Topy Tours was the right choice for us
The safari was an unbelievable experience for us. Everything was well organised by Jackson and our guide Freddy did a great job. He was very motivated to make the best out of our visit and we had a lot of fun together. The schedule was still flexible and we were able to choose between different options. We also booked the Waterfall-coffee-and-hot springs tour with Jackson. All guides were friendly and able to give us some knowledge about the surrounding. The food was nice and always enough. We are happy:)

Great organization; nothing was difficult. Thank you!
Great experience both this time and last time Mwaka organized our family tour (Nov. 2022). Nothing was difficult (except maybe what is outside their control, like Gorilla permits), and service with a very positive spirit. I hope I will have another opportunity to visit and have Mwaka and Makario in charge of my destiny and destination! And kudos to the driver/guides as well. MURAKOZE!

Thorough and prompt communication
I recently embarked on an unforgettable safari adventure with Suricata Safaris, exploring the magnificent Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. This safari surpassed all expectations, immersing me in the raw beauty of these iconic Tanzanian destinations.
Suricata Safaris meticulously planned every detail, ensuring a seamless and awe-inspiring journey. As we entered the vast Serengeti, the undulating grasslands and towering acacia trees painted a picture of untamed wilderness. The knowledgeable guides from Suricata Safaris expertly led us through the rugged terrain, unveiling a world teeming with captivating wildlife.
The game drives in the Serengeti were a true highlight. Lions gracefully patrolling their territories, herds of elephants moving in majestic unity, and giraffes delicately grazing against the stunning backdrop of the African savannah. Suricata Safaris' guides shared their in-depth knowledge, allowing us to witness extraordinary moments and capture memories that will last a lifetime.
The journey continued to the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, a natural wonder and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Descending into the crater's floor, we were greeted by a microcosm of diverse ecosystems. With Suricata Safaris, we witnessed the drama of predator-prey interactions and marveled at the abundance of wildlife thriving in this unique and enclosed habitat.
Suricata Safaris' commitment to sustainable tourism was evident throughout the entire experience. The accommodations provided a comfortable and eco-friendly retreat in the heart of the wilderness, allowing us to connect with nature without compromising on comfort. The attentive staff ensured our every need was met, adding a touch of luxury to our adventure.
Additionally, Suricata Safaris provided opportunities to engage with the local Maasai community, gaining insights into their rich traditions and way of life. It was a humbling experience that deepened our appreciation for the harmonious coexistence between humans and wildlife.
Throughout the safari, Suricata Safaris tantalized our taste buds with delectable cuisine. From traditional African dishes to international delicacies, each meal was a culinary delight. We savored gourmet dinners under starlit skies, recounting the day's encounters and forging connections with fellow travelers.
In conclusion, Suricata Safaris curated a truly exceptional safari experience, exploring the awe-inspiring Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Their knowledgeable guides, impeccable service, and commitment to conservation made this journey unforgettable. If you seek to immerse yourself in the breathtaking wonders of Tanzania's wilderness, Suricata Safaris is the perfect choice. Prepare to be mesmerized, inspired, and forever touched by the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater's natural grandeur.

A bit chaotic but realiable
We wanted a simple, budget safari, so we chose to visit the Masai Mara and Nakuru in a short time.
As we wanted to avoid overpaying, we didn't really care about where to stay. The tented camp in the Maasai village did not disappoint. Citymax - a run-down, simple hotel, adequate. It is better not to have high expectations for this hotel. But it does its job.
The food was filling and good.
The safari programme was well thought out: one evening game drive, a full day in the Masai Mara, then a swim in Lake Naivashu, which I consider a good introduction to Nakuru. Once you know about the small creatures, you can go deeper. We enjoyed it all very much, although it actually takes half the time just to go from park to park.
The driver, Richard, was a great companion, a very nice, responsible, fatherly person. He maintained privacy (he was not one for joking and fraternizing) and we apreciated that. Richard had his own style of driving, approaching the lions first and adding knowledge to the tour. Be curious, it pays off!
About the organisation: we were happy with the route, although the organisation was a bit chaotic. We were communicated quickly, but had to keep revising the details (the prices were different, please update!), and when we left, it turned out that the itinerary we had received was the opposite (not Nakuru-Masai Mara, but Masai Mara-Nakuru - which is better by the way). There was a bit of a lack of live contact when paying, so we were a bit hesitant about whether everything would be OK. However, everything is reliable: we got our invoice, we were picked up from the hotel on time, and the programme and the guide service really exceeded expectations. So overall I rate the safari as good.
If you are looking for a great safari experience without demanding too much from the conditions, this is for you!

Great communicator!
Highly recommend Safari Soles. Bryson is a great communicator and everything was organized so we could just relax and enjoy our adventure. Jonathan was our guide and he is a LEGEND! He is a accomplished naturalist and helped me with bird identifications along the way. I had a perpetual smile on my face for the whole week- it was perfection!

Jocky Tours delivered a truly incredible Safari experience
Jocky Tours organised and delivered a fantastic Safari experience which far outweighed expectations. Our group was able to enjoy two full days out in the park in addition to an evening drive after we arrived at the camp. The camp itself was near to the park entrance, the tents were clean and comfortable and we were able to have hot showers whenever we wanted. The guides were definitely the standout part of this trip. Jonny was fantastic and very knowledgeable and passionate about the animals we encountered. We saw two leopards in one day in addition to a cheetah hunting, all of which we wouldn’t have seen without our guides being on the ball and listening to what we wanted to see. Overall I now understand why this company is so highly rated with the added benefit of being very good value for money.

Great safari and advice based on our requests.
Julius Tact Safaris is a reputable and professional outfit!
They organised a super trip to Tsavo East and West with full board accommodation at Sentrim and Severin safari camps. We saw so much wildlife with our knowledgeable guide Dominic that we extended our trip by a night through our guide and from our jeep as he communicated directly with the team. Thank you JT safari's and team.
