A marvelous safari trip with Meru Slopes Tours.
A marvelous 9 days safari we did from August 29 to September 7, 2025. Lots of wild animals and sceneries were impressive. The journey plan and accommodations were satisfied. The manager of our tour team, Almachius Audax, was a very responsive and helpful person. He helped us to arrange a last day’s city tour in our free time before we left the city. The driver and guide of our car, Muddy, should be specially mentioned due to his professional manner, kindness and experience in this field. His enthusiasm for his job moved us.

Fantastic Safari
We had an unforgettable experience in Tanzania, visiting the Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti National Park, and the Ngorongoro Crater. From day one, we were impressed by the excellent organization: everything was taken care of down to the smallest detail, allowing us to fully enjoy the trip without a care in the world.
Sleeping in tented camps surrounded by nature was exciting and evocative, allowing us to experience the authentic safari atmosphere. Our chef, Goudi, was always there to accompany us, surprising us every day with delicious and meticulously prepared dishes.
Our driver, Abraham, proved to be extremely experienced, kind, and always available to accommodate our requests. Thanks to his knowledge and attention, we were able to spot countless animals up close and experience the safari in complete safety.
A wonderful experience, one we will cherish forever and one we recommend without hesitation to anyone dreaming of an authentic safari in Tanzania.

Unforgettable experience
An unforgettable experience!
We relied on Meru Slopes Tours for our 6-day safari through the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire, and Lake Manyara. Everything was coordinated perfectly, and we thank Almachius for his patience and helpfulness, always responding promptly.
Thanks to our guide Abraham and our chef Buga, the safari even exceeded our expectations. Ask for them if possible!
We recommend spending at least 1 or 2 nights in a tent in the Serengeti so you can truly experience the nature that surrounds you—something indescribable.
A memorable experience that we will cherish for a lifetime. Thank you!

Greatest adventure of our life
We had an absolutely amazing Safari experience with Meru Slopes. Our guide Joel helped us spot all the big 5 and many more. He was so friendly and was always listening to our wishes. Our chef Rashiki was cooking the most delicious local dishes.
We extended our trip by an extra day to the Materuni waterfalls and hot springs and had a blast with our guide Victor.
Everything was so we'll organized that we could just lean back and enjoy. Thank you Meru Slopes!

8 Day Mid-Range Serengeti Safari
Lubulu was our driver and guide for our 6 day safari into the Serengeti. His heritage is Maasai, so who could be better, to guide us through the area and share his knowledge. He was excellent throughout, spotting wildlife and sharing information about their behaviours. We couldn’t have asked for more.
Our first safari was to Tarangire National Park. We spotted elephants, lion, zebra, and giraffe as well as several bird species. If this was just the first day we were in for a real treat. On the second day we saw a cheetah and her cub. My partner and I had waited 23 years since our first safari to see cheetah, what a thrill. We saw the big 5, ugly 5, and more.
The highlight was the wildebeest migration at the river crossing, a real spectacle, and nothing really prepares you for this event. We sat for over three hours just watching the wildebeest cross the river. The wildebeest just kept coming and coming, you could see them for miles in the distance. It was overwhelming to see the sheer numbers and watching the vultures waiting for one of them to slip up.
Lubulu didn’t take us to the Maasai villages, he said his focus was on the animals. We did stop at a couple of craft markets, just to take a short break with the option of shopping. I thought the second one was the best.
Lubulu looked after us really well. Thank you so much, and whenever I hear the lyrics of Toto Africa it will transport me back to those spectacular moments in Tanzania.

Amazing 11 Day Africa Safari Experience with Meru Slopes
We had the most incredible and unforgettable Safari experience in Tanzania with Meru Slopes from 8/28-9/7. This wonderful 11 day trip exceeded our expectations in every way. We are extremely satisfied and grateful for the service and care provided by the entire Meru Slopes team. The food was great, the accomodation was clean and comfortable, and the game drive was exciting, and the overall itenary was well planned. This was not easy for our large group that needed 10 Safari vehicles.
Our driver and guide Samwil went above and beyond to make our trip amazing and trouble free. He was so friendly and accommodated all our needs without hesitation, often sacrificed his own time. In Lake Natron we were separated from other people from our vehicle by moving to another camp, and he had to come to two places to pick us up. As the result, he spent more than 1 hr round trip on the road, compared to other drivers in our group. And he did it happily. Every day, he cleaned our vehicle and picked up our personal belongings that we left behind. He drove carefully and checked our vehicle frequently to ensure it was problem free. With his guidance and help, we achieved all of goals of this trip and much more!
If you are looking for an Africa safari adventure filled with breathtaking views, excellent service, unforgettable memories, and unbeatable price, Meru Slope and Samwil is the perfect choice! Highly recommended.

An incredible feeling
We've just finished a 5-day safari in Tanzania, and the experience was simply extraordinary. We chose a camping package, which made the adventure even more authentic and immersive. Sleeping under the stars and falling asleep to the sounds of the savanna is an indescribable feeling.
Our adventure was made perfect by our guide, Joel, who showed incredible professionalism and knowledge of the area. He was able to spot the most elusive animals, allowing us to see all of the Big Five: majestic lions, leopards, impressive elephants, rare rhinos, and buffalo. But the most thrilling moment was witnessing the Great Migration of the wildebeest, a spectacle of nature that left us breathless. In addition to his skill, his helpfulness and courtesy made every moment of the safari a real pleasure.
A special thank you also goes to our fantastic cook who, even in the middle of the savanna, managed to create delicious meals.
I'd also like to thank Shadrack, who organized the safari from start to finish flawlessly. He always answered all my questions and was extremely helpful from the moment we set foot in Tanzania until the end of the safari.
I can't recommend Meru Slopes enough. Hakuna matata!

Experience of a lifetime!
We enjoyed immensely our 6-day private mid-range Safari to Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro that we booked through Meru Slopes. From start to finish the experience was flawless. Jerome was the sales rep that provided great customer service and answered all my pre-trip questions in a timely manner. Our driver / guide was Frank who went out of our way to make sure we were well taken care of and happy throughout the trip. He had a keen eye to spot wildlife which was most important to us. He was persistent in making sure we saw as much as possible considering it is always unpredictable what you might find on any given day but that was part of the excitement. The Toyota Land cruisers are fun and we enjoyed looking out the open roof area to see what we could spot. We were well fed the entire trip (too much food) especially since with the exception of one day on the go we had hot lunches. We enjoyed all the lodges and the amenities considering some are in the middle of nowhere - they were all clean with excellent buffet breakfasts and dinners. One was particularly upscale and the others were all glamping style, comfortable, private, with electricity and hot water. All-in-all would highly recommend Meru Slopes. Jerome and Frank made the trip memorable and special, a definite bucket-list item. Our guide was knowledgeable and very personable - perhaps, he could have volunteered a bit more information about the history, animal behavior, culture but when we asked he had answers. We preferred anyway to soak in the experience vs. info overload.

We had a fantastic experience on the safari tour.
Our guide Frank was great. He way always on time, very reliable. He knew the right spots to spot the animals. He was very patient, as my husband loves to take many pictures and videos. We got to watch cheetahs on a hunt. We saw lions mating. We watched hyenas following prides of lions after a hunt. There are too many animals to list every one.
Frank knew names of every bird.
Frank organized hot lunches every day. The lodging exceeded our expectations every night. Buffet style breakfasts and dinners were excellent every day. Meru -Slopes was very easy to communicate with. They respond very quickly. The entire safari ran very smoothly. Overall a wonderful experience.
