AN UNFORGETTABLE SAFARI – THANK YOU GODFREY! 🦁❤️
5/5

We had the most incredible 6-day safari experience with Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris, and I honestly don’t even know where to begin!

My mom, my sister and I traveled to Tanzania for my mom’s 50th birthday, and this safari was truly a dream come true. We visited three absolutely breathtaking national parks: Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, and every single day was filled with unforgettable moments.

We were lucky enough to see an incredible variety of wildlife, including so many animals we had only dreamed of seeing in their natural habitat. From elephants and giraffes to lions, zebras and so many more, it was simply magical! 🐘🦒🦁

But what truly made this experience exceptional was OUR GUIDE, GODFREY! ❤️

I genuinely believe that the guide makes ALL the difference on a safari. Many companies visit the same national parks, but having someone as passionate, experienced and dedicated as Godfrey completely transforms the experience.

First of all, his eyesight is absolutely UNBELIEVABLE! 😂 We kept joking that he had eagle eyes because he could spot animals hundreds of meters away, when we couldn’t even see anything! He would tell us exactly what animal it was, and only as we got closer would we finally realize he was right. It was honestly impressive!

But beyond his incredible ability to spot wildlife, Godfrey is simply an amazing person. He is incredibly kind, patient, funny, always smiling and genuinely passionate about his job. He taught us SO much about the animals, their behavior, the national parks and Tanzania in general.

We are French, and his French is absolutely excellent, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We had so many wonderful conversations, shared lots of laughs and never had a dull moment with him.

He always made sure we were comfortable, happy and enjoying every moment. You could really feel how much he cared about giving us the best possible experience.

A special thank you also to Almachius, who helped organize our safari and was always so kind, helpful and responsive throughout the booking process. Everything was very well organized, and we felt taken care of from beginning to end.

This trip exceeded all our expectations and gave us memories that we will cherish forever. ❤️

An unforgettable 7-day Tanzania safari with Meru Slopes
5/5

Our 7-day, 6-night safari with Meru Slopes Tour and Safaris was truly unforgettable. We started in Arusha and travelled to Tarangire, the Serengeti, and finally Ngorongoro Crater. Along the way we saw an incredible variety of wildlife and many different landscapes. Every day felt different, and the whole itinerary was well organised.

A big thank-you to Laurent, our ground manager. He was extremely reliable and professional. He met us in person on our first day after arrival and again on our last day to patiently and carefully explain the itinerary and review the whole journey with us. As guests from China, we really appreciated how quickly he replied to all our messages before the trip—whether it was day or night. His clear communication made planning completely stress-free.

Our guide Jacob was outstanding. He was outgoing and friendly, always neatly dressed, kept the vehicle spotless, and had amazing eyesight. He could predict where the animals were moving and positioned us perfectly for sightings. He often asked which animals we hoped to see and gave us detailed explanations about their habits and behaviour. We felt very lucky to have him as our guide.

The hotels throughout the trip were good and comfortable, and the camp in central Serengeti left a particularly deep impression on us. We are also grateful that everyone we met along the way was helpful and kind.

This was a very special experience for us, and we hope to come back again. Highly recommended!

An unforgettable private safari experience
5/5

We cannot recommend Meru Slopes highly enough! We had an absolutely fantastic experience in Tanzania, and the whole team played a part in making our trip so special.

A special mention must go to Douglas, our safari guide, who was simply wonderful. Extremely knowledgeable, passionate about wildlife and always great company.

He was constantly on the lookout for animals, spotting things we would never have noticed ourselves, and took the time to explain their behaviour, characteristics and fascinating details about the wildlife around us. His knowledge really brought the whole safari experience to life.

We always felt completely safe and in good hands with him. Our two teenage boys absolutely loved him too, which says a lot! He made every game drive enjoyable, interesting and memorable.

The picnics and bush lunches were also absolutely perfect, adding an extra special touch to an already incredible experience.

A special mention also goes to Jerome, who organised our entire trip. He was extremely responsive, helpful and accommodating throughout, always happy to answer our questions and adapt the arrangements to meet our requests. Everything was organised smoothly, making the whole experience stress-free from start to finish.

In the last two days, we were accompanied by Edison, who was also fantastic. He confidently navigated the really challenging roads up to Materuni Waterfall and then took us to explore the local market and the Maasai market the following day. He was friendly, helpful and made these last experiences of our trip thoroughly enjoyable.

Superb Guide and Game Drives
4/5

We were two friends on a private safari with Meru Slopes Tours. The game drives were superb and we saw 4 of the Big 5.

Beyond the animals, our guide Patrick was the highlight of the trip. He was very professional, anticipated our needs and listened carefully to us. He was responsible, respectful and helpful, with a good sense of humour while remaining very discreet. He could answer every question about the animals we met, including the birds, and he even had books to complete his explanations. If we use Meru Slopes again, it will be for him.

However, the accommodation advice was disappointing. We chose this company after reading its reviews and trusted it as a professional agency, but one of the lodges proposed was below standard. Our request to change it was first declined without any alternative being offered. The payment of the balance was also complicated: we were asked to meet in person and wasted 30mn on a parking lot as none of the payment methods suggested worked. We finally paid online which we could have done from the hotel as for the 1st payment.
To be fair, the operator acknowledged the mistake, apologized, and offered us the last night at Mount Meru Hotel in Arusha, which we gladly accepted. We recommend this company for its guide and its game drives, but advise future clients to check the accommodation carefully before booking.

Absolutely perfect from start to finish.
5/5

We did the 6-Day Big 5 Safari to Tarangire Serengeti and Ngorongoro. I really cannot describe how wonderful this safari was. Everything was perfect from the pickup at the airport to the accommodations and best of all was our guide/driver Andrew whose knowledge of the Serengeti was only surpassed by his dynamic personality. This really was the trip of a lifetime and I thank everyone at Meru Slopes for making it so unforgettable. Looking forward to another safari in the future and it will definitely be with Meru Slopes.
