Great experience
From the start Emanuel was very helpful and responsive. He replied quickly to all my questions and arranged everything even though I booked at the last minute due to covid uncertainty.
In country he ensured everything ran smoothly and I had everything I needed - thanks to him it was a really easy trip from when I arrived to when I left.
The safari was fantastic, we had a great experience in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorogoro seeing many animals and getting as close as we could. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and the chef cooked us some great food. Would recommend to anyone

Incredible communication and experienced what was expected
I was looking for an affordable safari and messaged many operators. Emanuel from Crater Explorer was the most attentive to my questions before booking and I was very happy with the end result. I was able to see 4/5 of the big 5 in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. I also want to shout out my excellent guide Waldon. He was awesome and made sure we didn't leave the Serengeti without seeing a leopard

I would recomend Crater Explorer and Emanuel a hundred times to anyone traveling to Tanzania.
First, Emanuel is a Tanzanian Entrepreneur, and I try to travel with local Companies for many reasons. Their knowledge of the ground and the country, their presence upon arrival. And I was amazed by Emanuel’s fast reactivity.
He answered as soon as he received my email, and then kept on Answering all my questions and doubts at any time. And always on top of everything.
I have enjoyed All what I expected from this trip and much more. And I got to see the big 5, as the driver/guide made his best to show us everything.. The food was excellent, the lodges amazing.
This is a lifetime experience everyone should have, and the kindness and amability of Emanuel, and Tanzanian people is unquestionable.
I will certainly recomend this trip and this company to ALL my family and friends. Thinking of sending my mother..

Everything was perfect
We were on a 3-day safari in the Serengeti and in the Ngorongoro Crater. Everything worked out wonderfully. The communication worked great from the start. Answers to any questions came very quickly.
We were 6 people together with others and we had plenty of space in the jeep. The car was in good condition (which unfortunately cannot be taken for granted).
Our guide Julius was very well informed via radio and always knew where there was something interesting to see. Our cook was also very good at his job, everything was delicious.
Some of our group stayed at the campsite, it can get a bit cold, especially at the Ngorongoro Crater. We had tented camp + lodge, which we LOVED.
I would definitely recommend Crater Explorer Tours.

One of the most memorable trips I've ever had!
It was a great pleasure meeting Emanuel. He is attentive, thorough, and made sure our trip was fantastic and smooth from beginning to end. His prices are fair and transparent, the quality of the safari was top-notch, and he helped with various travel details, such as arranging COVID tests to return back to the USA. Highly recommend!

Amazing experience couldn't have asked for a better safari!!!
We contacted several Safaris via WhatsApp and Emanuel was very straightforward and honest. His management, communication and understanding was unparalleled. He understands travelers needs. He set us up with an amazing driver who's experience level helped us experience the best safari I'd ever had the proviledge to be on. The chef that came with us was AMAZING! After a long day on the road there was nothing like a well prepped meal waiting for you and each meal did not disappoint.
It was an amazing experience, saw a ton of animals including the big 5 and the elusive leopard and cheetahs!
Emanuel also helped us get our Covid test for the flights home! He really went above and beyond for us!
I recommend this company to any traveler!!!
There is a reason he has so many 5 stars!

Excellent package for great prices!
We went for our honeymoon on a 4 day safari to Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro crater. We had an exceptionally great time as Emmanuel the organizer was able to get us amazing accommodations such as Serena lodge and marera valley lodge, for the price of a mid-range safari, after alot of research, this is definitely the best value for money deals we could find! As for the tour itself, the nature was overwhelming, even though we had missed the great migration, we still saw a wide of variety of animals, all of the big 5, as well as the grasping scenery that completely changes from one area to the next. All in all, the experience of a lifetime!

Amazing experience
Me and and my husband loved the safari experience. Everything was very well organised, nothing to complain about. We were a bit worried with our very early arrival and departure times, but all went well. The transfers were on time, just like all the activities during safari. We are not kind of people who like organised group experiences, but the group was very good. The guide and the cook very friendly people. Food and water are more than enough, so don’t bother getting any extra as we did (all our snacks travelled back with us). They provide you sleeping bags too, and pillows if you sleep in a tent (no extra charges). We were also slightly concerned how will that experience go, but it was perfectly fine. More comfortable than expected. But take warm clothes, one of the nights (in Ngorongoro) was very cold.
If we do safari ever again, we would chose the same company, no doubts.
