Reviews
Exceptional at guiding us through the safari and knowledgeable of what to expect. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I am a person who was very apprehensive about going on a safaris. However, I felt safe and the animals were in their natural habitat it was such an amazing experience that it would have been huge mistake to miss out on. The tour guide was a five star, really in my eyes a ten all day and everyday. Now the food engineer prepared ten star course meals also. Oh my gosh the food was not just food but a taste buds experience. Top Notch!!! Great memories were made that will last many generations.
Great experience
We had a great safari, in Tarangire and Ngorongoro. We were able to see so many animals! A special thanks to Emanuel and Charles for organizing the safari and have us had such a wonderful time!

Fabulous Safari thanks to Emanuel and John! I recommend crater explorer!
We did 4 days of Safari, we started with Tarangire, next Seregenti and finally Ngongoro. It was amazing, my friend and I would have unforgettable memories of this trip! Emanuel who planned the safari was really kind and attentive, as John, our guide during the safari. We had the chance to see the big five! John is a fabulous guide, he always took the time to explain everything. we spent a really good time with him and the chef cook Emanuel (he cooked everyday for us very very good meals).
I recommend Crater Explorer and I hope I will do an other safari with them!
Thanks again to Emanuel, John and Emanuel (the cook)!

Excellent
First of all, if you are wondering (like us) if Crater Explorer Tours and Safaris is reliable, I can assure you that despite the fears we were followed from beginning to end. Emanuel was very kind, he guided us by message and answered all our questions and requests remotely. When we arrived at the airport we were greeted by the driver who took us to Arusha, where Emanuel himself explained the Safari program to us.
Personally we chose the 5-day safari and warned, under the guidance of John - our guide as knowledgeable as he was kind - infinite animal species. When we also spotted the fourth and fifth of the Big 5, leopard and rhino, he was more excited than us. Emanuel our cook, on the other hand, delighted us for days with dishes that we already miss. The food is good, cooked with love, and quite varied. Tanzanian customs enter your heart and you end up getting used to them. Especially to smiles, accompanied by the inevitable ‘Hakuna Matata’.
To do at least once in your life!

Amazing Safari experience
We were thoroughly impressed with the whole Safari experience. There were no hidden fees, the camp sites were better than we thought and the whole staff was just very nice and professional. It was all very well organised from hotel before and after safari to meals and toilet breaks during the trip. The guide was excellent, friendly and always adapting to what the group needed. The chef was wonderful as well - we all loved the food we were getting every single day. We'd definitely recommend the safari with this company!

Unforgettable experience
Our safari with Crater Safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro was truly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure! The team exceeded all expectations, going above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience. Emmanuel was incredibly accommodating, attentive, and passionate, making sure every aspect of our trip was perfect.
Not only was the food amazing—fresh, delicious, and plentiful—but the team also worked tirelessly to show us the incredible wildlife these parks have to offer. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, we were incredibly lucky to see the Big 5, along with countless other animals. It felt like a dream come true!
I can’t recommend Crater Safari highly enough. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and passion for creating unforgettable experiences made this journey truly magical. If you’re planning a safari, look no further—Crater Safari is the way to go!
Great overall service
I booked a Kilimanjaro climb throuh Crater Explorer and was very satisfird with communication, price, personal attention, team of guides, cook and porters and the entire experience provided. The team was very experienced and took great care of me throughout the trip. Pricing was transparent, communication clear and included hotel accomodation before and after the climb as well as airport pick up. Tour operator arranged for sleeping bag rental and personally came to the hotel to discuss details and make guide introductions. I had a wonderful experiemce.

Well organised and excellent value
I can’t recommend crater explorers highly enough, if you are searching for the best place to book your safari trip on a budget look no further.
Emmanuel was kind, helpful and answered all of my queries promptly. The trip was well organised, with everything taken care of for you so you don’t have to stress and can just fully enjoy the experience. We saw 4 of the big 5, including some intense encounters with elephants and lions, whilst always feeling safe. You can’t believe how many wild animals you see in the Serengeti and Ngorogoro is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been
The campsites were ideal with the tents pre erected with good facilities. The food was plentiful tasty and clean thanks to chef Titus. Our guide Lewis was knowledgeable, friendly and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying it.
I think the pricing is with crater is very competitive, I was worried that it might be cheaper to book in Tanzania itself but I checked with a few local places once I landed and was only quoted much higher prices than paid with Emmanuel. Also from asking around whilst on safari it seems crater explores do the best deal

They helped me make big 5 dream came true
This is one of the best operators in Arusha. The driver and guide is very excellent and experienced. He helped me find the big 5 and got closer to the animal in a friendly way as possible as he can. I appreciated his help. Emanuel, the manager is kind and helpful. He tried his best to meet my requirements! Thank you for your service!
