as our guide, we have been extremely lucky. He might be one of the most knowledgeable and responsible guides one can get for a Safari in Tanzania. He cares about nature conservation and the animals in an exemplary way. He is a brilliant driver and responded very well to our wishes to stop for taking pictures, when it was possible. When we ran out of time, he explained why we had to rush and we got to see the big 5 and many more on our 5 days medium budget Safari.
The Safari lodges and the bush camps were excellent. The food was always good and sometimes very good. Even one of our daughters, a vegetarian, found always something to eat.
If I would have to hint at a downside, the SG Premium hotel in Arusha is really outdated, several things in the room broken or not complete and it was not clean at all. We certainly will not stay there again.

Amazing tour with an excellent guide. Would recommend!
The tour experience in Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Manyara Lake we’re an amazing experience. A special thanks to our guide Amur, who was helpful in every aspect of the tour and provided us with great information about the animals and the parks. 10/10 experience.

Excellent experience, with high professionalism!
We had a beautiful 4-day safari with Suricata and couldn’t have been happier with how everything was organized. From the moment we arrived, Mr. T (Twalbu) gave us the warmest welcome and made us feel right at home. Everyone from the team was extremely friendly, helpful and always in a good mood.
Mr. T was always available for anything we needed — whether it was related to the safari or just small things along the way.
Our guide Lewis was absolutely fantastic. He’s incredibly knowledgeable — we came prepared with a lot of questions, but he had detailed answers for everything without exception. It was impressive how much he knew about the wildlife, the parks and the local culture. Thanks to him, we learned so much and had so many unforgettable moments.
The accommodations were also very good, especially the first night at Suricata Boma Lodge — it was even better than we expected.
If there’s one thing we would change, it’s that we only booked 4 days. Next time we would definitely go for at least 5 days and ideally 7 days to have more time in the Serengeti and maybe even witness the famous river crossings.
Thank you so much to the whole Suricata team — we’ll definitely be back!
