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.

Our guide Walter was the real deal
We had the pleasure of having Walter as our safari guide in Tanzania. From the very beginning, he impressed us with his kindness, respect, and professionalism. On day one, he sat with us to discuss our priorities and made sure to keep them in mind throughout the trip.
Thanks to his dedication and sharp eye, we were able to see an incredible variety of wildlife — from elephant families and rhinos to multiple pairs of male lions, lionesses with cubs, leopards, and wild buffalo. We also saw endless wildebeest and zebras, graceful towers of giraffes, impalas, Thompson’s gazelles, waterbucks, and so much more. One of the highlights was at the Ngorongoro Crater, where Walter spotted a rhino with her baby from a distant lookout point — a moment that truly showed his remarkable animal-spotting skills.
Walter worked tirelessly to position us for the best sightings and even went above and beyond to try and help us catch the great river crossing.
We couldn’t have asked for a more committed guide. Walter’s deep knowledge of the parks, patience, and genuine passion for wildlife made our safari not just a trip, but an unforgettable experience we’ll always treasure.

fantastic holidays in Tanzania!
My vacation in Tanzania is wonderful and full of adventures! I did 10 days of safaris in various areas, such as Arusha National Park, Serengeti Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara and Tarangire Park! I saw a wide variety of wild animals that fascinated me, such as elephants, lions, leopards, cheetahs, giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes (gazelles, impalas, water bucks, elands, dik dik), zebras, hippos, crocodiles, rhinos, wildebeest, etc. I also saw a wide variety of birds. I saw all the preparations for the migration of thousands of wildebeest on the Mara River. I also visited a Masai village and learned about their customs, which I loved! The guide, named Zadock, was extraordinary and an excellent professional, always friendly and kind, available, concerned about our well-being and interested in showing us all the animals and beautiful landscapes and always explaining the wildlife as well as the customs of the people of Tanzania. Thank you Zadock for everything, you're fantastic!

The trip of our dreams. A fantastic guide. A very professional company
We planned this trip to Tanzania with the help of Gosheni Tours. We visited the most emblematic parks, staying in places that brought us very close to the safari atmosphere. It was unforgettable to wake up and look out and see zebras, elephants, etc. The food was very well prepared and didn't cause us any problems.
Zadock is a guide who is always concerned about our well-being. Very polite. With him we had the safari we dreamed of. With his great dedication he was able to show us the characteristic mammals of Tanzania, always accompanying us with explanations of animal life. As he understood our interest in birdwatching, he gave us unforgettable views that we never thought we would see. A fantastic guide .
