service oriented .
I have dreamt of going on a Safari , most of my life . Finally happened,little did I know that we would be so well accompanied, by our guide william david who was there for all of our needs (Such personalized service). Other than his patience , with our daily late departures, we managed to cover more than we could imagine. Not to memention his well behaved manors towards us, his colleagues and respect for Nature.

Wonderful
My experience with gosheni was amazing I would recommend this company to looking to do a safari. The lodge and service was a special experience and our guide Wiliam made it even more special by showing us more than we expected. Thank you

Ombeni is nothing less than the most perfect tour guide I've ever had!!!
Gosheni Safaris was great from the moment I was in communication with Peter to the day we landed in Arusha! Our tour guide picked us up and took us to our hotel where we relaxed before the start of the first day of our safari. We did the 5-day luxury package and it truly is a luxurious experience and it could have only been so with the great execution of our guide Ombeni! The entire experience was 100% worth every dollar I spent and I definitely will come back again, as long as Ombeni is my guide! I was told from online sources to go into the safari with low expectations because nature does its own thing and there's a chance that you won't see much, but honestly, if you have an experienced tour guide like Ombeni, you will see more than you could imagine. I never in my life imagined seeing the wildlife that I saw, while also being so close!

Wildlife is real! Amazing safari!
We've heard a lot about safari before. We've been watching NatGeo Wild for a long time and we enjoyed to watch it. When lockdown eased we decided to go to safari. We choose Gosheni Safaris and that choice was right!
Manager Peter gave us all required information and helped us with a lot of questions about COVID-19 rules, Customs and so on.
Special thanks for our guide Ombeni. He was our guide, professional driver (especially during descending into the Ngorongoro crater and back), funny story teller, expert in wild nature, friend and the most important one - "eagle eye"! He was able to see the animals too far from the vehicle! Ombeni, thank you for all and I hope to return again for another safari.
We had 5-days safari including Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater and Manyara lake.
We were lucky - we saw all big five, and cheetahs, giraffes and hippos. The most important experience was a part of great migration at Serengeti National Park. That was amazing and we want to visit any other parts of that migration.
Lodges were perfect at all. Especially inside the parks - we were lying at the night and heard all the animal communications nearby such as lion's roaring, hyena's giggling and wildbeast's screaming. That was a deep dive into the wild nature. All the lodges' staff was very hospitalable and polite. There was amazing that we were only guests in two parks due to COVID-19 pandemic times.
I would say special thanks for supply food organization. We had a proper meal everywhere: at the lodge and and the picnic areas as well. There were proper meals including all nutritions, not like little snacking.
We've got amazing impressions and want to come back again to this incredible country and with Gosheni Safaris.

Reliable, competent and fun.
Seeing African animals alive in their natural habitat has been one of my life’s dreams. Who knew I would accomplish this dream during a pandemic but thanks to Gosheni Safari’s I did. Prompt and clear Internet communication with Pendo helped my group of four plan a private, safe six day safari. We traveled in a comfortable, clean, reliable 4 wheel drive vehicle with a pop up top and our guide William at the wheel.
I was in awe of William’s knowledge the day we got up early in search of a Cheetah William had heard was near our Acacia Seronera Luxury Tent Camp. In the first two hours we found not only the Cheetah but 2 pups with her, saw the family unsuccessfully hunt an impala, then happened upon one lion that ended up being 3 lions that trotted off over the great plain and finally stopped on a hillside watching lions, hyenas, antelope and jackals all hanging out together. We still had 10 hours of our safari day left to explore the Wildebeest migration!
I felt William’s respect for and pride in the Serengeti, Tarangire and Ngornongoro with his enthusiasm in sharing his extensive animal, bird and plant knowledge with my group. Willam is a patient guide letting us stop to take thousands of photos at yet another family of giraffes. I marveled at Willian’s ability to spot while driving, from the giant elephant to the deadly Puff Adder. And always say yes when Willian asks if you’d like to stop for a coffee break. You might just enjoy your coffee with 15 lions.
Let Gosheni Safaris worry about the details of your Safari. You will stay in clean, comfortable lodges, eat 3 meals a day with loads of local fruits and vegetables and meet helpful and friendly staff at each lodge, who offer you such delicious drinks as honeyed hibiscus ginger juice. Each day you stop for a mid-day multi-course hot meal served on a tablecloth with glass place settings. You don’t have to think about the small details like gas, park fees, water or which turn to take at park intersections. It is so worth paying for a guide because the guides work together to share animal sightings. If you have the privilege of living in a country where you have been vaccinated, I highly recommend a safari with Gosheni Safaris and William in the drivers seat. Come soon as tours are uncrowded and available.

The best experience of my life!
I can honestly say this has been the best experience of my life and it’s all thanks to Gosheni Safari. From the moment we booked to the moment we left the customer service has been amazing. We stayed in an incredible camp in the middle of the Serengeti which was perfect. A special thanks to our guide Hassani who has been amazing. His knowledge of the wildlife and the serengeti is incredible, he knows exactly where to go. Not only that, but the food and vehicle provided cannot be faulted. If you want to see EVERYTHING on your safari and have the best service possible then look no further!!…Everything was perfect!

ASK FOR FIDELIS!
Our entire interaction with Gosheni Safari was so great! Before I got to Tanzania, I was mainly in contact with Pendo. She was so patient with me when I was constantly changing what I wanted to do for our custom itinerary. Since we only had 3 days, she was very realistic with me about what we could and could not accomplish in that timeframe, which was super helpful to not overwhelm us on the trip. We had the absolute best time on safari with Fidelis. He was fantastic! We only had 3 days between the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater and his time management was phenomenal. We saw sooo many animals including a leopard! He could spot animals from so far away I was shocked! He would get us so close to the animals I felt like I could reach out and pet them! He has been doing this for so many years and has so much knowledge, he could answer any question we asked. The food was also delicious! To have a white table cloth with a hot meal and wine while everyone else had plain brown bag lunches was a treat. On the way home he even stopped at a couple places so we could look and buy some tanzanite. Overall the safari with Fidelis was more that I could ever have imagined! I would HIGHLY recommend him and Gosheni safaris.

Amazing experience with the best guide in the country.
Our trip with Gosheni Safaris was amazing! We spent 7 days seeing Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara and it could not have been any better. The best part was our guide William. I promise you he is the best guide in Tanzania. He went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. He is super funny and knows everything and everyone in the area. We saw every single animal we had hoped to see plus many more. The camps we stayed in were awesome. The food was amazing as well as the staff working there. I’ve never seen better hospitality in my life. I had looked at multiple companies while planning this trip and I am so glad I chose Gosheni. I truly believe they are the best company in the country.
