Amazing Experience & First Class Service!
I just returned from Gosheni Safaris’ 11 Day Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari – it was the trip of a life time. Gosheni Safaris provided a 5 star level of service! From the start, Gosheni Safaris was wonderful to deal with. We worked with Peter, the owner of the company who was always responsive and patient with all our questions. He truly knows his business and put together an excellent itinerary that covered all we wanted to see and recommended lodges that were above and beyond our expectations. Peter was also flexible to include some additional asks – 1) a visit to the Happy Family Children’s Village (orphanage and school) in order for us to bring the clothing and toys we had collected and 2) arranged for us to meet another Gosheni tour group by putting together a Gosheni Tours lunch at the Ngorongoro Crater. Gosheni Safaris provided a few extra touches not found with other tour companies – wine and snacks set up on a table awaiting us when we arrived at the airport in Arusha; daily lunches set up using china and real silverware; WIFI in the jeep.
We had an extraordinary guide, Zadock – he took care of everything. He is extremely knowledgeable about the animals and birds; a very experienced tour guide and an excellent driver (it was amazing how he knew his way around all the roads – even in the dark!). I referred to Zadock as the “mayor of the Serengeti” – he knew all the other guides driving by us! Zadock is a sensitive and caring person and extremely customer focused. He always wanted to make sure we were happy, found ways to fit in all our asks, would go out of his way for us (and anyone – he even stopped to help another guide with a tire issue; and provided instructions to another guide on how to find their way to a particular lodge) and made sure we had the best views of the animals! Zadock was the foundation for our amazing experience.
I would highly recommend Gosheni Safaris and would book with them again.

Excellent experience with William
It is a very excellent safari with William, he is very experienced, let us see the leopard, cheetah, elephant and other animals we want to see. He is also a good photographer, chose the best place for us to take photos. We all love him so much.
And the car is in very good condition, hotel is very clean and convenient, staffs is very nice and the food in Africa is beyond my imagination.
Thank Gosheni very much for the unforgettable experience.

A excellent safari
The company attaches great importance to the feelings of the guests, which is very good. It is very convenient for Chinese sales agents to communicate in advance. The lunch box with hot rice and hot dishes is very suitable for Chinese stomachs. Our director William was very good this time. He had good driving skills and took good care of us along the way. Even when we had a picnic outside, we were very ritualized and took pictures, leaving us many wonderful moments.

Exceeded Expectations
Last year my wife and I, having visited many wildlife parks Botswana, Namibia and South Africa, decided to focus on Tanzania. We wanted a custom private tour. First step was to find a tour operator. We decided to focus on Tanzanian companies using Google search. There are many, and we eventually settled on Gosheni Safaris Africa. My first adjudication filter was response time to my inquiry and secondly completeness of the quotation. Next was to call the top three; the deciding factor was that Galdys at Gosheni understood my needs the best, was very flexible yet candid enough to discourage certain destinations in my "laundry' list.
The tour itself was amazing thanks largely to our guide Hassan. One way or another he found not only leopards in trees but lions with their cubs. Cheetahs and lions feeding, black rhino and an amazing array of birds both large and small. Another highlight was seeing wildebbest in various stages of giving birth in the great migration. His was forever on his CB radio exchanging information. Gosheni vehicles are equipped not only with an inverter which allowed us to charge electronic devices but also with a Wifi antenna allowing us to go online in the bush: two big pluses. Hassan is a great spotter, an accomplished SUV driver and very knowledgeable about Serengeti's flora and fauna. All in all a wonderful experience thanks to a good team.

Wonderful 9-day safari in Tanzania
We did a 9-day safari as a couple and visited Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Manyara. We had a wonderful, relaxed and really amazing time with Ombeni, our guide, and with the company Gosheni that organised everything very well and smoothly. The lodges and tented camps were great. Most importantly, our guide Ombeni was extremely nice, very professional and experienced. We saw so many different aminals, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, he knew all the places where to go. We also were very impressed by the wonderful landscape, he explained many details to us plus he solved our minor problems within minutes. We really had a great time together. We can only recommend him and Gosheni!

Trip of a lifetime, well organized and a top class driver/guide
It is difficult to find the words to express how much we enjoyed our custom made 9 day tour through Gosheni to Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Manyara. I referred to our driver/guide, Hassan, as our walking/driving encyclopedia. He was extremely well informed and made everything even more interesting. We learned so much in the process. He went above and beyond to satisfy our needs, from my husband’s interest in photography to dealing with family issues we had and having to find WiFi. He was an extremely responsible driver too traversing the unbelievably bad roads. He was very good at finding out just where to go by communicating with the other drivers, and as a result of that and his knowledge of what to look for, we saw the most incredible sightings, from lions and leopards in trees, mating of lions, birth of wildebeest in the middle of migrations, one of the most amazing experiences, and so many colorful birds both large and small. I cannot speak highly enough of him. Gladys and Jessica in the office added to the magic of this safari by making sure our anniversary and my birthday were celebrated, not just at one of the lodges, but all of them!!! It was truly a trip of a lifetime.

Amazing safari. Ombeni was a skilled driver with much humour and knowledge. Lodges outstanding.
Perfect. We saw wild animals in abundant numbers in an overwhelming landscape. The lodges were great, service, view over the wide serengeti with sunset under an acacia, wonderful dinner, the chef cuisine did an incredible job out there in the middle of nowhere. Our driver-guide Ombeni was skilled, with a great sense of humour and he knew everything. Asante sana.
