Very responsible and responsive — always did his best to help us with our requests.
5/5

I highly recommend this safari company for anyone planning a trip to Africa!
From the very beginning, when I first reached out via email, our operator Almachius was incredibly responsible and efficient — he carefully crafted an itinerary that fully considered all my requests. Due to a last-minute change in our flight schedule, we urgently needed to postpone our trip by a day, and Almachius quickly adjusted everything for us without any issues. The itinerary he arranged was thoughtful and seamless.

As for the safari experience itself, our guide Robert was simply outstanding. With 12 years of experience, he helped us spot four of the Big Five (except for the rhino) within the first two days — truly unforgettable! He was not only skilled at tracking animals but also explained their behaviors to us, helping us understand what they were likely to do next. We saw so many animals, and Robert always patiently answered our questions and shared his knowledge.

Although we didn’t catch the Great Migration at the Mara River, we were lucky to witness a mini river crossing by wildebeest in the western Serengeti — still an incredible experience. Huge thanks to Robert for giving us such an amazing and memorable trip. I really hope to come back again during the peak migration season in July–September!

Adventure of a Lifetime
5/5

Our 6 day, 5 night safari with Meru Slopes was absolutely spectacular. They took care of everything including game driving, lodging, food, and drinks. Some of our accommodations were absolutely breathtaking. Our guide Jackson was the best and very professional. We were able to see all of the Big 5 and then some with zero car issues. Will most definitely recommend to our family and friends, and am tempted to come back!

Great experience with Meru in Tanzania
5/5

An incredible experience with Meru Slopes. Thanks to them, we enjoyed a true African experience. Special mention to the architects of this adventure, Ezekiel (guide), Rashid (chef), and Kelvin (organizer). We couldn't have had better representatives of Tanzania. The 4-day experience is ideal, as you'll see 3 different parks, each with something special, and if you're lucky, you'll get to see the Big 5 (we only got the leopard).
Highly recommended!

Great experience with Meru
5/5

A 10-star experience, highly recommended at some point. Meru exceeded my already high expectations. Thank you for the service, which couldn't have been better. Especially to our guide Ezequiel, thank you for showing us Tanzania in this way; his company was crucial. Also to our chef Rashid for the food he prepared. And to Kelvin for the prompt and friendly service throughout.

A not to be missed safari destination
5/5

From the moment we started the booking process with Gift of Meru Slopes to the unbeatable guide service provided Stanley our trusty driver/guide/concierge/organizer, the communications and responsiveness have been top level.
We just completed an 8-day mid-range Northern Circuit safari through Tarangire, the Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Crater with Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris, and it exceeded all expectations—largely thanks to our exceptional guide, Stanley.

Stanley demonstrated deep knowledge of Tanzania’s parks and wildlife. His ability to anticipate animal behavior, such as successfully predicting a cheetah’s hunt was impressive and added real depth to each sighting. He consistently found the best viewing spots, giving us incredible access to lions, leopards, rhinos, elephants, and vast herds of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle's- so many gazelles!

His calm, expert driving on rugged roads ensured we were always safe and comfortable in his reliable, much loved Land Cruiser. Stanley handled every aspect of the trip, from navigating challenging terrain to accommodating spontaneous requests, delivering delicious lunches with professionalism, patience, and good humor. Nothing was too much trouble!

It was also evident from the greetings he received on the road that he is well-respected among fellow guides and seemed to be known in many towns that we passed, which further reinforced our confidence in him.

We’ve traveled extensively over the years, and this safari organized by Meru Slopes and guided by Stanley ranks among our very top experiences. We would enthusiastically recommend both the company and especially Stanley to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania.
