Serious company !
We did 3 days safari and it was very perfect.
We see all we want to see and with a very good organisation.
The lodge also was incredible.
The communication with Emmanuel was great, he is available to answer to all your questions.

It was a great safari
Was fantastic experience! I did the camping because I wanted to have the full adventure experience. We drove a long way the first day, but we still saw a bunch of stuff including a leopard along the way. Second day was in serengeti. Amazing place! Saw the big five by lunchtime, though the rhino was a long ways away. Watched a lion going after a little gazelle who had just freed himself from the mud right by our truck and a ton of real world interaction. Not like the zoo at all!
The third day we spent in ngorongoro crater. They had a ton of wildebeest and zebra and we saw them all interacting with each other and the predators as well. There were three lions defending a kill from jackals by the side of the road, and we watched some hyenas unsuccessfully hunt some zebras nearby.
The fourth day we went to ngirengiri or however you spell it lol. Not as good, but still saw a lot of elephants and giraffes with their babies up close. Probably the closest of the three parks. And the animals were much more vocal in this park.
The guide Ndalu was very knowledgeable and funny. The chef Don was shockingly good. I really think those of us who camped economy ate better than the two people in our party who stayed at the fancier campus. Really, really good dinners. I didn't even want breakfast in the morning, but I ate it anyway lol
Just a good time. Emanuel and Noel are great guys and I expect them to be one of the more successful tour companies in the near future. Emanuel actually drove all the way out to moshi from arusha to pick me up and drop me off. What kind of business owners do that?? -Peter

Unforgettable experience!
I had amazing 6 days, 5 nights exploring the different parks of Northern Tanzania. I saw many many animals, also very close by (only 1-2 meters away) which was absolutely breathtaking! I also saw lions hunting a prey and many baby animals. The sunset at Serengeti and sunrise at Ngorongoro are absolutely amazing!
I traveled solo and did a joined group safari. For 5 days I was with one group and the last day I joined another group with another driver. I slept in lodges while the others were camping so some time was spent dropping off and picking up everyone and prepping the car with the tent equipment. This wasn't clear to me from the start. I expected to be with the same group the whole trip and thought we were sleeping in the same places. However, the way they do things makes sense so everyone gets the package they want. This could have been communicated more clearly beforehand, but I also didn't ask.
In the end I wasn't bothered by it and the group I traveled with as well as all the drivers were great people! Also Emanuel clarified all my questions on the way since he was quick to answer my messages.
Big thank you would go to Saleem, the driver for 4 days, since he delivered everything he promised and we saw more than could ever hope for! Mussa and Penda were also great drivers and I had wonderful conversations with them. They were very happy to share information about their country!

Simply perfect!
We did Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro in 4 days and the experience was simply perfect! I did the camping and my two trip mate did the lodge. We saw the Big Five and much more. Beyond expectation. The operation was excelent: Emanuel is the guy, our guide/driver Floride is great and Tito is the best chef in the whole continent. Asante sana to the three of them! I strongly recomment Crater Explorer.

An unforgettable experience
During the first contact Emmanuel was very responsive, he detailed the program and answered all our questions.
The day of arrival Emmanuel picked us up at Arusha airport to drop us off at the hotel for departure the next day.
During the safari the guides (Steve and Aron) were very attentive and did everything to make sure we had an unforgettable experience.
Chef Pius entertained us throughout. A real delight at every meal.
I highly recommend, it's a safe bet to go with them.

An amazing 4 day safari!!
We went on a 4 day safari (Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro) camping. Emanuel was very responsive before our trip to answer all our questions. He also managed the airport transfers at the beginning and end and we were able to stay in a hotel for 2 nights before and after the safari to accommodate our flight schedule. During the whole safari we had an excellent cook (named Pius) who prepared all the meals for us during the day, it was super good, well done! Plus I am gluten intolerant and he adapted all my meals!
To finish, we saw the big 5! Incredible and unforgettable!!!
I recommend the agency Crater Explorer

Unforgettable Safari by Crater Explorer
I had a fantastic experience with Crater Explorer. The 4 days Safári was perfectly organised, especially the guide they providided, Godson Malisa, who was outstanding. Also, communication with the office is very easy and they rapidly answered the many questions I had. So, I strongly advice Crater’s service.
