Unforgettable Safari
We did the 5 day Impressive Tanzania safari and there aren't enough words to describe how amazing this experience was. Everything from the very beginning of getting a quote to the end of getting dropped off to our next transportation was completely professional and smooth. All communication with the head office/booking agents throughout the months leading up to the safari was terrific. Response time was excellent, very friendly and professional. Everything on the safari ran according to plan (as best as it could), and our driver Miraji was absolutely phenomenal. We loved every minute of the safari and I wish I could go back and do it every day!
\Accommodations were excellent along the way, and all inclusions were exactly as listed. Miraji was extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly, we loved spending time with him and learning all about the animals and nature throughout the safari. I wish we could have taken him throughout the rest of our travels in East Africa!
We recommend Rupia Adventure for all future traveler

Thank you Rupia Adventure
I recently went on a Lake Manyara/Serengeti/Ngorogoro Crater safari with Rupia's and it was an unbelievable experience. I was joined by my now fiance (I proposed on the safari), my now future mother-in-law and my parents. From the moment we touched down at Kilimanjaro until our return 5 days later, we were treated fantastically well. Our guide Mathias was informative, kind, thoughtful and kept us all motivated to make the most of such an amazing experience. We stayed at both Serena & Sopa lodges and both were excellent. I spent a long time deciding which operator to use for the safari (as there are more than 200), however, my decision to go with Rupia's was well rewarded. As a result, I would recommend Rupia's for anyone who wishes to have an outstanding safari experience.

Above and Beyond Expectation
With a short amount of time to make arrangements for a safari before volunteering at a hospital in Tanzania, we immediately felt comfortable with Angel and Mathias, the communication and arrangements. We relied on their experience for the best trip for five days and we were not disappointed; we only wish we had more time. Everyone at Rupia Adventure will make you comfortable and do whatever it takes to make your adventure top-notch and unforgettable.
We started in Tarangire National Park and saw an amazing number and variety of animals with the close up experience of a small herd of elephant going around both sides of the Land Cruiser. As we entered the Serengeti National Park, there did not seem to be any wildlife around, but as Humphrey took us further in, it couldn't have been more alive. The number of zebra, gazelle, reed buck, impala, hyena, etc. is amazing. We saw a female lion miss a zebra kill because of a split second hesitation of which of two zebra to take down. A courting male lion was clueless to the pride preparing to take down some zebra approaching, thus he ruined the hunt with a growl to the lioness as she approached the pride. Humphrey saw a leopard (the second of the trip) and as we approached she crouched, and pounced, but missed the rabbit she was after. She spotted a reed buck but was also unable to successfully make a kill. In the Ngorongoro Crater another drama occurred involving a pride of 16 lions, 5 more male lions, buffalo preventing an attack on a lone buffalo, and a group of hyena circling and killing a wart hog all near the hippo pool.
Elasto is an excellent guide and eager to share his knowledge of the animals, the eco-system, and Tanzania while spotting animals and making the whole experience fun. His English is outstanding as he can discuss classes of rock, their formations, and try to confound you with riddles.
Elasto and Mathias went above and beyond to make sure we had accommodations at the end of our safari when communication with people outside their company did not come through. We will be forever grateful to Mathias for his persistence to communicate on our behalf with hospital personnel and shuttling us into town for supplies to make us comfortable as we began our volunteer time. Meredith also helped us connect with Miraji who made three weekend day trips unforgettable as well.

The Best Experience
Rupia Adventure got us up Mt Kilimanjaro, they ensured a very successful safari, and ultimately made our stay in Tanzania extremely worthwhile. The experience on the mountain is what we came for and we left as family. Our guides Julius and Noel ensured a safe and fun trek up the Marangu route. Samora our waiter, also doubled as a helper on summit day and as our photographer. Turns out he’s won some photography awards! We had plenty of food and it w as delicious our whole trip up. The vast knowledge of our guides of the flora and fauna through Kilimanjaro National Park was amazing. Our tents were set up every day before we reached camp, and we had our own private outhouse tent which was entirely unexpected. They really dragged us up the mountain when we needed it (especially on summit day) and made it a memorable experience in the best of ways.

JUST TOO GREAT
We have just finished our once in a lifetime African Safari with Rupia Adventure and are ecstatic with the whole experience which far exceeded even our highest of expectations. Mathias organized a personalized 4 night, 5 day budget safari. Mathias was extremely accommodating, helpful and responsive which was a major reason for choosing Rupia Adventure. Our guide Miraji and chef David were outstanding, exceptionally friendly and professional.
Miraji has a huge depth of knowledge about Tanzania's people, wildlife, plants and the national parks that we visited. He was very passionate about providing a truly individualized Safari experience for us, and his added sense of humour will be sorely missed.
For a budget tour, we still felt like we were living in luxury. Each day David provided 3 delicious and hearty meals, plus heaps of snacks, juice and fruit. David also was totally friendly and accommodating to all our needs, we couldn't have asked for more and we will miss his heart warming smile.
The campsites we stayed at were Nsya at Lake Manyara, Seronera at Serengeti, and Simba at Ngorongoro. Each campsite was tidy and clean, and it was beautiful to fall asleep to the sounds of the African bush with the stars above you. We also spent one night at Chaka Camp which was very luxurious and the food was superb.
We will be recommending Rupia Adventure to all our friends and family. If you are considering a safari look no further, this is the company to travel with.
We love Tanzania! Thank you Rupia Adventure for making it so special.

Perfect safari with great guides!
Review
We had an unforgettable 7-days safari during our Christmas holiday. We arrived with high expectations, and left with all of them more than fulfilled. Every single one in our group of eight (of all ages; we're in our 20s, 40s, 50s and a 3 year old toddler) feel we've had an experience of a lifetime. This was also thanks to our two great guides; Miraji and Erasto. They did an excellent job by being knowledgable, finding the god spots, understanding what we needed and would enjoy, and going out of their way to give us the optimal safari experience. Thank you so much! We highly recommend Rupia Adventure, and especially their great guides Miraji and Erasto!

Excellent
The safari experience with Rupia's was excellent and this is clearly a very well run company which gave me confidence to pay via bank transfer to save on the credit card charges. The trip to Tarangire in Feb 12 was a really great experience, the only negative was the fact we never saw Lion's and I later found out that seeing Lion's in Tarangire at certain times of the year was rare - probably should have done my homework. Angel, who I communicated with from Rupia's was really helpful and fast in getting back to me and she helped facilitate a great trip for myself and the 13 strong group I took.
