Safari Adventure of a Lifetime - Big Thanks to Inno and Norah
We have just returned from a 2 week holiday of a lifetime. We had 6 days of Safari followed by a week of relaxation in Zanzibar. My husband arranged the trip with Norah. For him this was a 'bucket list' trip and it more than lived up to his expectations. We are a family of 5 with 3 kids aged 16-21. My husband requested a luxury experience and this is exactly what we had. The hotels we stayed at were at times totally breathtaking with amazing service and an experience in of themselves.
Our safari guide was Inno who was absolutely amazing (so much so that we renamed him 'Inno the Tanzanian Safari Maestro'). His experience shone through and we trusted him explicitly to deliver the experience we were hoping for and which he delivered on every level. Every question we asked him was knowledgeably answered. How he knows his way around the various parks is beyond me! We were lucky enough to see the Wilderbeest migration which was an absolute highlight. Every safari is different so my listing everything we saw (or didn't see) is a little irrelevant but suffice to say we saw some amazing wildlife and it really had all the elements of a trip of a lifetime which we will never forget.
Everything was superbly organised by Norah. All our transfers and tours outside of the safari were on time and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Gosheni. A 5 star holiday all round. Thank you so much.

Professional, breathtaking experience
We just finished a fantastic 8 day safari in Tanzania with Bariki as our guide. We traveled with our family of 6. None of us has been to Africa before, and we didn’t know what to expect. Bariki made the entire experience fun and fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable about the national parks and was amazing at spotting animals. His expert driving got us as close as possible to the animals and to the wildebeest crossing the Mara River. We liked how we discussed plans each evening to make sure timing and expectations worked for each day. We could not have enjoyed this trip more, we learned so much at dinner about Tanzania through friendly conversations, too. I highly recommend Bariki as a guide to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, and Arusha.

Tanzanian Operator with Excellent Guides
Went with Gosheni in August 2025 in Tanzania including Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti (Central/North)
- Hassan was our driver/guide and was excellent. Would give him a 5/5. He had over decades of experience and it showed with his expert knowledge in all facets during the safari. He instantly was able to identify all manners of wildlife including many types of birds. He also was well respected and popular amongst all the other guides with him frequently being called upon for advice.
- We were able to see what we wanted to see including a river crossing during the Great Migration, which we were lucky to witness.
- Safari vehicle itself appeared to be well maintained and overall quite new. We did not have any breakdowns compared to some other vehicles we saw and tires had great treads when put side to side with other vehicles.
- An area of improvement would be the communication with the main office (William) as they did not promptly respond to emails after payment, which left a sour taste and has made it overall a 4/5 instead of a 5/5. It was also unclear sometimes if the changes we wanted to our itinerary was included at all and some parts in the end were never actioned.

Ask for Hassan for your guide!!
Spent 11 days in Tanzania with our guide Hassan. He was very knowledgeable in the countries history, animal facts, and even vegetation in the national parks. He took us to Arusha, Ngorongoro Crater, Olduvai Valley, central Serengeti and Northern Serengeti. He ensured that my partner and I saw the big five and most importantly the great migration. He made the trip fantastic and memorable with his tips and tricks and being a great conversationalist as we waited for animals to show up or cross the river for the migration.

Amazing trip in the safari! Recommend
We went on a safari trip in Tanzania with Lazaro and it was amazing! Lazaro was extremely professional and caring, he found all the special animals for us and was always attentive, giving us interesting explanations about the wildlife along the way. He took care of everything to make sure we were always comfortable. We highly recommend him! And the company!

We saw big fives, river crossing and more
Our safari experience with Gosheni was amazing. Trucks are in great conditions, and the big guide team & information sharing during animal finding is just impressive. We were lucky to have Samir as our guide this time. Samir knows animals really well. He is a great finder, and can often find great angles for photos. We enjoyed looking for animals with Samir, and managed to see and capture moments like jumping leopard, hunting cheetahs, mating lions & river crossing during golden hours. Samir works really hard to accommodate our wishes - we are crazy guys so that means we usually leave around 6-6.30am and get back to hotel 6.30-7pm almost every day. He is also a great driver which is of great importance given the complicated and challenging road conditions.
Safari is addictive and we are already planning our next one. We look to come back to central serengeti and explore southern serengeti with Gosheni & Samir.

Wildlife expert
We just finished our 9day Safari trip with Gosheni across Amboseli in Kenya and Ngorongoro & Serengeti in Tanzania, and it was fantastic!
Our sales representative, Norah, put together a highly bespoke itinerary for us, and worked with us patiently regarding all the back-and-forths and moving parts. With Zahid, our tour guide for our 3-day Amboseli trip in Kenya, we were able to see every corner of the park, and managed to get amazing pictures of elephants under Mt Kilimanjaro that we dreamed of. Our tour guide on Tanzania side, Samir, took our experience to the next level in our 7day trip across Ngorongoro, Central & Northern Serengeti. Samir is an animal expert who knows when and where to look, and he guided us to see all Big Fives and capture some big cats' amazing moments. Samir understands our particular needs, and puts in a lot of efforts to accommodate them. We have built a nice trust in Smair's judgement during the trip and know we are taken great care of.
