An adventure of a lifetime!
We recently went on a safari covering Tarangire National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti, and the entire experience completely exceeded our expectations. From the very first moment to the end, everything was organised smoothly and on time.
Our guide, Ernest, was absolutely fantastic. He was incredibly warm, friendly, patient, and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible wildlife sightings across all three locations. Beyond wildlife sightings, he shared deep insights about local conservation efforts and the ecosystem, giving us a true understanding of the environment and the delicate balance of nature in each unique park.
Special thanks to William and Saimon who handled all the arrangement and coordination flawlessly. The accommodations were comfortable, and the food provided throughout the journey was good. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a meaningful, well-arranged, and memorable safari.

Lion King Adventures: An Exceptional Tour Operator and Unforgettable Safari Experience
8-Day Spectacular Migration Serengeti Safari
From start to finish, our experience with Lion King Adventures was exceptional. Every aspect of the journey was well organised, and the entire team, from administration to transport staff, worked hard to ensure everything ran smoothly.
A special thank you goes to our guide, Clement, who made this safari truly unforgettable. His professionalism, extensive knowledge, attention to detail, and genuine care turned every day into an exciting and rewarding adventure. As two Australians visiting Tanzania, we completely fell in love with the Serengeti, and much of that was thanks to Clement's passion and dedication.
From the beginning of the planning process through to the final day of our safari, Lion King Adventures exceeded our expectations. Clement's driving skills were outstanding, and the safari vehicle was always impeccably presented. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he consistently went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience.
This was truly the trip of a lifetime and one of the most memorable holidays we have ever had. We cannot speak highly enough of Clement and his commitment to making every moment special. We thank him from the bottom of our hearts, along with the entire Lion King Adventures team, for creating such incredible memories that we will cherish forever.
Highly recommended!

Jordan, the savana’s King!
All the staff who took care of us were truly cordial, kind, and attentive. The kitchen team was always mindful of every need—what they do is truly admirable. The rangers were wonderful, doing everything possible to make us feel safe and comfortable. With Jordan, I felt safe on every road; it's amazing how he can navigate without a GPS! In three days, he managed to show us all of the Big Five and explained everything to us in Italian—compliments to him! A truly kind, friendly person with so much patience. I'm going home with an unforgettable memory of this experience, all thanks to Suricata Safaris (and a little bit extra for Jordan 👏🏻)

Jordan was very kind and friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the animals. Thanks to him, we
Africa is not just a place you visit — it’s something you feel. 🌍🤎
It’s the endless silence of the savannah, the sounds of wildlife in the distance, sunsets that don’t seem real, and that feeling of being so small in front of something so immense.
It’s dust, wild nature, eyes filled with wonder, and moments that no photograph could ever truly capture.
I came here thinking I was going to see Africa.
I’m leaving feeling like Africa has left something in me. 🦁✨

Professional and reliable company.
My 15-day safari went very well. The organization was professional, the communication during the preparation was great. I wrote to several companies in letters about what I wanted. In the end, I liked theirs the best. During the safari, I got pretty much what I originally asked for. Ken was a very good driver and guide. He had an incredible sense of spotting animals and mostly helped me take good photos. He did a lot to make the safari a success.
Among the accommodations, there were some that I thought were not even at the lower end of the mid-range (Taphe Guest Resort, Little Amanya Camp). But that wasn't really important to me.
I highly recommend this company to anyone who wants to go on a safari in Kenya.

Steve made our Tanzania safari the trip of a lifetime
I just came back from a 9-day safari in northern Tanzania with my mom, and I can't write this review without starting with Steve, our guide. Before the trip I was mostly worried about logistics: long drives, my mom's comfort, whether we'd actually get to see the animals we were dreaming about. Within the first hour with Steve, all of that worry was gone.
Let me start with the animals, because that is why most people are here. Steve was on a mission from day one. He didn't just drive us to the usual spots and wait. He read the landscape, listened to the radio, talked to other guides, and kept pushing to find what we wanted to see. And he delivered. We saw a cheetah up close, calm and unbothered, exactly the way you imagine it. We found a leopard, which every guide will tell you is the hardest of the big cats to spot, and Steve found it for us. We even got to see rhinos, which so many people leave Tanzania without ever spotting, and Steve made it happen. And the highlight of the whole trip: we watched wildebeest crossing the Mara River during the migration. Steve knew where to wait and when to be patient, and thanks to that we got to witness something my mom and I will talk about for the rest of our lives.
What impressed me just as much was how safe and professional he was the entire time. He drove carefully on rough roads, never took unnecessary risks to get closer to an animal, and always explained what was happening around us so we felt in control and never nervous. As someone traveling with my mother, this mattered a lot. She felt completely at ease with him, which is not a small thing over nine days of dusty roads and early mornings.
Steve also has a kind of knowledge that goes far beyond pointing and naming. He explained animal behavior, the ecosystem, the history of the parks, and answered every question we threw at him (and we asked a lot). He was patient, funny, warm, and genuinely seemed to enjoy sharing his country with us. By the end of the trip it felt less like having a guide and more like traveling with a friend who happens to know everything about the bush.
Small things stood out too: he checked in on us constantly, made sure we had water and snacks, adjusted the schedule when we needed a slower morning, and always found the best spot for lunch with a view. Nothing was ever a problem for him.
A big thank you also to Suricata Safaris, the company behind this trip. Everything was organized smoothly from start to finish, the itinerary was thoughtfully planned, and pairing us with a guide like Steve says a lot about the people who run it.
If you are planning a safari in Tanzania, book with Suricata Safaris, and if you have the chance to request Steve as your guide, do it. My mom and I got exactly the trip we hoped for, and honestly more than that. Thank you, Steve, for nine unforgettable days.
