Fantastic Communication, and Excellent Execution!
We had a wonderful safari in Kruger, where we were fortunate enough to see all of the Big 5! The accommodation was exactly like the photos and the staff were all lovely, making us all feel very safe in the "tents". Our guide was also very knowledgable and kept everyone engaged throughout the game drives. Thank you so much to Clyde and the TailorMade Team for making this trip so memorable and exceeding our expectations.

Great operator who was very accommodating when changing plans
Cuckoo safaris was very reliable and communicated swiftly when there were any updates/ changes to schedule. Great service and everything was arranged prior to arrival. They were also amazing with accommodating last minute changes when we decided to add Victoria falls into our itinerary. Tour guides were amazing and we saw a lot of the Big 5 (3/5) while on this tour.

Great Experience
The communication for pick up was great. My tour guide was very knowledgeable about Johannesburg and told me lots ok the way to the Lion safari. The safari itself was very good, and saw many animals in their natural habitat.

Suricata Safari Made Our Dream Safari Come True!
We just came back from an incredible 4-day safari with Suricata Safari, and without a doubt, this has been the best experience of our lives so far. My wife and I had the chance to visit Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, and the Ngorongoro Crater — three breathtaking locations full of wildlife and stunning landscapes.
Our guide, Damian, truly made the experience unforgettable. With over 8 years of experience, his knowledge, passion, and instinct for finding the best wildlife spots were simply outstanding. Thanks to him, we had the rare opportunity to see the Big Five — something we heard is quite difficult to achieve, especially in such a short time. Damian always went the extra mile, sometimes literally, to make sure we had the best views and the closest encounters with the animals. His ability to position the vehicle for perfect photo and video opportunities was a real bonus — we came home with some once-in-a-lifetime shots!
Another special mention goes to our chef, James, who made every meal a highlight in itself. Suricata Safari does something unique: they bring a chef along to prepare fresh and delicious Tanzanian meals every day. This was a huge advantage compared to other tour companies we saw, who didn't offer anything close to the quality or authenticity of the food we enjoyed. James introduced us to so many wonderful dishes — every meal felt like a celebration.
A few tips if you’re considering Suricata Safari:
Trust your guide and ask lots of questions — Damian’s knowledge added so much to every sighting.
Bring a good camera with a zoom lens; you’ll be so close to the animals, you’ll want to capture it all.
Don’t worry about the food — Suricata has you covered better than you can imagine!
Pack warm clothes for early morning drives, especially in the Ngorongoro area — it can get surprisingly chilly.
Overall, Suricata Safari exceeded all our expectations. From personalized service to unforgettable wildlife encounters, everything was handled with professionalism and heart. We would recommend them 100% to anyone dreaming of an authentic, well-organized, and truly magical safari experience.
Thank you again to Damian, James, and the entire Suricata Safari team for giving us memories we will cherish for a lifetime!

It was a great experience!
I participated alone as a woman.
The day before, John came to the hotel to explain the camp.
We were asked to prepare a tip of $15 per day (we gave it to the driver on the last day, but it seems that it is not compulsory).
There were three members in the group: myself and two Westerners on honeymoon. These two stayed at the lodge, so I was the only one at the camp, but chef James was with me at night and always took care of me.
He was always very kind to me, even though I am not good at English, and it was very reassuring.
At the camp, they will set up a small tent for you.
Sleeping bags, cushions, and mattresses are provided.
At the campsite, only cold water showers are available in the Serengeti, but hot water showers are available elsewhere.
The campsite in Ngorongoro is very cold, so warm clothes are essential, but the scenery was amazing.
During the safari, in addition to the BIG5, we were able to see cheetahs and hippos up close.
Although it was the rainy season, it didn't rain.
I think it would be difficult to find animals because of the lush grass, but on the other hand, the greenery was so beautiful!
Our guide, Damien, knew the course very well and contacted the surroundings by radio so that we could see the animals.
I am grateful that we were able to see so many animals even though it was the rainy season.
We were asked to visit a Maasai village, and it cost $33 per person when we did it.
They showed us singing and dancing, how to make a fire, and showed us inside the houses.
It seemed a bit expensive, but it seems that the money was used to buy medicine and water for the children.
This time, the members I was with were two very nice people, so I had a great time from start to finish and it was the best tour ever!!

In tune to client needs and wants
From assigned drivers to accommodations to setting a reasonable yet high experience schedule, Chiral ATT nailed it.
We started in Nairobi, allowing for a good night's sleep and breakfast to recover from 22 hours of travel. Then we headed to our first game reserve. Our driver and guide, Joseph, was knowledgeable and strived to enable a full game experience. He clearly loves Kenya and animals - not just focusing on the big 5 (and ugly 5) but on birds, reptiles and animals of cultural (sometimes tribal) significance.
What stuck with me was the *balance* of roughing it on the road and long drives with opportunities to shop, spa, museums and cultural deep dives like a co-op that empowers women in poverty or a tribe striving to maintain their culture while ensuring health and well-being of their people.
Thru the entire 18 day trip l felt safe and listened to. I could ask questions and request adjustments.
We ended our experience in Mombasa at a resort. Clever move. We left with our last memory being the food, music and a sense of relaxation.
