Most amazing experience
Clearly, a once in a lifetime experience! We were picked up from the airport, the driver was super sweet, we met the owner Emanuel, who explained us everything and then brought to a nice hotel very central in Arusha. Next morning our fantastic guide Luttiba Ndemera picked us up and the adventure started. Luttiba went above and beyond to make our Safari the best possible experience! He is a fantastic driver, answered all our questions, was in a super good mood and took really, really well care of us! We saw so many different animals thanks to him! He knew just where to go, we even saw a leopard and lions hunting! The food was really good, too and the tents were much more comfy than I expected because they even had small mattresses! You can even charge your phone in the car! I wish we could have stayed longer!

Great value, communication and tour guide
We went on a four day four Park safari with crater explorers after being recommended by friends who had gone on their honeymoon.
Communication with emanuel was second to none, he would reply at any time of day.. I'm not sure if he sleeps! He managed to sort out some belongings we had left at one lodge and bring it to our next stop to prevent a detour and time away from safari.
Our tour guide Charles was terrific. With over two decades of experience we could tell he knew his stuff as soon as we met him. With the right balance of being informative without being scripted or overbearing, as well as driving around a good and safe pace with our three year old. If I went again I would definitely want charles to take be my guide. His English was also superb and my son loved him.
However, the stay in the serengeti was a let down with our 'upgrade' from the tented Lodge was really not upto par and if I went again I would definitely want to choose better accommodation even if the cost was slightly more.
However, as as the other stays were above expectation I felt the tour was excellent value for money overall.

The best experience ever!
The whole experience was indescribable and unforgettable. Everything from start to finish was excellent, we wouldn't change a thing. We stayed in lodges and they were all exceptional, with delicious food and friendly staff. Chef Emanuel cooked excellently for our lunches. But I would like to praise our guide and driver Charles the most, who was like a “father” to our shared group. He took really good care of us and we felt safe and comfortable with him. All praise to the whole company Crater Explorers because they were very reliable and reachable for our questions!

Amazing
It was a very nice adventure! The accomodations were amazing and we saw a Lot of animals. Especially the tourguide and the Food was very nice. I can recommend craterexplorer. Also the Price was totally ok. Just have a Look that you pay USD in Cash because there are a Lot of fees If you pay by creditcard or TZS.
Thanks for the nice Trip!

Everything worked wonderfully and fully met our expectations. Thank you very much
It was a very nice tour and the accommodation was excellent. The communication with Emanuel worked well and everything was to our complete satisfaction. The guide was excellent and the food we had for lunch was excellent every time. I recommend paying for the safari in dollars with cash as there are fees otherwise.

Smooth and immediate response
A friend introduced me to Create Explorer and I joined the tour.
I hadn't made any travel plans, so I contacted them a week before, but they replied the same day and I was able to join the tour.
I enjoyed the safari more than enough. I plan to introduce it to my friends. Asante sana

Amazing
I highly recommend booking with craterexplorer. I went on a four day safari and had a phenomenal time! It is well priced and a small company so they go above and beyond to insure you have an amazing experience. The driver, accommodations and food was all equally amazing.Emmanuel is extremely easy going and makes the entire process easy.

Highly recommend
We had an incredible 4 day safari. Every national park we visited was unique and beautiful on its own. We saw more wildlife than I expected. The accomodations in the lodge package were far beyond our expectations offering very comfortable rooms and exceptional views on the Serengeti and the Ngorogoro crater. Be flexible and open to some shifts in the plan, just changing the order of the national parks or pickup times. You still get everything you've booked :-) Highly recommend the tour with crater explorers.

Amazing, professional service!
It was an amazing experience with a great guide and an amazing chef! The communication was very smooth and food was the tastiest I ate in Tanzania. Saw so many animals and I feel that we really explored every park we went to. Also it was nice going towards the start of the rain season because the parks were less crowded. Overall, I would really recommend this operator.
