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.

Amazing Trip with Gosheni Safaris
Many thanks to Gosheni Safaris and our outstanding guide Laban. My wife and I visited several Northern parks with Gosheni and it was an amazing trip. Our first park was Tarangire and we saw herds of elephant, lions, cheetah, leopard and a huge variety of eagles. Lake Manyara had tree climbing lions. In Ngorongoro Crater we saw huge herds of zebra, rhino and huge tuskers. Gosheni toured us in a new Landcruiser with plenty of space and provided hot meals in the bush. And our guide Laban was outstanding. He could identify an amazing number of bird species and it was a pleasure spending our week with him.

Excellent Safari Experience with Gosheni and our guide Dennis
My husband and I just had an unforgettable 8-day trip to Tanzania. I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the fantastic experience with the tour operator, Gosheni, and the exceptional services provided by our guide, Dennis.
Dennis’s professionalism and courtesy made our safari experience truly remarkable. His expertise in locating wildlife and catering to international tourists was evident throughout the trip. We greatly appreciated his punctuality, as he was always on time to pick us up from our lodge. Dennis went above and beyond by organizing delicious hot lunches for us during the day, taking into consideration the prevailing weather conditions and our physical well-being. His attention to detail and experience in accommodating varying needs were truly commendable.
Regarding our experience with Gosheni, we were very satisfied with their services. Norah, our sales representative, provided multiple itinerary options and patiently answered all our inquiries. Upon arrival in Tanzania, we discovered that the itinerary was well-planned, and we were highly satisfied with the chosen lodges. In fact, two of the lodges surprised us by celebrating our wedding anniversary.
If I had to say, there were also a few areas where improvement could be made. Firstly, the lodge in Arusha on the first day did not match the promised room category in the agency’s itinerary. Secondly, there was some confusion regarding whether lunch was included on our final day, and Norah repeatedly miscommunicated on this matter. Additionally, it would be better if we were notified in advance of the detail arrangements (who will be the guide, when will we be picked up, etc.).
Overall, our trip to Tanzania with Gosheni was truly enjoyable, and thanks to the professionalism and expertise of our guide, Dennis. I would highly recommend Gosheni to fellow travelers seeking a memorable safari experience in Tanzania.

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!

Every drive was a fun adventure!
The safari experience was beyond expectations, with all encompassing sensory & visually engaging drives coupled with an extraordinary guide with knowledge and charisma. Steve’s enthusiasm & skillful assessment over every encounter brought us all into an insanely enjoyable journey! Full recommendations, especially for our extraordinary Steve, he is the very best!
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.

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!

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.
