It was perfect!
5/5

We had 4 days safari tour with Meru Slopes. Everything was excellent. Geofrey answered all my questions before tour. We were met in Arusha airport, than we spent 1 night in Arusha Inn hotel. After safari we were taken back to Kilimanjaro airport. All this services were included into trip. When we arrived to Arusha, Geofrey gave us his assistant and helped usto buy Malaria prevention tablets. Camping was good. We had more than enough food and water. Our Driver guide did his best for us to meet lots of animals.

5/5

The tour was great. The driver and the cook were really good at what they do. The driver got us some exciting views on the animals, and the cook fed us afterwards to complete the amazing experience. We saw countless lions, cheetahs, zebras, guiraffs and so on. After 4 days, I couldn't believe that I just witnessed all that, many times being only inches away.

The hotel where you stay at before and after the safari could be fixed up a bit, but you don't care, since you still are under the impression of what you saw. They also picked us up and drove us to the airport.

5/5

The 5 days camping safari was great. Geofrey was very helpful and friendly. We saw so many animals and the crater is one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited.

The tents were nice and the food was fine. The price for the tour was very good.

best safaritour ever!!
5/5

The communications and service were perfect!! It needed just 2 mails and the safari was booked. Everything was clear since the beginning. We were picked up from the airport as agreed. Our guide Simon was the best guide we could imagine. He was so effort, knowing, considerate and talkative. Our cook "the stomach engineer" conjured delicious dishes! For breakfast we had omelettes, pancakes, sausages, toast, jam, coffee, hot chocolate. The lunch boxes were surprisingly tasty. Everything was selfmade by "the stomach engineer". These two guys made the safari an unforgettable experience!
Thank you so much for that!!

Excellent 6D5N Safari on the classic circuit (Manyara, Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro)!
5/5

We picked Meru Slopes for our 6 days, 5 nights (budget) Safari in Tanzania and were super satisfied! Communication with Geofrey is very easy and fast, he accommodated all our changes and answered all our questions. No hidden fees. Plus, there is a free extra night at the Arusha Tourist Inn at the start and the end of the tour and pick up and drop off at the airport included, so it is completely hassle-free!
Our guide Benson and our cook Richard were excellent, never pushy or stressful, and always up for just that little bit extra that makes your safari perfect! We saw everything except Rhinos, and it was an amazing experience! Food was great and plentiful! The stop at a Maasai village is completely optional, and you don't have to do it if your group decides against it. We were also pleasantly surprised by the budget campsites in Serengeti (Pimbi Camp) and at the Crater (Simba Camp) - the bathroom facilities were cleaned once a day.

I highly recommend going with Meru Slopes, everything was beyond our expectations! Do bring a little bit of toilet paper and wet wipes for the dust and don't forget binoculars! Thanks to Geofrey, Ben and Richard for making our trip so memorable!

Parks and wildlife were great, tour operator was not
2/5

I booked a 6D/5N with Meru Slopes, reading great reviews on SafariBookings.com.

I was dismayed to find out that they had shuffled me into a different company's safari, for unknown reason. This group was called Arunga Expeditions.

The guide spoke maybe 100 words the entire safari, we had battery issues with the LandCruiser, the lunch boxes were awful (dry muffin + banana + FOUR pieces of plain bread + juice box), and we were always rushed. When we would stop at say a large pride of lions and want to spend 5-10 minutes, the guide would try and start driving away after 1 minute to find something else. We'd have to ask him to stop so we can stay and watch the lion and actually take photos. He was never happy with this and often very rude. Often we'd leave something like this after 2 minutes and not see anything as spectacular the rest of the day. He'd mutter something like "many more lions later". The itinerary was to have FULL safari days at certain spots (Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Serengeti) but this only meant 4 - 5 hours to the guide. He would sleep in, start slow, and end early, so he could take off from the campsite and go drink a couple beers and watch football somewhere. We were always the last vehicle out in the morning and first ones back. The itinerary had a full day booked at Ngorongoro but we were finished BEFORE lunch time. How does this work?
