Amazing 6-Day Safari Experience with Meru Slopes and Tours!

We recently had an unforgettable 6-day group safari with Meru Slopes and Tours, visiting the Serengeti, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire Park. The entire experience was smooth and seamless, thanks to Gift Tembo, who expertly coordinated the trip for us. The responses were quick, and the itinerary was planned out perfectly. Hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti is definitely a must too!

The jeep rides were a thrilling adventure on their own, often feeling like a fun rollercoaster! We’re incredibly grateful to our guide, Daniel, who has 20 years of experience. He expertly maneuvered the sometimes tricky roads, ensuring we always felt safe.

The food throughout the trip was delicious, and we were always full and satisfied. The lodgings were also very comfortable, allowing us to rest well each night.

Overall, we had an amazing time and would highly recommend Meru Slopes and Tours for anyone looking for a well-organized and memorable safari experience!

Plus side, don’t forget to tip the cook, driver, those who helped you with your bags or anything else! They tirelessly work with their heart, it’s a lovely sight. People are not pushy, everyone is friendly even at the lodges/hotels/camps we stayed in, we were very welcomed.

Lastly, there are a lot of bathroom stops along the way so stay hydrated with water or the free beers & cokes provided during the tour, as weather can get dry. Bathrooms are so clean too!!

I’m very happy with my 8 days in Tanzania, it was a very unexpected & flawless experience.

Best tour of my life!
5/5

The safari exceeded all expectations. First our guide Julius was always smiling and willing to comply with any request. He was knowledgeable about animals and had a keen sense on how to find them. We were two women traveling alone and always felt well protected. The food was delicious, no fast food. The accommodation were wonderful. Value for the money was excellent. Kevin from Merlu Slopes was fast to answer all correspondence. I tried with several companies and was very happy to have ended up with Merlu Slopes. It was a dream come true.

An Unforgettable Safari Trip with Meru Slopes
5/5

We (a group of six from the US) just returned from an incredible trip to Tanzania organized by Meru Slopes & Safari. The highlight of the trip was a 7-day safari with our tour driver/guide, Salehe. He was an experienced, knowledgeable, calm, patient, and friendly guide. We witnessed wildebeests crossing the Mara River, large groups of elephants walking around our safari truck, lions feeding their cubs and fighting each other, cheetahs passing right by us, and countless other unforgettable moments. The tents/lodges and food were of high quality and very clean.

We also had a great time with our city and local culture tour guide, Herman. His patience paid off, allowing us to see the top of Mount Kilimanjaro from a distance after it had been hiding in the clouds for a long time.

We would also like to thank our tour organizer, Almanchui. He always responded promptly to our questions, even late at night, and tailored the entire tour plan to meet our needs and expectations.

We will definitely recommend Meru Slopes & Safari to our friends and relatives.

Meru Slopes is super professional, easy to work with, and made sure we had a great safari!
5/5

My partner and I did an amazing 4 day safari with Meru Slopes! We visited Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti National Park, and saw the great migration Mara River crossing. Note that this was a VERY active itinerary but full of highlights. Meru Slopes is super easy to work with. They made all of the logistics stress free and always responded quickly and clearly to emails. Kunda is an incredible guide and absolute expert. He knew how to maximize our chance of seeing animals and was even helping the guides from other companies. We absolutely recommend Meru Slopes for your Tanzania safari!

an incredible African adventure
5/5

Thanks to Meru Slopes and Samuel our guide, we have just experienced an exceptional African adventure.
Samuel, whom we highly recommend, introduced us to a land unknown to us. With patience, gentleness and kindness, he knew how to make us experience moments of great emotion. A perfectly organized 7-day trip took us from Tarangire National Park to the Ngorongoro Crater via the Serengeti. Animal diversity, diversity of landscapes and happiness. The accommodation conditions met our expectations and the meals were excellent. Samuel, as a great guide speaking French well, allowed us to tick the 5 boxes of the big five. Well done to the whole team. I recommend.

WOW!! What an amazing experience!
5/5

Adventure of a lifetime. Must go, for all animal and nature lovers. We decided to go with Meru Slopes company, and it was a great decision. Everything was organised perfectly. From day one, right till the end. Big THANK YOU, to our fantastic guide/driver, named Douglas. What a guy!! Great animal knowledge, good story-teller good driver, polite and very nice person. We just couldn't ask for more. Our safari was amazing, all because of Douglas. He always went an extra mile, to make sure we see the Big Five, Mara River crossing, and much, much more. Thank you again Douglas.
If we decide to do a safari again, this time in wet season, it'll only be with him.

Amazing experience in Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara
5/5

This was my second safari experience after Namibia, and I was worried it might feel repetitive. However, each day brought unique, incredible, and unexpected experiences. From the vast African elephants in Tarangire to the days spent in the Serengeti, where we even had the chance to head north and witness the breathtaking wildebeest migration as they dramatically crossed the river, every moment was extraordinary. The Ngorongoro Crater is truly incredible, a unique ecosystem condensed into just a few kilometers, and Lake Manyara is captivating with its distinct natural beauty compared to the other parks.

A large part of the credit goes to our guide, Lobulu, who patiently and positively guided us throughout the journey, taking us to the most strategic spots to fully enjoy every moment. A huge thank you also to Rashid, who prepared delicious local meals for us at all hours, accommodating everyone's needs.

An unforgettable trip that I would gladly repeat!

Very professional and experienced tour operator that helped us with making our Safari trip amazing
5/5

The Safari trip with Meru Slopes was an amazing and unforgettable experience! From the beginning Gift Tembo was most helpful in arranging the trip and made it very easy with excellent communication and making sure that our arrival and departure in Tanzania went smoothly.
During the Safari we were taken care of by our amazing guide Douglas and chef Johani. We couldn’t ask for more knowledgeable and fun guide who made our 6 day trip very entertaining and assured that we got the best views during the game drives. And the everyday feast prepared by Johani exceeded all expectations.

Overall had an amazing Safari trip and would recommend everyone to reach out to Meru Slopes for their Tanzania/Africa adventures!

A 10 for everything
5/5

An unforgettable trip, from the organization of Jerome, the driver Jackson on the first day and the Spanish guide Daniel, and later guide and driver Mudi who made us feel as if we had known each other all our lives and knew every inch of the national parks and took us to see the Big 5. Thank you very much and I recommend Meruslopes for any safari you want to do.
