perfect guide for amazing safari.
5/5

We booked for Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngongorongo. Because of the season the operator changed Lake Manyara for Tangarire. Accommodation was perfect, good tents, good camps. Guide Gidion was an nice guy and knew everything about the animals and birds.

Best Quality-price! Amazing experience, they treated us like family, make our trip really special
5/5

We are a couple, in our early 30's from Spain but living in Ireland for the last 6 years, we like to travel a lot and we decided to do a safari in Tanzania for 5 days this summer , the safari included 4 National Parks ;Tarangire , Ngoromgoro , Serengeti and Manyara. Initially was hard for us to trust Meru Slopes coz we could not find any references about it apart from the ones in Safari booking . So we started Our own research to find out more about them , their website , their manager , the hotels they work with , their staff , their company number , if they were TATO members ... Etc. Since the very first moment the communication with the manager of the company "Geofrey" , was excellent , and the feedback we got from our private research worked out well, so we exchanged few emails with them and then Geofrey added me on Whatssap so I could ask him any questions ,any time . I requested all sort of info since I wanted to be 100% I could trust them ,Not just with my money but also with our holidays , and once again the proved themselves as a serious company and helped me out with everything, also arranged transportation , accommodation and other activities .
The Great advantage of Meru Slopes is that they are local , and also smaller in size. When comparing Meru with the bigger European/ American companies , we noticed a big difference in price , also the bigger companies were not so approachable , and definitely less flexible to adapt to our needs and budget . Normally all these big companies rarely adapt to your needs unless you go "luxury" or high end .Meru was really flexible , and could adapt to our needs and demands for a reasonable price. They arranged everything for us ( transportation , accommodation , trekking to Kili and other activities apart from the safari ) and also treated us like family , they really made us feel special, always trying to please us and make our staying better and enjoyable . The hotel they recommended to us was in Arusha ( Arusha tourist inn hotel ) was very clean ,with nice views and good service . The hotel is very functional , nothing luxurious about it , but it had everything we needed , including a restaurant with good prices and nice food . Everything in the hotel worked well and was perfectly clean .
The Safari was also amazing, our guide Marco ,had a lot of experience and was the best driver ever . We got to see all the animals, absolutely ALL, ,with the exception of the Rhino , that We only saw from far away ( they are nearly extint amd are very hard to see these days ). Any way, all the parks were absolutely stunning , but our favourites were Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We spent 2 night sleeping in tent and two night in a lodge . We wanted to experience the real adventure In these two magical places and it was really worth it . In the end everything worked out well, we enjoyed tipping everybody , eventhough is mandatory, we actually felt like tipping any ways coz they all were super nice to us . The last day of out trip , they guys had a lovely present for us , and we cannot thank them enough for it , coz they really made our week with them unforgettable . We Highly recommend to go with Meru Slopes tours and safaris .

Great Safari Experience
5/5

Communication with Geoffrey was great - he responded very quickly to emails and clarified everything before we arrived. We were met at the airport by a friendly driver which was very helpful!
The safari itself was an amazing experience - we were looked after at every point and our driver was very informative. We will definitely be recommending this operator to our friends and families!

Tarangeri and Ngorongoro crater
5/5

I dont usually write reviews but will take an exception for Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris . The guide and driver very friendly and knowledgeable about natural sciences and gave good information to the non knowledgeable. Also the accommodation for multiple days worked very well for me. So in a few words I want to recommend fully and honestly for a chance to check a wish from your bucket list :)

Extremely satisfied
5/5

Meru Slopes is a very reliable and local agency that made my safari an amazing experience. Their customer relationship is very professional and they really delivered everything I asked for (and expected) and even more. Geofrey is a great guy and he really makes an effort to make your holiday as enjoyable as possible. Would definitely recommend Meru Slopes to every traveller who has safari on their itinerary :)

Fantastic experience and we saw the big 5!
5/5

We knew we wanted to go on a 4 day safari and see Lake Manyara, the Serengeti and Ngorgoru crater but there are so many tour companies to choose from! Meru slopes had been recommended to us by a friend. Geoffrey replied to my enquiry within a couple of hours and after getting a few quotes from other companies, decided to go with him. He would always reply very quickly to answer our questions. Meru slopes was the cheapest quote we got but they also offer accommodation in a pleasant hotel in Arusha the day before and after the safari, with breakfast included. The tour itself was great. There was a change of driver on the first day, which meant an earlier start but breakfast was provided and we saw lots of wildlife around Lake Manyara. On the second day we joined a different group and Simon was our guide for the remaining three days. The tents were basic but what we expected and sleeping in the Serengeti and on the side of the crater was a unique experience! The days were long but we got to see the big 5 as well as plenty of other animals. Simon was knowledgable and had good communication with other guides so we knew where to go to spot the best game. Baracko came with us and was the cook and his food was delicious! We really enjoyed the trip and highly recommend it to others.

Excellent mountain trekking and Safari
5/5

Both, the mount meru trekking and the four day safari were excellent. Great guides, good organization, catch up from the airport, hotel stay before, between the two different tours and afterwards. Absolutely to recommend.
