Elias was welcoming, patient, full of knowledge and determined to provide a top experience for us!
Absolutely incredible! Budget camping safari did not feel like budget at all! From our pick up we were looked after, given amazing photo opportunities as well as interesting knowledge of all the facts. Our guide Elias was determined also to ensure we caught all the action, especially with a lion pride catch and a male lion walking in Ngorongoro Crater. After our drives, our chef, Pius, ensured we felt comfortable on camp and eased any nerves! The food he provided for breakfast lunch and dinner was top notch! For a backpacker having camped elsewhere in Africa, I was delighted to have delicious meals everyday, especially homemade pizza !!! But most of all, he created a fun atmosphere on camp too!
The budget camping safari was spectacular but one thing that made it even better was the people met because of the group joining aspect of it!
Thank you so much Elias and Pius and Suricata Safaris! A trip of a lifetime!

The entire trip was well organised, with good arrangements for accommodation, transportation and game drives. The hotel and lodge arrangements were comfortable, and the overall itinerary allowed us to enjoy Tanzania’s magnificent wildlife and breathtaking landscapes.
The team was professional, supportive and attentive to our requirements, making the journey smooth and memorable. We truly enjoyed the safari and appreciate the efforts made by Kiota Adventures & Safaris to ensure a wonderful experience.
I would highly recommend Kiota Adventures & Safaris to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania for their reliable service, good organisation and memorable safari experience.

The best tour operator you could wish for!
We had the safari of a lifetime!
We witnessed some truly incredible moments, including lions hunting and eating a zebra, as well as lions mating. We also saw all of the Big Five and every animal we had hoped to see. It was an unforgettable experience!
All of this was made possible by Elias, our fantastic safari guide. He was reliable, knowledgeable, and communicated exceptionally well throughout the entire trip. His English is excellent, and he made sure we had the best possible safari experience, helping us get amazing views of the wildlife up close while always respecting the animals.
We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Thank you, Elias, for making this such an incredible and unforgettable adventure. We highly recommend him to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania!

Knowledgeable
I had an amazing experience with suricata. Elias was the kindest tour guide with expert knowledge. There wasn’t a question you’d ask about the animals that he didn’t have the answer to. He was passionate and dedicated to giving us the best experience possible and it even exceeded my already high expectations I had. This has truly been an adventure of a lifetime with memories I will cherish for years to come, seeing the animals in their natural habitat has been magical. I will be back again one day! Would highly recommend Elias and suricata to anyone looking for a quality safari experience.

Elias, He has been an excellent guide, doing everything possible to help us see the animals.
Thanks to our guide, Elias, we were able to see all kinds of animals—including the "Big Five"—often in spectacular moments; we even witnessed lionesses hunting. Furthermore, he possesses extensive knowledge about the animals and constantly shared interesting facts with us, which made for a great learning experience.

Communication was great and we always received prompt replies to any questions
We had an amazing time. Kathi was so professional and all elements of the trip were expertly planned. The trip was excellent value for money and all accommodation and guides were of a very high standard. We received lots of information prior to the trip and an app to help us navigate each day made our daily planning easy. Kathi also arranged for a birthday surprise while we were there. She was very professional and very easy to work with.

21 Days Tour, Exceptional Service, Fair Prices, and an Unforgettable Ethiopian Experience
We spent 21 unforgettable days exploring the beautiful and diverse country of Ethiopia with our group of friends, and it was truly an experience of a lifetime. As friends who share a passion for photography, we had countless priceless moments, breathtaking landscapes, incredible wildlife, and wonderful cultural encounters that we will never forget.
Our journey included 10 days exploring the spectacular Simien and Bale Mountains, followed by 11 days discovering the historical, cultural, and natural treasures of Lalibela, Gondar, the Omo Valley, and Harar. Every destination offered something unique, and we came away with beautiful memories and thousands of photographs to remind us of this amazing adventure.
A special thank-you goes to Mr. Lamesgn, the owner of the tour company, for organizing such a wonderful trip. The tour was exceptionally well planned, the price was fair, and everything was arranged so smoothly that we never felt we were missing out on anything. The team was professional, helpful, and genuinely committed to making our journey enjoyable.
One moment that really showed the quality of their service was when our domestic flight from Addis Ababa to Jinka was cancelled due to weather conditions. The team acted immediately and arranged an alternative flight to Arba Minch, allowing us to continue our itinerary without missing our planned tour. We truly appreciated how quickly and efficiently they handled this unexpected situation. It gave us great peace of mind and showed us that we were in good hands.
What made this trip so special was not only the incredible places we visited, but also the care, organization, and dedication of the people behind it. Ethiopia is a remarkable country, full of beauty, history, culture, and warm hospitality, and having a reliable team made our experience even more meaningful.
Thank you, Mr. Lamesgn, and the entire team, for your hard work, kindness, and outstanding organization. You helped turn our 21 days in Ethiopia into memories that will stay with us for a lifetime.
We would wholeheartedly recommend this tour company to anyone planning to discover Ethiopia. If you are looking for a well-organized tour, fair prices, and a team that truly cares about its guests, we can confidently recommend them.
Thank you once again for everything. We came as friends with a passion for photography, and we left with unforgettable memories, amazing photographs, and a deeper appreciation for Ethiopia. We hope to return someday!
