Alan took such good care of us, drove expertly through the parks, and knew all the best places!
Our 5 night, 6 day private tour through Tarangire, Ngorogoro, and Serengeti
Parks was stupendous. We endured the bumps and the dust for the ultimate enjoyment of connecting with the elephants, lions, cheetahs, buffalo, giraffes, wildebeest, and so much more.
At first we signed up for the budget group tour, but we were so happy to upgrade! For a little extra, we were pampered and spoiled by all the personal attention and comfort available… well worth it!

Awesome trip!
We had an amazing time with Meru Slopes! Our tour guide Andrew knew everything about the animals and plants we saw on safari and took the patience to answer all of our questions. The communication with Almachius went easy and was very friendly as well! Bewaren that in the tour information it says binoculars are included. But only our guide has his own personal binocular with him, not company property. He shared it with us. Another improvement could have been our first night at The Tourist Inn. Our room wasn't clean, towels smelled and had stains on them and you could hear street noise outside. Sleep was hard to come by, but ofcourse greatly needed when going on a safari sleeping in the wilderness in the nights to come. The last night we had the same hotel booked. We didn't want the same experience as before so we switched hotels for our last night. If you go low budget ofcourse you will have some low quality accomodations, but for us having a good nights rest and a clean shower/towels was non-negotiable. Overall we would definitely recommend Meru Slopes! We had such a good time, saw the big 5 and felt we were in good hands. Asante Sana!

Great safari with passionate guides
Went with a mate for a safari trip (6 days) and hiking Kilimanjaro ( 2days) . We really liked the safari - was well organised and got to see the big 5. Our safari guide Nuru was awesome and really passionate about his job - made the experience really fun when the guide is keen and looking out for the animals! Unfortunately we didn’t see the migration despite camping there for the full day - the wilder beasts didn’t seem to want to cross that day. 2 nights in the Serengeti was definitely the right call and camping overnight was something else - seeing elephants close to our camps and hearing distant lion roars at dawn.
We had a small hiccup on our hiking trip - we were supposed to have an overnight camp but the park rules changed and didn’t allow short camps. This was unfortunate and we didn’t find out until the gate due to the admin mismatch but our guide worked with us to provide a very reasonable refund for the missed portion of the itenary - and provided alternative activities to explore the town nearby instead.
Loved the experience overall - and shoutout to our guide organisers (Gift) and safari guide Nuru.

Great organization with clear communication at attractive prices
Very proactive communication from the initial contact; highly attractive price offer compared to its peers; great tour guide; stunning tour across ngoro ngoro, serengeti and tarangire; awesome food provided by the 'stomach doctor' - overall a very cool experience!

Dependable
With my family, I booked an 8-day tour to Serengeti National Park mid July through Meru Slopes and Safari. I was truly impressed with their professional approach and the clearly detailed itinerary provided.
Mr. Shadrack from Meru Slopes was in touch with us from the beginning until the end of the trip. He was always approachable and quick to respond whenever I reached out, which made the planning and coordination very smooth.
Three cheers to our guide, Mr. Lobulu! He truly made our trip memorable with his cheerful personality and deep knowledge of the wildlife. As with any safari, there can be challenges along the road, but he handled everything expertly without letting it affect our schedule.
I strongly recommend requesting Mr. Lobulu as your guide if you're planning a visit to Serengeti National Park.

Friendly and Reliable
We had a great time on our 5 night, 6 day safari. We read about meru slopes through reviews and they did not disappoint. While we were in the process of booking we had all of our questions answered promptly and were able to make a quick decision because of their fast response time.
Almachius met us the day before at our hotel to have a safari briefing and answer any questions we may have. We felt good after having the briefing.
Our driver Max was a very polite, friendly and knowledgeable man who we felt very lucky to have had as a driver. He drove very safe, was a smooth shifter and had great knowledge of every bump in the road. We were asked what we really wanted to see and he did his best to make sure we were able to see everything possible. I wouldn't have wanted a different driver. It was a pleasure getting to know him and are grateful for the time we spent together.
Our stays at hotels and camps were all nice and it was great to not think about anything and just be driven to each hotel or camp and picked up in the morning. Max was always early and waiting for us which we read alot of other companies not do well. Also, out vehicle was very reliable, another reason I booked with them. Many vehicles were on the side of the road broken down but not one meru slopes jeep. You definitely can tell they're well maintained vehicles.
Lastly, we were driven to the airport by Nixon. We had an amazing conversation all the way to the airport and enjoyed the ride. We were 15 minutes early and he was already waiting for us. This takes away some stress because the company has your money and the safari is done so you may wonder will they show up on time or at all. They definitely came through with a comfortable van to get us from Arusha to Mount Kilimanjaro Airport.
All in all we would definitely recommend this company and it's very clear that they are well managed and do a great job hiring drivers.

A great Safari with Meru Slopes
We took a 8 day Serengeti and migration tour with Meru Slopes and had a great time. Shadrack who prepared our itinerary was patient and professional in helping us with an itinerary that fully met our requests. Our driver and guide, Domician, is very knowledgeable and knows all the animals an plants. He was constantly in communication with fellow drivers to get first hand info about the animals and try hard to get a good spot for us to take pictures. We were lucky to see the wildbeest migration which was magnificent. All the tented camps were nice, food and service was super good. This trip was amazing! Asante sana!

Perfect experience!
Excellent 7-day tour to Tarangire/Serengeti/Ngorongoro/Lake Manyara with Andrew!
We would also like to thank chef Bonge for the delicious food he prepared every day, as well as our consultant Kelvin.
We would highly recommend Meru Slopes for their professionalism, kindness, and availability!

Amazing experience! Highly recommend this tour
2 of my girl friends and I from Australia did 7 days Serengeti tour with Meru slopes. Requesting the quote and adjusting the dates and itinerary per our request was very smooth. The communication was easy and quick.
We were welcomed warmly when we arrived by Shedrack. He was very helpful and organized an express laundry for us in 1.5 hours. ( we were already travelling for 3 weeks and our tour was starting the day after arrival so we needed laundry)
Our tour guide Patrick was amazing. Very knowledgeable, patient and always smiling. Most importantly he is very passionate about what he does and went out of the way to show us the animals. He has good eye for sure!
The food was good too.
We were also very lucky on one day seeing all big five ☺️
We had incredibly enjoyable time with this tour. Highly recommended
