Unforgettable adventure
From the very first contact, Emanuel made planning our safari completely stress-free. As first-time visitors to Africa, we had many questions, but everything was handled with professionalism and care. The entire trip was seamless, and every part of the itinerary worked flawlessly. It was an unforgettable adventure, and we couldn’t have asked for a better tour operator. Thank you, Emanuel and Crater Explorer—highly recommended!

Best Experience ever !
Our first trip to Africa exceeded every expectation we had. We were a little nervous before the trip, but Emanuel took care of absolutely everything, and every detail was perfectly organized from start to finish. Everything ran even better than we could have imagined. As they say in Tanzania, Hakuna Matata! Thank you, Emanuel, for making this such an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend Crater Explorer to anyone planning a safari.

The operator was very kind!
This was my first safari, and it turned out to be one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life! We saw so many amazing animals during the four days, including the Big Five up close.
A special thanks to our guide, Bato, whose knowledge and efforts made this trip truly incredible. Every day was exciting, and we created memories that we will cherish forever.
The food was also delicious every day, and all of the staff and operators were kind, professional, and very helpful. They even assisted us when we had trouble with transportation after the safari.
There are many safari companies to choose from, but I am so happy that I chose this one. I would highly recommend this company to my friends and family. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

Fantastic Safari + Kili Experience
Found the provider randomly on Safari bookings and had a great time!
Was able to see the big 5 + a variety of rare birds.
One of the things I appreciated was the ability to customize lodgings based on desired level of spend - I opted to camp in the wild two of the nights, but upgraded to a lodge the other two, which I thought was a good balance.
My guide was very knowledgeable, and he tailored our sightings based on the group’s bird interest, which I thought was a nice touch.
Emmanuel runs the company - it’s a family-run Tanzanian-owned business, so you don’t see the same mark ups you might from Western tour providers. Additionally, he acts essentially as a personal concierge upon arrival - shuttles you around.
He also arranged a Kilimanjaro trek for me, which was great. I was in a private group on a 7 day Lemosho route trip. It was nice having continuity between both experiences. Kilimanjaro is definitely not for the faint of heart - I struggled with the conditions, but the porters and guide did everything they could to help me summit (including carry my day pack) and ultimately I made it. Relative to some of the bigger brand names you’ll see out there (Altezza, Climb Kili) - honestly I felt like I got a pretty similar experience. I didn’t have a large group of fellow western tourists, but I got more personal time with my guide, Mike - and felt like I learned a lot more about the culture.
Overall a great option for Safari / Kili.

Emmanuel is the best there is. Takes care of the whole trip and gives an unforgettable experience!
Crater Explorers is a special company and we highly recommend it. We were a family of five coming to Tanzania for our first Safari. Emmanuel Julius catered the tour to our needs and what we were looking for and provided the best service in all ways. Charles, our guide, was the best we could ask for. He knew how to navigate the safari and find the most special wildlife, from lions to cheetahs and rhinos. He is extremely knowledgeable and patient and a great driver. Emmanuel was available throughout, taking care of the logistics, hotels, planning and adapting and making sure we got the most out of our three day safari. We highly recommend Emmanuel and Crater Explorers.
