Very accommodating and well planned
Our tour was customized with the Gosheni team in advance. They took everything we requested and executed into a well thought out itinerary. Our 9 days tour was nothing short of extraordinary, lodges were excellent in terms of comfort and the food were delicious. The staffs were super friendly and helpful.
Our tour guide George came highly recommended by reviews and the staff at Gosheni. And he did not disappoint. He was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the animals. It's apparent that he has been doing this for a long time and has all the "insider" info on where and how to spot the animals. We were able to see all the big 5 with him, although no guarantee but he was excellent at tracking them down. We highly recommend requesting George when you book the tour.

Great First Time Safari Experience w/ Gosheni
My wife and I had an amazing time with Gosheni Safari. We were able to see all of the wildlife we were hoping to see as well as the big five. Our route was Tarangerie, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. George, our guide, was fantastic. He was patient, knowledgeable and considerate. He knew where to go to maximize our chances of sightings and because of this we were about to catch the wildebeest river crossing. Would definitely recommend him to other travelers. Gosheni also went the extra mile between pick up, meals and drop off. We were always on time, comfortable and safe. Overall a fantastic experience.

Kenya & Tanzania safari
We had an amazing safari experience in Kenya and Tanzania, made possible by a truly professional team. The organization was smooth from start to finish, and every detail was taken care of. Our guides, Ismael and Calvin, were excellent—always on time, driving spotless 4WDs, and sharing their impressive knowledge of local wildlife. We felt safe and well looked after at all times. Their friendly personalities and perfect service, including food and drinks, made the trip even more enjoyable. This company exceeded our expectations, and we happily recommend them to anyone planning a safari.
Amazing 14 day safari Kenya & Tanzania
Our safari through Kenya and Tanzania was an unforgettable experience, thanks to the outstanding team behind it. From the start, the planning was seamless and tailored perfectly to our wishes. On the ground, our guides Ismael (Kenya) and Calvin (Tanzania) were exceptional—always punctual, driving clean and comfortable 4WDs, and ensuring our safety throughout. Their deep knowledge of wildlife brought every moment to life, while their warm personalities made the journey a joy. The service, from food to thoughtful details, was flawless. This company truly delivered beyond our expectations, and we would highly recommend them to anyone dreaming of an authentic and memorable safari adventure.

Amazing First Time Safari w Gosheni.
We had a wonderful time traveling through Tarangerie, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Our guide George was very knowledgable about the animals as well as the history of the regions we visited. He's very dedicated and customizes the tour to the visitor's schedule. All of his suggestions helped to increase the chances of animal sightings and as a result we were able to catch a sighting of all the Africa big five.

Great guides, luxurious lodges, comfortable cars
We were a family of eight, and booked a 8 night safari across Kenya and Tanzania with Gosheni. Overall the trip was amazing and the Gosheni guides, Dawood in Kenya and Michael and Prosper in Tanzania took very good care of us. The guides were fun, pleasant and courteous. They communicated constantly with other drivers to locate the best sightings, and always drove us to the point with the best view. We saw all the wildlife we wanted close-up, including a cheetah hunting, the big 5 and leopards and lions with their cubs.
Their cars were very spacious, clean and comfortable.
We were also very happy with the lodges they selected and particularly enjoyed the Karibu group lodges.
While Gosheni got most of the important things right, there were a few hiccups which we feel could have been avoided. For example, the power sockets in the cars didn’t work, the wrong flight arrival time was provided and to the driver at Kogatende, the hot lunch option was only provided to us on two of the eight days, the wrong lodge was stated in the itinerary at one park.
Despite these small hiccups, we had a lovely holiday overall and would recommend Gosheni.

ONLY because of Bariki that I am giving a 5 star. He made up for the terrible sales & ops - 1 star!
Bariki has great experience and in-depth knowledge of the wildlife in Tanzania. He ALONE made our 10-day safari memorable.
And it is only because we learned and enjoyed Bariki's insights into the animals, plants, and birds that we are giving a 5-star to Gosheni (without him, it is at best a 1-star).
Sales & operations were horrible. Norah from Sales, took weeks before replying and then did not reply the questions being asked.
She sold us a mid-luxury package with 4-star accommodation. The hotels Okkarien Eco Camp & Acacia at Tarangire were barely livable. The tents leaked when it rained, for example.
The staff at these 2 lodges were very helpful but if such run-down, badly maintained properties, there is really very little they can do.
