We offer you safari tours to the most emblematic parks in Tanzania. Some of them are Lake Manyara National Park, Serengeti National Park, and the Ngorongoro Crater. The hiking trips include climbing Mount Meru and the great Kilimanjaro. We also have excursions to several local tribes: Hadzabe (Bushmen), Gidangodigi (Blacksmith), Datoga, Maasai, and Chaga.

HAKUNA MATATA, we´ll take care of you!

Suricata Safaris was launched by a Tanzanian native, named Hillary, in 2016. Hillary was just 22 years old. he is originally from the area around Kilimanjaro, from a tribe called Chaga. From a young age Hillary knew he wanted to show his country to the people, so he went to Tourism school in Arusha and paid the tuition with the money he earned by selling used clothes on the streets. During his studies he learned about the tourism business and he further learned about all the animals in the parks of Tanzania. After his studies Hillary wanted to start a tourism company, so he bought a 4×4 car from the money he has saved. This is when Suricata Safaris was started. Hillary now takes care of his family and is paying for his younger sister´s education in Arusha.

In August of 2017, Martin, from German origin, visited Tanzania and had a safari tour with Hillary. Martin explains that he saw something in Hillary that was more than a tour guide. He saw someone very focused and organized, yet with a very good sense of humor. He says: ¨Hillary always went the extra mile to make us happy! For him, his biggest reward was to see the group happy.¨ Martin further explained ¨Hillary is a humble man and a very knowledgeable safari guide. He found all the animals and showed us things that no other safari tours went to see.¨ That was the moment Martin knew that Hillary would be a great business partner and an even better friend. Hillary could not have been more happy to see their business grow and employ more local people of Tanzania.

Today, Suricata Safaris is a proud growing company. We endeavor to make our customers happy and provide them with an adventure of a lifetime.

We thank you for supporting our mission.

Best guide. Best Chef. Best Vehicle. Best knowledge. Most unforgettable experience ever.

You know you have the best guide in the business when all the other guides keep asking your guide where the animals are!
I organised this Safari direct with Hilary via WhatsApp from Australia. He was able to accommodate my special requests with ease and was entirely professional with amazing communication. He was able to accommodate my request to visit a local orphanage which ended up being quite an adventure for all of us due to the wet, hilly and muddy terrain.
Our guide Zeiki was outstanding in his driving skill and knowledge. He certainly used great skill on our drive into the Rift Valley to the orphanage.
His English is perfect and I had no trouble understanding his very interesting commentary.
Our Chef was also “the best chef ever”. Such delicious wholesome meals and every time we felt hungry he was there with mouth watering goodness.
I recommend you use this company. They exceeded all others in honesty, professionalism and providing thorough enjoyment.
You won’t regret your decision to book with Suricata Safaris.

Best Safari Experience

Our sfari driver was Hilary and he is the best. Full of energy and amazing stories and fnny jokes. We had a lot of fun on a 4-day safari (which is totally enough if you want to see all the antional parks). We saw the big 5 group, which was unforgetable. Staying in tents can be really exicitng since you’re sleeping surrounded with zebras and bivols, so I would not change it to lodge. Only thing I would not miss is visiting Masai village. It’s too commercial already. You better visit Hundzabi tribe which is really interesting (still living in caves).

5 Day Safari

Me and my friend did a 5 days tour with Frederic to Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro-Manyara and we had a blast.
Frederic was a great guide, always qorrying that we are happy and satisfied and always with a good attitude. He knew everything about wildlife and explained us patiently. Couldn’t ask for more!
Also Hillary organised our tour and informed us of everything beforehand, picked us up at the airport, took as for lunch and also on the way back!
Thank you so much for everything to both!!
