Great day trip to Ngorongoro
My Lodge set me up with a day trip to Ngorongoro with Rupia at the last minute. I was on a tight budget and was happy to see it was more affordable than other places. I had to wake up really early since Ngorongoro is pretty far from Arusha, but it was definitely worth it. Elsa was skeptical because I have been on a safari in South Africa and salt that I had checked that box. But Ngorongoro is a whole different animal, pardon the pun. There are animals EVERYWHERE in the crater.
The guide/driver was friendly and kept saying these unrushed and fun. They provided us with ample lunches. The one thing to note is that at least for that trip they used an older, somewhat slower vehicle, but it was a totally fine and safari-appropriate land Rover with a top that opened up. I didn't travel to Tanzania to experience luxury vehicles.
The owner of the company was very friendly and since I book last-minute was fine with me paying afterwards and he came to my hotel to make that easier.
Good deal, great day, locally-operated - exactly what I wanted. Thank you!

Excited Lifetime Trip, Exotic Services, Number one company in Tanzania
We had a most wonderful experience with Rupia Adventure in Tanzania.
First we did a 4-day climb of Mt. Meru, then a 7-day-climb of Kilimanjaro via the Machame route, and finally a 3-day "comfortable camping" safari to Tarangire and Ngorongoro, and before, in-between and after each trip we always stayed in the OutPost Lodge in Arusha. We were a group of 4 friends on the first and last trip, with a 5th friend joining us for Kilimanjaro only.
When planning the trips, I asked for an offer including the Machame route on Kilimanjaro, and even though it was not officially mentioned on the website, I soon got a good offer which we were happy to proceed with. On the trips, everyone was always committed to serving us in a great way, always cheerful and eager. We were well-supplied with good food, especially the warm meals were very delicious, so we did not need most of the snacks we had brought along ourselves. Needless to say, we all made it to both summits. The Machame was a great experience, we were able to avoid all crowds for at least 3 days, being totally alone then.
Our safari guide was extremely knowledgeable and skilled, so thanks to him we had some thrilling wildlife sightings that I believe most other park visitors miss, including seeing endangered species such as cheetahs.
We really loved the OutPost Lodge that Rupia Adventure uses: the hotel rooms are actually in small bungalows scattered in a beautiful tropical garden, very peaceful.
I believe we really got an exceptional value-for-money deal with Rupia Adventure and I can highly recommend them.

One of My best Memory With Rupia Adventure
Rupia Adventure organized a 6 day safari to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Central Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Carter for me and my friend. Rupia Adventure took care of all the necessary details, including transport, and found us beautiful accommodations at lodges and tented camps throughout the trip. In short, they took care of absolutely everything, and we were able to just sit back and enjoy the ride. Also, throughout our safari, one of Rupia Adventure’s representatives, Voice, called our guide and asked to speak with us, just to check in and make sure that all was going smoothly and according to plan.
Additionally, our driver and guide, Miraji, was incredibly knowledgeable and talented. He had a knack for spotting animals while also navigating rough terrain. He also always made us feel safe and secure. Thanks to his skill, kindness, and expertise, we had an incredible Safari, and have some amazing photographs and memories!
We would highly recommend Rupia Adventure. The personnel are warm, welcoming, and experts in their field.

Good company experience
We recently completed our third safari with Rupia Adventure and are in the process of booking our fourth safari with them. All safaris have been at least two weeks long. We cannot say enough about the absolutely excellent quality of each safari we have taken from beginning to end. Booking a safari by email is very easy. We have worked with Maria for each safari. Maria's communication skills are very good and she works to schedule a safari based on your interests. Tent camps and lodges chosen are always high quality, very comfortable with great food and the best customer service. Miraji is a wonderful guide with amazing knowledge and has made it possible for us to have the best memories of Tanzania. Our safari vehicle for each safari has been well maintained and very comfortable even when traveling the bumpy roads of the Serengeti. We always choose the African Tulip Hotel while in Arusha. This is a five star hotel with each room having a different animal theme and one of our favorite hotels in Tanzania and is owned by Rupia Adventure. Tanzania is a wonderful country with the best wildlife viewing in Africa and very warm, wonderful people. Rupia adventure is the best at showing you all Tanzania has to offer.

Lifetime Adventure
It is a good company. They organized our meeting, accommodation and Kilimanjaro climb at the highest level. The guide and porters are very sociable and friendly. I am very happy to get new unforgettable impressions. My special thanks to my guide named Julius. He is very attentive and meticulous. He scrupulously watched my health and wellbeing. In hard time he shared his raincoat with me. He is a very good man!!! Due to him I improved my knowledge of English and overcame language barrier. I also want to thank all team that accompanied me: Samora, Amri, Andrew, Maziku, Richard, Abraham and Samuel. By the way, do not worry about food. The cook will note your wishes and cook meals that you want. The most important is not lose the appetite at an altitude. I would like to tell those who decided to climb that the main thing is to believe in yourself and properly count your forces. During all route you will be measured the oxygen level in blood and the pulse rate. Listen to the guide and choose the right speed. Good luck to everyone! And lastly I want to thank manager Janniken for the good tips and well organized work.
Highly recommend to Rupia Adventure and experience team

Amazing experience
Hi everyone! I and my wife went to Tanzania for a honeymoon and of course we decided to do the most important thing - to conquer the top of Africa. Our friends have recommended us RUPIA ADVENTURE company. We discussed our climbing and safari remotely. I think prices are rather high but as a reward we got a better quality compared with competitors. RUPIA ADVENTURE company has a new equipment: tents, sleeping bags, even their safari car is new and very cool! During the ascent the team took care of us. Surely they were earning money but they did their work well. It is not so easy to find such good team. It is a chief’s merit! I have some tips for those who are going to conquer Kilimanjaro, firstly, don’t doubt, it is very cool! Secondly, choose only RUPIA ADVENTURE! We do not have any bad emotions or any remarks. Everything was great!
