Everything was amazing and we had the best experience we could ask for!
Everything was amazing and we had the best experience we could ask for. Everything was planned into the detail, thank you for that!
Our guide Robert was amazing! He made a huge effort every day so we could see all the animals. His experience and knowledge were very valuable, because he was able to choose and put us always in the best spots. He quickly adapted to our group and knows a lot about all the animals and where to find them. He also drove to more far away and remote places so we could see the animals in their habitats without other jeeps nearby, which gave us a very special experience.
Gideon cooked the best food, tasted like grandma’s food, it felt like we were home, and he was always kind, happy and energetic! We were very spoiled by him!
We already miss them both! If you can choose your guide and cook, ask for them and you will not regret.
Every other guide, cook and driver that we met were also very kind and helpful. They always put the best word about Meru Slopes, it was nice to hear that they also like working with you!
We will for sure be back! And when we do, it will be with Meru Slopes!

It is a incredible experience that everyone has to live at least one time on their live
The communication from the beginning was 10/10, I thought, attentive and quick to answer any questions, they helped us with everything we needed, they picked us up from the airport and we stayed at their hotel in the center of Arusha. The safari was a true marvel. Our guide Enru had over 25 years of experience in his work and it was amazing how with his eyes he could see many animals in the distance. We were able to see practically all the animals, we missed seeing the leopard since it is very difficult to see, but the rest we saw everything. Chef Gardiola accompanied us during the safari days and every day we had breakfast, lunch and dinner with authentic and delicious local food. Finally, we had a tour of the city of Arusha with Victor and if the safari experience was already unforgettable, the tour with Victor was the icing on the cake. He showed us everything we wanted to see, we ate at local places and lived the experience to the fullest. We took a great friend from Tanzania with us as he was undoubtedly exemplary. Everything he did was clearly done from the heart and we couldn't feel more at home.
It's definitely worth the price you pay. There are many companies that offer even less and are more expensive. I couldn't be happier with my experience with Mery Slopes Tours and I will recommend it to anyone who asks, as everything went fantastically beyond our expectations.

Excelente 🙌
It was a spectacular experience from start to finish. We especially want to highlight Jerome's help, who from the first contact guided us with tremendous patience and professionalism in choosing the tour that best suited our needs. Thanks to him, everything went smoothly.
The food was a pleasant surprise: Bubba, the chef, is a true genius. Everything was delicious, and the best part is that if you have any food intolerances, they have everything covered. In our group, there were people with gluten and lactose intolerances, and they prepared adapted menus without any problem and with great attention to detail.
And Samuel, our guide and driver, was simply incredible. Always smiling, super professional, he made us feel safe, well cared for, and taught us a lot during the tour.
We were able to see the Big 5 🙌
We recommend this experience 100%. We would return without hesitation!

Incredible experience! 5 stars without a doubt.
We were delighted with our safari; it definitely deserves the highest rating! From the very beginning, Jerome helped us organize everything and guided us in finding the tour that best suited our needs. His attention and advice were key to making everything perfect.
The food was another strong point: Bubba, the chef, was a 10! Everything was delicious, and they were also extremely attentive to our intolerances. In our case, we needed gluten-free and lactose-free options, and by simply letting them know in advance, they had everything prepared and were very attentive throughout the trip.
And of course, we can't fail to mention Samuel, our guide and driver, who was exceptional. Professional, friendly, always willing to help and share his knowledge, he made the safari an even more special experience.
Thanks to the entire team for an unforgettable adventure!

Carrying. They were with us since the moment we entered Arusha. Granted all our wishes
The value for money is really there. They kept an active communication. Rashid was an awesome guide, got the best spots every time we saw an animal and spotted animals from everywhere. we got to see all the animals. They don’t mind to get a little of schedule if you ask them to. Food was also great, Bonge cooked the best plates and always gave us what we wanted.

An experience that changed our hole trip!
Our experience was truly incredible, one we will remember for the rest of our lives! Starting with the attention we received before and after the tour from Gift Tembo and the drivers who picked us up in Kilimanjaro airport and left us in Moshi, all included. Camping experience was the best, hearing the sounds of different animals at night and sharing with beautiful people. Our driver for the safari was Robert, an unimaginable source of knowledge and excellent professional, taking us everywhere with passion, he showed us the parks as we wouldn’t have dreamed of, from seeing lion cubs to a live hunting. Also, we had special diet requirements that the chef, Gideon, took into serious consideration but also combined with the best flavors.
We are very very happy of having chosen this great team, we couldn’t ask for more in any way! Thank you guys for everything!

