Amazing service
We initially contacted Rupia Adventure direct to inquire about safari options. We received a prompt reply from Janniken who worked with us to accommodate our exact requirements and put together a wonderful safari experience. Communication in the lead-up to our travel was responsive and very helpful, which gave us full confidence ahead of traveling over to Tanzania from the India. Upon arrival in Kilimanjaro, we were met by a Rupia driver and given a full briefing at the Rupia office in Arusha. For the safari, we were taken through the Ngorongoro crater and Serengeti National Park by our driver Elasto. Elasto was extremely polite and helpful, and also very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the animals and safari experience. He really made very positive difference to our trip and ensured that we not only spotted all the animals we had hoped to see, but also arrived on time and smoothly at all of our accommodation, whilst never feeling rushed to move on from a particular location. All in all an unforgettable and fantastic experience which we'll never forget. I would highly recommend contacting Rupia Adventure for a quote on your safari; we found them very cost competitive, provided the best service in planning the safari and then found the quality of the actual experience, vehicle, driver and accommodation to be exceptional. Thank you for making our honeymoon safari experience everything we hoped it would be and more!

Amazing guide and adventure!
Isa Jackson was our safari guide and he was amazing! My sister, myself, and parents undertook our trip starting at Maun and had game drives throughout Chobe as well as Moremi game reserve. It was an amazing experience and we were able to see lions, leopards, elephants, giraffes, hippos, African wild dogs, crocodiles, hawks, baboons, vervet monkeys, and many different birds. With the lions, we were able to be within ten feet, which was frightening to say the least.
Although seeing the animals was a great experience, what sets any safari apart is the guide. Extremely Wild Safaris has a great guide in Isa. He is very knowledgeable of animal behavior, scientific understanding of the geological processes taking place in the Okavango Delta, and has a great ability to track and find animals. An enthusiastic guide, he made our wonderful trip truly once and a lifetime. Thank you!

Highly Recommended!!! Best in hospitality, management and professionalism.
So the team Elieza, Jumma, Michael, and Jackson delivered what they promised. It is tough to choose between so many tour operators and eventually, you need to trust your guts before you book one of them. Being a vegetarian they took good care of my needs when it came to food. The accommodation was simply decent. Our guide Jumma made sure we see all the big, ugly and small five. Due to his patience, we also got to see a hunt and it was once in a lifetime experience. Keep up the good work guys.

Fantastic trip seeing over 100 species of animals and birds.
Charles booked our trip and was very helpful in every step from timely communications to helping us get our Visas. The lodging and safari camps were equal to or better than our expectations. The 12 day itinerary: Amboseli, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti, Masai Mara and Lake Naivasha was perfect for our group of six. The guides were informative and helpful.

Great choices of accommodation and guides and impressive flexibility.
The tour totally lived up to our expectations. We had already been to Zimbabwe some years ago but hadn’t been to safari lodges in Botswana, Zambia or South Africa. I especially wanted to see rhinos as we saw none the last time. So even though we were only in Zambia for 1 night we saw 8 White Rhinos!!! Darren did a terrific job of organising our 2 week trip - starting in Joberg and ending in Cape Town. The lodges were small and personal attention was terrific. The food good to excellent. We loved things like hippos munching on the grass of our safari lodge back yard. Combining both the river and land in Botswana was superb. This is the second time we have travelled with Darren - the other trip was Morocco and we loved the accommodation and experiences there too - so we didn’t hesitate to ask Darren if he organised Southern Africa trips too.

Best guide ever. I had a lovely time, thanks to Timeline safaris.
My husband and I just came from an amazing and wonderful safari in Kenya’s Masai Mara and Tanzania’s Serengeti.
We had the best moments of our honeymoon! Timeline tours and Safaris was the perfect planner for this trip. We couldn’t simply ask for more.
The game viewing exceeded our expectations, thumbs up to our experienced guide Joseph This guide is “hawk eyed” as he can spot wildlife from a far. We highly recommend him!
Due to his vast experience, we were able to see the big five ,(Lions, Rhino ,elephants ,leopard and herds of buffaloes), plus many more animals and different species of birds.
We were interested in watching both the big and smaller animals. We were fortunate to learn more of the different animals. Of such a surprise to me was to know that there are different types of Giraffes and Zebras!!!!!
The accommodation we stayed in were all 5* and high quality and in serene locations. We were looking for such lodges which were safe and clean. We didn’t want any disappointment to our honeymoon. The staff were friendly and warm. We truly felt like “little kings”. I recommend the facilities if you choose to have some that needed luxury.
We had a balloon ride safari and the experience of watching the animals from an aerial view was just amazing!!!We saw a big family of elephants and that was just but an awesome experience.
We loved the experience we had in a Maasai village, we were able to socialize with a few Maasai’s who spoke some English. The people in the village were friendly. We were thrilled on how they lit fire using traditional method.
I highly recommend this company to any honeymooner, individual, families or group of people wishing to travel to Kenya and Tanzania.
Thanks to Joseph our guide and all those who made this trip come true!!
