Professional and attentive; wonderful guide
Last week, I went on safari with Meru Slopes and it was the best traveling experience I have ever had!
To begin, in choosing the company, I compared various companies. I compared the number of days of safari, services, and accommodations, and Meru Slopes stood out the most because of its fair pricing. For instance, while other companies may have been slightly cheaper, there were additional costs that made the cost higher in the end, or, in contrast, there were companies that offered the same exact same services at a higher price.
Once I settled on Meru Slopes, I was in constant communication with Jerome, who was very attentive, informative, and quick to respond. His email communications made me feel at ease that I was dealing with a professional company, and gave me reassurance that I had chosen the right company. Jerome was so helpful that he even answered some questions regarding flights to Zanzibar, which was a separate matter from their services. I thought that was very kind of him to answer questions that were outside the scope of their services.
Then, when we (my mother and I (f)) finally arrived in Tanzania, airport pickup was smooth and easy and we were taken to our lovely accommodation for the night before heading out to safari the following morning. The next morning we met the face of Meru Slopes, Jerome, and our guide, Julius, aka Little Lion.
I have to say that I believe that we had the most wonderful experience on safari in Tanzania because of Julius. Since we met him, Julius was cheerful, energetic, and full of information to share. He was so attentive and kind to us, that it felt like we had met up with family or a longtime friend. On safari, he did the best he could to help us see the Big 5. Thankfully, we were blessed and did get to see them all, even Rhinos in Ngorongoro! Julius definitely made the trip an experience of a lifetime and we hope to see him again in the future!
Overall, safari with Meru Slopes was amazing! I can’t wait to recommend them to my family and friends for their next safari adventure. All the parks we visited, Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro, were wonderful and we saw plenty of wildlife, zebra, wildebeest, giraffes, hippos, lions, cheetahs, leopards, antelope and the like, as well as plenty of elephants. Often time, we had very close encounters with these animals, even hyenas, which made the game drives so exhilarating.
So, if you’re read this far, don’t think about it any further and book with Meru Slopes! I am confident you will have a wonderful time with them. As someone who saw other tour companies operate while there, trust me, Meru Slopes is a safe and reliable company to work with.

5/5 experience!
Absolutely perfect!
My boyfriend and I had the amazing opportunity to do a safari with Meru Slopes, guided by Geoffery. Everything was beyond our expectations: very professional, always on time, attentive to every detail, and ready to accommodate all our requests. Booking was super easy thanks to Kelvin’s efficiency, and a special thanks goes to our chef for the delicious food! Thanks to Geoffery’s expertise, we were able to spot so many animals and enjoy an unforgettable experience. If you’re planning a safari in Tanzania, I highly recommend booking with Meru Slopes!

Profis, organised, friendly and polite
We did the 6 day camping migration safari. We were thrilled. Everything was as explained before from our meruslopes contact Shadrack (live communication with what's up before the trip and he always answered everything immediately) and the experience was breath taking.
It involves really long drive hours and lots of dust but our driver and guide Juma made it really pleasant and adventurous. Because of his experience and abilities we were able to see everything and enjoy the incredible landscape.
Buga our chef was preparing all the meals every day and the food was amazing tasty (I have to give special credits for the soups) .
We only need to thank meruslopes.

Amazing Serena lodges experience as well. Highly recommend

Attentive service and experienced driver and guide, very flexible in customizing trip options
We just finished our 1st safari tour with Meru Slopes and it was a wonderful experience. Jerome, Nickson, Kennedy and Ombeni (our safari guide) were very dedicated in making sure we got an unforgettable trip in Tanzania. We also got to see all of the Big Fives! The accomodations inside the national parks are surprisingly comfortable and sunrise/sunset views were stunning :). The food is good and healthy and they changed the menu daily :). After this trip we want to come visit Africa again. Thanks Jerome for making our trip as smooth as possible.
wonderful

Elevated Safari Experience at a Mid-Range Price
Our safari experience with Meru Slopes was nothing short of amazing. My husband and I spent seven days in a private jeep exploring multiple parks during the Great Migration.
Our guide, Edwin, was a big part of what made our trip so memorable. He was incredibly professional and personable. We felt extremely safe with him as our driver and as our guide around the wild animals. His English was phenomenal and he was a joy to be around (which is a big perk as you are with your driver for 8+ hours each day).
The accommodations during the length of our stay were a mix of hotels and glamping sites. Each place we stayed at was spectacular. The hotels they put us up in were a tier above what we expected and the glamping sites all had WiFi, electricity, and hot water within our structured tent. The staff at each stay were incredibly helpful and proactive.
Food and drinks (water, soda, beer, and wine) were included as part of this package. Breakfast and dinner were all buffet styles at each accommodation with a picnic-style lunch every day. The food was a mix of local delicacies and western food, all of which was delicious.
Over the course of our tour, we visited three national parks, Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorogoro. All of them were filled with beautiful scenery and an abundance of wildlife. Edwin skillfully drove us around each park and it felt as if we left no stone unturned. We saw numerous lions, cheetahs, elephants, hippos, and buffalo in addition to seeing a wildebeest crossing as part of the Great Migration.
When it came to booking this tour, Jerome made it incredibly easy and hassle-free. He was able to answer all of our questions ahead of time and ensured we had all of the proper information leading up to our trip.
Overall, I would recommend this tour to any couple looking for an elevated safari experience at a mid-range price.
