Great trip if you want to see the big 5 - especially recommend 4 day safari including Tarangire.
Great trip. Especially recommend the 4 day safari. In this safari you will see Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. All three of them are completely different. Tarangire will show you the baobab trees, large herds of elephants, and a large variety of other animals. We especially loved the Serengeti, where we were able to see a jaguar and cheetah from super close! Ngorongoro is a must, where you see a super high concentration of wildlife and you have a good chance of seeing rhino's. Our guide Elias was the best, being knowledgeable about all the animals, able to spot animals very easily, friendly, willing to answer all your questions, and high on pace! Tito made the best, diverse food, also including pizza and fries in some meals. We liked everything of this trip, highly recommended.

Fantastic and well worth it
Our driver Max was wonderful and the food Salem cooked was incredible.
We saw tons of animals (Big 5 minus cheetah)! The tents were nice, sleeping bags clean, and the sleep pads were comfy. I have a sensitive back so I brought an extra sleeping pad and stacked it on top and slept great. The staff set up all the tents and camping materials so everything was easy.
The camp grounds were well equipped, second one had a cafe, and all had showers. Definitely wasn’t worried about not choosing tents over more expensive lodging.
Bring small snacks since you meals are a little spaced out, but when you eat they feed you very well.

Fantastic
I chose Suricata because I had read some good reviews and despite my initial skepticism I can confirm after 5 days of safari that it was a unique experience. I chose to sleep in the tents because I wanted to try this experience and I was hoping to see some animals in the field and I did. The night I slept around ngorongoro crater I saw lots of zebras, buffaloes and impalas. They were lying there. Close to me.
I arrived on the 31st evening at the kilimangjaro airport. There was Mr T. who took us to the hotel in Arusha and the next morning our ranger, Fred arrived and took us to the camp for resupply. We saw Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Central Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Our chef Saleem has always cooked exceptional dishes for us. Every day for lunch and dinner there were 4 dishes. Rice, meat or fish, legumes and vegetables. Plus dessert or fruit. African cuisine is outstanding. All good and in large quantities. We all saw the animals multiple times. Elephants, zebras, impalas, waterbuks, monkeys, servals, warthogs, giraffes, baboons, hyenas, buffaloes, impalas, leopards, flamingos, lions, and even rhinos. A unique experience that I would do again 100 times. Thanks Meerkat

100% recommended from beginning to the end
The Safari has been an amazing experience. We were able to share it with a very nice group. Our driver and cook were available for questions and helping us to live the experience to the fullest. We also shared good moments at the public campings.

Amazing
We had a great experience with Suricata Safaris. Before the safari started they picked us up in the airport, offered a hotel in the centre of Arusha and we could visit the city with a guide, who showed us the main spots and recommended a great restaurant for eating. During the safari we could meet very cool and nice people, and our driver Flori always looked for the best spots to see the animals, we saw a lion less than 2mt away!! Musa, the cook, did his job in perfection and we could enjoy all the typical dishes while in the camp!
The worst part of the adventure was the cold shower we had to take every day in the camp to take all the dust from the sabana out, but it was really worth it!
100% real adventure, 1000% recommended!

Highly recommended!
My wife and I wanted to do a safari tour as soon as we were in Moshi/Arusha. We then organized suricata fond and everything with them just a day before our trip!
Great experience: the transport back and forth from Moshi/Arusha worked, we were well looked after by the guide and saw the Big 5 and more!!! We traveled with a great group and there was no shortage of food!
Suricata is recommended!!!

Incredible experience
I went on a two-day Safari trip with Suricata safaris and I am still amazed by how great it was. The morning of the first day, their driver picked me up at the airport and made sure I was on time to join the group. We went to the Ngorongoro conservation area first, which is a breathtaking place. The guide was very knowledgeable and kind, was telling us facts about animals and plants that we saw. In the car there were snacks and water. The lunch was delicious as well. At the end of the first day the guide drove me to the lodge, which was one of the most beautiful lodges I've ever been to. The next day we continued to Tarangire national park and saw even more animals. At the end of that day the guide drove me to the hotel where I left my bag and then they arranged transport for me to get to the accomodation I booked. Overall it was absolutely worth the money spent. The communication was also efficient, the team answered my emails with questions promptly and were helpful. Thank you Suricata safari for this incredible experience.
