The best.
The safari was unforgettable. Everything worked perfectly, and the safari was extremely well organized. We were able to see all the animals of the Big Five and felt incredibly happy and overwhelmed. Our guide, Melita, put a tremendous amount of effort into everything and always considered the needs of all participants. He was not only very friendly but also always cheerful and knew every location. He did everything possible to make our time truly unforgettable.
A special praise also goes to the chef, "Chef," and his team, who cooked fresh and incredibly delicious meals for us every day. We are completely satisfied. The service was a solid 10/10.

Great Safari
The Tour with Suricata was our first Safari experience aswell as our first time in Africa.
I can fully recommend this 4 day safari. Everything was taken care of: pickup and dropoff at the hotel, tents and foods during the whole trip etc.
We got really lucky with the timing in the parks since we were able to see all the big 5 and many more animals.
Our guide Amouru was able to answer all our questions and self speaking very friendly.
The food prepared fresh every day left nothing to complain fromy side, even some wine was available for dinner.

Living the wilderness through the eyes of who loves and cares nature and people
We were a group of 14 people plus myself, and the tour was simply wonderful—enchanting in every single detail. The care for every aspect was immense, and we felt welcomed, supported, and encouraged not only to explore ourselves but also to dive into the natural environment with full trust.
The rhythm was relaxing yet filled with a great sense of adventure and adrenaline. Every member of the team was a person of great heart—knowledgeable, professional, and generous in sharing both their inner richness and their deep understanding of the wilderness.
They truly lit up in us the desire to return.

Luther was the best! Knowledgeable, funny and such a nice guy
It was a great experience. So much attention to detail and everyone was so nice throughout. From being picked up at the airport by Jonny, to being briefed on our itinerary by Mr T, to being led by our great guide Luther; 10 out of 10.
Luther was an amazing guide, so knowledgeable and helpful. Definitely recommending this to anyone thinking of doing this.

Best Tour Company and Damien is the best guide!
Great communication! Awesome experience and the tour from stays to food was excellent. Our tour guide was Damien, hands down of all the tours we have had (Egypt, Mexico, and other countries) he is the very best guide we’ve had. So request him if you can. It’s never guaranteed you will see everything one your list as the animals are wild in their expansive environment but we saw every single animal and everything on our bucket list and had some out of this world encounters. The company also ensured we have great accommodations. Side note, your experience will be better if you realize the animals are wild on milesxx of a nurture preserve (it’s not a zoo and your guide has no control of the animals). Also keep in mind that your accommodation is in Tanzania not a big metropolitan city. Lastly be respectful of the culture you are visiting.
A Once-in-a-Lifetime 5-Day Safari – Perfectly Organized from Start to Finish!
We just returned from a 5-day safari in Tanzania with Suricata Safaris, and it was absolutely the trip of a lifetime. From start to finish, the organization was flawless – everything ran smoothly, on time, and with great attention to detail. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing, which allowed us to fully enjoy the adventure.
Transportation was also perfectly arranged. We were picked up from the airport on arrival and dropped off again after the safari, making the whole experience seamless. On top of that, someone from Suricata Safaris met us both before and after the trip to make sure everything was clear, well prepared, and that we were taken care of at every step. This personal touch made us feel safe, welcomed, and truly valued as guests.
Our accommodations were fantastic throughout the trip. Suricata Lodge was cozy and welcoming, the Golden Crescent Hotel offered great comfort and service, and the camp at Siringati was an unforgettable highlight – falling asleep to the sounds of nature and waking up surrounded by the wilderness is something we’ll never forget. Each place had its own charm and added something special to the journey.
A huge part of what made this safari so memorable was our driver and guide, Elias. He was outstanding in every way – knowledgeable, passionate, and with an incredible ability to spot animals from miles away. Thanks to him, we were able to see the Big Five and so many other amazing wildlife moments. Beyond his skills as a guide, he was also kind, patient, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure we had the best possible experience. Elias truly elevated the entire trip.
The itinerary was very well thought out, with a perfect balance of game drives, breathtaking landscapes, and time to relax. From the endless plains of the Serengeti to the awe-inspiring Ngorongoro Crater, every day brought something new and magical.
Overall, this 5-day safari with Suricata Safaris exceeded our expectations in every possible way. The organization was spot on, the transportation seamless, the accommodations excellent, and Elias made the journey truly unforgettable. On top of that, the trip was worth every penny – the quality of service and experiences we had far outweighed the cost. If you’re considering a safari in Tanzania, I cannot recommend Suricata Safaris highly enough – they created memories that will stay in our hearts forever.
