Great experience! The organisation was very well and smoothly arranged with amazing memories
Amazing experience! The communication was always very clear and quick and transparent in response. During the safari the guide explains and knows so much, going from animals, to culture, to geography and volcanoes. Also the food was amazing! Always daily prepared, local food made by the crew.

I enjoyed my 4 safari days in february
Amazing experience, we have seen a lot of animals, including the big five. The team was great, thanks to our guide Izac and our chef Salim everything went well. We enjoyed the entire experience and met some really great people on the way !
We were in camp site accommodation and it was an amazing experience to sleep in the wilderness.
Thanks Suricata for this experience !

Next level experience, above and beyond!
My wife and I booked this trip after looking at hundreds of options. This one seemed unique. We were so impressed with every facet of this experience. Our guide Melita was just incredible and his intimate knowledge of Serengeti and the animal patterns gave us an edge on great wildlife encounters. But our biggest surprises were the cultural experiences and the people we were able to interact with. The assistant guide for the cultural experiences, Elias, was wonderful. Giving an authentic look into the tribes that he grew up in. We will never forget the beautiful people we met through him. And of course, the food was excellent and our chef made exquisite meals. Every time we peered at other people’s food, ours always seemed prepared with more care, attention and always felt special and fresh. These memorable experiences will stay with us for a lifetime.

The most wonderful experience
Incredable safari. We booked the mid range 5 day migration safari with the Ngorongoro crater.
The safari itself was an anbsolutely amazing experience. Melita was the most wonderful
guide and was able to find us secluded wildlife encounters which were tailored to our preferences. He was so knowledgeable about all the animals and the trip felt like we were in a nature documentary!
All of the accommodation was fantastic particularly Porini lodge in Ndutu.
The communication was fantastic throughout, tailoring parts of our trip to my personal requests.
Overall an amazing experience that I would highly recommend.

Stunning
I chose the 4-day safari experience in tend, which was truly thrilling. I was fascinated by everything, especially by the lion.
Thanks to our drivers, Damien and Adam, we were able to see all the Big 5 and many more animals.
My thanks go to all the Suricata staff: the hidden ones, the chef for the delicious food, Damien for his keen sense of smell and brilliant eyesight, and Adam for his cheerfulness and all the stories about the history and life of the animals of the savannah.

“A wildlife-first guide with deep knowledge of the land and a growing photographer’s eye.”
I had the absolute pleasure of being guided by Freddy with Suricata Safaris, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
Freddy is exceptionally knowledgeable — not only about every species we encountered, but also about the history of the land, the ecosystems, and the deeper story of the places we explored. His understanding goes far beyond identification; he brings context, meaning, and respect to every sighting.
What truly sets Freddy apart is his unwavering respect for wildlife. He is deeply conscious of the well-being of the animals and consistently puts them first, never chasing a checklist or quota of sightings. That ethical approach created more authentic, powerful encounters and made the entire experience feel grounded, responsible, and special.
As a photographer, I also appreciated his ever-evolving photographic perspective. Freddy has a strong and growing eye for imagery, understands positioning and light, and genuinely supports photographers in the field. I would strongly encourage people to keep an eye out for his photographs — his vision is only getting stronger.
I will be returning on a regular basis and will continue to have Freddy as my guide whenever possible.
A sincere thank you to Freddy and the entire Suricata Safaris team for delivering an outstanding and unforgettable photography expedition.
