Choose Chez
Absolutely stunning experience with lots of life moments. Highly recommended! Our guide Chez is incredible, I have absolutely no idea how he managed to have that GPS in his brain which allowed him to find his way in a place like Serengeti where there is nothing but dust and trees. He was also really nice not to get too close to the animals, which I really appreciate as I don’t want to disturb them. I was a bit scared when we first arrived at the campsite, panicking slightly over how to go to toilet at night but Chez introduced me to a staff and dragged my tent next to theirs so I could get help really close and any time. The only downside is the slow response at the booking stage, and the fact that they regrouped us on the last day when I was already used to our vehicle and everything, that was a bit of a chaos, but other than that, everything’s cool. The hotel in Arusha, Safari Homes, is also super welcoming. The food of the safari could also have been better, we ate pretty much the same thing every day and no chance to try real local food

Excellent
Our tour guide Jesse was very informative about all species we encountered and described to us why and when they would migrate. Jesse made sure we were able to see the big 5 on our 4 day safari by communicating with other tour guides when animals were spotted and took us to their location.

Enjoy the Safari with our group.
3-day Safari camping group tour.
Serengeti, Ngorongoro.
The experience of the tour is fantastic.
I love 3point for Suricata Safari company.
1, professional guide
2. reasonable price
3. quick communication for reservation
The guide and driver is Jordan.He nice guy and good driving skills and have a lot of knowledge of African animal. We can see the all of Big5, many birds, and many animals. Lion hunting is the most impressive for me.
I think the quotation is not high for my case.
I contacted 10hours before the tour, but Linda support me very well.
And the camp house and meal is good.
It is not excellent but acceptable.

Best safari!!
We had the best safari ever! Ecky, our tour guide, was professional and went out of his way to make us comfortabele and see all the animals! He also had a lot of knowledge about everything, so every question was being answered. Also our chef James made the best meals for us.
Everything was well organized. From being picked up and dropped of at the hotel in Arusha to the meals and the time planning.
The whole trip felt like a dream and we didn't have to think or worry about a single thing. Everyone working on the tours are very kind and caring!

Ecky is the real king of the Savanna
We had a real great time with our guide and chef in the Serengeti and Ngorogoro.
The guide knows all the right spots and has a lot of information, also because he’s a local. He’s working really hard to make you feel comfortable and makes it his mission to at least see the big 5. So we did. And we saw Pumba as a bonus. We also visited a Maasai village.
The chef makes good, fresh and healthy food. There is something for everyone and the menu changes every time. We want tot thank the organisation, especially guide Ecky and chef James.

Ecky is very friendly but also really qualified and professional for his job.
Good communication and reactivity, we had nothing to worry about. The experience of the trip was really worth the money (and the food also, thanks James). If you want to do a safari in Tanzania, don’t hesitate to book yours with this agency !

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If You Get Ecky as Your Safari
Guide, You’re Lucky! 🦁🐘
My wife, Rivka Manali, and I just finished an incredible 4-day safari in Tanzania, visiting Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and other beautiful places. It was truly one of the most amazing experiences of our lives!
And a huge part of what made this adventure so special was our fantastic guide, Ecky!
From the very beginning, Ecky was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly patient, friendly, professional, and full of knowledge. He took the time to answer every question we had, explain everything about the animals and nature, and make sure we were comfortable, happy, and enjoying every moment.
But what impressed us the most was his unbelievable ability to understand the animals and predict their movements. He always seemed to know exactly where to go, where the action was about to happen, and where we would have the best chance to see something special.
And thanks to Ecky, we witnessed something truly unforgettable: a group of lionesses hunting and taking down a zebra right in front of our eyes! 🦁🦓
It was a breathtaking wildlife moment that many people never get to experience, even after several safaris. We were incredibly lucky to witness it, and it was all thanks to Ecky’s experience, instincts, and incredible understanding of wildlife.
Throughout the entire trip, everything was perfectly organized, always on time, and handled with care. Ecky always made sure we knew where we were, what we were seeing, and what to expect next.
We enjoyed every single moment, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better guide or a better safari experience.
We recommend Ecky with all our hearts! If you’re lucky enough to have him as your guide, you’re in for an unforgettable adventure.
Thank you, Ecky, for the memories, the laughter, the patience, and the incredible experience. We will never forget it!
With love and appreciation,
Miro & Rivka Manali ❤️🇹🇿

Great tour operator, super organised, and knowledgeable on safari
Just had a great 3-day camping safari, saw all the big five - close up, but also so much of the rest too. Jordan, our guide, was knowledgeable on such a wide range including the birds of prey.
Food was fantastic throughout, with plenty for every meal breakfast-lunch-dinner.

Fabulous 3 day safari
Just had a fabulous 3 days with Jordan and chef James.
Jordan navigated the Serengeti and Ngorongoro conservation areas with expert knowledge. He identified animals and birds making the experience even more enjoyable. When Jordan realised we were also interested in the birds he made a point of stopping and showing us them.
We saw more then I could have hoped, all of the “big 5”, but for me most exciting were the hippos and giraffes and many beautiful birds of prey.
Is like to thank James too for the lovely food - breakfast, lunch and dinner. There was always plenty to eat and drink.
Everyone at the campsites were so welcoming and friendly.
A beautiful safari I will never forget.
