Above and beyond. Wonderful safari experience
5/5

We chose this safari mainly because of the reasonable price and good reviews. We were impressed from start to finish with the amazing service and care taken by the company. The best part by far was our guide, Hillary who went the extra mile to make sure we saw as many animals as possible. He is really an expert in his field so the tour was very informative. He answered countless questions and made sure we got the most out of our four day safari. Highly recommend.

I recomend Meru Slopes tours
5/5

I was in Tanzania to do a 5 days Safari with Meru Slopes. I must say it was perfect. They picked up us at Nairobi airport, we stayed at their hotel (quite nice) the day before and the last day, which is included in the price. The guide was a very passionate guy with great knowleadge of the animals and the area, the cook was also great (very tasty food). We saw the big 5!!! :D No problem with the accomodation. Actually on the first night the "tent" was a bungalow and there was a swimming pool at the park. It was a dream trip and they made it real!

Professional and budget tour with good care till the end
4/5

We´re five friends looking for a budget tour to Serengeti y Gorongoro and we lived a very good experience thanks tu Meru Slopes Safari. They picked up in the airport, and from then they take care of everything. The lodging, the food, the safari, any wish you have the guide (Hillary) tried to get it. We were 5 days safari (plus first night in Arusha and last night in Moshi) and we enjoied a lot. We found a good climax in the camps with the rest of the groups at the end of every journey , and the facilities were good, taking into account we were in a budget trip. The only complain about our trip It´s the bad conditions of the public campsite in Serengeti about all the toilets althogh this is a bussiness of the tanzanian goberment. Also I recommended to include in the safari a day in the lake Natrom area, a friends of me did it and They got a closest sensantion of the massai people and land, even they made a morning walk to the flamingo lake.

5 unforgettable days in safari with Meru Slopes Tours, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, lake Manyar, Tarangire
4/5

Five unforgettable days in safari with Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris, include Serengeti, Ngorongoro, lake Manyara, Tarangire!
At first I could not believe that I get transfer from the airport to the hotel and back, plus overnight at the hotel before and after the safari. But despite the concerns I saw good recommendations, and booked with Geofer Nassari by email after short correspondence. Everything was well organized and I got a good treatment and support from a staff. They answering me for all my questions and solve very fast each issue. In safari I didn't feel the difference between other groups that paid more without hotel before and after and without transfers from and to airport. The only thing I would improve it visit Tarangire and lake Manyara on the same day and not two separate days. This is because they are very close to Arusha and much smaller then Serengeti so half day per each it's enough.
Thanks again to all the staff of Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris and especially to Geofrey Nassari, for five unforgettable days in safari!

Absolutely professional tour company with huge expertise and wide range of services
5/5

I found Meru Slopes Tours and Safaris company in this amazing website. Very convenient. The company offered very reasonable prices for my trip. I could not call it budget because the whole trip seemed to be more than a budget trip. Of course, I booked a joining safari. It means you have to travel with other people. But there is always possibility to make your own booking for a family or friends.
Communication with the company started from my email and a quick reply with the offer. Everything that Meru Slopes offered came true with expenses, daily trips and the whole plan. And everything was smooth. So, there were no discussions and only a couple of emails before the trip. At first, it seemed that it is too easy to be so, they will forget, will not take much responsibility since you do not have to pay in advance. After I obtained my Tanzanian SIM while travelling I called Meru Slopes and from then on they were always curious about my situation. They took me from the hotel and the safari started. Meru Slopes takes from and to the airport which is 1 h drive from Arusha for free. The company is responsible and serious. I have to highlight that there is no need to book hotels by yourself before/after the trip. Meru Slopes provides comfortable accommodation before and after. The price is included in the tour offer.
My safari lasted four days in the end of March 2016. The trip became even more attractive because new people I joined and traveled together were very nice and friendly from all over the world. Highly skilled and experienced driver Gidion (who becomes a main and the only guide during safari) knew what he is doing very well. I was able to see all what was expected (including the Big 5) and more due to his experience. Unbelievable for a first safari trip. Gidion took responsible actions with the car when problems occurred with the tires. The only thing I missed is a basic first aid kit. Some small health problems occurred to the passengers in safari and there were not even activated carbon in the car. But the problem was solved with the help of others. Actually, the food was excellent during the whole trip. The cook was skilled. And I friendly recommend not to forget about the tipping to the driver and cook. Tipping is not included in the tour price but it is stated in the safari offer from the company. It does not have to be a big donation, just symbolic - as much as you feel good about their service.
All in all, I highly recommend Meru Slopes. My safari tour was very relaxing which made the whole vacation enjoyable and unforgettable. They are operative, quick, informative and take care. They provide their services with a high level of responsibility, knowledge and experience. They care about customers and their needs/expectations. This company provides opportunity to see NPs and the wildlife in a very easy way without large expenses. Just choose the appropriate period of travel because in March you might get some rain especially in Ngorongoro crater. Next is the time for Kilimanjaro and I will definitely use Meru Slopes for this purpose. Good luck, folks!
