Perfectly planned safari with amazing guide and mindblowing lodges
In a nutshell: it was amazing!
We booked the safari from Germany (money transfer was smooth via wise) and were in contact with Peter.
We chose a 4 day safari including tarangire, serengeti and ngorongoro.
We were lucky to have William as our guide, he was super knowledgeable, is a very smooth driver and always went the extra mile. We saw all the big 5 and it was just mind-blowing. Accommodation was on point with amazing views as well.
Despite rainy season, the weather was great, not too hot and not too crowded.
I highly recommend Gosheni Safaris to everyone. Couldn’t have been more perfect.
Thank you very much & Asante sana!

William was very nice to us, took care of everything and it was important to him that he enjoyed himself. It was important to him that during our trips we get to see all the animals. He was very good and I highly highly recommend !!

An Excellent, Professional and Skilled Tour Guide
I just completed one of my bucket list wishes with one of the best of the best safari companies, Gosheni Safari. I have to break this into two separate parts because I want to acknowledge my safari experience and my Mount Kilimanjaro experience in this review.
I embarked upon a 5 day adventure with them and every aspect of the trip exceeded my expectations and then some. Our amazing guide OmBeni handled our experience with care and professionalism from start to finish.
OmBeni was always on time and anticipated our needs even before we did. He is a perfect example and representative of the Gosheni brand,
Our safari was what any person could dream of from comfortable and always clean vehicle, hot lunches, to having a guide who was respectful and had a skilled eye. We were able to see the Big Five and many more wonderful wildlife with no problem.
There was no language barrier at all because our guide spoke very good English which made all the difference for us. I am so glad we chose Gosheni Safari and plan on doing it again with the whole family soon.
Part Two
We decided to do a two day Mount Kilimanjaro trek. It was a adventure all on its own. The terrain and the beautiful sites of the forest was stunning. We had an amazing guide named Sam who took his time, Pol’e Pol’e with us and acknowledged right away what our strengths and weaknesses were and adjusted his pace so that we could get to the Mandara huts in a safe and comfortable manner. Sam was a blast to be around as well. We were able to joke and have fun the entire time. Sam and his crew of porters and the chef worked their magic while we were on that mountain. The chef did an amazing job and everything he made was delicious. The porters work extra hard and deserve so much more than they get. Mount Kilimanjaro was a fantastic experience I would love to reach the summit one day when we are in better shape and have the time to do all seven days. Thank you Sam and your crew for helping to create great memories for us. I would also like to give a big shout out to our driver James who was super safe and cautious with us the entire time from the airport pick up to the airport drop off. Sam and James were so professional they waited for us to check in at the airport and everything to be situated before they left the airport. That really and truly meant a lot to us. Thanks again to OmBeni, Sam, James, Benjamin(chef) and the porters for the best time in Tanzania. I cannot wait to return.
The team at the office are also exceptional. We had many date changes and Pendo was extremely accommodating and patient throughout it all. Margret at the office handled an issue we had with Precision Air and resolved that for us with the upmost importance.
I thank Gosheni staff for all the hard work and effort it took to make this one of the most memorable experiences of our lives.
Thank you so much! Asante sana.
We’ll see you again soon!

Best of best experience in Tanzania with Gosheni
Our tour last for eight days, visiting four National parks. Gosheni provided us the service totally out of expectation.
Before we came, our advisors give us very detailed and personalized plan, answering our concerns, which really helpful. ( btw, Gosheni has much better official website than other brands and that’s why I choose to advice them first)
After we arrived in Tanzania, the staffs took good care of us, enthusiastic and friendly. They will provide drinks and snacks on the road everyday.
Our guide, Ombeni , is the most gentle, knowledgeable and considera guide I have ever met. I was so impressed that he can answer all the questions about animals and Tanzania we said. He has eagle eyes. We got hundreds of good pictures of animals under his guide. He is also very good at making us happy. I remembered one time I got annoyed by my boyfriend, he found me a little bit unhappy and cheer me up by telling the fun facts of animals. He did really good job during this trip in every small things, like cleaning the car, taking good pictures and preparing picnic. It feels like you don’t need to worried about anything.Thank you Ombeni! Our good friend!
In all, Gosheni might be the best safaris group with high cost-value performance, friendly staffs and perfect tour plan.

Excellent
We did a two day one night safari Ngorongoro Reserve. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the animals and even though we were out of season managed to locate a pride of lions where we stopped and watched and filmed them for over half an hour. Elephants, hippo’s you name it we saw it.
We stayed in The Castle which is an oasis in the middle of nowhere. Great trip, great to learn about Tanzania and the wild life from a friendly professional guide. Picnics were very civilised even in the wild. Thanks

Amazing safari!
Did a 5 day 4 night safari with gosheni starting from Arusha.
Overall had an amazing experience. Excellent car, great communication before the trip, nice accommodations and, also important, for us an decent price for what we got.
We were lucky with Barik as guide. He has over 10 years of experience with being a safari guide and that really shows. He knows the ways trough the park, knows the right spots to find the animals, and explained us so many things during the drives (from different ecosystems to Masai history and culture, to ofcourse loads of information about the animals we spot or didn’t spot). Perfect guide!
We also got to know Barik more during the dinners and lunches with made us understand the Tanzanian culture and lifestyle a little bit.
Saw the big 5 (and so many other animals and vegetation).
Overall I can say that the company and their guides are professional, trustworthy, the cars and lodges are excellent, and it’s nice to deal with a local company.
