3 days of adventure - successful! - Rupia Adventures (Matt/Mathias the owner) really put together an amazing trip for us (and quickly!). We planned this about 4 days in advance and the experience was amazing. Ngorongoro, followed by Lake Manyara, then Tarangire. He arranged an amazing glamping experience for us at Nyikani (was a deal!) and a final hot air balloon ride with Miracle -- which was so well run. Loved our driver/guide Enock who was with us for the whole 3 days. Loved these people. Very impressed!

Excellent safari - Incredible experience. Highly recommended. They fulfilled everything promised and everything was very well organized. They offered me the same thing for double the money at other agencies. 100% recommendable.

Great safari! - An excellent safari experience: our guide, Maliaki, was superb. He was a great host, incredibly knowledgeable about the environment, dealt with a rather difficult fellow traveller with great skill and diplomacy and maintained a steady pace to the trip.

Highly recommend - 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 Safari! - I was traveling solo through Africa and tried to find options to see a range of the noteworthy parks of northeast Tanzania. Rupia offered a perfect package for this. Especially finding something as an individual at a reasonable price was difficult as many companies book private safari. Matt planned everything including lodging and airport transfers. Even helped me store some extra luggage I had before setting out. He grouped me with other travelers which was great to meet others as we set out on the three day safari. Our guide Andrew was incredible and found us all the wildlife as we went through the three parks. He knew every answer to questions and knew the parks like the back of his hand. We had amazing run ins with elephant and lion very close. Will never forget it

Safaris very good but accommodation conditions poor - The safari itself is well organized with the 3 parks quite different which avoids monotony, our guide is very friendly and speaks French. Some downsides however: - payment conditions: Matt would like to deal directly (without going through Tripadvisor to avoid the commission). It was very urgent, unpleasant limit on our WhatsApp exchanges to obtain his deposit, deposit difficult to transmit due to the fact that Rupia does not have a bank account accepting WU transfers - accommodation => We had agreed with Matt that we had to go to the Sunbright campsite. Finally, without warning and without apologizing, we found ourselves in a very low-end tent camp with shared toilets. After calling Matt, we were moved to a solid hotel but where the electricity and hot water were very uncertain.

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...
