Excellent
We had a great time seeing loads of animals. From arriving in Arusha to leaving everything has been so easy.
Our guide Lewis was excellent, knowledgeable about the animals as well as cultural and geological history. James our cook did wonders providing plenty of food. Water was no issue.
We felt safe at all the camps which were lovely, especially in the Serengeti.
There was no mention of going to any of the tourist traps that are so common.
Fully recommend.

They do everything to give you the whole safari experience you want
We booked the 5-day camping safari with Suricata Safari and it truly exceeded all expectations! Our journey took us through Tarangire National Park, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and Lake Manyara – each park offering something unique and breathtaking. We saw an incredible variety of animals, including 4 of the Big Five – absolutely unforgettable!
A huge thank you to our guide Damien, who impressed us with his experience, knowledge, and eye for spotting wildlife. His passion made the trip even more special. Also, a big shoutout to Salim and his kitchen team – the meals were delicious and always prepared with care.
All in all, these were fantastic days full of unforgettable landscapes, wildlife sightings, and smooth organization. Highly recommended!

Impressive 5 days
We had the pleasure of going on a 5-day camping safari with Suricata Safari – an experience we’ll never forget! Our itinerary included Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and Lake Manyara. Each destination was stunning in its own way, and we were lucky enough to spot four of the Big Five among countless other animals.
Our guide Damien was outstanding – knowledgeable, experienced, and truly passionate about wildlife. Thanks to him, we had so many memorable encounters. We were also well taken care of by Salim and his team, who made sure we were well-fed with tasty and hearty meals.
Overall, an amazing adventure with fantastic scenery, wonderful wildlife, and great people. We can fully recommend Suricata Safari!

Nice and organized tour
The safari tour was great. You don't think about anything except the safari, the guys take you there themselves. We had guides Kisamo and Simba, good guys. Kisamo told great stories with humor. Joel took care of our accommodation, a warm and pleasant person.
Surikata Safari is a good company and you can safely book tours with them.

Passionate, Professional and with an eye for details.
Incredible Safari experience.
Suricata Team has been very professional since the get going, helping us in selecting the best package for us. Spot on organisation and flawless execution.
Furthermore our guide, Damian, has done a super job; very professional and fluent in English as well as really skilled driver, making the ride super smooth in spotting all the big 5 (yes, we made it!).
Accommodation very cozy and always sustainable (eco-lodges) complementing greatly the safari experience. Food always delicious and freshly cooked, prioritising always raw ingredients and not pre-packed/cooked.
I would definitely re-do it and recommend it to anyone interested into a safari

Absolutely perfect customer service and meeting expectations. They know their stuff!
The staff from the moment of the booking starting with Ayman helped us understand what we needed to do on the Safari and was able to curate the perfect package to meet our expectations and budget. The speed of response gave us confidence in the selection we made, and they did not disappoint. The accommodation across all of the sites was impeccable and a special mention to our guide Rocky without whom we would not have had the memorable experience that we had. He went out of his way to ensure that he met the entire groups needs which isn’t easy to do with a diverse group and went above and beyond even over the Safari to make sure that simple things like the meals we enjoyed and things that we wanted to buy were addressed. He was a very safe drive which is also a huge plus. He was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about all of the sites and the animals we saw and made sure that all of the game drives were exciting and rewarding. We thoroughly recommend Rocky as a guide and think everybody should have a Safari experience in Tanzania with him. if we were to ever do a Safari again there’s no doubt that we would only do it with Suricata and Rocky.

An amazing team. A big thank you to all and especially Freddy 🫶
An incredible experience from the first pick up at the airport to the way back.
We visited the 3 parks and we were lucky to see lots of animals and especially the big five.
The landscapes, the views, the camps and the hospitality of all staff was amazing.
But the most amazing part was our guide Freddy from Suricata Safaris. Such a nice person, with a very thorough knowledge of the fauna and flora that he shared with all us with passion. Always available to answer all our questions on everything. Moreover, he is very respectful of the places we visited and also of the animals, he managed to let us see everything but always by not interfering in the life of the parks and animals. We deeply recommend him.
A very nice thing as well were the meals. We were travelling with kids and everything was delicious. Moreover the picnics with real glasses and plates. We really appreciated that.
Thanks a lot to Freddy and Suricata Safaris for their kindness and professionalism

No words… Excellent
I have no words… what we have just experienced was a dream and Suricata Safaris was exceptional from the beginning to the end.
The first contact with Grace was very helpful, she helped us on choosing our Safari and was always available for any question we had.
Suricata Safari picked us from the airport to the hotel and the evening Daniel made us a briefing for the safari. He was very nice and answered to all our questions.
The day after, Frederik (Freddy), our guide, came to pick up us from the hotel and the safari could begin.
All was exceptional, Lodge, Camp tents, the picnic every day was a delicious lunch (not a lunch box) but a real meal with meat, rice and vegetables.
And last but not least, Freddy was the best guide we could ever had… he knew everything, always answering to our questions, very respectful to the animals we saw and such a nice person.
If you are looking for a safari, I highly recommend Suricata safari and Freddy as a guide you will not be disappointed …. They made our dream came true.
