Excellent Suricata Safari
We had an incredible safari experience with Suricata Safari! The trip was exceptionally well-organized, with excellent customer care, a punctual schedule, and a genuinely caring team. From the moment we were picked up at the airport, everything ran smoothly. They transferred us to our hotel and then to the safari starting point, where our unforgettable journey began.
Our safari included two nights and one day exploring the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, ensuring a seamless experience. Initially, we were supposed to be dropped off at the airport after the safari, but our flight was delayed. The team went above and beyond, checking in with us and confirming our new flight time. They even arranged a hotel where we could rest, shower, and eat before heading back to the airport.
We chose the cheapest package, however Suricata Safari exceeded our expectations in every way. It’s worth noting that the company offers various levels of experience to suit different preferences and budgets. We couldn’t be happier with our trip and highly recommend this Suricata Safari to anyone considering a safari adventure. Beyond satisfied!
I have to say Mbwana the guide is very professional and very knowledgeable. We saw lots of animals because of him. The Chef Innocent made us excellent food during our trip. Kelvin the driver was great. Thank you to Dennis and Tuleep for organizing such amazing safari for us. Well done great team.

An amazing safari experience organised by a great team
We went on a 5 day safari with Suricata starting in Arusha. Before we started the safari they picked us up from Arusha airport and brought us to our hotel where we were given a briefing by Dennis that explained everything we needed to know for the next days. As we had some time to kill in Arusha they also organised a small tour of the city for us with a great guide called Chuke.
The next day we started our safari for five days. The first day was spent with Rocky as our guide, the next four with Elias. Both were warm, informative and great to have as guides. The lodges we stayed in were beautiful, and the food was delicious, as were the lunches had on safari cooked by our chef from Suricata, Pius. We ended our safari with a debrief with Daniel in Arusha who also arranged a complimentary transfer to our next hotel. Overall nothing was lacking in the adventure. The communication was excellent and we felt fully cared for the entire time. I would really highly recommend this company to anyone looking at doing a safari in Tanzania.

100% recommend the 3-day safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro
The 3-day safari tour in Serengeti and Ngorongoro was amazing! Our local guide Max was very nice and professional, with great knowledge of the animals and how to find them (we saw the Big five!). We had two long game drives in Serengeti and one in the crater, which was beautiful and enough to enjoy all the wildlife. Suricata Safari took care of the accomodation (campsite) and all the meals (the chef Tito cooked the best local food we tried during our stay in Tanzania). We 100% recommend

Fantastic!
Fantastic trip!! Elias was our guide and he was phenomenal, we saw about every animal you can see and more! Lunches were delicious and home cooked, accommodations were lovely and I felt safe the whole time. As a solo female traveler I was a little nervous before I joined the tour but felt safe the whole time and our group had a great vibe! Would definitely book again!

Mixed experience but kept asking for 5 star review
We had a mixed experience on our 4 day safari. Our first three days were very good, but our final day they changed our group and car which led to a lot of sitting on side of road or on curb waiting. We were never communicated with about what was happening. If you have the same group/guide I say you'll have a better experience but we were not told till 10pm before our 6am tour start that we were to have two different groups. We found the communication poor - at the end when they meet you they kept pushing for us to give 5 star review rather than listening to our experience and feedback. The food on the tour was excellent and our jeep was very good.

once-in-a-lifetime adventure
We just completed an incredible wildlife adventure in Tanzania, thanks to this outstanding safari agency. From the start, we were impressed by the professional and attentive Mr. T, whose enthusiasm and meticulous planning set the perfect tone for our entire journey.
Our driver and guide, Livingston, was not only handsome but also incredibly experienced. His deep knowledge of wildlife and the natural environment was eye-opening. Under his guidance, we were fortunate to see all the animals we had dreamed of, truly fulfilling our safari aspirations.
A delightful surprise was our chef, James, whose culinary skills were simply amazing! Each meal was a delicious adventure, allowing us to enjoy gourmet food while experiencing the thrill of the wild.
In addition to the traditional safari experience, we also participated in an Arusha city tour. We felt very safe throughout and gained a deep appreciation for this fascinating city. This urban excursion added a rich cultural dimension to our trip.
Overall, this journey exceeded all our expectations. From wildlife viewing to gastronomic delights, from professional service to urban exploration, every detail was perfect. I highly recommend this safari agency to anyone looking to experience the natural wonders of Tanzania. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure!

The most enchanting and perfect experience I had in my life. Suricata is amazing!
My name is Mateus (@Matrips_), and I’ve traveled to over 50 countries around the world, but my experience with Suricata was by far one of the most surprising and impactful ones ever!
We did a 5-day safari through Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and the Great Migration, staying between tents and lodges, and I can honestly say it was one of the best experiences of my life.
From the first contact on WhatsApp, Suricata’s service was flawless. The team’s attention, care, and dedication were obvious in every detail.
From the moment they picked us up at the airport to the last minute of our adventure, their kindness, professionalism, and passion for what they do shined through the entire time.
During the whole safari, our guide was EZEKIEL, and I honestly don’t have enough words to describe him. He was incredible—super helpful, always in a good mood, extremely knowledgeable, and knew everything about the animals and nature around us. He patiently answered all our questions and did everything possible to give us the dream experience, going above and beyond to find all the animals we wanted to see. He exceeded all my expectations, which were already high!
Honestly, it was extraordinary. Suricata is a company I recommend without hesitation, from start to finish! It was a perfect experience, way beyond what I could’ve imagined.
Everything was perfect from the start. You can trust that they’ll give you the best experience of your life.
Thank you!

Superb Suricta Safari Tour
This 5-day safari tour was a perfect balance of adventure, wildlife viewing, and relaxation. Tanzania’s beauty is staggering, and the abundance of wildlife makes every moment exciting.
Whether you’re an avid photographer, a nature enthusiast, or simply looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience, I highly recommend this tour. Each park we visited had its own charm, and the memories we made will last a lifetime.
Suricata Safari went above and beyond for the entirety of our stay and made every single moment special. Mandela was extremely good throughout the entire experience and really showcased his experience, knowledge and passion for everything safari & had no issue accommodating plenty of toilet stops or spotting a pack of lions whilst driving, giving information & checking the vehicle was safe. Mandela made it his personal mission to ensure we saw the big 5 and he certainly didnt fail!
The food was exeptional at all sites and throughout the safari, with a cooked meal for lunch everyday without fail! - with 2 vegetarians & a ceolaic (gluten free) this was no small task.
The only tour guide to use! - excellent execution & organisation from Start to finish!
