Excellent and attentive service resulted in a phenomenal trip
Climbing Kilimanjaro requires a guide and team that is there for you through all the challenges. Omari and his team did that and went above and beyond. His team guided us through difficult terrains, helped us with the gears, provided assistance with our bags when we needed it most, fed us delious food, checked our heath twice a day to ensure we were trekking safely and most of all anticipated our needs before we had to ask. Their knowledge of the terrain and ability to translate that knowledge to those new to the mountain was critical to our success.
I highly recommend his team/Gosheni to anyone considering summiting Kilimanjaro.
Thank you to the following team members for their support during the journey! The dream team: Guide Omari, Adam, Chef Omari, Ridhiwani, Salimu, Kasimu, Halifan, Juma, Mosses, Malikiadi, Kija, Ally, Ibrahim, Fikiri, Dallas, Samora, Rabiel, Alex and Maulid!

What more you need from a trekking company to tackle Mt. Kilimanjaro
Omary and his team of porters, support staff and chef went above and beyond to make sure we successfully scaled Kilimanjaro.
They provided assistance and encouragement throughout the entire journey. Hiking this mountain is no joke and Omary's team is hands down focused on achieving your goals.
Special shout-out to Adam, Ridhiwandi, Salimu, Kasimu and Halifan for the laughs, the encouragement, and the patience.
If you choose this team, you won't regret this challenging yet rewarding experience. You'll walk away having creating a new family and lifetime experiences.

Fantastic Trip with Gosheni Safaris
My wife and I had a fantastic ten-day private safari in Tanzania with Gosheni Safaris in July 2024. We worked with Norah in their office to plan a custom safari that included Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Central Serengeti National Park and the Northern Serengeti. She was helpful, patient and very responsive.
Our guide on the safari was Arnold, and he was fantastic. He seemed always to know the best routes and the best places to see wildlife, and did his best to accommodate our interests. He was a veritable font of knowledge about wildlife, trees and plants. We saw everything we hoped for and much more -- the so-called big five, the great migration, and wildebeest river crossings, plus large numbers of giraffes, gazelle, zebras and many other animals, and uncountable numbers and species of birds.
The tour vehicle was in great condition and comfortable. Gosheni provided delicious hot lunches daily. The accommodations (hotels on the first and last night, and tented camps the other nights) were delightful. On a whim, we let them know the trip was a celebration of our 40th anniversary. To our surprise, they honored us nearly every night.
The entire Gosheni team provided a well-coordinated and wonderful safari that exceeded our (admittedly high) expectations, at a competitive price.

Amazing, professional and truly oustanding...Thank you Gosheni
I would like to say a huge thank you to Gosheni and even more to Moris our guide. My mum and I couldn't pf asked for a better first time experience in the Serengeti. Moris has a wealth of knowledge and passion for Tanzania and it's history and wild life. Thanks heaps mate! You are a legend!! I would highly recommend Gosheni for anyone wanting an experience of a lifetime.
Accomodation = perfect
Food = perfect
Camp Staff = better than perfect.
See you in February Gosheni....

Gosheni -- providing an unforgettable safari experience
Gosheni made our bucket list trip dreams come true, providing a safari adventure that surpassed all of our expectations!! Their professionalism and attention to detail, clear coordination and communication, extremely knowledgable and hospitable guide, and willingness to personalize our safari was unlike any we’ve experienced before.
Everything started with communicating with Herman to plan and personalize our trip. He did a spectacular job at ensuring we’d experience the best of Tanzania while not feeling rushed. Herman even met with us our first day in-country to ensure we were refreshed on every detail of our upcoming adventure.
Our guide, Laban, became a fantastic friend by the end of the trip. He provided unparalleled service, knowledge, and was extremely welcoming, warm, and friendly from the moment we met. He truly made our experience unforgettable and a ton of fun. Laban was adept at finding animals and because of him, we were able to see everything we dreamt of and more. It was immediately clear to us why Laban has earned so many impressive accolades. Laban was very generous and excited to provide us with unique and personalized experiences throughout our adventure. Lastly, he taught us a lot about the language and wonderful culture of Tanzania, demonstrating his passion for sharing knowledge and helping to immerse us in the experience.
Gosheni as a tour operator also sticks out from the rest. Their 4x4 vehicles are in impeccable condition, extremely clean, comfortable, and reliable. You’ll enjoy the air conditioning for long drives, which most safari vehicles lack—and their specially-designed windows and pop-up roofs offer unrestricted visibility. Something else that stuck out about Gosheni is that our guide set up a full picnic lunch with a tablecloth, plates, and a hot multi-course meal, while almost every other safari group we saw had a paper box lunch. We felt incredibly lucky and this was truly a huge step above all other tour operators.
