Fantastic safary!
It was a fantastic tour,I enjoyed (almost) every second. Isaya picked up from the hotel at 7.30am(exactly as he said),then a long ,5 hours to Mikumi ,but the minibus was very comfortable. The massai village was a very nice suprise( I was worried as it is an "artificial " entertainment, like a museum,but it was the rexl life). The accommodation was really really good,and the next day driving safary was perfect!!! Isaya and the ranger (Nova?)were perfect company,we were loughing a lot,and saw almost everything.
The walking tour to the waterfall was a bit unlucky,as my wife was poorly,so we had to turn back half way, but it was nobody's fault,just unlucky for us. The last day went back to Dar,and we were dropped at the ferry boat. Thanks for Isaya,Nova,and Pete(our driver)everything! It was a fantastic experience.

Fabulous safari!!
We really enjoyed our recent Safari with Said to tsavo east and west and amboseli. It was amazing, we saw so much wildlife such as cheetahs, leopards, lions, hippos and even a rhino. Our guide was very experience and knew exactly where to go to see the wildlife. We fully recommend king tomondo for a great safari with Said who was a absolutely fabulous guide.

If it's a Once-in-a-lifetime adventure... Gosheni does it right!
My partner and I spent 8 days on a Gosheni Safari, and as well travelled as we are, we have both put this last week up there at the top of our favorite holiday list. Having discovered I had more time off than I expected over the Christmas holidays, we decided travel further afield than we were originally planning. We started looking at a safari in Tanzania and reached out to a few companies based on their reviews. Peter, the owner of Gosheni, was very quick with responding to communication and pulled together an 8-day safari itinerary that we booked only one week out.
Upon arrival we were blown away by the professionalism and organization of this company. We were greeted at the airport by Peter himself, then we in the hands of our new best friend... our guide Ombeni.
For the last week, it has been just Ombeni, my partner and I in a super comfortable, and super spacious Landcruiser as we explored the Tarangiri and Serengeti National Parks and the Ngorogoro Crater. Ombeni astounds me every day with his eagle eyesight ... pointing out things like leopards lounging in trees and lions poking their heads up from the grass that I never would have seen myself because they are so camouflaged. We have seen EVERYTHING and my photos look like I'm a professional National Geographic Photographer from just a compact DSLR camera. From cheetahs running, to lions mating, to baby cubs in a pride, to the migration of the zebra and wilderbeast. It really does feel like the opening scene to "The Lion King" as cheesy as that sounds.
A huge part of our enjoyment was that our guide, Ombeni, was so knowledgeable and became like a brother throughout the trip. His sense of humor, big smile and contagious laughter made us feel so welcomed and right at home from the start.
As far as value for money... Gosheni Safaris has got to be the best out there. The accommodation at each camp was outstanding, the vehicles were all brand new with the pop top that makes for a comfortable ride and brilliant viewing while staying shaded all day, and did I mention WiFi on board??? Oh, and while I'm drinking a glass of wine at lunch over a delicious 3 course meal while the other companies hand out a brown lunch box with a sandwich... we got lots of jealous stares from other safari groups. Lol.
We had opted for the mid-luxury package and were blown away at every overnight stop at just how "luxury" it was. The camps are magnificent and was Glamping at its finest!! I mean, when you have a full en-suite bathroom with a fancy bathtub inside your tent (that's larger than my one back home), you just never want to leave!!
This safari is certainly going down in my books as an adventure of a lifetime and it's all thanks to Ombeni and Gosheni Safari's.

Crazy trip which was beyond my expectations.
We booked a 3 day/2night Safari covering Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater with Trip Quest Safaris and it was awesome! We saw the big 5 and our guide Eli were super friendly and helpful. Food and accommodation which was chosen from Martin was amazing, They were also very clean and was having spectacular view. We recommend them big time.

AMAZING TANZANIA SAFARI EXPERIENCE AFTER COVID!
We had the most amazing safari in October 2020. Because of the worldwide covid crisis, there were only a few numbers of people in the national parks. Many times, we were the only Vehicle spotting an animal. Also, we could see everything from nearby. Our guide was Abisai, we could not have wished for a better guide. He has a lot of experience, a lot of knowledge about nature and wildlife, and loves to share it with you. He is also a very good driver. The most authentic experience is COVID Policy they have been using, it’s something that provides us Safe and Secure trip. So now is the best time to go on safari in Tanzania!

Amazing people making an Amazing Experience
When I decided to book a Safari in Tanzania at the last minute I did some research and narrowed it down to three companies. I emailed them all and Peter from Gosheni was both the most responsive and the most accommodating for our needs.
Once we arrived we were collected from the airport and taken to our hotel for the first night. The next morning we were met by our guide and travel companion for the next week, Ombeni.
Ombeni was an amazing guide as he is smart, funny, very gracious and knows everything there is to know about this beautiful part of the world. He also has eyes like a hawk and was spotting animals in places it took us ages to see even when he was pointing them out.
Now I know seeing all the wonderful creatures is down to a certain degree of luck but with a guide like Ombeni supported by the wonderful team at Gosheni you massively increase your chances.
If you have ever wanted to go on Safari then Gosheni will be able to provide you with the most truly amazing experience.

Incredible! Thoughtful organization, superb guide and great food.
My safari was really cool and Wakanda was quite professional all the way, either in the pre-tour process, either during the actual tour.
The guide was amazing, always with an “eagle” eye trying to find a potential leopard on some tree or a hidden pride. It’s all about luck in a safari (one day you can see 2 cheetahs or a lion hunting and in the next only see zebras and wilderbeests) but you also need to find your luck and a great guide plays a key role in the experience. Praise, thanks a lot for all the stories and laughs that I had with you.
The food also is really important during a period of 4-6 days and I got the luck of being always super full. Out of 15+ meals, I only had a couple of meals that I didn’t repeat. Sulé is a great cook!
Strongly Recommend.

Safari without worries
I would like to share my experience I had with Eyes On Serengeti Safaris & Tours. I booked a 6 Day private Safari tour in Tanzania to see African wildlife for the first time.
Eyes On Serengeti is a small and still new company. The owner and manager Richard was very responsive both in e-mail as well as on whatsapp during the tour. He organized the tour and accommodations and made sure everything runs smoothly. Any question or doubts I had were addressed promptly.
My tour guide, also named Richard, was very professional and knowledgable. He put a lot of effort in making me comfortable during the trip. He is calm, polite, helpful and very excited about spotting wildlife. He is also able to adjust to the needs of the guest, communicates fluently in English and informed about the program of the day. He is taking care of the guests and drives very responsibly.
Overall, the standard of service that was provided was consistently on a very high level. Especially in current times of worldwide pandemic, I was grateful to have chosen a reliable tour operator. I would definitely book with Eyes in Serengeti again and recommend Richard as tour guide. Thanks to both Richards for making my stay in Tanzania such a positive experience!
