Incredible Safari experience with Meru Slopes
We recently completed a 7-day safari with Meru Slopes, and it was nothing short of extraordinary from start to finish. From pickup at the airport to our final departure, every detail was flawlessly arranged, making this trip truly unforgettable. Meru Slopes organized a seamless itinerary, arranging all transportation and accommodations, including hotels, lodges, and campsites. Jerome coordinated everything with professionalism and care, ensuring a smooth, stress-free experience from day one. Our Guide and Driver: Paul was the standout highlight of our trip-a truly professional, passionate, and dedicated guide and driver.
He went above and beyond to ensure we didn't miss a thing: guiding us to spectacular views, pointing out unique plants, and sharing insightful knowledge about wildlife behavior.
Paul also offered thoughtful information about the region's geography and the diverse ethnic cultures we encountered, enriching the entire safari experience. Our cook/chef Rasheed, prepared delectable meals throughout the journey, with a great variety of dishes and refreshing drinks. The meals were consistently delicious and thoughtfully prepared, adding to the comfort and enjoyment of each day.
Our group-Martina, Mateo, Mattia, Azura, and Mari-made the trip even more memorable. Their company and camaraderie created a fun, engaging, and supportive atmosphere. We cannot imagine a more fun and unforgettable trip. Meru Slopes delivered a safari that exceeded our expectations in every way. The combination of expert guiding, thoughtful planning, excellent food, and a wonderful group made this an amazing and unforgettable adventure. I would highly recommend Meru Slopes for this kind of trip. If you're looking for a well-organized, immersive, and truly memorable safari experience, they're the right choice.

An Experience of a Lifetime
I joined the 7-Day Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Camping Safari, and as my very first safari experience, I have no regrets choosing Meru Slopes Safari and Tours. Jerome, the sales manager, was very accommodating and took care of everything from our arrival to our departure in Arusha. He personally welcomed us and ensured that we felt comfortable throughout.
Our safari guide and driver, Paul, went above and beyond to make sure we had the best views and saw the animals we wished to see—even going to extra lengths to make it happen. He was very warm, knowledgeable, and always ready to explain anything we wanted to know about the wildlife. Witnessing the Great Migration was the highlight of the trip—an unforgettable experience that I had only ever seen on social media, and I couldn’t believe I was watching it with my own eyes.
Our cook, Rashid, prepared delicious, warm meals and always greeted us with a smile. We were truly grateful for his kindness and hospitality.
Overall, it was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, and I highly recommend Meru Slopes Safari and Tours.

Perfect safari with Meru Slopes Tours and Safaris!
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!

Perfect
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.

Perfectly organised and deep experienced staff
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.

We will come back to find Leopard and repeat with Meru Slopes!
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!

Meru Slopes is a warm, professional, and well-organized team that makes you feel completely cared fo
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!
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.

Experienced and kind
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
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.