Professional and lovely people
My safari experience with Meru Slopes was wonderful. It was really exciting and full of adventure. We toured the parks with Robert, an excellent driver and guide who took us to see the big five and the ugly five, and made sure we had the best experience seeing the animals and telling us fun facts or answering our questions. He even managed to get us to see a leopard and a lion hunt, which are not so common. His attention and perseverance was key to that. We slept the first night in a lodge and then in tents, but super comfortable with a mattress and pillows and sleeping bag. We also had the wonderful cook Guideon who made us varied and healthy meals following our preferences, a loving attention. I take these days in my heart, I think they will be unforgettable!

The Best Honeymoon Decision: Meru Slopes Safari
We booked our safari tour through Meru Slopes, and it was truly the best decision we made.
Since it was our honeymoon and we had limited time, we contacted several tour companies—but only Almachius from Meru Slopes took the time to carefully customize the itinerary to fit our schedule. He responded quickly and created multiple quote options for us. Thanks to his efforts, we were able to experience so much in a short time—from the balloon tour to Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater—all while staying at the best accommodations within our budget. It was the perfect balance of comfort and adventure.
During the tour, the vehicle was in great condition, schedules were followed precisely, and our guide Samuel was absolutely phenomenal. He was incredibly professional and knowledgeable. Miraculously, every time we mentioned an animal we wanted to see—he somehow found it for us! He also made sure to check in with us regularly to see how we were feeling, which made us feel really cared for throughout the trip.
Despite the short itinerary, we were able to see an incredible variety of wildlife—countless lions, lion cubs, baby cheetahs, five rhinos, hippos fighting in the water, a leopard, and so many other rare animals. It was a truly magical and unforgettable experience.
If we ever return for another safari, especially with our parents, we will definitely choose Meru Slopes again.

2nd time in a row - The Very Best Safari Company and Guides
2nd time in a row - The Best Safari Company Guides
This was my second time, in 6 months, on a safari with Meru Slopes (Oct 2024 & May 2025) and each time, I and my traveling companions were so very very satisfied and happy. After my first trip in October 2024, I was confident in recommending Meru Slopes and Safari Guide, Douglas to a group of friends for the same safari tour in May 2025.
1) Scheduling & Arranging:
Gift October 2024
Jerome May, 2025
Both Gift and Jerome are so very very responsive, thorough, polite, professional, friendly, truly considerate and kind! They made the scheduling process and all follow-up actions: payment, lodging arrangements, customized itinerary, pickups and drop offs, so easy. They are so thorough and pay such great attention to detail that we never had complications with the arrangements and they were flexible in adjusting our plan when needed. It's so very impressive that they came to meet us (each separate time) at the end of our safari to gather 1st hand feedback & to thank us for scheduling our trip with them. 100% plus fully satisfied clients.
2) Safari Guides
Douglas: In May 2024 my husband and I first met Douglas while on safari with Meru Slopes. His 16 years of experience in wildlife safari guiding, knowledge of the various Tanzanian tribe cultures, expertise in auto mechanics, and genuine kindness & professionalism are exceptional. Every day of our busy schedule he was prompt & prepared, and the Land Cruiser was glisteningly clean & stocked with supplies (water, binoculars, wildlife identification books). Each day Douglas informed us of what to expect & when to meet the following day - all the while asking for our preferences & ready to resolve any issues (we had none!) Best of all, Douglas met us with a smile and genuine interest in getting to know us and willing to share aspects of his personal life. We soon felt like we knew his family and were his friend. One of Douglas's most impressive talents is his ability to sense where the shy animals are and how to approach them. He consistently alerted us to photo opportunities & helped us understand the wildlife behaviors and interactions in the "circle of life". I learned quickly I could trust Douglas to do his very best, above and beyond expectations, and that he truly cared that we all had the most fabulous experience. He never seemed to tire of the safari experience, even with long days, and his caring and concerns for the wildlife and his clients. Even after my return home, Douglas periodically sends me messages and always remembers to ask how our safari companions & my husband, are doing. I have the highest regard for Douglas and can recommend him to others with the certainty others will be equally thrilled to get to know him & experience Tanzania with him.
Nixon: Due to flight scheduling issues I spent an extra day in Arusha and Nixon was my guide and driver. What a delight he his! We chatted about life and work, family and relationships. He was so prompt and considerate in picking me and dropping me off, and he had so much to share about life in Tanzania. I had a very pleasant time getting to know Jerome and was very impressed with the attention he pays to his work and his clients.
