If my family is looking for safari, I definitely recommend crater explorer without hesitation
I had safari with them 3days in serengeti.
I got chance to see tons of animals including big5, they drive you to the best place to enjoy and take great photo. They are very responsible, open to any questions, willing to help. Reasonable price, the experience they give worths much more.
Highly recommended. Don't waste time hesitating, contact Emanuel first and he will save your time.
The perfect safari experience in every way
I went for the private 4 day 4 parks tour with Crater Explorer. I chose them based on the excellent reviews and I'm so glad I did. Emmanuel is really helpful, responsive and great at communicating. He's so easy going and flexible with the planning. He picked me up at the airport and I went straight on the tour with my guide Baraka, all very smooth. The itinerary is perfect, I visited Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Serengeli and Tarangire, each have their characteristics. I was worried the itinerary was too aggressive but I wanted to see it all. Emmanuel reassued me that it'll be fine and he is absolutely right. The 4 days were packed but it never felt rushed. Perfect for those short on time but greedy to want it all.
Baraka is a great guide, so skilled at spotting animals and getting into prime position. We ticked off the Big 5, seeing the tree climbing lions up close, encountering 2 leopards in 2 days, driving alongside a cheetah and witnessed the Great Migration! Baraka is very knowledgeable about wildlives but he is also fun to spend the days with. He is very attentive and thoughtful and I felt really well looked after.
Our picnic lunches were of envy. The accommodation was well chosen. The tented lodge was memorable, sitting by the camp fire with animal noises in the background.
I had such an amazing time from start to finish. It's perfect. Thank you Emmanuel and Baraka!

Best tour ever!!
Great safari saw all of the big five and many other animals. Super friendly staff and great communication. Amazing value for money with an airport pick up and drop off as well as hotel accommodation before and after the safari.

Excellent tour operator from start to finish
Absolutely fantastic safari. Emmanuel was so great at communicating with us throughout the trip and the safari was better than I ever could have imagined. Our Driver Mike knew all the best spots and was very friendly. Would definitely recommend this company.

Wonderful Safari Tour!
We had the best time on our safari trip with Crater Explorers! Emanuel was very helpful in coordinating our trip, and he answered all of our questions thoroughly and in a timely manner. We felt confident that we would have a good experience even before it started. The accommodations were fantastic! We stayed at a lodge and a tented camp, and they both felt luxurious. Emanuel, the chef, prepared amazing food for us and we never went hungry. We always looked forward to his meals! Frank, our tour guide, made the safari so memorable. He knew all the good spots in the park, and his knowledge about the animals and their behaviors and habitats really elevated an already amazing experience. I will never forget how Frank skillfully tracked a leopard so we could see it up close. We would highly recommend Crater Explorers, and if you’re lucky enough to have Frank and Emanuel on the trip, you will be guaranteed a wonderful time.

Great safari experience!
We loved our safari experience with Crater Explorer! We did 4 day, 3 nights safari in Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire with budget camping. Our guide Frank was very skilled and shared us lots of interesting facts about the animals, local culture and nature. He could spot the animals from far away and drive us to just the right places for taking amazing pictures and videos. Also, we really enjoyed the delicious meals by our chef Emanuel. The accommondations were basic (just as you can expect from the budget-friendly version) but clean and nice. I can highly recommend this company for safari.

Great safari experience
This group experience was close to perfection. Emanuel was a great host, always in contact, before and during the safari. The tour guide who was in charge of the safari, Jackson, is a very experienced guide and very interesting person providing an unexpected and surprising safari overall experience showing us the big five and some of the most beautiful scenarios we’ve ever seen. The food was good and we were accompanied also by our personal cooker, Miron, making some local food and a one of a kind pizza!
We stayed the overnights at site camps sleeping in tents 2 of the nights, but Emanuel can provide superior accommodation if required.
Will surely return in the future

Best ever solo experience
This was one of my best trips ever, and I have been travelling a lot! Everything worked to perfection: as a solo traveller, I was quite aprehensive about being left alone at pick-up places, of having a hard time with the culture etc. But, hey! Never felt better taken care of: everything quite timely; beautiful, comfortable and stylish lodges, very (very!!!!!!) nice staff, and little treats as surprises here and there.
Crater explorers staff and manager, ansante sana (thank you) for providing me with an unforgettable experience, and, Frank, you are simply the best guide!!! How come you know everything?

Emanuel is very responsive and well organized.
The tour was well organized and Emanuel even customized the tour for our party of 6 for an additional fee.
Our guide, Jackson, was extremely resourceful and friendly. He knew some great, isolated spots in the busy Serengeti park.
