We took the 4-day custom safari tour and it was perfect! The lodges we stayed in and the catering was very good. We were able to see all the animals and take great pictures. Our guide Ombeni was incredible!
Best. Safari. Ever.

Amazing safari with the amazing guide willian’n
The Safari was amazing!!! We was in a couple and we did the 5 day safáris. William was our driver, and he was fantastic!!! Very nice and friendly!! He showed us all the big fives and other animals. He asked the animals that we wanted to see and did everything to show us. He explained a lot of things, knows about everything and every animals.

The lodges (acacia farm and Acacia seronere Camp) was amazing. Amazing rooms, facilities, staff and food. The Wi-Fi in both could work better.
I recommend Gosheni Safari!!

A private excursion through a great safari operator with a magnificent tour guide "William".
We had an unforgettable safari tour in Tanzania.
We have to say that everything was very well executed and communicated to us on arrival.
William was a very knowledgeable and professional guide, stayed with us at all times and ensured .
we were lucky to see all the Big 5 in their natural habitats and the migration of the wildebeest during the game drive,
also enjoyed visiting a few tribes and being welcomed by their inhabitants
staff at the Acacia Camp (Maria, Robert & Steven) were very welcoming and courteous, assuring all our needs were taken care of.
we appreciated the flexibility from Gosheni guide and management in adding an additional excursion to our plan at short notice.
the food and accommodation were top notch - fresh, clean environment despite being in the wilderness!

Amazing adventure with a fantastic tour guide
Travelled in a family of four and had a fantastic safari thanks to the people at Gosheni and especially our guide Ombeni. He immediately impressed us with his hospitality and warmth. He would always smile and wait for us even when we were late in the morning (which was almost every day haha). We were really impressed not only with his knowledge of the country's wildlife, but also with the fun and engaging way he delivers it. He would always find new interesting stories to tell us and the kids would always bombard him with questions. Finally, he worked tirelessly to show us more animals than we could ever hope to see! He would often spend more time on the road just so we could see a lion or a cheetah, which was really special. Overall, I could not possibly imagine having such a great experience without a guide like Ombeni!

Perfect safari with perfect guide
We (me, husband and 7 year-old son) have just come back from our wonderful two-week vacation in Tanzania, which we started with a 6-day private Safari through parks in Tanzania and ended with sunbathing in Zanzibar.
Due to the fact that we were traveling with our child, we spent a lot of time looking for the right company to go on Safari with - we probably read all the available reviews about companies, their guides, available accommodation, we exchanged a lot of e-mails - and finally we chose Gosheni Safaris whose offer seemed to be the best, and Peter - its owner, patiently and promptly responded to all our inquiries and made changes to the program as requested.
The choice turned out to be PERFECT - we have quite high expectations, but the way our Safari was organized far exceeded our expectations (which happened to us for the first time in our lives).
We visited Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, Ndutu, Serengeti, Tarangire. We also took a balloon flight over Ndutu. We stayed at the Marera Lodge, Acacia Migration Camp in Ndutu and Acacia Seronera Luxury Camp.
Everything was perfect but the best part of it was our guide - Ombeni - he was just AWESOME !! :) - smiling and full of energy, he picked us up on the first day from the airport, even though our plane was delayed by a few hours, and then was only better. We saw with him probably all possible animals (including big five): lions, cheetahs, hyenas, leopards, elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos, wildebeest, various antelopes, monkeys, jackals, foxes, snake, crocodile, turtle , wild pigs, all kinds of birds, rhinos, ostriches. All the animals were spotted by Ombeni with his eagle eye. He wanted us to have a perfect view of animals and gave us as much time as we wanted that we could enjoy the view. We had the impression that he was happy with us (even though he had already seen thousands of these animals;)) He has a big knowledge (he graduated from tourism) about wildlife and Tanzania. He took care of all of us at every step, it was not even necessary to say that we need something, because he watched us and he recognized what we needed - it was amazing :) We felt very cared for and safe. In addition, we were very comfortable with him - which was important, because we spent all days in the car together :) Ombeni is also a great driver - we felt very comfortable, everyone liked his fast driving when needed (especially my 7-year-old). It should be added that the car was almost new, extremely comfortable, with air condition. Ombeni took care of the car, it was always clean, even when we were driving on the biggest mud. We think that without Ombeni our Safari wouldn’t be so perfect - we didn’t know before that the guide is so important (if not the most important) - so it is worth choosing the best one (I recommend Ombeni with all my heart).
We should also mention that the food during Safari was delicious. Also all the accommodations were great, especially Acacia Migration Camp in Ndutu - where the service was professional and wonderful - the top hotel staff should learn from them!
About Safari itself - it is difficult to describe in words, beautiful breathtaking views, wonderful nature and animals - you have to experience it. I guess nothing beats this trip.
We highly recommend Safari with Gosheni Safaris and Ombeni as your guide.

Safari of our Dreams
You can book your safari with virtually any operator.
BUT if you want;
- Reliability
- Professional planning
- Trip customization to your expectations AND the season
- Excellent communication
- Selection of the best lodges
- Super tasty food and to not worry about water or other drinks
- Modern cars that can both endure the wilderness and provide maximum comfort
Then Gosheni Safaris shall be your choice. And our guide - Zadock.
He was not only taking us from point A to point B - he was truly caring for us, making sure that we are comfortable and that all our wishes are fulfilled. He knows the area like his home and brought us to totally unexpected places.
Zadock is also an excellent animal tracker. He was able to spot rare species in the distance, but also drove to the special sites so we could see them very close.
He is also a good chat partner so we have enjoyed the long trip also in this aspect.
Ask Peter from Gosheni Safaris to be guided by Zadock. You will have fun and enjoy your safari just as we did!

It was good experience
Everything was perfect. May be a little problem about covid test, could be done earlier to have results for sure. But still we got results earlier than everybody just in 36 hours

Awesome guide!
A girlfriend and I completed a 5 day luxury Safari with Ombeni as our tour guide. He was excellent! Highly highly recommend! Very knowledgable and helped us with our Swahili. My dream was to get pictures of cheetahs and he got us close (about 10-15 feet). He even let us stay longer to just admire them. We saw all the big cats, elephants, hippos, giraffes, various antelope/deer, crocs, monkeys/baboons, and various birds. We sang songs and went at our own pace. Lunches were excellent, you will not go hungry. We even drank during the day. You won’t regret a day with Ombeni!
