Professional company and outstanding 9 day safari in Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Manyara and Tarangire
Booked two trips with Gosheni after recommendation from friends. Family of five in one vehicle for the safari. Herman was wonderful at fast communication regarding all of our questions.
Michael was a fantastic guide with his knowledge of the animals and also with all of the info he taught us regarding the Tanzanian culture and Swahili language. We had a great time hanging out with him and playing cards at night. Vehicle was in great shape.
The food at all of the lodges and the hot lunches during the game drives was excellent - the entire family loved it.
Gosheni does have you wire the funds which made me a little leery but the company was completely trustworthy and organized.
Highly recommend.

Incredible once in a lifetime experience
We had an amazing time on our safari with our wonderful guide, Inno. Everything was very well organized and each day was adapted to our needs and preferences, thanks to Inno's attentiveness to our group. We saw tons of animals, but Inno even paid particular attention to the more "unique" species we hoped to see and was a treasure trove of information about animals, plants, and Tanzania in general. Service at all of the hotels was excellent, and the itinerary was well thought-out to give us an incredible experience. June was the perfect time to the the migration in the Western Serengeti, and weather was great the entire trip. Our contact at Gosheni, Marline, was also very helpful and responsive whenever we needed something before and during the trip. I would highly recommend Gosheni Safaris to anyone!

Ask for Michael from Goneshi Safaris. Trust me
Thanks to our amazing guide, Michael. He was incredibly responsible and attentive, always helping us solve any problems that came up. Michael drove carefully and professionally, making us feel safe throughout the journey. He constantly engaged us in cheerful conversations, which kept the atmosphere fun and lively.
What stood out most was his detailed and vivid explanations—everything he shared was easy to understand and brought the places we visited to life. On top of that, Michael has a great sense of humor, which made the experience more enjoyable. Thanks to him, our trip was not only smooth but truly perfect. Highly recommend him to anyone visiting Tanzania

Excellent local Safari Tour Operator and best Tanzania Safari Guide
When we planned our safari, we did some research on some local safari tour operators and global ones, and we decided for Gosheni Safari. That was the right decision, Gosheni is a local reliable Safari Tour Operator. From the moment we inquired for a safari program, William provided us with professional Sales advice, our itinerary was practical and accommodations were well selected. When we were on our one week Safari in June 2025 in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, everything went perfectly, Laban, our safari guide took a great care of us. He is a very competent safari guide. Apparently, he’s one of the winners of the Best Tanzania Safari Guide year 2024. His hospitality and deep safari knowledge made our safari experience special and memorable. Apart from the big 5, birds and various wild animals, we got to see a Cheetah, black mamba and the wildebeests migration crossing a river in June! That was incredible. Thanks Laban!

Michael is a careful, helpful and attentive guide!
We had an amazing time with Gosheni Safaris! Our guide was super thoughtful—he noticed we didn’t have big zoom lenses, so he made sure to get us close to the animals. We saw a pride of lions and a mother cheetah with her cub, which was incredible. Even with the rain and muddy roads, he handled everything smoothly and kept us safe. He also shared some really interesting info about the Maasai people, which made the trip even more special. Great service, great value, and overall a fantastic experience. Would definitely recommend!

Michael is the best tour guide.
Traveling is always an exciting adventure, but what makes it truly unforgettable is having an amazing tour guide. On my recent trip, I was lucky enough to meet Michael, whose professionalism, knowledge, and warm personality made the journey absolutely fantastic.
First of all, Michael was incredibly knowledgeable. He knew every detail about the places we visited—historical facts, cultural traditions, and even the best local spots for food. His storytelling skills brought each location to life, making the tour not just informative but also engaging and fun.
What impressed me the most was his passion for his job. Michael didn’t just recite facts; he truly cared about giving us the best experience possible. He was always patient, answering all our questions with a smile and making sure everyone felt included. His enthusiasm was contagious, and it made the whole group excited to explore.
Moreover, Michael was extremely organized and considerate. He managed the schedule perfectly, ensuring we had enough time at each attraction without feeling rushed. He also paid attention to small details, like reminding us to stay hydrated and helping those who needed extra assistance.
Thanks to Michael, my trip was more than just sightseeing—it was a memorable adventure filled with laughter, learning, and new friendships. He wasn’t just a tour guide; he was the heart of our journey. If you ever have the chance to travel with Michael, don’t hesitate—he’s simply the best!

Unforgettable Experience with the Best Guide in Africa – Michael
Our trip to the Serengeti was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks to our incredible guide, Michael from Goneshi Safaris. From the moment we met him at the Tanzania border, it was clear we were in the best hands. Michael has went above and beyond in every possible way – his attention to detail, deep knowledge of the land and wildlife, and genuine care for our experience made all the difference.
He is attentive, thoughtful, and incredibly sharp – always anticipating what we needed before we even asked. Whether it was spotting elusive animals, such as a Cheetah feeding on a Thompson Gazelle, or making sure we were comfortable, or sharing fascinating insights about the Serengeti, Michael consistently exceeded our expectations.
It’s rare to come across someone so dedicated and passionate about what they do. Thanks to Michael, we didn’t just see the Serengeti – we felt it. This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime journey, and we owe so much of that to him.
If you’re planning a safari, ask for Michael. There is no other. You will be in the most capable, caring, and knowledgeable hands.

We love MICHAEL!! So articulate, polite and gave us so much history and insight.
We had the absolute pleasure of having Michael as our guide on our African safari with Gosheni, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met him, Michael made us feel safe, welcomed, and excited for the journey ahead. His deep knowledge of the wildlife, landscape, and local culture brought every game drive to life — whether it was tracking the Big Five or teaching us about the migration patterns, he always had insightful stories and facts to share.
Beyond his expertise, what truly stood out was his kindness, patience, and passion for what he does. He made sure every detail was taken care of, always had a smile on his face, and treated us like family. Thanks to him, we had unforgettable sightings, including a cheetah hunt, a lion pride at sunset, and even a rare black rhino. It was magical.
Michael is truly the heart of what made our safari so special. If you’re lucky enough to be paired with him, you’re in for a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
