good communication, feeling safe and seeing a lot of animals
The experience was amazing- our guide lewis was very welcoming and we got to learn a lot during the safari about nature and of course the animals. Just as amazing was our cook salim who made every meal with love and care (especially his soups were delicious)
the accommodations during our safari were clean and such a good experience.
we also had a briefing the day before our safari where we got to ask questions, same for after the safari- we were able to share our experience and give feedback.

Fantastic week discovering Tanzania’s best safaris
Our safari experience with Suricata tours was exellent! We were very lucky to have Damian as our guide. He was very kind and patient with us. We appreciated his expertise in showing us the best views of so many different animals during our 7-day safari as well as highlighting various interesting facts about them. Thank you so much Damian!!
Moreover, the different lodges and camps booked for us were really amazing. The overall organisation of our trip was meticulous and well planned. Thank you very much Suricata Tours!

Amazing Experience I Will Cherish Forever!
I recently completed a 5-day safari with Suricata Safaris visiting Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park—and it was nothing short of extraordinary. Every day brought unforgettable moments, and the experience was made even more special thanks to our amazing guide, Damien, and our incredible chef, Jeremiah.
From the very beginning, Suricata impressed with their organization and hospitality. Even before arriving in Tanzania, I felt taken care of. Communication before the trip was smooth and informative, and the tour started right on schedule. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for game drives and also had charging ports, which was an unexpected bonus!
Our guide, Damien, was exceptional. His knowledge of wildlife and the parks was outstanding. He had an incredible eye for spotting animals—even from unbelievable distances—and was always patient, making sure everyone got the best views and photos. Thanks to him, we saw the Big Five, lions up close, elephants with their young, and even a rare rhino sighting in the Crater. Beyond the animals, Damien was just a joy to be around—funny, kind, and a true professional who always put our experience first.
Equally impressive was Jeremiah, our camp chef. Every meal he prepared was delicious and varied, from hearty breakfasts to satisfying dinners that felt like home-cooked feasts in the wild.
The itinerary itself was perfectly paced. Lake Manyara was a great starting point with its lush scenery and tree-climbing lions. The Serengeti was the absolute highlight—vast, wild, and teeming with life. Ngorongoro Crater offered dramatic landscapes and unique encounters in a more condensed setting. Tarangire, with its iconic baobabs and huge elephant herds, was the perfect way to close out the journey.
I was fortunate enough to be able to do a camping safari. Falling asleep to the sounds of wildlife was both humbling and magical and quite the experience!
This safari exceeded every expectation I had. If you’re considering Suricata Safaris, do not hesitate—ask for Damien and hope you get lucky enough to have Jeremiah in the kitchen. They are a dream team, and they made this adventure something I will remember for the rest of my life!

Best experience in Tansania
I went on a 2-day Safari in Tarangire and Ngorogoro Nationalpark and it was one of the best experiences in my whole life!
The Guides were very kind and friendly and had many knowledge about the Nationalparks and the animals and they loved to share their stories and informations.

Excellent Safari, outstanding guide
I just completed a 5-day Safari with my fiancee and it was awesome.
The booking and communication before the safari went mostly by mail. We were informed about everything we needed to know and all questions were answered. Every agreement was kept, everything was on time (maybe +15 min Tanzania buffer, hakuna matata!).
Our guide Melita was awesome. He knew everything about the animals, taught us and had a very good eye for where the animals hide. He saw things with his eyes that we couldn't even see with our binoculars. While in the safari parcs, the guides talk via radio and when meeting another car so everybody shares the animal sightings. With this, Melita's good eyes and some luck, we were able to see every animal we wanted and more. Additionally, Melita is a very good driver and has a good sense of humour.
The food was freshly cooked for breakfast and dinner and was good and plenty. We always had lunch in the Safari parcs, and it was cooked in the morning and taken in the car in a bag.
We booked the camping safari and the tents were always set up before we arrived at the camping Sites, so easy going for us.
All in all we had a very good time, asante sana Melita and we would recommend Suricata Safaris!

Perfect Honeymoon
We went for our honeymoon and everything was perfect. From the first day to the last, they were incredibly attentive to us, helping us with everything. The safari was spectacular; we saw all the animals up close, the Big Five, everything! The accommodations were also great, better than expected! And the food was just as great. If we go back, it will be with them, and we've already recommended them to our friends. They truly gave us a lot of security and confidence; we ended up living a dream.

It has been an unforgettable experience
It was an incredible experience. From day one, they were very involved in making sure we were as comfortable as possible.
The safari was perfect; we saw all kinds of animals, many of them up close and always respecting their space. We saw Africa's "Big Five" and were able to enjoy the best areas teeming with animals.

Unforgettable experience
An unforgettable 5-day safari!
The accommodations were incredible. One of them was in the Serengeti. We slept to the sounds of nature and the roars of lions in the background.
The food was excellent. The people who served us at the lodges were very friendly.
Our guides, Fredy on the first day and Felix on the next four, were wonderful. They were very kind and attentive, explaining everything about the animals, the plants, and any questions we had.
Felix did everything he could to ensure we could see all the animals, sharing all the necessary and interesting knowledge with us.
This was my first safari but thanks to Suricata Safaris I know it won’t be the last.
100% recommended!

Fantastic
Highly recommend the 4 day safari through the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. For an extra enjoyable experience, request Felix to be your guide if he’s available. He has fantastic experience and great knowledge about the wildlife and ensured we had close up encounters with the animals putting our safety above everything. Felix was great at communicating the daily schedules and was flexible to ensure our experience wasn’t rushed.
