Good Budget Safari
4/5

Communication with company was very good prior to safari. They were quickly responsive to any question that we had. Upon arrival, pick-up at the airport was smooth and tour group was able to arrange for in-town transportation for us as we had a full day in Arusha before the start of our safari. The driver was professional and Footslopes arranged for a good price.

Footslopes walked us to an ATM machine and helped us pick out SIM cards and then properly load them on our phones. This was really appreciated.

The safari vehicle was nice and comfortable with a pop-top to be able to take good pictures of the animals.

The wildlife and bird watching was excellent in all of the parks we visited. Our guide was quite knowledgeable about animals and birds.

This is a budget safari and if you're not as worried about dining selections and hot water and more worried about animals and birding, then this is the safari for you.

We do recommend this tour but with the knowledge that it is a budget/value option.

Great service, affordable prices!
5/5

From the very beginning the communication via email was excellent. Almost every time i sent a message to Foot Slopes I received a reply the same day. They took care of everything, starting from picking up from the shuttle bus, arranging a comfortable accommodation in a hotel, organizing the professional staff for both Kilimanjaro trekking and safari trip, everything was exactly as agreed and discussed prior to our arrival to Africa. I can definitely recommend their services to anyone who likes to deal with solid and professional companies.

The driver (Thomas:the best driver i know!)was professional and Footslopes arranged for a good price. I visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara..and i saw the big five.The safari vehicle was nice and comfortable with a pop-top to be able to take good pictures of the animals. This is a budget safari and I slept in a tent in the open fields.The chef was very good and served us some very good things to eat.

Good value for price
5/5

The company has provided us with a nice safari experience. During the booking the communcation was fast and they provided feedback on a down payment (which we chose to do so we don't have to get a crazy amount of money from the ATM in Tanzania) on their own initiative. Due to the proper communication I already felt the company is trustworthy. The stay in Arusha, included before and after the safari, was properly arranged and went without problems. During the safari we had an excellent driver, Mr. David, who kept the vibe up. He has interesting stories and is nice to talk with. Mr. Philip, who was our chef (or as they call it, the stomach doctor), prepared tastefull food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Portions were also of good size! All in all, our safari with Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris has been an amazing experience.

An extraordinary wildlife experience
5/5

What an extraordinary experience. My friend and I joined a 5-day safari visiting Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara and Tarangire national park. The communication beforehand was timely and adequate. The trip was well organized and thus transpired smoothly. Our Safari experience was especially succesful due to the amazing guiding and driving by Mr. David, and the delicious cooking by Mr. Philip. David is an experienced safari guide and can thus provide ample information and interesting stories of previous safaris. Philip made sure we always had tasty, wholesome food which was a true blessing after a long day of game drives. The flora and fauna of the parks was astonishingly beautiful, yet the safari would not have been the same without David and Philip. Asante sana kaka!!

What a great experience!
5/5

I chose Foot Slopes Tours and Safaris mainly based on the reviews I read online combined with my price level and time schedule. I don't in the least regret it! My two sons and I had a marvelous time on the 5 day Safari we enjoyed with them, with Frederick, our guide and driver, and Action, our cook, who kept us fully fed. We were greeted at the Riverside Bus Station in Arusha in the evening after our six hour trip from the Nairobi airport, taken to a very decent tourist hotel for the night, and met everyone in the morning when we started on our 5 day adventure. Frederick was wonderful and handled those very daunting roads with aplomb, filled us in on everything we needed to know, and was a fun guy to be around. We toured Tarangire, the Serengeti, the Ngorodoro Crater, and Lake Manyara (some of my spellings might be wrong), and saw everything possible (except the Rhino, as Frederick warned us we probably wouldn't). They also included an evening of cultural activities where we toured a woodcarving village and met incredibly talented painters, and were introduced to Banana wine and beer. I will add one caveat: we chose the budget Safari (Camping - but only had one real night of camping for which I was grateful), so don't expect western level accomodations. Also be sure to bring with you spare toilet paper (always keep a roll on your person), and hand sanitizer or wipes (but that applies to most places in Africa!). I highly recommend this tour company; they stayed in touch from the very beginning of my inquiries and through the entire time there. They were all just great! Thank you, guys!
