Wonderful experience at an affordable price thanks to manager Gift and expert guide Jacob
5/5



We had an amazing 6-day safari across Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Meru Slopes. Traveling as a group of six friends, this was truly a memorable and fun trip.

Special thanks to our tour manager, Gift, who helped us plan everything so smoothly. From patiently answering all our questions (since this was our first safari) to selecting wonderful hotels with excellent food—including Indian chefs who made us feel right at home—everything was handled with great care.

Our guide, Jacob, was outstanding. Extremely knowledgeable about the Serengeti and wildlife, he ensured we managed to spot the Big Five and much more. His warmth, expertise, and easygoing nature made us feel comfortable and enriched the entire safari experience.

Overall, Meru Slopes gave us a great deal, excellent service, and memories we’ll always cherish. Highly recommended to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania!

Incredible Honeymoon experience with Meru Slopes!
5/5

We just got back from an amazing 8-night/9-day honeymoon safari in Tanzania with Meru Slopes, and we honestly can’t recommend them enough. We visited Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, Central Serengeti, Northern Serengeti, and Lake Manyara—each spot was so different and brought new exciting game sightings. The scenery, the wildlife, the whole experience was just unreal. Everything was super well organized, and the whole trip went off without a hitch.

Our guide Max was an absolute standout. He’s been guiding for over 10 years, and his deep knowledge of the parks and animals really made the trip. He always seemed to know where to go and what to look for, and we saw so much thanks to him. It was also clear he’s really respected in the guiding community—lots of other guides greeted him by name out in the bush. On top of all that, he was an incredibly safe driver, which we really appreciated on those long stretches and bumpy roads.

Jerome handled all the logistics and planning, and was fantastic from start to finish. He even helped us adjust our itinerary just a couple weeks before the trip to fit in an extra day due to a flight change, which made everything so much smoother. We also did two excursions around Arusha, and had Nickson and Edison as our guides—both were super friendly, knowledgeable, and added so much to the overall experience.

We went with mid-level luxury for our accommodations, staying in a mix of bush camps and lodges, and every place we stayed at was great—super comfortable, amazing food, and beautiful settings. It was the perfect mix of comfort and adventure.

This was a dream honeymoon, and Meru Slopes really made it something we’ll never forget. If you’re thinking about a safari in Tanzania, don’t hesitate—these guys are the real deal.

P.s. - they surprised us with a “Just Married” wheel cover for the trip!

Meru Slopes Made Our Honeymoon Truly Unforgettable!!
5/5

Our honeymoon safari with Meru Slopes was absolutely magical! We did a 9-day trip through Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara, and every moment was unforgettable.

Max, our guide, was amazing—kind, knowledgeable, and always knew the best spots for wildlife. Jerome made planning seamless, and Nickson and Edison went above and beyond by taking us to hot springs, a waterfall, and a coffee tour on our extra days.

The whole team made us feel so well cared for and turned our dream trip into reality. Highly recommend Meru Slopes to anyone looking for the safari experience of a lifetime!

Great experience - great guide.
5/5

Climbing Mount Meru was incredible from start to finish. The entire team worked so hard to make the trek safe, comfortable, and enjoyable. The porters deserve huge praise — they carried heavy loads with such skill and always greeted us with smiles and encouragement, which kept morale high on the tougher stretches of the trail.

That said, special recognition has to go to our main guide, Hussein. He was absolutely outstanding. Hussein combined deep knowledge of the mountain with genuine care for every member of the group. He set a perfect pace, checked on us constantly, and made sure we understood what to expect each day. His calm reassurance during the steep summit push gave us the confidence to keep going, and thanks to him, we all made it to the top safely.

Hussein also shared so much about the park’s wildlife, geology, and history, which turned the climb into more than just a physical challenge — it was a learning experience too. His professionalism and warmth really set this trek apart.

If you’re considering climbing Mount Meru, I couldn’t recommend this team enough. The porters are incredible, and with Hussein leading the way, you’ll be in the very best hands. Five stars without hesitation!

The Safari was one of the best things me and my friend have ever done. We learnt a lot about the animals, who life in the Parks. Also during our Safari we visited many different Parks, like serengeti. The driver was very friendly, like our contact Person from Meru slopes tours. It was Great to See als the big five and i Hope other people will enjoy the Tour as much as we did.

Unforgettable Safari with Meru Slopes! 🦁✨
5/5



From start to finish, our experience with Meru Slopes Safari was simply outstanding! 🌿🛻 Our friend connected us with Gift Tembo from Meru Slopes while we were still in India, and his communication was top-notch 📲—always prompt, clear, and super helpful.

Upon landing at Kilimanjaro Airport ✈️, we were warmly welcomed and whisked away to The African Tulip Hotel 🌺🏨, where the chef surprised us with our favourite Indian dishes 🍛—such a thoughtful touch that made us feel instantly at home ❤️.

The adventure began the next day at Serval Wildlife 🦓🦒 with our friendly guide Herman, who made the visit both fun and informative.

On Day 3, we met our incredible guide Jacob as we flew from Arusha to Serengeti 🐾. For the next three days, Jacob went above and beyond—ensuring we spotted the Big Five 🦁🐘🐆🦬🦏, patiently searching for the migration, and even helping us see the rare black rhino! Although we missed the dramatic river crossing, we witnessed huge herds migrating across the plains, countless lions with their prey 🦌, and enjoyed the magical hot air balloon ride 🎈—a once-in-a-lifetime moment!

Everything ran so smoothly that we never had to worry about a thing. 🌟 The lodges—African Tulip, Under the Shade, Arks, Seronera Wildlife Lodge, and Serengeti Safari Lodge—were all phenomenal, each offering comfort, charm, and beautiful surroundings 🏕️.

We truly couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience 💛 and would 100% recommend Meru Slopes Safari to all our friends and family. 🐾✨
