Surreal, incredible, breathtaking!
We had an amazing time with Gosheni and loved that from the moment we reached out they were able to help us customise the experience to meet our needs.
We saw Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti parks over a week.
Our tour guide, Ombeni was very knowledgeable and was dedicated to helping us find animals. We would give him a "wish list" and even though it's largely up to chance he was resourceful to take us to the best spots. Often, we were the first vehicle to arrive at a destination and enjoyed watching the animals all by ourselves before the crowds arrived. This really made a difference in our experience.
The accommodation was also very comfortable and staff were friendly and hospitable.
So many "pinch me" moments like watching lions, cheetahs up close, being surrounded by elephants and observing acts of nature.

An Unforgettable 8-Day Tanzanian Safari with Gosheni Safaris – Simply Superb!
My group of 6 friends and I just returned from an incredible 8-day safari in Tanzania with Gosheni Safaris, and we are still buzzing from the experience! From start to finish, everything was flawless, exceeding all our expectations and creating memories we'll cherish forever.
Our journey in July was perfectly timed for spectacular wildlife viewing, especially for the Great Migration, which we witnessed in its full glory. We explored the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, and Lake Manyara, and the itinerary was perfectly paced, allowing us to soak in every moment without ever feeling rushed. The mix of comfortable lodges and authentic tented camps throughout provided the perfect balance of luxury and an immersive "bush" experience – each accommodation was thoughtfully chosen and fantastic.
Our guide, Ombeni, was the true MVP of this trip. He wasn't just a driver; he was a true expert, deeply passionate about the wildlife and his country. Ombeni's knowledge of the parks and animal behavior was incredible, and he had an uncanny ability to spot even the most camouflaged creatures. Thanks to him, we witnessed countless lions (including several prides with cubs!), leopards, cheetahs, and rhinos, easily completing our Big Five checklist multiple times over. He patiently answered all our questions, shared fascinating insights into the ecosystem, and ensured our group of six always had the best possible viewing angles. His enthusiasm was infectious, and his friendly demeanor made every single day a joy. Sharing these breathtaking sightings with our best friends, guided by Ombeni, made the experience even more special and exhilarating.
The food throughout our journey was excellent, catering to all of us, and the safari vehicle was comfortable and well-maintained, providing great viewing from its pop-up roof.
If you're planning a safari in Tanzania, I cannot recommend Gosheni Safaris highly enough, and absolutely request Ombeni as your guide. He transformed our dream safari into an unforgettable reality for all six of us. We're already dreaming of our next trip back!

Once in a lifetime experience with knowledgeable and experienced safari guide!
This is our first time traveling to Tanzania and the whole experience is amazing. We have a 9-days trip with 2 days of cultural experience and 5 days of game drive. Our guide greeted us outside the airport and bring us to buy SIM card for data so don’t worry if you didn’t purchase in advance.
We did a waterfall hiking trail and some local village visiting before the game drive and learned a lot about the local people. Also we got the chance to purchase the souvenirs to support the locals.
Then we entered Serengeti to see animals. Our guide Laban and Bariki, are very experienced and knowledgable, taught us everything about animals. They always drive us up to the good spot for photography. Laban has a Chinese handbook for animal that he can refer to when we saw them which enrich the whole experience.
All hotels we stayed are nice and exceed our expectations. Hot shower water and stable electricity provided all 24 hours.
All in all, it was a great and unforgettable journey will Gosheni. Highly recommended!!!!✨

Excellent Safari Experience
Our five-day safari with Gosheni Safaris was fantastic! Our guide Laban showed us incredible wildlife including lions, cheetahs, zebras, giraffes, and elephants, creating wonderful memories for us. He shared his extensive knowledge about the animals with us, making the experience even more enriching. When I became unwell during the trip, Laban provided excellent support and assistance, helping me complete the journey successfully.
Highly recommend Gosheni Safaris for their outstanding service and wildlife viewing experience!

Unforgettable memories in Tanzania
Gosheni Safari is a well organized company which provides all kinds of info before our trip begins and answers questions from big to small.
We are having a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience in Tanzania with Gosheni and our guides - Laban & Bariki! Our guide Laban, — always friendly, funny , and extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife. We not only SEE animals but also learn a lot about how/ why the animals behave or act in the wildlife.
We are a group of nine but none of us felt left behind. All things were well arranged!
I highly recommend Gosheni Safari, and if you can, definitely ask for Laban & Bariki !

Unforgettable experience!
This African safari has truly been one of the most unforgettable adventures of my life.
We explored the vast wildlife reserves, led by our amazing local guide, Bariki. He was incredibly sincere, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable. He could always spot animals hidden in the bushes before anyone else and shared many fascinating facts about their behavior and characteristics with us. His passion for nature was contagious.
The accommodations also exceeded all my expectations. Our tented lodges were clean, comfortable, and beautifully integrated with the surrounding environment. Returning to camp each day to a warm towel and a refreshing drink felt incredibly thoughtful and welcoming.
Thanks to Bariki, we didn’t just see the wildlife — we understood it. His genuine care and expert guidance added so much meaning to the entire journey.
If you're considering a safari, I recommend it. You’ll return not just with photos, but with emotional connections to nature and memories that last a lifetime.

Everything is out of expectations, from food, accommodation to tour guide! There is almost 0 moment that I feel uncomfortable. Our tour guide, Bariki, has an outstanding driving skill and plenty of knowledge. We saw all the animal on our wishlist and it's truly unforgettable. If you are still hesitate to start the Africa journey, I would encourage you to choose Gosheni Safaris and appoint Bariki as your tour guide, then an amazing journey is waiting for you!
