Excellent
Emmanuel was very helpful from start to finish. We did a 5 day safari and it was excellent. Our transfer picked us up at the airport and drove us to our hotel in Arusha. Emmanuel met us there the following morning where he explained each day again to us about the safari. The accommodation/food was lovely. Our guide was also very nice and answered any questions we had. Emmanuel met us again in our hotel in Arusha once the safari was finished. Overall it was a great experience. Emmanuel is very professional.

Very pleasant and obliging
Very happy with the overall service from Crater Explorers, Emmanuel was very friendly from the beginning and very obliging to all our requests. We chose the 5-day Safari, were met at the airport and brought to a hotel in Arusha overnight. Emmanuel met us himself to go through everything the next morning before heading off on our safari. Our guide was very friendly, and the journey was very comfortable.
We had a small issue with timings on day 3 but that was quickly resolved once we contacted Emmanuel and he more than made up for it.

Amazing Safari! Recommend
We booked a 3 days 2 nights Safari (tarangire, mayanra and ngorogoro)
It was the best experience, the guide was amazing, full of knowledge and experience and we didn't give up until we saw everything we wanted to see. The lodges we stayed in were also very good.
Great Communication And Experience
The safari experience was very low stress. Emmanuel was super communicative during the booking process and we were the first ones picked up at the airport. The hotels were new and clean before and after the safari. On the actual safari, we had a very professional driver with 20 years experience, and an excellent chef who cooked three meals a day. We chose to tent/lodge which was an awesome option. Seeing zebras walk around the tents at night and the giraffes behind the dining hall was awesome. There are some massive companies in the safari business, but Emmanuel gave us a great experience.

Exceptional
We had a wonderful time ! Our guide, David, was great and way too nice. He was very patient and full of information.
Food was amazing thanks to our amazing chef.
Emmanuel was super helpful, got us rides from and to the airport. He even showed us around Arusha which as a plus we weren’t expecting.
Our 4 day safari was beyond our expectations, truly the experience of a lifetime.

Professional, friendly, good hospitality
Just finished from an amazong 4 days Safari with Emanual of Crater Explorer. Emanuel was very professional and friendly he accompanied us from the first moment we arrived to Arusha until we came back from Safari. Our guide or prefer to call a new friend David was amazing, professional, friendly with us. Our experience was way better than expected( Hospitality, great food and amazing accommodation). Definitely not going to be our last time here and will always contact CraterExplorer without hesitation for another Safari. Many thanks

Safari 4 days (serengeti/Tarangire/ngorongor) lodge and camp site.
We are a groupe of 6 friends Ho dreamed of doing a safari for so long.
We choose crater explorer for our first African safari ! We were not at all disappointed but rather very pleased.
Emmanuel is a very good host who listened and met everything we asked.
He met us at the airport drove us to our hôtel in arusha and spent the hole day with us.
He gives very good advices for where to buy things etc.
The day after we met our guide david. A very good human being who knows his ways around the parks. He took us to serengeti, Tarangire and ngorongoro. He gave us very good informations along the way and toke good care of us. Frankly we couldn’t ask for a better guide.
The food was delicious, we had some home cooked meals even in the wilderness.
We stayed at marrera mountain view lodge for our first night than seronera wild life and simba camp. Frankly, the lodges exceeded our expectations!
I highly recommend crater explorer for a safari for their hospitality, good price and good humour.
Well organized
We lived with Crater Explorer Tours and Safaris the most magical experience of our lives.
Everything was well organized, sleeping in the tents in the camps in the middle of the animals was incredible, the guide was great and the chef prepared very good dishes for us.
We saw a lot of animals in 3 days, much more than we could have imagined.
I recommend 100%, very good value for money!

Tanzania and its nature was great but we had some bad experience with tour guys
First of all, I loved Tanzania and everything I saw and I experienced during my trip. You can book any tours via here (I mean this website not th tour company) its really perfect. I had 4 days tour but I think 2 or 3 days would be really enough. Don’t waste your money and days for extra 1-2 day.
Our first day, our car broken and they gave us back up car. It was full of dust, we couldn’t even breathe. Also, with new car we had a new driver for that day. He driven car so fast (our speed was 3 times more then the others). Even our warning he just drive fast and it wasn’t safe. After the arriving camp site we waited more then 3 hours to eat and get into our tent. Every other groups ate their dinner and went to their tent and we just waited outside with nothing (no food, no tent, not even chair we just waited ). Anyway we asked where is our tents and where is our driver to every responsible person over there and they told us oh he will come in 30 mins every time. And after 3-4 hours they gave us tent which I should have my own tent but I shared with stranger. At midnight they told us they never talked with driver -they said they talked with him and he will come in 30 min severel times- and they told us to go to sleep. Also we didn’t have morning plan because we didn’t have driver. In the afternoon our driver came but we had same problems everyday. Our car broken 3 times, no body try to explain anything, we always went to campsite latest and started to tour every morning latest. It was really bad experience in that way.
PS: You can buy cheapest tour for same program because people in my group we all bought same tour from different operators. For the same tour we paid different amounts (there was a 250 dollars difference me and a guy). So with the over 4 stars operator you can choose cheaper one
