Perfect safari with Meru Slopes Tours and Safaris!
5/5

My daughter and I just finished a fabulous week safari we booked with Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris. I can't say enough good things about them. Our salesman Almachius was patient and quick to answer all my questions. He also was great at laying out how the week would be structured and what to expect during the week. Our safari driver for the week was Robert. He did a great job tracking down the animals. We were able to see the big 5 along with the Wildebeest Migration crossing. We also enjoyed the flexibility of working with Meru Slopes Tours and Safaris. They were great at adding the additional places we wanted to visit: a hike to Materuni waterfall, coffee tour, Chemka Hot Springs, and tour of Serval Wildlife. Our day driver was Nixon. He was great at informing us of the culture and history of the places we visited. Could not have asked for a more perfect trip thanks to Meru slopes Tours and Safaris!

5/5

Asante Sana
The organization was top-notch, and the accommodations during the safari (Heart and Soul Lodge and Moyo Tented Camp) exceeded expectations. The staff were very accommodating, and the service was excellent.
Most importantly, however, was our guide, Julius, who accompanied us safely and informatively throughout the five days. Thanks to his persistence and experience, we spotted the Big Five at least twice each. He waited patiently (pole pole) until we found the right camera angle. Thanks to his experience, we never felt like we were missing anything.
My childhood dreams were more than fulfilled.
Thanks to Meru and especially to Julius for the unique experience; we felt like the "One Family" that Julius had announced at the beginning of the tour.

Asante Sana

Perfectly organised and deep experienced staff
5/5

Since the first mail we understood that this operator was the right one. Very prompt responses all the time before and throughout the Safari itself. Our driver Loburo was the perfect guide. From singing and teaching us African songs during the trip to the parks to explaining habits and secrets of the animals and the environment. We camped for 4 nights, into the wild, such an experience. Meals were always succulent and abundant. Definitely recommended.

5/5

We had an amazing safari experience with Meru Slopes! The planning and organization were excellent from start to finish. Our driver, Omary, was super cool—knowledgeable, fun, and always making sure we had the best chance to spot wildlife. Thanks to him, we saw almost the entire Big Five in Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara.
The accommodations were comfortable and well chosen, the food was delicious, and the service throughout was simply great. Everything ran smoothly, and we always felt well taken care of.
If you’re looking for a tour operator in Tanzania that combines great planning, professional service, and a personal touch, I can highly recommend Meru Slopes. They truly made our trip unforgettable!

5/5

We had such a great time with Meru Slopes Little Safari Company! Everything was super well organized from the start, so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Our guides were amazing – really professional and somehow always spotted the animals before anyone else. Thanks to them, we got to see everything we were hoping for.

The food was honestly fantastic (way better than we expected on safari!) and we always felt really well looked after. You could tell they’d thought of everything in advance to make the trip smooth and comfortable.

All in all, it was an unforgettable experience and we’d definitely recommend them to anyone planning a safari.

Meru slopes is an extremely reliable safari operator with excellent staff - wonderful experience!
5/5

We had an absolutely marvelous safari experience with Meru Slopes. It was my second time going on safari with Meru (after doing the same the year prior with my partner) and once again, it was amazing! From the beginning, the Meru staff was highly communicative and helpful. The person managing our booking stayed involved from start to finish to make sure we had everything we needed. Our guide, Robert, was extremely professional, experienced, and kind. He made sure we had the best possible time, always being ahead of the crowd and responding quickly to animal sightings, which allowed us to experience all the Big Five and more in just 4 days of safari. The cook was also wonderful, with 3 amazing and varied meals per day, as well as all the water and drinks you could possibly need. The Meru jeeps are in very good condition, with WiFi, comfortable seating, many charging plugs, etc. For the incredibly affordable prices that they offer, Meru gives you a lot - not just on the Safari but also before and after (airport transfer, accommodation in Arusha). They really went above and beyond, going so far as to provide us with a driver for the next morning to pick us up from another hotel that we had booked, take us to the cultural heritage center and then the airport at no extra charge. I truly recommend Meru without any hesitation for an amazing safari experience.

5/5


We booked with Meru Slopes only a couple weeks before arriving. We planned and communicated via WhatsApp, which made it very easy and I was able to ask all my questions. I travelled alone with my 3 kids, so it was important to me to know I was taken care of and able to have a one to one contact.
We wanted the budget experience, not just for economic reasons, but also because we wanted to sleep in tents. Sleeping in a tent, hearing the lions roar and being greeted by a zebra in front of your tent was truly magical.
We were so lucky to receive Stanley as our guide. He accompanied us the whole time, alongside our chef Johanni, who prepared fresh food for us 3 times a day! Both of them were so friendly and I can only highly recommend them!
Stanley has the eyes of an eagle and spots animals long before you will. He knows the area so well and I often observed other guides asking for his advice. His experience and calm will help making your safari unforgettable.

Perfect Safari in Tanzania
5/5

We went on a 4 day Safari with friends: Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP and Ngorogoro NP. We were guided by Jacob, who managed to show us the big five, the ugly five … and a lot of other animals. It was perfect. Sleeping accomodations were great: especially Tortilas Camp - giving us the possibility to have a walk with Massai to Mt. Makarut.

Rashid was very experienced.
5/5

Satisfying two powerful high profile NYC woman is not an easy venture…..but Rashid took the wheel and led us through one of the greatest adventures of our lives.

A safari is not only about the magnificence of the animal kingdom but very much a time for deep thought, surprises and the love and kindness of humanity…..Tanzanians, your welcoming spirit touched us in so many ways.
