Extraordinary 6-day Tour!!
The 6-day tour with Suricata has more than exceeded our expectations. The booking was uncomplicated via WhatsApp, everything worked as planned and everyone was very reliable. Our guide Vince was super on it and could tell us a lot about Tanzania, the Serengeti, the people and the animals through his long experience. Since we had booked a private tour, we could decide very flexibly when to go etc. and Vince took all our wishes into account. In addition, it was nice to have someone younger as a guide, who nevertheless has 10 years of experience but is very easy going.
Not only did we see all the animals (Big 5 and more), we were also able to get very very close to them and discover animals that you would not have seen that way.
The accommodations were great and so was the food, especially the lunch (we always had hot, freshly cooked food for lunch while many other tour providers only had snacks for lunch).
I would definitely recommend Suricata to anyone who would like to experience an individual, exciting and also relaxed tour!
Thank you very much :-)

Best experience ever
We were in a short safari trip, only two days, but the driver succeeded to share with us his whole experience. We saw so many animals and all the experience was amazing!

Best safari experience
The experience was unique. The deivers were professionally and very helpful. They were knowledgeable about the savana. The car was comfortable and the tent experience was really interesting. Good food amd good time. Hakuna Matata!
Excellent!
The guys are extremely professional and trustworthy. My only regret is that I went only for a 2 days safari with them and not 3 or 4. The guides were wonderful, the cars clean and comfy, the game drive was amazing and they made sure we saw as many animals as possible. They provided us with good insights and information about the environment and the animals which made the experience even more amazing. I will never forget this experience and I definitely recommend that if you go for a safari you do it with Suricata.
P.S I love the name of the company. :))

Awesome experience with professional people
Such a great experience with Suricata Safari. It was 4 amazing days. We went to Tarangire, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater. Thanks to our great guide Floridi, we completed the big five and much more. He was always the first seeing animals and made us live a dream experience. And the cherry on the top, we had a cook during our Safari, Tito made us some meals better than in a restaurant!

An unforgettable experience with Suricata!
We went on a 4-day safari and it was mind-blowing. Our guide, the meals, the activities all exceeded our expectations. It was emotionally very intense, in a very positive way for me.
We went to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro and got lucky: we managed to see the big five and many animals we were not expecting to see! This is mostly thanks to our guide, who knew the parks and animals very well and did his very best to take us to the right places at the right time. Also a very nice and funny man.
The food was definitely not what we expected: we got healthy and delicious meals at every stage. Thanks to the cook!
All in all: do not hesitate to travel with Suricata: you will not be disappointed!

Amazing safari experience
We are so happy with our Safari! Humphrey, our contact, gave us all the infos we needed to plan our trip, and proposed different trips according to our budget. The day before the Safari he met with us and walked us through the program. We choose a 4 days and 3 nights trip and we saw everything we wanted to see and much more. The jeep was super convenient, even for 6 people, and the sleeping equipments (tents, sleeping bags, etc.) were perfect. We were lucky with our guide (Floridi) who knows everything about the animals and is always ready to answer all our questions. Also our chef (Salim) was very nice, provided us with delicious meals and took great care of us. Suricata is really a great Safari company for young people on a budget. We recommend it warmly !

4 days camping Safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro)
On our honeymoon we decided to travel to Tanzania and go on a Safari with Suricata Safaris.
Suricata Safaris made sure we were comfortable, including transport to and from the airport, the initial briefing on arrival at the lodge, tents and sleeping bags for camping and even bottles of water always available in the jeep.
We had a great driver and guide, Ezequiel, who knew a lot of fun facts about the animals and thanks to him we were able to see even the rarest animals like the rhinoceros.
First we visited Tarangire National Park where we had the opportunity to see many elephants in the mud, as well as zebras, giraffes and a lioness…
Then we went to Serengeti passing through Ngorongoro. We loved the plains as far as the eye can see, we saw cheetahs, leopards, hippos, and lots of lions…
On the last day we were in Ngorongoro Crater, the day started very early with a totally different landscape, full of buffaloes, a shy rhinoceros and many lions.
Our cook, Tito, always served us good, hot food.
We always feel safe.
We recommend Suricata Safaris because, in addition to providing us with a unique and unforgettable experience, it offers good value for money.

A once in a lifetime experience at a competitive price!!
With Suricata Safaris we had a once in a lifetime experience, at an affordable price.
We started by check-in at the Arusha lodge, when we met our super friendly guide.
The day after we departed to Tarangire National Park where we saw elephants, lions, zebras, among many other animals. They were all so close to our car!! We then had lunch at an amazing viewpoint.
The food was great through out the safari thanks to a dedicated chef that prepared and explained all our meals.
By nightfall we set up camp on a secure location (with wifi!!) and rested after a few drinks with other group members.
In the second day we headed out to Serengeti, on a wonderful car trip where we saw plenty of animals, different climates and got to know different tribes, including the renowned Maasai.
The Serengeti National Park was incredible! Its truly a world natural treasure! With its almost infinite plains and vast biodiversity. We saw hundreds of thousands of gazelles (not exaggerating), lions, giraffes, elephants, monkeys, zebras, cheetas, antilopes, among so much more… It was truly unforgettable.
A word of appreciation to our driver and guide, Ezequiel, that led us to the best spots to appreciate the wildlife and capture some of the most amazing photos that I ever taken!
In the third and final day, we went to Ngorogoro Carter. Another amazing experience on this massive volcanic crater, rich with wildlife and breath-taking landscape. We could see the final animal of the “big five”, the rhinoceros!!
Overall, I highly recommend experiencing a safari with Suricata Safaris! It was an amazing voyage, with friendly and helpful guides, and at a very competitive price point!

Fantastic 3 Day Serengeti/Ngorongoro Tour Safari
We just finished a 3 day Serengeti/Ngorongoro Safari with Suricata and it was a fantastic experience!
Our guide Rocky was exceptional, very personable and well prepared and informative. He is what made the tour as good as it was. Salim our chef made sure that our dietary requirements weren't a problem (2 vegans) and ensured that we had fresh hot lunches each day.
Thanks to Hilary and the team, their organisation was great and nothing was a problem for us. We had accomodation sorted and transfers to/from different airports after our tour had finished.
This was our 2nd safari in 5 weeks so we had high expectations but Suricata definitely delivered. I wish we had time to do a longer tour with them.
Don't hesitate to book with this company - just do it, you won't be disappointed!
