An Outstanding 3-Day Experience with Meru Slopes!
★★★★★ An Outstanding 3-Day Experience with Meru Slopes!
I had an absolutely wonderful three-day experience with Meru Slopes in Tanzania! Everything was very well organized, professional, and enjoyable from beginning to end.
The team was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, flexible, and always willing to go the extra mile to make my experience special. Their hospitality, attention to detail, and genuine care made me feel welcome and comfortable throughout the journey.
I especially appreciated their professionalism, excellent communication, and willingness to accommodate my personal interests. They made these three days not only enjoyable but also educational and memorable.
I highly recommend Meru Slopes to anyone visiting Tanzania! A fantastic team, excellent service, and a truly unforgettable experience. Thank you for three wonderful days!

An outstanding safari operator that goes above and beyond to create unforgettable experiences.
We did a 6-day, 5-night safari with Meru Slopes, and it was everything we could have hoped for and more!
The itinerary, taking us through Tarangire, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro, was perfectly planned. In between our game drives, we stayed at beautiful, luxurious lodges nestled in nature, which made the entire experience even more special.
A huge thank you to our guide, Gideon, who made sure we got to see all of the Big Five up close! He went out of his way to look for the animals that were particularly important to us – and managed to find every single one. He was also happy to keep driving well into the evening so we could make the most of every moment out in the bush.
We would also like to give a special mention to Wilfred, our sales representative. Before, during and even after the trip, he was always incredibly responsive and quick to answer all our questions. He also went out of his way to offer helpful advice for the rest of our stay in Zanzibar. On top of that, he arranged two thoughtful complimentary surprises for us, which we truly appreciate!
From beginning to end, we felt incredibly well taken care of. Everything was thoughtfully organized, the team went above and beyond, and the entire experience was truly exceptional.
We would recommend Meru Slopes without hesitation to any friends or family considering a safari in Tanzania. Thank you for making this such an unforgettable experience!

best Safari operator! Jerome personalized our trip perfectly and Rachid was the best possible guide
Meru Slopes is simply great: Jerome helped us organize our trip in every detail and made sure to make the experience memorable by informing all the accommodation that we were celebrating our anniversary. Rachid, the guide, was exceptional: safe drive, very knowledgeable and kind. He could spot animals from very far and allowed us to see even many leopards, cheetahs and lions. All the lodges were very clean and comfortable and the price is really competitive compared to other companies that offer the exact same services. I truly recommend them!

An unforgettable safari with breathtaking landscapes, amazing wildlife, and magical moments!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Absolutely Unforgettable Safari Experience with Meru Slopes!
Our 4-day private safari with Meru Slopes was truly the experience of a lifetime! From beginning to end, everything was perfectly organized, exceeding all our expectations.
Communication with Jerome was absolutely excellent from the very first contact. He was always responsive, professional, helpful, and attentive to every detail, making the entire planning process smooth and stress-free.
Our guide, Julius, was simply outstanding! Extremely knowledgeable, patient, passionate, and experienced, he taught us so much about wildlife, animal behavior, nature, and the incredible ecosystems of Tanzania. His ability to spot animals and explain their behavior made every game drive fascinating. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide!
We were incredibly lucky to see all of the Big Five, along with countless other animals throughout our journey. Every single day brought new surprises and magical encounters.
What made this safari even more special was experiencing three completely different and spectacular landscapes:
Tarangire National Park amazed us with its majestic baobab trees, beautiful scenery, and incredible concentration of wildlife.
The Serengeti was simply breathtaking! Endless plains, extraordinary wildlife encounters, and that indescribable feeling of being immersed in the African wilderness.
And finally, Ngorongoro Crater was the perfect grand finale! A truly magical place, with stunning landscapes and wildlife everywhere. The perfect way to end an already extraordinary adventure!
We traveled in November, and the experience was absolutely fantastic, with animals everywhere and unforgettable sightings throughout the safari.
Meru Slopes is an exceptional company, and we wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone dreaming of an authentic African safari. A huge thank you to Jerome and Julius for making this journey so special.
We will treasure these memories forever and recommend Meru Slopes to everyone!
Five stars are simply not enough!

unforgettable experience
My dad and I had an incredible and unforgettable experience. With the help of Muddy—a highly professional, punctual, and kind guide who conducted the tour in Spanish—we were able to witness nature in its purest form and learn about the lives, gestation, and diets of the animals we encountered. We thoroughly enjoyed every safari and the thrill of searching for wildlife. Furthermore, we loved each of the hotels we stayed at; the staff and managers were incredibly kind and attentive, and the facilities were excellent, offering great food and comfortable rooms. We came away with far more than we had expected.

AN UNFORGETTABLE SAFARI – THANK YOU GODFREY! 🦁❤️
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
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
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
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.
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.
