Organised, brilliant safari and good fun
5/5

I was emailing Geofrey before we left and he gave us advice about what to take and the itinerary for the safari. He said we would get picked up for the airport and I must admit, I was nervous that no one would be there when we arrived but as we walked through the airport someone was there to collect us. The hotel they provide is basic but clean and has everything you need. We did the four day safari with a group of 6 and it was brilliant. The safari was well organized, the camping was excellent and the team (Hilary and our chef) were very professional. Hilary was a brilliant guide - we saw so many animals very close up and he had excellent knowledge. I really recommend this tour - the camping was fun, the food was very good and we also made lifelong friends.

Really great budget camping safari
5/5

I was very satisfied with my 6 day budget camping safari. I saw the same large animals as people in the luxury tours, and sometimes got closer or saw more unusual animals, such as a serval cat, because our vehicle didn't have to stay with a group. Plus our guide (Sareva) seemed to know all the birds that we encountered, and there were many, but had a book to consult with if he was a little uncertain. The guide was great at finding animals, and didn't mind honoring our requests when we wanted to stop or to move on. Email communication with the office before the trip was good, the guide and cook were friendly, the food was fine, and overall it was great.

Couldn't have had a more perfect safari experience
5/5

100% recommend - have been recommending this company to friends and family since returning. We had Hilary as our guide (hope I've spelt that right!) He was so friendly and relaxed and his ability to spot animals from miles away was incredible. We saw everything you could possibly see (including rhino!) He was able to answer all of our questions and was happy to adapt the tour to what we wanted. Made every effort to help us get the most out of our experience and was so knowledgeable! (knew where certain animals were likely to be hiding at what time etc). Couldn't have had a better safari so no need to go anywhere else. Very well priced as well - I found this company after hour of scouring the internet! 100% recommend this company and ask for Hilary :)

Amazing experience with great friendly guides, accommodation, food
5/5

Ask for David as safari guide. He is awesome, funny, and very knowledgeable. Also ask for Action as a chef. He made killer food for us every meal! Geofrey was also fantastic with email communication throughout the whole process.

David is the Lion King!!!!- he made us count more than 100+ lions in the wild. amazing!

4 days Safari
5/5

Got picked up from airport as agreed, very good hotel (taking into account that you are in Tanzania) and we went to safari next day. 4 days in wilderness were one of the greatest experiences in my life and supported by great cook (what he did without proper electricity and only with gas bomb was unbelievable, the chocolate cake last evening almost brought tears to my eyes :D) and driver/guide David, who was fun and knowledgable at the same time, thank you very much for everything!!
... on the other hand, be prepared that you will be staying in complete wilderness in tents, so showers/toilets might be a little "Spartan"

Unforgettable experience and outstanding service!!
5/5

I did 7 days safari with Meru Slopes and I could not recommend them enough! Clear and prompt communication answering all the questions I had, very patient and not pushy to book with them.

The safari was impeccable from the beginning to the end - I was picked from the airport, welcomed and immediately checked in the hotel, start of the safari on the next day with both our driver and cook very professional and easy going. We were lucky to see the big 5 and also wildebeests migration.

They delivered on everything agreed and beyond! The safari was my personal treat for my birthday and Meru Slopes surprised me very pleasantly by organising double surprise - first one by the cook early in the morning whilst we were still in Ngorongoro crater and another one later on when we got back in the hotel. They had made a beautiful and tasty birthday cake, gave me presents and the whole Meru Slopes team sang "Happy Birthday" to me!

Thank you ever so much Geofrey and everyone from Meru Slopes team for the unforgettable experience!

Book with confidence. You will not be disappointed!

Asante sana marafiki!

Great experience!
5/5

I took a 5 days safari with Meru Slopes and I had a great experience. Since the first minute I was able to talk with Meru Slopes' operator, who kindly answered all my questions. The tour it self worked perfectly: they picked me up in the airport and did everything that was planned as it was described in the itinerary. The operator, guide and cooker was very kind with me and I always felt safe. The tour it self was more that what I expected! We saw the big five and we were able to get very very close to the animals and to enjoy the great sorroundings. Additionally, I left my kindle in the safari car and they sent it to me to other city. I really aprecciate it! Great people and tour!

Out of the world!
5/5

We were picked up at the Arusha airport by Geoffrey who introduced us to our guide Sereva and our cook Amidi, the best we could have asked for. Sereva is a leader in true sense of the word, he knew where to find the animals and had the patience to keep up with each and every one in the group and has the knowledge that enriches your experience. He accommodated every one's need with a smile.
Amidi's cooking was wonderful, we hogged on food at the end of the day and everything was delicious.
The safari it self is an experience that leaves you spell bound. They organised everything perfectly, we slept in tents on all the campsites where we were visited by various animals. The communication was clear and fast.
I would definitely recommend Meru slopes for a real experience, not a luxury experience mind you.
