Brilliant
We had an absolutely fantastic safari experience from start to finish. Everything was incredibly well organised, ran on time, and the whole trip felt seamless.
A special mention goes to Neema in the office, who was superb throughout. There was one small mix-up with our rooms, but it was sorted out quickly and professionally with no fuss.
Our guide, Damien, was outstanding and really made the holiday special. Nothing was ever too much trouble. If we wanted more safari, that was fine. If we wanted less safari and some time to relax by the pool, that was equally fine. He tailored the trip to what we wanted rather than following a rigid schedule.
There is naturally quite a lot of driving on a safari, but the journey was broken up with well-timed coffee and comfort stops, making it very enjoyable. Damien always went out of his way to make sure we were having a great time. He was fantastic with our children, always punctual, smart, and professional, and never pressured us into visiting shops or attractions we weren’t interested in. We really appreciated that, as sometimes on holidays you can feel like you’re being taken from one sales opportunity to another—but that never happened here.
The hotels were excellent, with friendly, attentive staff, and everything was ready for us whenever we arrived. Every part of the trip was well organised, allowing us to relax and enjoy the incredible national parks and wildlife.
To top it all off, we were lucky enough to see the Big Five, which made an unforgettable trip even more special.
We genuinely loved every minute of the experience and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this safari company to anyone considering a trip to Tanzania.
Elias is the best guide ever !!

An Exceptional First Safari Day in Tarangire with Steve
We had an excellent first day with Suricata Safaris, combining a visit to Tarangire National Park with an evening visit to a small Maasai village near Suricata Boma Lodge.
Our guide, Steve, was outstanding. He is genuinely passionate about wildlife, plants and the unique characteristics of the different species. He has an incredible eye for spotting animals, even from a great distance. Thanks to him, we were able to see a leopard far away, as well as two lionesses, many elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, several species of antelope, magnificent birds and eagles.
Steve is very knowledgeable and clearly enjoys sharing his passion. He was friendly, informative, attentive and always happy to answer our questions. His driving was also very careful, which made the whole experience both comfortable and reassuring.
The 4×4 vehicle was spacious and comfortable. The lunch provided during the safari was delicious, and drinking water was available throughout the day.
The visit to the Maasai village was a very interesting way to end the day. We had the opportunity to learn more about the daily life of several families, see their traditional homes and experience their dances and customs.
Finally, Suricata Boma Lodge, located near Lake Manyara, is beautiful, peaceful and very comfortable. The dinner was excellent and was the perfect conclusion to an unforgettable first day.
A wonderful first safari experience, very well organised and already full of memorable moments. A special thank you to Steve for his professionalism, kindness and passion.

Professional and friendly
Very reliable company. The guides Amiri and Izack were kind, friendly and professional. Me and my group of friends had a great time with them during our 4 day safari.
Unforgettable Safari experience
We had the best time on safari with Amiri and Izack! They know the parks inside out and somehow managed to help us spot every animal we dreamed of seeing—it really felt like a dream come true. On top of that, they’re super friendly, easygoing, and great fun to be around, which made every game drive even more enjoyable. We shared lots of laughs together and felt like we were exploring with friends. Thanks again for an unforgettable experience—we’d recommend them to anyone!

A professional and well-organized tour operator that delivers an unforgettable safari experience wit
We spent 4 days and 3 nights on safari with Amiri and Izack, and it was an amazing experience. They are both incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and also great company throughout the trip. Their passion and experience made every game drive exciting, and thanks to their skills we were able to see all the iconic animals, including some of the rarest ones to spot such as leopards and cheetahs, as well as lions, elephants, hippos, and buffaloes. They were always happy to answer our questions and made sure we had the best possible safari experience. We highly recommend Amiri and Izack to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari in Tanzania!
