It is amazing! A best tour that I’d never had.
I joined a five days Safari tour with four friends in June 2023.
The overall experience is fantastic!
On the first day, when we arrived at the Nairobi airport, three Reny guys picked us up. Reny guys and Kenyans treat us like their friends in this unfamiliar country, giving us an excellent first impression of this country.
During the five-day Safari tour, Elisha is the best tour guide, helping us to solve the travelling issue patiently. When we found the Big Five in the national park, Elisha professionally contacted other tour guides from different companies via radio to see the lions, cheetahs, elephants, etc. He tried his best to complete our requests for the Kenya Safari tour. In addition, we are four girls without males to attend the Reny Safari, and it is safe and comfortable to make friends with Elisha.
Again, Reny’s Safari is impressive!

VERY PROFESSIONAL
We can only recommend this tour operator for your safari. They were extremely professional both when creating the itinerary and during the tour. They advised us best based on our needs and time/financial availability. Our driver was also top notch. Excellent judgement.

Great Lion Safari
We had a wonderful tour up close with the Lions. The lions were very interactive as was the giraffe! Our guide was very knowledgeable and fun to be with!! If you want to see lions close up, this is the tour to take!!

Most Incredible Safari Experience
We just came back from the best 5-day safari in Tanzania with Suricata!
As the title already suggests: it was indeed picture-perfect (attached are some of our favorite photos we took ourselves).
This was our first time in sub-Saharan Africa and also our first safari experience. We couldn't have asked for more. Not only were the trips to the different national parks incredible, but it really was the people we were with that made this trip incredible.
First and foremost our guide, Damian, whose expertise made wildlife accessible to us. Indeed, he was significantly more than a guide - the rapport we and the whole group had with him was incredibly close. We laughed, joked and had the best time together. It's amazing to see, that Damian truly lives and breathes being a guide - we're sure that this is also why we were so lucky as to see the Big Five.
Our five days were framed by the incredible and most exquisite and local food made by the chef, Salum. He would go the extra mile for all courses: be it through cooking up one or two extra dishes or beautifully decorating the table. One could really see the passion he has for cooking, which translates time and time again onto the dishes. Now in Zanzibar we cannot but miss the exquisite combinations of Salum's cuisine.
We seldomly write reviews but were so extremly happy with our experience that we wholeheartedly recommend Suricata Safari. If you're able to book quite a bit in advance, make sure that you communicate you'd like to be accompanied by Damian and Salum. It really makes a difference!
Asante sana - and may we meet again!

Perfect Experience
Communication form beginning was very clear and was smooth booking to start with .
we were picked up from our hotel on time and started our trip to MasaiMara.
Peter our driver was so nice, he made regular stops for us to use the toilet and he advised us were to do the shopping as there is many souvenir shops around.
Hotel that were booked were amazing , really five star, safe and some of them.had lots of animals walking around.
We also arrangeed for Baloon Ride which i highly recommend anyone to do.It is pricy but really worthwhile.
This company has no jeeps but it has like a mini van which has roof that opens. it is safe and while in mara our driver opened the roof so we were able to take nice pictures and enjoy the drive.
The driver has a radio so he will be able to hear where animals are and take you there.
We went in August and we didnt get to see the rhinos but everything else we did.
Over all i do highly recomend them.
We were 2 girls and i have to say we felt super safe.

I had 12 days trip in uganda
In Uganda, I embarked on a thrilling 21-day adventure, which included chimp trekking in Kibale and gorilla trekking in Bwindi. The experience was simply incredible! The lush forests of Kibale resonated with the playful calls of chimpanzees as we hiked through the dense vegetation. Observing these intelligent creatures up close was a surreal experience that left me in awe of their similarities to humans.
Next, I headed to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park for the ultimate highlight of my trip: gorilla trekking. The mist-covered mountains of Bwindi concealed these majestic creatures, but with the guidance of experienced rangers, we ventured deep into the wilderness. After an arduous hike, I encountered a gorilla family in their natural habitat. The sheer size and grace of these gentle giants left me speechless.
Throughout my time in Uganda, the breathtaking landscapes, diverse wildlife, and warm hospitality of the people enriched my journey. It was an unforgettable experience that filled my heart with wonder and left me longing to return to this remarkable country.

Exceptional!!
Off2Africa were amazing! Sian took down all of our requirements and built a stunning itinerary meeting our every need. The result? Our trip to Southern Africa has probably been the best holiday we have ever had!! Every lodge, every guide, every member of their teams, all of the internal transfers and flights were impeccable. All went off without a hitch, felt completely seamless and was utterly wonderful. The communication with Sian before, during and after our trip was second to none!
We cannot wait to return and will likely be in touch when we do!

The trip of a lifetime! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My son and I are just finishing up a 5 day safari with Safari by Z. It has been the most amazing experience. We love to travel and have visited many countries but this trip is #1. We visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. Tanzania is a such a beautiful county and the people are wonderful. We saw every animal from lions, leopards, elephants, cheetah’s, giraffes, and every animal you could ever think of seeing on a safari down to baboons and even lemurs and mongoose. We saw everything and we were close enough to touch them. It was incredible! What made the trip even more special was our guide Lemomo. He made sure that we saw everything, when we saw a cheetah in the distance, too far to barely see through the binoculars, he took off and brought us literally beside it. He made the trip for us and he is such an asset to this company! We enjoyed his company so much. I can’t recommend him enough, and Safari by Z! From start to finish, from the planning and the emails to the actual trip. 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.
I thought this was a once in a lifetime trip but I’m literally thinking about when I can come back and do another one soon. With Safari by Z and Lemomo of course!

My trip was planned perfectly
I have traveled with Mr James Adam before and have planned my next trip with him again. It is wonderfully uncomplicated and he strives to be able to fulfill all the wishes of his guests. With his professional tour planning, I had sensational animal encounters and was able to take fantastic photos. I'm already looking forward to my next tour
