Great value for money and first class service
We did a three day safari round Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara and Manyara reserve. Top quality jeep with friendly and knowledgeable guide called John. He was a good and safe driver which was good as there are some nutters out there!! We had a number of requests to stop at various shops etc. and it was no trouble at all. John spent lots of time driving round the parks to spot animals and communicated with other guides to find good areas to head to.
Our accommodation was upgraded to luxury tents which was a real treat as had proper beds and a shower room & toilet out back.. All food and water provided. Quality hot meal for breakfast and dinner. Lunch was a pack up that was traditional African food so not amazing yet enough to get us by with a juice. On the last day John also arranged for us to have a tour of a Masai village so we got to see their huts and way of life.
Overall a great experience and one I would recommend. The hotel in Arusha the night before/after was of a good standard yet probably only a 2* in the U.K. so don't set expectations high. It was called Arusha tourist inn and food was poor so perhaps get a taxi to a local restaurant if you want to eat out when there - we went to Fifi's coffee house and it was great. I didn't feel safe walking in darkness in arusha so taxi a must. Enjoy!!

Remarkable experience from start to finish
We had an absolutely wonderful time on safari and would highly recommend Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris team especially having Gideon for a guide. We could not have asked for a better trip; our experience far exceeded our expectations. Gideon was extremely knowledgeable and it was very interesting to learn more about Africa especially Tanzania as a country and about the animals as we were traveling. Not only was Gideon excellent at been able to find the animals, but would also get us in a position to take fabulous photos. His English was very good and he was a fun person to be around.
Also, it was a great experience dealing with Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris. They were very attentive to our needs, and very prompt in answering all our questions. We was very pleased with all the arrangements that were made. We also, appreciated being given choices to accommodate our budget. And, the overall expense for the trip was much less than what I have heard others have paid, and in comparison to others online.
They took as from the hotel and the safari started. Foot Slopes takes from and to the airport which is 1 hr 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. Foot Slopes provides comfortable accommodation before and after. The price is included in the tour offer.
But there is always possibility to make your own booking for a family or friends.
I highly recommend Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris

Wonderful safari!
This was our first experience in a safari and we choose Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris. We had a 6 days safari in the North of Tanzania (Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater) + 6days base climb to the Kilimanjaro and 1 day to the hotsprings.
We think that the support from Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris gave us was excellent from the very first day when we ask a quote via email. All of them have always been very helpful. Since day 1, when we landed at Kilimanjaro Airport, we realized that our guide Innocent & Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris team was great people.
During our 5 days safari Innocent was amazing: good driver, excellent and very patient in spotting animals, very knowledgeable about nature/animals, an incredibly nice person and always ready to help us in case we needed. Cook was so amazing, food was so great, Last but not least, we had a lot of fun together.
They pick up and drop us at the airport and they give us 2 nights accommodation in the hotel
Summarizing, we definitely recommend Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris for your safari in Tanzania.

Best safari company with the best driver
Footslopes company respond to every email really fast, they listened to out wishes and they organized the best safari! We had the best driver Hilary - he's funny, he jokes a lot but also he knows a lot of stuff about animals and knows where to find them. We saw 3 huntings in 4 day safari, a big migration and a lot of baby animals, all thanks to Hilary. All camps were perfectly fine and the food was delicious.

The Footslope experience was excellent. Friendly staff, well organised, fab glamping.
The whole experience was excellent. Excellent staff and communications. Loved the whole experience with Footslopes. The guide particularly was very knowledgable and attentive. The tents were so lovely and having one base for the two nights was ace also. The organisation also was spot on.
The only negative for me was the tourist hotel in Arusha and that was a couple of the staff were unfriendly, that was all. Thank you for the experience.

Tarangire and Ngorongoro safari in October
My wife and I did a two day safari in Tanzania, on 13. and 14. of October 2016. as part of our honeymoon trip, and experience was really great, even better than I expected it to be.
We booked the tour with Mojhi.com about one month in advance, and Mojhi team connected us with Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris for further arrangemens concerning pick up, drop off and some safari details. Every step of that process was very smooth and eficient.
I would especially emphasise the effort that Gabriel and the rest of the Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris team made for us to enjoy the safari. Our inbound flight to JRO airport on the morning of the beginning of safari was delayed, so the group we were supposed to join had to leave for Tarangire NP without us. Even so, Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris arranged a special driver to take us to Tarangire so we could join the group and catch up with afternoon game drive through the park. Also, the other day was apparently a national holiday in Tanzania, so there were some complications with making a deposit in a bank, needed in order to get into Ngorongoro Conservation Area. We managed to get in even so, and had a really great day there. After the end of Ngorongoro safari we had to get back to Arusha, while rest of the group was bound to Serengeti, so again they provided a special driver to take us back to Arusha. They did all of that without any additional charge.
We were also very satisfied with accomodation, both the tents in the safari camp in Mto wa Mbu and a hotel in Arusha. Everything essential was provided, meals were served as agreed, so we really had an opportunity to rest and relax properly in both locations.
Our guide was professional and trustworthy and made our game drives even more interesting by providing additional information about the wildlife in the region. He was also very open to make some plan adjustments according to our needs.
Overall, we had an unforgettable experience of safari in Tanzania, and I can fully recommend Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris for thieir friendly and personal approach in organising our wildlife adventure.
Thanks again guys!

Great safari experience
Eric from Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris was very helpful, he has answered us every question quickly and I had many questions. ;-) When we had problems to book the bus tickets from Uganda to Tanzania, Eric booked the bus tickets for us. Many thanks again to Eric. On the safari we had a perfect guide with Hilary. He was always funny, he knows a lot about the animals and knows where to find them. We have seen cheetah hunting, 2 leopards and many lions and also baby lions. And, of course, many other animals (elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos,...). But unfortunately no rhinos. Many thanks again to Hilary. Our personal cook philipp cooked us very well. Many thanks again to Philipp. We had a 5 day safari and we went to Serengeti (off road), Ngorongoro, Tarangire and Lake Manyara. The last day in Lake Manyara we could have saved. By the exciting days before, the day in Lake Manyara was not so interesting. We can recommend the safari with Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris.
