I had two tours with Meru Slopes, 4-day lodge safari and kilimanjaro materuni waterfall in Feb 2021. Everything with this agency was excellent. The price was ok, there were a lot of inclusions, Mr Geofrey was extremely responsiveness to our 1000 questions we have had, the hotels in safari were extremely good, all their personnel extremely carrying, open, and pleasant. Special thanks to Asantaeli, Godfrey, Nuru, Prica and Emanuel. Excellent team. The programs are well crafted and the organisation is perfect. I recommend this agency with full confidence. Thank you Meru Slopes.

Fantastic safari With Meru Slope Me and my fiancé visited Africa few days ago and Meru Slope Tours and Safaris gave us a safari to remember in Tanzania. I don't really know if this is how they treat everyone or it was just us but we felt like everyone went out of their way to make this safari greatest ever. We arrived in Arusha late afternoon and our guide was there at the airport to pick us up. We drove to the lodge for an amazing late lunch that was followed up by a wonderful city tour. Later in the evening we went back to the lodge and waited for our big safari day. The guide picked us up and off we went to the Tarangire park. Great park with lots of elephants and giraffes. We saw everything we could possibly see in the park and went to the lodge. The next day we headed to the Ngorongoro. What a park. Tiny, beautiful evergreen, they called it a biggest caldera but I call it a magical park. What else could you want to see on safari than the big five? All of them with the aid of guide who is an amazing spotter by the way. He showed us all we needed. Just when we thought we've seen it all, Serengeti was there. I've been watching this adventure in National geographic since was a kid but finally everything I ever imagined was right before my eyes. What a spectacle. This endless plain is real and wonderful. We enjoyed every moment stayed in this beautiful country.
