Amazing Adventure
I have just returned from a 10 day safari with Crystal Safaris in Uganda. Barbara, helped me to create my tailor trip that was personalised to my interests She answered to my many questions quickly and she told me whatever I have to know before starting my trip.
Our guide, Jonah, is a very good guide, he told us about all the wildlife we saw, about the areas we were visited and about life in Uganda.
The vehicle we had it was spacious with a pop-up roof that was ideal for game driving.
I stayed at 2 of their lodges The Gorilla Safari Lodge in the Rushaga area of Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, where I went on a gorilla trek, and The Crater Safari Lodge near Kibale National Forest where I went on a Chimpanzee trek . Both lodges are nice, staff has been very kind and nice with us and careful to our necessity.

Very well looked after.
Andy was great. The sea safari was not suitable for my children aged 11 and 13 and the car journeys were too long, but I take responsibility for that! Wayne was a superb guide and Sabi Sands was absolutely amazing, apart from the bugs...

I also like the fact that he was always available whenever I needed to talk to him. I would definitely recommend him. He's an asset to the company.

Above and Beyond Expectation
With a short amount of time to make arrangements for a safari before volunteering at a hospital in Tanzania, we immediately felt comfortable with Angel and Mathias, the communication and arrangements. We relied on their experience for the best trip for five days and we were not disappointed; we only wish we had more time. Everyone at Rupia Adventure will make you comfortable and do whatever it takes to make your adventure top-notch and unforgettable.
We started in Tarangire National Park and saw an amazing number and variety of animals with the close up experience of a small herd of elephant going around both sides of the Land Cruiser. As we entered the Serengeti National Park, there did not seem to be any wildlife around, but as Humphrey took us further in, it couldn't have been more alive. The number of zebra, gazelle, reed buck, impala, hyena, etc. is amazing. We saw a female lion miss a zebra kill because of a split second hesitation of which of two zebra to take down. A courting male lion was clueless to the pride preparing to take down some zebra approaching, thus he ruined the hunt with a growl to the lioness as she approached the pride. Humphrey saw a leopard (the second of the trip) and as we approached she crouched, and pounced, but missed the rabbit she was after. She spotted a reed buck but was also unable to successfully make a kill. In the Ngorongoro Crater another drama occurred involving a pride of 16 lions, 5 more male lions, buffalo preventing an attack on a lone buffalo, and a group of hyena circling and killing a wart hog all near the hippo pool.
Elasto is an excellent guide and eager to share his knowledge of the animals, the eco-system, and Tanzania while spotting animals and making the whole experience fun. His English is outstanding as he can discuss classes of rock, their formations, and try to confound you with riddles.
Elasto and Mathias went above and beyond to make sure we had accommodations at the end of our safari when communication with people outside their company did not come through. We will be forever grateful to Mathias for his persistence to communicate on our behalf with hospital personnel and shuttling us into town for supplies to make us comfortable as we began our volunteer time. Meredith also helped us connect with Miraji who made three weekend day trips unforgettable as well.
