Excellent
We loved the safari experience and our driver/guide Ombeni went above and beyond, led us to beautiful animals and set up great lunch for us in the middle of national parks, taught us a lot of interesting facts about the animals and took great care of us. If we come back again, we would still choose Ombeni as our guide.

Great safari
Our guide Ombeni was excellent. He had an eagle eye to spot animals and he showed us all we wanted to see and more.
Great overall experience!

Safari experience of a lifetime
My husband and I had already done a safari in South Africa, so we had really high expectations for our honeymoon. We booked a 7 day safari trip in Tanzania with Gosheni and it went beyond our expectations.
Our guide Onbeni made sure that we had the best time, always taking care of everything so we could relax and enjoy our honeymoon in the best Hakuna Matata style. He drove us safely and made sure we were at the right spot at the right time. We saw everything we wanted to see and so much more!
He is impressively knowledgeable and we learned so much about Tanzania, the culture, the animals and nature. He also has impressive eagle eyes and spotted hidden animals from great distances.
This was a trip of a lifetime and I would definitely recommend Gosheni as the travel agency.
William our driver and tour guide was just a blessing funny and knowledgeable
This is one of the best experience I've had. The safari tour in the serengeti was surreal. William, our driver and guide went above and beyond to make the drive and spotting all the animals a great and unforgettable moment. I will definitely cherish these memories for a long time. Go for Gosheni and ask for William!!!!!
Easy to book, communicates well, amazing price for what is offered.
Gosheni Safaris is truly one of a kind and will come highly recommended to all my friends. Each day, our amazing guide, Ombeni, would tell us the plan for the day. He easily spots animals that blend with the bush.
Our first day in Serengeti, we saw the Big 5! He has been a guide for years so he communicates with other guides to give us the best chance of seeing every animal. The following day we literally drove through the Great Migration. He was patient when we wanted to take pictures or just take in the sights. Never did I feel rushed or on a timeline.
The lunches were all delicious. Each day we got a hot soup with an actual warm meal. Not a sandwich or a cold meal. We had wine and cold soft drinks available throughout the drive as well.
The accommodation choices we booked were each unique and truly one of a kind. Each place makes you feel like as if you are the only guest.
If you’re looking for an amazing safari where you are taken care of from your pick up to the drop off, do not hesitate to book with Gosheni. You won’t regret it!
Great safari company. Amazing Guide driver Ombeni. Free African massage daily. Comfortable vehicle.
I would definitely recommend Gosheni Safaris & Tour Guide Driver Ombeni. Peter was very helpful with our requests and booking was with ease. Our breifing was nice experience at headquarters. Definitely value for money. We booked the comfy package, which was much more, the camps were amazing. Ombeni was a fantastic driver. Reliable, Trustworthy, Friendly, Funny and Knowledgeable. Always early. Always putting our needs first. He had us right in the action every time. We were like a family from the beginning of the Safari.

Highly experienced and professional
This was an amazing trip provided by a high quality, professional tour company. Upon arrival in Arusha, we were brought to Gosheni’s headquarters. We received our Safari brief over coffee in a setting of lush, perfectly landscaped grounds. Off to our Safari. Ombeni was our guide. He’s an eagle eyed, seasoned guide with 15 years of experience navigating the parks of our Safari. With Ombeni as our guide, we saw all of the five big African game: elephants, lions, leopards, Buffalo, and even the black rhino. We were fed hot lunches every day, and were even served wine with lunch. I will always recommend this company to any of my friends looking to do a safari.

Amazing Safari Experience ! Asante to Bariki !!
I organized a 3 nights/4 days safari : ( Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro) with Gosheni for May 2022
The first point of contact at the time was Pendo, a sale agent. She has been incredible and gave an answer to all my questions despite my numerous questions and my back and forth, and helped with coming up with a final itinerary.
Even though my trip date was around the corner, Peter, the managing director accomodated me with a last mn change to my itinerary ( involving driver picking me up earlier than planned and even waiting for me for almost 2 hours). Peter also took the time, the day of the trip, to do a quick recap of all my stops, and that was appreciated.
But the best of the BEST goes to Bariki, my guide and driver ! From the moment he picked me up , he has been very welcoming and very professional. I have felt very secure, considering also that I was a solo female traveler.
Bariki is very fluent in english and have answered literally ALL my requests. He shared a lot of interesting knowledge on animals, on the Massai tribe and on Tanzania in general : he knew so much and had an answer to ALL the questions I could potentially have.
Although the drive was long between each national parks, he somehow made it feel shorter since he was such a nice company driver.Not to mention he teached me so many words in swahili during that trip and was a good photographer.
All and all, Bariki did make my safari trip "absolutely" memorable - so much that I almost felt sad when the 4 days safari came to an end.
I had the MOST amazing experience and 100% recommend this company to anyone coming to Tanzania or Kenya !
Not to mention, at the end of my safari, a random person in the park from another company, came to me, and told me I had made a good choice to travel with Gosheni as they recently obtained an award in 2021 for being one of the bests and a leading company among more than 200 safari companies in Tanzanian This comforted me even more in my choice
