Meru Slopes is a reliable agency which offers amazing trips with reasonable prices.
We had an amazing 7-day tour with Meru Slopes. Everything is clear and well-organized from the beginning to the end. Audax is an excellent manager who always answers the email timely and clearly and gives useful advice. Our guide Sandy is knowledgeable, experienced and easy-going and he is always try to get close to animals on the premise of rules and find the excellent angles for us to appreciate them. Not only do we learn something about wildlifes and nature from him, but also had super duper happy memories with him. Will strongly recommend Meru Slopes to my friends.

Locally owned with great guides
This was our first time in Tanzania and Africa and everyone made us feel very welcome. We had everything planned out for us, from a four day safari visiting tanjire national park, ungorogoro crater, and then finally two days in the Serengeti. After the safari we did a day hike of Kilimanjaro
I would say the biggest thing for our trip was that our safari guide Michael was VERY knowledgable and friendly. Even though we had only four days (and only 2 in the Serengeti), we were able to see all the big five and SO many lions. Michael was able to explain every animal/plant that we came across and always managed to get us in to snap amazing photos of the wildlife. He knew the parks inside and out so we were always going from hot spot to hot spot
The hotels we stayed at were all amazing as well, I highly recommend kubu kubu for people planning their nights in Serengeti
Thank you to the team at meijo for showing us a magical time in Tanzania, we will be back!

We thought we would only do this once, but their services proved us wrong.
This is the second "once-in-a-lifetime" trip we've booked through Adelle at Discover Africa--and it won't be the last. Her knowledge of the available tours/lodges/details created very memorable trips. Having to translate our expectations and lack of knowledge of safaris and the various regions into a customized trip with unique and enjoyable experiences could not have been easy, but she's made it seem so.
Our first trip introduced us to Capetown, Sabi Sands, and Kruger. From the at-airport welcome for initial transportation, to various flights, and at-lodge customized details (e.g., special meal needs), the itinerary and connections were flawless. The length of stays was discussed and Adelle's recommendations for each proved exactly what we needed. Even shifting our trip one week on her recommendation enabled us to avoid very heavy seasonal travel from Europe that we were unaware of. In-country/in-continent knowledge coupled with a deep experience with planning travel proved invaluable.
Our second safari experience involved several lodges (with airport-to lodges-to airport transportation) in various locations (Zimbabwe, Botswana, South Africa). Each provided unique aspects of the safari experience, and (again) the recommended length of stays for each was spot on.
We have thoroughly enjoyed our travel as arranged by Adelle, and are developing plans for another trip. We've discussed alternative levels of accommodations, and her knowledgeable responses related to differences between all-inclusive luxury vs. non-inclusive high-quality convinced us to again trust her planning for wonderful experiences of a lifetime.
We would recommend Adelle's and Discover Africa's travel services without hesitation and regularly provide their contact information to friends, family, and others who are interested in discovering Africa in a most beautiful, intimate, personal, and respectful way.

We had a wonderful safari with Gofan. Very professional, prompt, and accommodating. The driver was excellent and kept us safe as well as very fun and amicable to be with. It felt like being with family.
Well done Gofan!

Unforgettable days in Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire & Kilimanjaro
We’ve just returned from our safari.
A big compliment to safari soles tours, everything went smoothly without exception. The safari was exactly as advertised.
We had the honour of experiencing the safari with Simon, an incredibly great guide. He was very friendly and courteous and always endeavoured to make the safari an unforgettable experience for us. Which he succeeded in doing. We‘ve been incredibly lucky to be able to observe many of the animals at close range in the wild. With his good instincts, his many years of experience and his admirable patience, Simon managed to capture spectacular moment's.
To our astonishment, we managed to observe countless lions in a wide variety of actions.
One highlight was witnessing the wildebeest crossing the Mara River. The tension to see whether the animals would all make it to the other bank without being swept away by the current or eaten by a crocodile was enormous. Simon always behaved professionally and respectfully towards the animals and gave them time and space. His knowledge of nature and the animals was fascinating and it was very exciting to listen to him.
Simone is not only a very great guide, he is also an incredibly talented photographer. He always shared the great pictures with us.
Thank you very much for that.
The overnight stays were very nice except for the Tulia Boutique Hotel.
The staff was very friendly and helpful everywhere. We particularly enjoyed our overnight stay at Ang'ata Ngorongoro Camp. The food was incredibly tasty and the hot water bottle in bed was a very nice and a thoughtful gesture.
The Kilimanjaro hike with Frank on the last day was also very nice. With a bit of luck, we even got to see Kilimanjaro for a short time with practically no clouds.
We would like to thank the whole team very much and would go on safari with you again at any time. We would be happy to recommend you and of course Simon to others.

Amazing Tour at Honest Prices
We had a great experience with Ozon Light Tours. This is a smaller tour company that operates a high touch, high quality, honest business. Booking agent Clinton made us feel welcomed every step of the way and communicated everything. He helped us secure nice accommodations at real prices. Everything was fairly priced and transparent. It was refreshing vs. the quotes we got from other companies.
We had an experience with altitude sickness on Mt. Kilimanjaro and had to come down early. Ozon re-accommodated us for those nights and kept checking in to make sure we were okay.
The safari experience with our Guide Rajab was amazing. He made every effort to answer all of our many questions and he helped us see all of the Big 5 animals. He was the nicest guy imaginable and anyone would be lucky to have him as a guide.
I definitely recommend booking your Tanzania adventure with Ozon Light Tours.

He was friendly and very helpful! Lambs is very good at spotting the animals!
The moafrika tour was great! It was a great value for being able to see all of the animals that we did. I felt very safe the whole time and it was a blast. Lambs is such a hard worker and you can tell he loves his job.
