Amazing travel guide William Augustino
We spent an amazing 12 day cycling, camping and safari tour through Gosheni travel company with our guide William Augustino. William is highly experienced and very professional, and arranged our itinerary to perfection. The Serengeti game tour was amazing and we saw everything we expected! I highly recommend William for any experience in Tanzania as 5 years ago we also summited Kilimanjaro with him !

Very well organized trek and safari
We were traveling in Tanzania on a trip that was well organized and acceptionally fun. The tour guide William Augustin is knowledgeable and professional. The fantastic experience we had is mainly due to his friendly and caring guidance. He is really a veteran expert in trekking and safari in east Africa.

The trip was fabulous, well planned by the guide William who was us throughout the journey. The price was fair, all inclusive: accommodation, food, and entrance to all the site

Experience of a Lifetime!
My husband and I researched various safari companies and Gosheni came out on top because they had options in different price ranges, services that other companies didn't offer and is locally owned. I am so glad we went with Gosheni! We had a wonderful experience from our first contact through the end of the safari. Staff responded quickly to our questions during the planning process. We ran into a problem with our visa for Tanzania and the company owner, Peter resolved it for us so we didn't have any delays entering Tanzania. We also arranged 3 days in Zanzibar following the safari and Gosheni also took care of those logistics.
Albert was our safari guide over four days and he was excellent. He was friendly, responsive and extremely knowledgeable about the animals and the area. We started in the Ngorongoro Crater and made our way through the south, central and northern Serengeti. Albert made sure we got good views of the animals, lots of incredible pictures and ensured all our requests were met. This was a once in a lifetime experience and I highly recommend planning your safari with Gosheni and Albert as your guide. Top notch service and you can really tell they put the client first.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST CHOICE!!
Booking with Gosheni Safaris was the absolute best choice my sister and I made for our Kenya and Tanzania 7-day safari! We were looking for a black-owned tour operator and Gosheni could not have been any more perfect! From the beginning when we reached out to Peter, the owner, to our last hours in Kenya, every comfort and detail was taken care of. We were able to customize our private safari with Peter, who was super patient as we figured it out. The first day of our safari, Lenny, our first guide, picked us up at our Nairobi hotel and whisked us off to start our incredible adventure. He was knowledgeable, friendly and provided some of our first sightings as we made our way to Amboseli National Park. It doesn’t seem possible that we only spent a day and a half with Lenny because we had such a wonderful time.
Then we were off to Arusha, Tanzania to fly out to Serengeti National Park, where we met Rodrick our next guide, who accompanied us for two and a half days. The Serengeti was amazing thanks to Rodrick’s endless search for what we wanted to see, which was EVERYTHING! We saw the great migration, a crossing, four of the big five and a lot more. He was the first to spot the crossing and was able to get us there first to witness it. He answered all our questions and commented as we went along. We learned so much and enjoyed our time with Rodrick a lot!
Next came Maasai Mara with Ali, our last guide, who went above and beyond with us and made our stay in the reserve AMAZING! From the moment we met Ali at the Kenyan border, we knew we were in for a good time. Ali’s easy-going way, his sense of humor, knowledge and eagerness to show us all there was to see made this part of our tour INCREDIBLE. We feel like we made a lifelong friend in Ali! What an amazing guide and human being! And he completed our big five by finding a black rhino!
When we realized we were going to have multiple guides, we weren't sure how it would be. But it turned out to be great to experience different styles of safaris from the easy-going, natural drive to the more adventurous fast-paced drive. Overall our experience with Gosheni Safaris was everything we wanted and expected and way more! We would recommend this tour operator to everyone! ASANTE SANA Gosheni!
Great Company, Great Safari!!
We had a great experience with Gosheni! They’re professionals, reliable and well organised. Our guide Albert was always smiling and very kind, we had a good time with him. He could find so many animals, that was incredible!
Acacia Camps are like living a dream. Don’t hesitate to choose Gosheni.

Competent, experienced & very friendly
We had the pleasure to spend 5 days (in Ngorongoro & Serengeti) organized by Gosheni with our guide Erasto. Everything worked perfectly well and as planned.
Erasto is an amazing and very experienced guide. He knows his country, the roads and all the animals. We felt extremely well taken care of, received an answer to all our questions and had a lot of fun.
Can only recommend Gosheni!

Magnificent trip to Ngorongoro and Serengeti
We had a wonderful 6 days/5 nights trip with Gosheni from Arusha to Ngorongoro and the Serengeti. We were picked up by our lovely guide Erasto from our Arusha hotel and had a quick stop at the Gosheni office to finalize admin and get a briefing. Then we were off to Ngorongoro.
Erasto was a fabulous guide - friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable about anything we wanted to know about nature and history throughout our trip.
We spotted so many lovely animals, including the rarer ones like cheetahs and rhinos. Well, Erasto spotted them as he has that skill to spot really everything.
Everything worked according to plan and was thought through and we can highly recommend Erasto as a guide and Gosheni is a tour operator!

ONCE in a life time - absolutely faboulus
They promised one in a lifetime experience and we received once in a lifetime experience. Before getting in to deatails we want to Thank our guide Ombeni. Whenever you have the chance to book a tour in english ask for Ombeni.
From the first day he made us feel comfortable and welcome. After fantastic days in Tarangire ans Lake Manyara nationalpark we arrived to Serengeti. We enjoyed the knowledge of Ombeni and his patience while we were observing animals (pole pole = slowly slowly). As well as in the other parks Ombeni had eagle eyes and spotted lions or leopards even several hundred meters away.
Accommodations were fabulous. Starting from interior and especially highlighting the exceptional friendliness and service of every staff member.
During our trip we also met other gosheni guides for e.g. Eno who also speaks german, and all of them were amazing.
Whenever your looking for an reliable, well organised, welcoming and committed tour operator choose gosheni.
Many thanks to Ombeni, Peter and the rest of the team.
