It was very good organized, easy going 6 days safari
Company met us in Arusha airport. After night in a hotel we started our 6 days safari.
First day was Manayara, actually we didn't see flamingo there, but we saw hippo very close. After a night in good camping we went to Serengeti NP for 2 days. It was awesome there - many gnus and zebras. We also saw different cats - lions, cheetahs, leopards.
Every day we had excellent dinner and breakfast with hot meal made by our cook. And also we had lunchboxes in the car, but the lunchboxes were not so good.
The only problem, which upset us was that
the program of Suricata said "Day 5 : Ngorongoro Crater tour .
After breakfast, proceed directly to the Crater floor for a full day crater tour with picnic lunches. Later proceed back to tarangire in the evening"
But actually we had only half day safari in Ngorongoro, we were upset of this fact.
But it total everything is very good. We recommend this company!

Very good service and organization
I did a fantastic 4-day safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Suricata Safaris. Everything was well organized, service was very helpful and our guide was excellent.
Accommodation in Arusha and for the first night on the safari could have been better, which is why one star is missing (on the other hand, accommodation in Serengeti and Ngorongoro were excellent).

A good choice for a good price!
The safari was well organized and well explained. The guide knew the place well so we have seen an incredible number of animals in a short time. My best safari ever! Vegetarian food was available although I would have appreciated more variety in the food. Honest and nice staff who worked hard to make it the unforgettable experience it was.

Doing a Safari with Suricata was an amazing experience. They take care of everything so you can focu
Doing a Safari with Suricata was an amazing experience. They take care of everything so you can focus exclusively on the tour. Tha guide and tha cook man were so friendly and helpful. Me and my husband decided to do the camping and it was amazing. A great time to meet different people around the world and even see animals (elephant!!) on the camps. If you are not that adventure there are also lodge options with more structure. After doing a lot of research, because this is not a cheap trip, Suricata was the best cost-benefit agency.

Everything taken care of
Great experience with Aron as our driver. Everything was taken care of in terms of meals, lodging, transportation. Just had to show up and have a good time. Communication with the owner, Hillary, to adjust the schedule and coordinate was very fast and responsive
Aron was a hero for getting the car out of some pretty gnarly mud gullies! He did a great job of getting us to all the animals we wanted to see. Fun guy with a good sense of humor too.
Two things to improve:
- I would have loved if Aron was more talkative when it came to educating us about the animals and the region. Often I had to initiate questions to him.
- The group (including the guides) got a bout of food poisoning at the second lodge (Ngorongoro Tortilis Camp) due to some bad fish. Maybe no more seafood or other risky meats for the lodging meals…

Amazing safari experience
We had a very good 4days trip safari in tarangire , serengheti and ngorogoro.
We saw all the big five even 4 rhinoceros which is so rare !
We had Edgar ( driver ) always searching for us the best , explain a lot of thing and ask us if we are ok to wake-up earlier to be first to some spots
and Tito ( cooker ) made every meal different and so delicious always with the smile !
Edgar and Tito were so nice and amazing with us, treating so well and doing all they best to enjoy our trip !!!
We do choose to do camping tente and its was amazing the tente were big and perfectly waterproof. The experience was crazy we heard during night some hyena on the camp and buffalo. This experience will
Be always in my head
The company manage the tour perfectly even more than we was expected they took/drop us to the airport and book for us hotel arrival and departure.
Thank you so much Hilary , Ali , Edgar and Tito for this amazing trip

Nice route, nice guide, nice cook, improve cold and toilet
Nice Safari to do. The guide Kalulu and the cook Tito were insanly great at what they do. Our guide inform us really well, answer all our questions with high quality informations. Our cook was the best! I was in tent, the locations were nice, but the toilet/shower would need improvment. An additionnal blanket would be nice in february at two locations, it was cold at night. 8.5/10 for me.

Felt well taken care of - great experience
We had a really good experience going on a 3 days trip to Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We saw many animals, it was beautiful! The cook was excellent and took well care of us. We advice you going during low season before the rain season (march) , we went in February it was perfect, they weren’t too many tourists.
The first camping site was awesome. We were by ourselves. The second one was busier and the toilet not the best but we still had a good time meeting people and watching a beautiful sunset.
The people at Suricata are so nice and helpful! We advice it.

5 day private Safari
We just finished a 5 day private Safari. Planning with Hillary was seamless and we really appreciated his recommendation to spend 2 nights in the Serengeti instead of 1. We loved the Ang’ata camps in the Serengeti and Ngorongo. Max our driver was organized and with such long days and so much to see he always had us on schedule. We had a great time with Max, saw the big 5 and so much more…... thanks for the memories!
