Perfectly Organised Safari with an Outstanding Guide
We had an amazing safari experience, and Luther made it truly unforgettable.
He is friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. He always explained the plan clearly and made sure we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the entire trip.
His ability to spot animals is incredible – thanks to him we saw the Big Five, including a leopard and the rare black rhino, as well as cheetahs, lions, elephants and much more.
We also felt very safe at all times thanks to his excellent driving skills, even on challenging terrain.
I would personally like to thank him for making my birthday so special. Celebrating it surrounded by wildlife was an experience I will never forget.
We also want to compliment Suricata Safaris for the excellent organisation of the entire trip. Everything was perfectly arranged, including transport and the hotels before and after the safari.
If you get Luther as your guide, you are in the best hands. Highly recommended!

Melita is a kind and knowledgeable tour operator. He eventually helped us after for a nice dinner
There are some trips that feel special while you’re still in the middle of them, and this safari was definitely one of those. From the first day, everything had such a good rhythm: early starts, beautiful landscapes, exciting drives, relaxed evenings at camp, and plenty of moments where everyone was just looking around in silence because the scenery was so impressive.
Camping for 3 nights made the whole experience feel even more real and adventurous. It was simple in the best way, but still very well organized. The food was also a big surprise. Our chef was friendly, always smiling, and somehow managed to make breakfast, lunch, and dinner taste great every day.
Melita was exactly the kind of guide you want on a safari. He was calm, funny, easy to talk to, and clearly knew the area incredibly well. He didn’t just point things out; he explained what we were seeing and made the animals, tracks, and surroundings much more interesting. He also paid attention to the group and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves.
By the end of the 4 days, we had seen so much wildlife, including the Big 5, which was an unforgettable bonus. But what really made the trip stand out was the combination of Melita’s guiding, the relaxed camping atmosphere, and how smoothly everything was arranged.
A fantastic experience from beginning to end, and one I would happily recommend.

Trip of a lifetime with the most knowledgeable guide that exceeded all expectations
We booked a private 1 week safari tour with suricata safaris that took us through Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro. We came in with high expectations and somehow the experience still blew our minds. The tour is well organized, with great accommodations and delicious food everyday. Most of all, our guide Elias was so knowledgeable and answered every question we asked. His passion for animals was inspiring and made us appreciate every scenery and sighting. His experience in navigating each park also allowed us to see the big five and 81 lions throughout the trip! Definitely choose suricata safaris as your safaris operator and request for Elias for an unforgettable experience!

An unforgettable safari experience with Suricata Safaris
Our 5-day safari with Suricata Safaris was absolutely fantastic and exceeded all of our expectations. We visited Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, the Serengeti, and the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater. Every single day was filled with unforgettable moments and incredible wildlife sightings.
A very special thank you goes to our guide, Luther. With his experience, extensive knowledge, and warm personality, he made this trip truly exceptional. He had an incredible eye for spotting animals and ensured that we experienced many spectacular encounters. At the same time, he shared his passion and knowledge about Tanzania’s wildlife, nature, and culture with great enthusiasm.
The entire trip was perfectly organized. Everything ran smoothly, the accommodations were excellent, and the food was always fresh, varied, and delicious. Everyone at Suricata Safaris was friendly, helpful, and made sure that we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the journey.
You can truly feel the passion and professionalism behind Suricata Safaris. Thanks to the entire team, and especially to Luther, we created memories that will stay with us for a lifetime.
We highly recommend Suricata Safaris and would not hesitate to book another safari with them in the future. Thank you for this extraordinary experience!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Asante sana, Luther and the entire Suricata team!

Amazing safari experience!
We had an amazing 4-day safari tour and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. Anton guided us on the first day, while Melita was our guide from day two to four. Both were incredibly friendly, passionate, and very knowledgeable about the animals and the surrounding nature. They shared lots of interesting information and made the experience even more special.
A major highlight was seeing all of the Big Five, which exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious throughout the trip, and spending the nights under the stars was absolutely beautiful and unforgettable.
Overall, this was a fantastic safari experience that we would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area. Definitely worth 5 stars!

Amazing safari
Dream holiday made even better by the tour guide we had Luther!
Been planning this holiday over the past year and was more than we could have hoped for. We done 4 days group camping with a group with 4 other people.
Seeing the big five plus multiple other animals will be a memory for life.
Our guide Luther was very knowledgeable on both the animals and the land. Always checking in the group was okay and answered any questions we had. Very friendly and made the group feel at ease.
Recommend anyone to book a Suricata Safari!!

Amazing Safari Experience
From the minute we landed in Kilimanjaro the trip was perfect. Every transfer was on time with very polite and respectful guides, we got picked up from the airport and taken to our hotel in Arusha where we spent 2 nights.
We were then picked up by our tour guide Luther on the morning of our safari. Luther was absolutely brilliant and a credit to the company, he has a vast knowledge of all areas of the safari, the local culture, all of the animals and the Maasai tribe. Luther was polite, respectful and gave us the best chance at every opportunity to see the animals and get some great photos.
The food on the safari was brilliant, 3 cooked meals per day with some traditional African dishes served up. Prior to the safari the chef assigned to us checked each member of the group to see if we had any allergies religious requests or dietary requirements.
If you are booking a safari in Tanzania, definitely book it with Suricata and for the best experience ever, request your guide to be Luther.
