Amazing day trip to Ngorongoro
I made a day trip to Ngorongoro departing from Arusha. Omar was our driver and he did an excellent job. The roads inside and outside the Ngorongoro crater area as well as the 4x4 vehicle used were modern and comfortable. We had been a group of 8 people in the car - some of them were on a multi day safari. I met the others of the group for breakfast in a town close to the crater. We entered the crater at about 9.30 am and left at 4 pm. That gave us enough time to see many birds, zebras, wildebeests, bonobos, … and all the animals of the big five except for the leopard. The scenery of Ngorongoro in itself is already worth the visit. Having our picnic with delicious food at a lake was just the icing on the cake.
When I come to Tanzania in a few years, I would go to the Ngorongoro crater with Mafie Adventures again.

An amazing journey with wonderful guides and excellent food
I read some reviews about Mafie adventures when I was researching budget safaris. They were the first to get back to me with details of the several tour operators I contacted. I chose a two day safari to Tarangire and Ngorongoro. For those two days, everything was included. I expected a boxed lunch that we would eat in the Safari jeep. But instead, we had a beautiful meal of rice, grilled chicken, and sautéed vegetables in a delicious sauce. All laid out on a table cloth under the shade of trees at a picnic site in Tarangire, and then the following day by a small lake inside the Ngorongoro Crater. There was plenty of cold bottled water, Coca Cola, and even Kilimanjaro beer and a bottle of Tanzanian Dodoma red wine. But maybe you’d also like to know about the game drives and the guides. Simion was our guide in Tarangire. He was fun, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and professional. He scanned the radio for word of animal sightings. Though luck played a part in seeing all of the animals we did(leopards, cheetahs, secretary bird, ostrich, and more), Simion worked hard to get us to the right place at the right time. Then there was our guide Matcha for Ngorongoro. He was friendly and very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna. He made our day in the crater a wonderful and relaxing experience, somehow exhilarating when in pursuit of seeing yet another of the big five, all while creating a warm and familial feel among our random group in the jeep that day. The lodging in Mto Wa Mbu (the point between the two parks I visited) was clean and comfortable, and again, the food was delicious and served in very generous portions! And I love to eat. So I was pleased.
I was a total newbie to African travel, and the communication and organization put me at ease and allowed me to just relax and effortlessly enjoy the adventure.
I had such a good experience on Safari, that I booked another short tour with Mafie Adventures for after my Kilimanjaro climb. And again my guide and chef were amazing, generous people. Everyone embodied the Karibu(Welcoming) spirit that I’ve come to love about Tanzania.
Go have an adventure.

One of the best out there !!
Not sure where to start to be honest as everything was just perfect !!
We started our trip with the climb of Kilimanjaro with Erastus and his team. Everything went above expectations with the guides and the cooks going the extra mile to ensure we had everything we needed during the ascent.
We then transitioned to a 10 days Safari including visits of local villages. Once again, Erastus and his team were just perfect in making every moment a great memory! They were extremely knowledgeable about both the Tanzanian culture and the wildlife. We had a blast every day in our la driver !!!
I think Erastus liked us a lot (

We saw some beautiful national parks, countless species of animals and unique landscapes. It was truly the safari experience we all dreamed about. The team that came with us (guides and cooks) was lovely and made sure we had everything we needed. I would absolutly recommand Mafie Adventures for your next trip in Tanzania!
