Exceptional
I couldn’t be happier that we chose Meru Slopes Tours and Safaris Limited for our Tanzania Safari. Rarely these days does anyone meet your expectations, must less exceed them. But that’s exactly what we got with Meru Slopes.
I started working with Shadrack back in February. We went back and forth because I had a lot of questions and wants. And an average budget. Not once did he ever make me feel like I was a bother. Not once did I NOT get a response in a timely manner, which made me wonder if he ever slept. His customer service was so next level, I actually thought that he was the owner. I did not get any of that from any other Company I reached out too.
We ended up booking a 9 day private mid-range Tour because of the affordability. We visited Lake Manyara, The Central Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Highlands and Crater and Tarangire National Park. Mude was our guide and he was fantastic. He was an exceptional driver, extremely accommodating to our needs, kept our Land Rover clean, made sure we had hot lunches everyday and had a mission to make sure we saw the top 5 and every other species of animals available. And we did, he was such a good spotter. I can’t quit raving about him, Shadrack and everyone else at this Company. Tells me everything I need to know about the owner, who by the way, is a local. And we like to support the locals.
Every place we stayed was different, unique, beautiful and comfortable. The food was amazing, and so good at two of the places, we asked for the chef to thank him personally. We were just there in April from the 21st to the 29th(2026). It was shoulder season so there weren’t many other people. In two of the places we stayed, we were the only ones there. You would think the service wouldn’t be as good, but on the contrary. We got so much attention.
It was towards the end of rainy season, but luckily, there was very little. And it came at times that never affected our safari’s. Every single day we saw so many animals. Herd after Herd of Wildebeest, Elephants, Zebra, so many different types of Antelopes, Lions, Cheetahs, Hippos, Rhinos, the list goes on. Until what they call the Great Migration when some animals head to Kenya, from September to July, they are all in The Serengeti in Tanzania. And migrating daily to different areas in the park. Spring is when the babies are born, and every herd had a lot. Every day was something new and exciting, too many highlights to list them all, but one of our favorites; Finding about 4 mama lions and lots of babies eating a wildebeest they had killed the night before. We were the first ones there and stayed for at least an hour. At some point, a couple of other jeeps turned up, but in season, you could experience over 50. No thanks.
The one thing I would change about our itinerary; I would not include Tarangire, the last National Park we visited. And I would spend two nights at the places where we only stayed one night. And I would probably add in a few other places in Tanzania. Instead, we headed to Kenya for a 5 day Safari thinking we would see something different. After Tanzania, and such a perfect Safari on every level. Kenya was a huge disappointment. Especially the roads, they were horrendous. Tanzania truly was a dream of a lifetime. And it didn’t break the bank. Shadrack, Mude, Joseph, Edmond and every other single person we met in Tanzania was genuinely friendly, sincere, and just good people. Our accommodation was unique and beautiful. The Food fantastic. The service exceptional.

Great trip in early May
I planned my trip using Safari Bookings and chose Semu Gorilla Safaris and Tours. They were excellent. Be sure to check out what wildlife you would like to see as each National Park is different.

Amazing tour of Rwanda and Uganda!
Thank you to Stuart and the Lulu Safaris team for an amazing vacation! They organized a perfect itinerary that included gorilla trekking, chimp trekking, golden monkeys, boat tours and more! Stuart was very friendly and helpful and included some flexibility to accommodate requests I had to see additional local sites. I highly recommend Lulu safaris for your next Uganda trip

Said makes sure you’ll get the best experience possible
Said took very good care of me and my friends. He arranged the best rooms in the lodges with the most beautiful views. The food was more than good everywhere. Said is very skilled at spotting animals during the safari and explains everything about it to you. Said speaks fluent English and is simply a very nice, reliable guide. If you want a fantastic and unforgettable experience, book Said!

Wonderful memories in Kenya & Tanzania 🇰🇪🇹🇿
I did a 9-day (customized) trip across Kenya & Tanzania with Ariphine and it turned out to be wonderful! Early from the consulting phase, our communication was really smooth. Special shoutout to Ashley - extremely responsive, and responsible who keeps checking with you about the experience almost every day during the trip. The logistics is pretty good so you don't need to worry about anything as all will be arranged for you, even solo travelers. I managed to visit (and enjoy) Masai Mara, Amboseli, Serengeti & Ngorongoro within limited holidays very much because of their good organization. Great value for money even for 'budget' option with many unforgettable moments with our guide, peers, animals and nature. Would definitely love to recommend this agent to friends for future travels here!

An Unforgettable Experience
We had a 6-night tour organised by Professional Safaris. We started with a night in Arusha, followed by a safari through Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater and into Serengeti National Park.
Mike, our guide made sure that we had an incredible experience from the moment he picked us up at Kilimanjaro airport. He has an uncanny ability to find wildlife (including all of the Big 5) and always shared his extensive knowledge about the animals we saw. He adapted his plans every day, to make sure that each one was different and to make certain that we had an unforgettable experience.
The organisation from the team was excellent. The accommodation was all of an extremely high standard, with wonderful service and delicious food. Everything happened very smoothly, including our flight from Seronera airstrip and final transfer to our hotel on Zanzibar.
I would definitely recommend Professional Safaris to anyone looking for the trip of a lifetime in Tanzania.
As Mike always said, as one adventure finishes another begins.
