The perfect operator to have one of the best experience of our life.
An unforgettable safari experience
Our 3-day safari, including the Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater, was one of the most beautiful experiences of our lives.
The landscapes were absolutely breathtaking, and the density and diversity of wildlife exceeded all our expectations. Being surrounded by such incredible nature, with animals living freely in their natural environment, gave us a feeling of being in complete communion with nature. It is an experience we will never forget.
But this safari would not have been the same without the exceptional team who looked after us throughout the trip.
First and foremost, Andrew, our driver and guide, was simply incredible. He knows the parks like the back of his hand, has an amazing ability to find animals, and knows exactly where to go and when to go there. His knowledge, experience, patience and passion made every game drive special. We honestly believe Andrew is one of the best guides you can have in Tanzania.
Andrew was accompanied by Gadiel, our cook, who was absolutely outstanding. He prepared all our meals with great skill, even in the middle of the wilderness. Every meal was delicious and beautifully prepared — far beyond what we expected from a safari.
A huge thank you to both of them for making this adventure so special.
We can only highly recommend Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris to anyone looking for an unforgettable, authentic and affordable safari experience in Tanzania.
An extraordinary experience, an amazing team, and memories that will stay with us for the rest of our lives. Asante sana Andrew and Gadiel!

Flawless organization, great food, see you soon!
I would like to extend my sincere thanks to the entire team at this tour operator for organizing a truly flawless expedition. From start to finish, everything was absolutely top-notch.
As a photographer, planning a trip involves complex logistics, tight schedules, and very specific requirements on the ground. The agency demonstrated incredible professionalism and flexibility, accommodating all my photographic needs with utmost care and efficiency. Thanks to their meticulous planning, I was able to focus entirely on my work knowing every detail was handled seamlessly.
The selection of the lodge, the outstanding quality of the food, and the expertise of the local guide were all a testament to their commitment to excellence. A special thank you goes to the entire team for being so attentive, caring, and responsive throughout the entire process.
Working with such a dedicated team has been an absolute pleasure. See you next year for the next adventure!

Leave Europe behind
In preparation of the journey I communicated with Jerome who proved to be extremely committed and always ready to respond immediately to my wishes. During the safari we were guided by Patrick who is a very experienced driver and travel guide and was able to find wildlife away from the crowds. We particularly enjoyed the day at Ngorongoro Crater with a scenery so different from ordinary life that you feel like in Garden Eden. As for accomodation in Arusha I recommend that travellers check the descriptions carefully before approving and let Jerome know exactly what you want and what you do not want so he can make the necessary arrangements and avoid disappointment.

Wonderful safari that created lifelong memories
We had a very well-planned and memorable safari experience. The entire trip was thoughtfully organized, and the booking process was smooth from the beginning. Jerome was extremely helpful in customizing the itinerary and was also very understanding and supportive when we had to reschedule due to a family emergency.
Our driver-guide, Ombeni, was friendly, professional, and a very safe driver. He took great effort to help us see the Big Five and made the game drives enjoyable without ever feeling rushed. He was also very patient and accommodating, which was especially important as we were travelling with a 3.5-year-old child.
The safari vehicle was excellent, comfortable, and well stocked, which made a big difference during the long drives. Most importantly, the trip created lifelong memories for our little one, which made the experience truly special for us as a family.
Overall, it was a carefully arranged, family-friendly safari experience, and we would happily recommend them.

Fantastic Safari with Guide Daniel Mbise
We had an incredible 7‑day safari in Tanzania with Daniel Mbise as our guide.
Daniel is knowledgeable, patient and very thoughtful. He knew exactly where to spot wildlife and always took good care of our whole group throughout the trip.
It was such a wonderful journey. We really enjoyed every moment, and we felt so reluctant to say goodbye at the end. Highly recommend Daniel if you are planning a safari in Tanzania!

Great experience with Meru!
The experience with Meru Slopes has been great since from the beginning, since we started planning our itinerary with Gift Tembo, always available.
We decided to go for a 5 days safari going through Tarengire, Ngorongoro, Central Serengeti and North Serengeti to try and catch the Mara river crossing. We made it, however our favourite part was Ngorongoro and Central Serengeti, not to miss!
Our guide Andrew was also very experienced and explained a lot on the animals, the landscape and local culture. We recommend this tour operator!

"An Unforgettable Family Safari with an Exceptional Team"
Our family has just returned from an unforgettable safari in Tanzania, and we couldn't be happier with our experience with Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris.
From the very beginning, Gift Tembo was outstanding. He was always available, responsive, and highly professional, taking the time to understand exactly the kind of trip we were looking for. He patiently answered all our questions, accommodated our requests, and helped us create a tailor-made itinerary that exceeded our expectations.
A very special thank you goes to our guide and driver, Samuel. His knowledge of the parks, wildlife, and Tanzanian culture, together with his driving skills and ability to spot animals, made every game drive an incredible experience. He guided us through the three parks in the best possible way, allowing us to experience nature at its finest.
Another heartfelt thank you goes to Buga, our chef, who became a true icon of our group. Every meal was delicious, varied, and carefully prepared, making everyone in our family—including our children—look forward to mealtime every day. His warmth, kindness, and good humor made the camping experience even more special.
Thanks to this exceptional team, our journey was perfectly organized from start to finish and gave us memories that will stay with us for a lifetime.
We wholeheartedly recommend Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris to anyone looking for a professionally organized, authentic, and unforgettable safari experience in Tanzania. Thank you, Gift, Samuel, and Buga—we hope to see you again one day!

Meru Slopes: generosity, professionalism, care and the big five. Unforgettable.
We had the most amazing experience at the safari and me and my partner are so glad to have chosen Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris! We did it after carefully reviewing a number of websites and couldn't have made a better choice. Here's a few points that will hopefully help the others to choose. We went for a 6 days/5 nights safari. While it was a budget safari, the treatment was royal and there was nothing budget about it, from what I could see, the only difference would be where we slept (3 nights in camps vs lodges). Even two other nights were in a lodge not on a camping, and being in a camping was a positive experience - two nights in the middle of the Serengeti, and at the rim of the Ngorongoro crater, we had see zebras walking among tents. While on a subject of lodging - Meru Slopes also added the night before the safari and the one before in a hotel in Arusha with dinner and breakfast, free of charge. We didn't know we needed towels for campsites - they lent us two from the hotel. Nothing was a problem. This generosity extended across the safari. Food and drink was aplenty, and delicious, cooked by our excellent cook Godi. I will forever remember amazing salads, pancakes for breakfast, Tanzanian pizzas, and other Tanzanian specialties that Godi magically created to the same level, whether it was in a lodge or a campsite. Last but definitely not least was our amazing guide Lobulo. So knowledgeable, we learned lots about Tanzania and animals, an excellent driver and animal spotter. We saw the big five, more than 50 lions, a cheetah and plenty of other animals. And I would like to add a thank you to our contact at Meru Slopes, Gift, who organized our stay, and had patience to answer all the questions. I was really touched by care, generosity and respect to every sort of tourist, and genuine will to show the country. Ah - jeeps with opening roof were great, there were binoculars for everyone. And we were picked up at the airport and dropped off when leaving. The whole package so that one doesn't have to worry about anything. I would definitely go with Meru Slopes again, and ask for Lobulo and Godi to be a guide and cook again! Thank you for this experience, it has been an unforgettable one!
