Kilimanjaro and Safari with Rupia Adventure.!
5/5



Rupia Adventure is a local agency, with no European intermediary, and that's exactly what we were looking for. The exchange with Jolanda was very easy, she was always available to answer all our questions quickly. Everything was very well organized from start to finish, whether for transfers or hotels.

KILIMANJARO
We climbed Kilimanjaro Machame route in 7 days. The whole team were great and caring to us from start to finish, with lots of attention throughout the stay.
The tent was very comfortable with good mattresses. The food was excellent with 3 hot meals a day, and plenty of it.
The ascent would not have been possible without our 2 extraordinary guides Laurent and Holly and without all the superb team of cooks and porters: Elisha the future guide, Omary the cook, Nyati, Issa, Cathbert, Juma, Alvin, Ibrahim and Emmanuel .
It has been a wonderful week by your side. Beyond a trek on the Golden Roof of Africa, it is a real human experience. We will not forget you. Neither yeyeeeee!

SAFARI
We made 5 days of camping safari (one day in Tarangire, 3 days in Serengeti and one day in Ngorongoro crater) with our French speaking driver guide Mustapha and our cook David.
Mustapha, a real ace at the wheel, allowed us to see many animals and observe them for as long as we wanted. We didn't expect to see so many and so close it was amazing.
The car was very comfortable, as were the tents we slept in. The campsite allowed us to be as close as possible to the animals and to hear them at night. Finally, David's meals were delicious.

We had an unforgettable experience with the Rupia Adventure team, whether for the ascent of Kilimanjaro or the Safari. We recommend them 1000%, you can go with your eyes closed and your stay will be amazing!

We loved our 5 night, 6 day safari with Rupia Adventure. Matt was reliable and always responded quickly. We were able to see all of the sights and animals that we wanted, and enjoyed the food too. I would book with Rupia Adventure again.

Amazing Solo Safari
5/5

I recently had the privilege of experiencing a private safari in the Serengeti, and I can honestly say it was an unforgettable adventure, made even more memorable by the impeccable organization and the outstanding service provided!
From the moment I was picked up, everything was taken care of seamlessly. The transportation, tours, and hotel arrangements were all perfectly organized, allowing me to simply enjoy every moment without any worries. I even forgot which day it was 😁
The hotels we stayed in were fantastic, offering a comfortable and luxurious stay after long days of exploring the stunning wilderness.

A special shout-out goes to my tour guide, Miraji. He truly went above and beyond to ensure I had the most incredible experience. His knowledge of the Serengeti’s wildlife and environment was unmatched, and he made sure I had front-row views of all the incredible animals the park has to offer. Miraji’s passion for the land and its creatures was evident in everything he did, and he ensured that every moment of the safari was filled with awe and excitement. Thanks to him, I was able to witness some of the most breathtaking wildlife moments, from lions to a family of elephants passing by, cheetahs with their cubs…

If you're looking to immerse yourself in the magic of the Serengeti, I highly recommend this experience. Miraji and the entire team provided a top-tier adventure that I'll cherish forever

We used Rupia for our Kilimanjaro trek and they were great. Very well organised and the guides were terrific, insightful and supportive. Couldn't have done it without them.

Amazing Safari
5/5

My Family and l recently returned from a 5-day trip with Rupia Adventure and what fun we had! Every details was taken care of so we could sit back and enjoy the journey. We went to Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater. Tarangire was our favourite as we were able to get up close and personal with so many elephants! We stayed in lodges and it was great to cool off by the pool at the end of each day. The food was great and our Guide Nico made sure they catered for the kids - no request was too big. Nico was so patient and kind and he was always happy to stop for a toilet break or to find ice cream When we were making the booking, Marieta in the office suggested we add a few extra days in Arusha at the end of our safari and I'm so glad we did. We relaxed at our hotel and enjoyed someday tours and booked a day safari in the Arusha National Park. We even got to meet Matt himself as he was at our hotel for a meeting!

Thank you Rupia Adventure for the trip of a lifetime! We will be back to explore more of your beautiful country.

Very good safari
5/5

We did the safari with 2 couples of friends in Spanish and we had an incredible experience. Our guide Prince was attentive to everything and explained everything we saw. In addition, our cook Omare prepared a delicious meal for all of us. As for the price, it was quite good.

We had a great experience hiking up Mount Meru! Our guide, Laurent and the entire crew took great care of us and made sure we made it safely to the summit. Everything was really professional!
The trek was better than we expected and we can really recommend!

The review below is the personal opinion of joao and not that of SafariBookings.
Tour operator with unreliable equipment and trust issues
2/5

Having booked a family safari trip, we were provided with a malfunctioning vehicle. Indeed, the first thing we did after being picked up at the hotel in Arusha was to go to the mechanic to fix the gear....a full morning lost...shameful and not professional at all to be greeted with a non-conforming car...

Afterwards, when accessing Manyara Park, we were informed that the entrance was blocked due to severe rain. This is understandable. What is not acceptable is that Rupia kept the USD300 of the ticket entrance and, until today, did not return the money....shameful and again not professional...

I definitely not recommend Rupia and, in particular, found that Matt did not honour his word.
Bad omens for a tourism business...

I highly recommend Rupia! My sister and I went on a 3 day safari and had an amazing experience.

The communication with Matt throughout the planning process helped me to feel confident and at ease. Our guide was helpful, informative and hospitable. I am so grateful we landed on Rupia for our Safari experience!
