Just the perfect experience if you want to touch the real safari experience
The Perfect Safari experience, August 2024
After several years I made my wishes come trough: our family went to Africa to touch the real Safari Experience. We were very lucky to choose Meru slopes as our preferred Safari Tour Operator. Jerome, our first point of contact, was so professional with his perfect English to answer all our questions and accommodate our needs. It created a customized trip as we wanted: we landed in Arusha and departed to start the Safari to Tarangire national park with Salehe: our guide for the 5 days. Salehe did a great job, he is very knowledgeable, kind, and very open to assisting you with our requests (if any), he did reply to all our questions, he wanted our 2 girls to feel happy and he did :), thanks very much.
We continued our trip to Lake Maniara, Serengeti and Ngororo: such wonderful and amazing places. All were very planned in terms of accommodation, and time management, can t complain at all. We ended our trip to Zanzibar in Paradise wonderful island with all that nature can give in terms of food, fish, and people. We met Daniel who was our local guide there. He did explain everything about the island and we did raise a lot of questions :). We had the privilege to see the Dolphins and snorkeling with all the colored fish around, great activity ended with a very tasty fish lunch. I have to say that these 3 people made a different to our trip: all focused on us, I recommend Meru Slopes if you're thinking of doing a safari, very professional and very great and amazing people: Jambo Jambo, Asante Sana, Marina, Arturo, Marta, and Sara.

The tour operator provided excellent service to customers and all the staff are very friendly.
We came to Tanzania for the Safari and chose Meru Slopes to be our guide. During the trip, our guide is Saleh and our chef is Buga, they’re both very friendly and provided excellent service and explanation for us. The car used for the Safari was comfortable and clean, and free WiFi was included. We saw lots of animals during the trip, elephants, leopards, cheetahs and other animals. Saleh is really good at finding the animals which made our trip wonderful. I am sure if I will come to Tanzania again, I will choose Meru Slopes again.

Fantastic company!!!
Meru Slopes provided my husband and me with an unforgettable safari experience in Tanzania! From the start, their pre-trip communication was timely, detailed, and put us at ease (thank you, Jerome!). Our guide, Kunda, was exceptional—his deep knowledge of animal behavior and his insider insights truly elevated our adventure. He was not only an experienced and safe driver but also a wonderful human being who made our trip extra special. Thanks to Kunda, we saw every animal on our list and more. Delicious food and wonderful accommodations! We couldn't have asked for a better experience and highly recommend Meru Slopes to anyone looking for an incredible safari!

Amazing hiking and safari experience
We booked Meru Slopes & Safaris for both our 7d6n Kilimanjaro hike via Lemosho route and for our 4d3n safari in Tarangeire NP, Ngorongoro crater and Serengeti NP.
For our Kilimanjaro hike, our guides were Nicodemus and Ibrahim and both were very knowledgeable and experienced and took very good care of us. They were the extra step to find rental hiking gear as one of our friends had lost their luggage in transit and made sure that we were well-equipped. We had about 12 porters including 1 chef and they were all very helpful throughout our hike especially on the summit push. Sufficient rest was provided to us, and as the guides were experienced, they could tell just by looking at the skies how the temperature will be like. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience.
Our guide for the safari through Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro crater and Serengeti NP was Julius and he was one of the best guides anyone can ask for. He was such a ball of energy and even though he was our driver and guide, he never once showed that he was tired or sick of seeing the animals and continuously helped us to look out for these. He was so welcoming and friendly and he made us feel so welcomed and at home throughout our safari. We were so upset when our safari trip came to an end with him.
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Meru Slopes & Safaris and highly recommend to engage them!

Perfectly organized tour with experienced staff
Starting from the beginning, we contacted the agency for a quote and for different questions, and we always got timely feedbacks. Highly suggest to book the tour directly with them, without passing through intermediaries because they are highly reliable.
They asked for our flights details, and they were waiting for us at the airport when we arrived.
Everything then went perfectly and according to the plan. Thanks to our very experienced driver, Robert, we felt safe during the whole safari (7 days), and we got to see many beautiful animals and moments, including the migration!
We have also eaten abundantly and very well thanks to our cook, Rashid, who cooked for us every day breakfast lunch and dinner.
To sum up, very reliable and 100% recommended!

The operator was very knowledgeable.
We enjoyed this safari so much that we're going to plan another safari to celebrate my granddaughter's graduation from chiropractor school in three years. We did the 5 Days Camping Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro crater & Visiting Maasai. This was an amazing experience. The company planned a beautiful surprise birthday party for my daughter while we were in Tanzania.

Extremely responsive and reliable, amazing guides, great value
My wife and I booked Meru Slopes for both the 3 day Mount Meru hike and the 5 day safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara). Leading up to the trip, we were extremely pleased with how responsive and helpful Jerome was in answering all of our questions about packing list, coordinating airport/transfer logistics, and making sure my wife’s food allergy was accounted for. All of the logistics were perfect, all drivers were reliable (and even taught us a bunch of Tanzanian music, which we loved). And the guides (Paul and Jonah on Meru, Jacob on Safari) and chefs (Jacob on Meru, Dula on Safari) were excellent (the soups here are so incredible…). Would 100% recommend this company to anyone else looking to book either the hike or safari or both. The accommodations exceeded our expectations and we felt that the tours were great value for the trip of a lifetime.

Great family adventure
While there are 100s of different tours offered here, we eventually chose Meru Slopes due to number of good reviews and good itinerary and price. We did 5days including wilderbeast migration.
Everything went smooth from the first contact. We communicated through email and whatsapp and was really easy to adjust the trip to our wishes and explore diffrent route options. Our contact Almachius was quick to respond even on weekends.
Once on tour our driver guide Robulu was great and very knowlegable about all the animals, with great level of english. We chose low budget, but sleeping in camps added to the adventure for kids. We went one day to Northern Serengeti to see the great migration. We didnt see the river crossing so if you really want to see it, we suggest to add a night in northern part of the park. But we did see all of the big five and countless other animals. We saw Leopard up close and personal which was one of the highlights of the trip. Although I do think 5 days of Safari is the right amount and we were quite tired at the end.
Food was good and you also get some sodas and beer/wine included. Believe me after long days of driving a beer at dinner feels really nice.
They picked us up and dropped us off at the airport and even offered to help when we forgot our camera in hotel on our departure. So throughout we had all the support needed travelling on our own, without the international agency involved.
While Im sure other companies also provide great services, as everybody in Tanzania is super friendly, but choosing Meru Slopes is something we do not regret. And for people travelling to Africa on their own accord, that dont like travelling through travel agencies in groups, we definetly recommend Meru Slopes.
