A trip of a lifetime in Tanzania - shoutout to Elly
5/5

Our group of 4 did a private 6 day safari tour and are happy to say it exceeded our expectations! First day we paid extra to go to the Materuni falls and coffee experience, which was a fun little adventure. Our guide/driver Edson was kind enough to offer a hand when some of us were struggling down the slippery paths. We then had Elly as our guide for the safari for Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Elly was extremely experienced and knew exactly where to go to find the animals. His eyesight and ability to identify animals was astounding. We were able to see the big 5 all thanks to him. He would ask us whether we had specific interests or things we wanted to see and then would customise our route accordingly. He was also very patient and considerate - he somehow managed to stay calm even when we were all screaming in the back because our fear of insects. In addition, he also made sure we were informed of the upcoming plans and had excellent time management. By the end we felt like we had a friend and were sad to say goodbye to Elly!

As for the administrative staff - Gift Tembo helped me book from start to finish and was very responsive. He would even reply in the early/late hours in Arusha and come find us to make sure everything was going all right. Even when I wanted to make small tweaks to our schedule, he would be able to make the corresponding changes immediately and provide me with updated, detailed itineraries. The hotels he chose for us were also very nice.

Thanks to the team at meru slopes, we had a great time in Tanzania and the trip felt very complete. Would highly recommend booking with them!

Once in a lifetime experience
5/5

We had an unforgettable experience with Meru Slopes Tours & Safari during our 10-day trip in Tanzania. Everything was organized professionally from start to finish, and our tour operator, Gift Tembo, made sure every detail of the trip went smoothly. He was always helpful, responsive, and genuinely cared about giving us the best experience possible. You can tell he takes pride in what he does, and that made the entire trip stress-free and enjoyable for us.

Our safari experience was absolutely incredible, and a huge thank you goes to our driver Max. His experience, patience, and knowledge of the parks were honestly impressive. He seemed to know exactly where to find the animals and always managed to put us in the perfect spots for viewing and pictures. Thanks to his sharp eyes and communication with other guides, we were able to see the entire Big Five along with many other animals up close.

Because of Max, we witnessed some unbelievable moments that felt straight out of a documentary. We saw lions mating, lions eating right next to our vehicle, and even watched lions hunt a wildebeest right in front of us.(we literally have it on video) Those are moments we will never forget, and it was clear that Max’s experience and instincts played a huge role in making those sightings happen. While other vehicles were still searching, Max always seemed one step ahead and knew exactly where to go.

Another big thank you goes to our chef, Bongue, who kept us well fed during the safari days. The food was honestly delicious and exceeded our expectations, especially while being out in the parks and campsites. Every meal was fresh, flavorful, and prepared with care, and it made the experience even more enjoyable after long game drives. Bongue did an amazing job making sure we always had great meals.

What made this trip even more special was that it was not only safari. We also did two days of hiking activities, including the beautiful Materuni waterfall hike with a coffee tour and a day trip of Kilimanjaro mountain. Those days gave us a chance to experience the local culture and nature outside of the safari parks. A big thank you to Vic and Kennedy for driving and guiding us during those days. They were friendly, professional, and made the hiking and coffee tour experience fun and comfortable.

Overall, this truly felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Between the safari, hiking, coffee tour, amazing landscapes, delicious food, and the incredible team from Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris, we created memories we will never forget. We highly recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Tanzania.

Unforgettable Safari – No only Big Five but More!
5/5

We had an amazing safari with Meru Slopes Tours – we were lucky enough to see the Big Five plus many other animals! Our guide Muddy was fantastic: knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly good at finding wildlife.He's a perfect guide.
We also met wonderful travel buddies during the trip, everyone was humor and easy-going, which made the whole journey even more enjoyable.
Accommodations were great overall. The only downside was dinner in Ngorongoro Serena Safari
Lodge,where we unfortunately got food poisoning.
Apart from that one issue, everything else was perfect. Highly recommended!

A highly professional and thoughtful tour operator, with Samwel providing outstanding care and exper

5/5

Going for safari in Tanzania, this is your company! Everything was over my Expectation. From booking, to bringing me back to the airport. They was so helpful with giving me information, and anwser all my questions. When I arrived they picked me up, and drove me to the hotel. The hotel was really good.

On the safari we did have an amazing guide, dickson. So kind, and had alot of knowledge. Me as a muslim going for safari, there was NO problem for getting time for my salah. Imagine praying under a tree in Serangeti, amazing experience!

The camps was very good, I did sleep very good. The food was also over my Expectation. We did see all big 5, we did see around 80 Lions!

When we got back to the hotel in Arusha, the airline change my flight. What did Meru slopes do? They let me stay an extra night, with all meals included. Such a great service!! Overall It couldn't be better, if doing safari in Tanzania agein, this will be my company. Thank you all for giving me an amazing experience! <3
