Reliable, professional, best staff 100%
We just successfully reach the summit of Africa yesterday with Gosheni safaris and 15 members of an amazing team lead by Omary our main guide to reach the summit. Omary is an highly skilled guide that reached the summit for the 363 times yesterday. We felt that he truely care for our safety, he was knowledgeable about everything related to the mountain and Tanzania, he is also a devoted father of 2 and pretty much the father of most porter and lot of guide with less experience on the mountain. He truely love his job. Sam,our assistant guide on the trip was also an important part of our success with his contagious energy and help at all time. Sam is in fact a licence guide so we felt lucky to have 2 amazing guides with us. Our cook Thom was also great listening to comment about the food and adapting to our sometime modified taste because of altitude gain. We add the chance to have Kassim with us that played a central role in our confort. He was listening to us and provided anything possible to make our summit possible. He event climbed to the summit with us as a third member of the team to reach the top with us. Kassim is 24, the world belong to this amazing men and we are happy he keeps studying at the guiding school. Gosheni was more high end then other agency. For exemple, in all our acclimatisation hike, Kassim for carrying a table with 2 chairs and food and beverage. We felt vip and customer from other agency eating a basic snack on a rock look at us with envy. We had the perfect time reaching the summit but more important then the summit we reached, we add the chance to get in contact with 15 individuals that made this adventure memorable. Big thank to Omary (guide) Sam (guide) Thom (cook) Kassim (porter, waiter, Suisse knife of the trip) Issa (porter and toilet man) Ibrahim (porter) Mosses (porter) Baraka (porter) Salim (porter) Frank (porter) Nickson (porter) Samora (porter) Prosper (porter) Malkiadi (porter) Omary (porter) you guys are amazing and of course thank to Gosheni safaris!

Amazing Safari experience with William
We have had an amazing experience with Gosheni safari. Our guide is William and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide for our Safari trip. We had had concerns about the limited animals we could see with rain and tall grass, given we went in late November. However, William was a very experienced guide who knew every inch of the Serengeti national park and where to find the animals. We have called him our Santa Claus as our requests to see various animals were all met up. We saw lions and lionesses, in groups or alone, with baby lions and lioness, with preys or in sleep; cheetahs and baby cheetahs, leopard walking by the road or lying on the tree, dozens elephants crossing river, giraffes in family pack, hippo pond, buffalos etc. The hotels and camp sites were also phenomenal with yummy breakfasts and dinners and good services. For lunch, Willam took food boxes and would set up fancy picnics within the park. To our biggest surprise, at the end of our trip, William shared a video of all the joyful moments in our trip. We had no idea that he has been secretly documenting us and felt really warm-hearted and grateful to have him as our guide. We were really over the moon with the whole experience and especially with William and would highly recommend to friends who would like to experience the safari in Tanzania.

A Remarkable Tanzanian Safari Adventure in November！
This is my first time visiting Africa. The eight-day safari trip in Tanzania surpassed all expectations. We are so lucky to have William as our guide.
Despite the unpredictable weather, the safari experience was nothing short of magical. William's expertise and amiable nature not only ensured our safety but also enriched our understanding of the local environment and wildlife.
This safari was a perfect introduction to Africa, blending adventure, education, and cultural immersion. Our trip started from lake Manyara then to Serengeti, and we visited Ngorongoro before ending our trip in Arusha. William's guidance and the unforgettable experiences make it a journey I wholeheartedly recommend to fellow travelers seeking a memorable African safari.

Wonderful safari trip
I recently completed a safari trip to Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro with three friends. It has been an absolutely fantastic trip! Although I had done safari in Kenya before, the whole experience has been flawless and exceeded my expectation from start to finish.
Cindy is the representative who helped us plan the whole itinerary. She responded to emails quickly and provides good details and suggestions, making sure all our questions were addressed.
William, our guide, greeted us warmly at the airport and the trip only got better from there. William is super knowledgeable in wildlife and knows where to look and find them. In the end, we managed to see all the Big Fives - even better, countless lions and multiple cheetah and leopard sightings. We are constantly amazed by his experience - how he would recognise the wildlife from so faraway; and how he knows the roads and tracks in Serengeti.
He has also been extremely thoughtful. E.g. we always have hot food for lunch instead of simple lunch boxes, and a nice picnic setup from the hamper. His car is also new and in great condition with charging ports and comfortable seats.
Overall it has been such a wonderful trip and we’ll remember it forever!
Absolutely amazing
We spent a couple of days with William and the whole experience was absolutely amazing! Somehow William was able to spot lions from hundred meters away with his incredible eyesight, without whom we would definitely have missed a ton of animals. Apparently he truly loves animals, and he is super knowledgeable about them. It might have been a normal leisure trip chasing the back of animals but William has made it a scientific tour for me somehow. He fulfilled all our viewing dreams (seeing a lion please, seeing a male lion please, seeing a cheetah please, seeing a cheetah on the tree please, etc). I think this was my once in a lifetime travel experience so far.

Excellent safari company with nice perks
Gosheni Safaris are excellent and trustworthy company. Their safari was excellently planned, everything was on time and we received a lot of unforgettable experiences. Also our guide Leben was extremely caring, knowledgeable and fun person who had this almost magical ability to spot all animals and keep all our trip on track. Hot lunches provided by Gosheni are also highlight as they were very tasty and everydau portion of hot soup was a life saver on some days.
Obviously I would highly recommend Gosheni on your safari adventure.

Best experience we could have imagined - Gosheni exceeded all our expectations!
Our safari trip with Gosheni Safari was absolutely amazing.
Herman from the backoffice was very helpful in answering any of our questions before the final booking by timely answering all our messages.
The designated driver for the airport transfer was waiting for us upon arrival at the Kilimanjaro airport with no delay.
The safari started the day after, when Huruma picked us up at our hotel and drove us to the Gosheni offices, where we met Herman for tea and a short briefing about the safari.
As for the safari: We felt very comfortable and welcomed by Huruma's personality and way of being and that didn't change throughout the 4 day safari. Huruma is an extremely professional and passionate guide with many years of experience in the field. Due to his competence, none of our questions remained unanswered. Our trips started at the time agreed with Huruma, the truck was cleaned every night and complimentary water as well as food was refilled every day. Huruma's warm personality truly shows how much he cares about wildlife/animals as well the wellbeing and satisfaction of his clients. We highly recommend Gosheni Safari, specially Huruma as your next safari tour guide!
