Unexpected and amazing experience - Wonderful trip with attentive and knowledgeable crew. I’ve got briefing the night before and was picked up on time. On the way to meet the rest of the group saw giraffes crossing the road, so unexpected and exciting. Super tasty lunch too. Sightings of animals and birds are amazing. From talking to others I’d suggest combining this day trip with Tarangire National Park but if you are short on time as I was, this is definitely en eye opening experience

Memorable safari with truly attentive manager - An excellent experience - the Ngorongoro crater is not to be missed! In addition to seeing many incredible animals on this safari, it was also very well organised by the team at Euphoria Safaris. Communication was smooth and they went above and beyond to make our birthday celebration special, surprising us with local gifts, flowers and even cake! Highly recommend for your trip to Tanzania.

The Crater - Extraordinary experience! Noel was our driver and if I ever take another long trip, we want him! This trip is a must see YouTube can’t touch seeing this place in person. The breakfast and lunch were set up well the only thing I could suggest is that they label the food for lunch so that vegetarians know what’s vegetarian and what’s not not the fault of Noel . Very knowledgeable about places and history that we asked him about. On the road he was a safety first guy. Thank you for the experience and we will definitely recommend this tour to people visiting Tanzania. Thank you.

Great tour - This was a wonderful experience. We were picked up from our hotel and driven to the crater. Our tour guide was great! He ensured we got to look as long as we wanted and take many pictures. We were able to see so many of the animals up close. Lunch was provided and delicious.

Spectacular day at Ngorongoro Crater - My wife and I had a spectacular visit to Ngorongoro Crater. This one-day safari was well organized, pick up was on schedule, plenty of breathtaking fauna and flora to see, guide was caring and knowledgeable, and drop off time was according to what we were told. It was truly an amazing experience that we would gladly recommend this one-day safari to anyone.

Must-see day trip - Was a really outstanding experience, you should definitely have done here! The first look over the crater alone was much more impressive than I had imagined. In the crater itself, the drivers then exchange information via radio where they can see which animals. That way you get a perfectly coordinated tour through the crater. Spoke to some other tourists who have done longer safaris, all agreed the absolute highlight is Ngorongoro. To the organization: very friendly, from initial contact to completion. Everything went smoothly. Can recommend the tour 100%!

Super Safari - We experienced a wonderful day in a breathtaking environment with lots of animals. The highlight was actually a lioness running towards our car and walking past our car at about 1 m distance. An indescribable experience! But beware of this, there is no guarantee. Our tour guide was very good and could give us a lot of information. A perfect day. Highly recommended!

Thrilling! - It was definitely thrilling experience for sure. Not just the animals but, the driver. He was speeding very fast and overtaking any car he sees. No matter where you're at. Even on the edge of crater. Even more, almost all of the seat belts were broken. So everyone had to hold on to the any convex surface of the car. That was a bit extreme.

Unprofessional, irresponsible and d not respecting - So here is my amazing professional experience with this company : supposed to have a tour of ngorongo crater i booked from viator and flying from USA to Tanzania was a little dream to visit many safari and special ngorongo mean popular, the exchange with this company was good look professional but that it’s just an impression, i wake up at 4:45am waiting for what 2 hours outside nothing strictly nothing happening, then back to my room and my chance the tour guide or I don’t know who is him send me a text with full apology that he rescued client the park was fluuded and back super late in Arusha, well honestly i will understand if he send me a text before for let me know because this issue about the fluded that’s not happening right away, so i stay a day doing nothing at my hotel, flying from USA to Tanzania for that amazing and for compensation as an apology he want to give me a tour of city that i do already or coffee tour compare to ngorongo crater that’s the best. Its true he offer me an other day but smart is it he knows perfectly i have other things to do. Very good luck if you book with this company crose my fingers you dont have something
