5.0/5Hi everyone, My group of six friends and a nearly two-year-old baby and I went on a two-day safari in Tarangire and Ngorongoro National Parks. We saw incredible landscapes and animals. Special thanks to Gordon, our driver, and Daniel for taking care of everything. If you want to go on safari, Suricats Safari is the place to go!!! (automatic translation from French)

We had an absolutely incredible 2-day safari in Tanzania! A huge thank you to Gordon, who was an exceptional guide: passionate, funny, attentive, and always smiling. He truly made this experience even more special with his explanations and energy. Thank you also to Daniel for the perfect organization of the trip and his kindness from beginning to end. Everything was very well prepared, and we felt in good hands throughout the entire journey. The meals were excellent, plentiful, and always very welcome after the safaris. Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater are simply magnificent, with breathtaking landscapes and incredible animals to observe. An unforgettable experience that we wholeheartedly recommend! 🦁🌍✨ (automatic translation from French)

The organization was perfect, from the transfers to the food, etc. Gordon and Daniel were very, very kind; they took the time to show and explain everything to us. We saw a huge number of animals over two days. (automatic translation from French)

Just came back from an amazing 3 day safari through Serengeti and Ngorongoro national park. Our guide Felix was very knowledgeable about both flora and fauna within the parks. He answered all our questions and also told us many interesting stories throughout the day and during our meal breaks. He was accompanied by Jeremiah, our group's cook. The food was always delicious and plenty. I did not expect such a good quality given the simple infrastructure that they are working with. Highly recommend this safari.
