Awsome experience
After climbing mt Kilimanjaro januari 2019 it was time for another chalence. This time I decided to do mt Meru. And I am not regretting, This time I did the trip with Rupia Adventure. This company managed by Matthias Rupia is well experienced and made together with his crew my climbing to an unforgettable
Experience. Thanks guys for making this posible.

Tour operator with unreliable equipment and trust issues
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...

Our tour operator was informative and hospitable.
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!

Incredible team that will make sure you achieve what you are looking for from the experience.
My partner and I had the most amazing trek with the Rupia team which was well organised by Mathias before the trip, during and at the end! Our guides Frank and Gideon were not only very experienced and knowledgeable, they were amazing company and looked after us thoroughly throughout the 7 day trek. This was also assisted by the incredible porter team who carried us along the way -special shout out needs to go to David who cooked the most amazing fresh food throughout the 7 days and Samora who provided us everything we need, hot drinks, food, snacks and hot water for washing!! There was always a great energy amongst the team and after we made the summit, there was a warm welcome at the end! The Machame trail was spectacular, challenging and rewarding and we couldn’t have done it without Rupia! Asante Asana !

Reliable, friendly, offering great experience
I had a full day Safari to Arusha National Park, including a 2 hours walking safari. We saw buffalos, many giraffes, colobus monkeys, warthogs in a wonderful landscape with Mount Meru in the distance. The packed lunch was delicious and the guide very helpful. Pick up from and drop off at Hotel was punctual Good Landcruiser Safari vehicle. Value for money was good.

Great trekking on Mt. Meru
We had a great Trekking experience to the summit of Mt. Meru with Rupia Adventure. Organisation with Matt was easy and our team for the Trekking was also very nice. Our chief guide Frank has guided us safely to the summit. Also the rest of the team was very nice, especially our assistant guide Gideon.
4 out of 5 stars because of the tipping policy. Don't get me wrong, its highly common in every agency but it was a little bit too pushy.
But, the trek is fun and the sunrise views to Kilimanjaro are stunning. I can recommend Rupia Adventure for doing it.

Unfortgettable experience
My trek to Mount Meru was very well-run with reasonable prices. Matt was responsive via WhatsApp in the lead up to departure. The team, including our amazing guide Maziku were professional, kind and knowledgeable. They cared that I had a great experience and offered to go above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and safe throughout. The food was healthy and delicious and although summit day was hard, it was totally worth it to see the sunrise behind Mt Kilimanjaro. Thank you, Rupia Adventures for a once in a lifetime experience!

Best Company on the mountain
Rupia Adventures is the company to go with. what an amazing trip planned down to the last detail. I went up with 2 other groups that had different companies and they both envious of me. I had the best food and a guide that was with me the entire way. These guys really are the best.
