A Life-Changing Safari Experience with the Most Amazing Guide!
5/5

This safari was beyond anything we could have imagined. Five full days in the Serengeti, surrounded by raw nature, breathtaking views, and unforgettable wildlife encounters.

But what truly elevated the experience was our incredible guide and driver, Gabriel. He wasn’t just professional—he was a gem. Warm, funny, endlessly patient, and deeply knowledgeable. He made us feel safe, cared for, and constantly engaged. His explanations were fascinating, his driving was smooth and confident, and his energy was simply contagious. Gabriel became part of our Group and part of the magic.

The company’s organization was flawless. Everything ran smoothly—from pick-up to drop-off, accommodations, meals, and timing. We saw the Big Five, witnessed dramatic animal interactions, and felt deeply connected to the land and its spirit.

This wasn’t just a trip. It was a GREAT journey, and we’re so grateful for it. If you’re considering a safari—don’t hesitate. And if you’re lucky enough to get Gabriel as your guide, prepare for something truly special

Herman, our tour operator was so prompt at answering all of our many questions.
5/5

Our experience with our driver James in Tanzania was phenomenal. He made the experience so amazing and fun by helping us identify the various species of animals. Gosheni is an excellent booking company as not only are the drivers knowledgeable, you always felt safe in their care.

Truly Remarkable
5/5

The safari with Gosheni was a highlight of my travel life. Bariki is a perfect guide with incredible knowledge of the parks and animals. He also went out of his way to ensure we saw more elusive animals such as distant leopards and engaged in interesting conversation. We saw all of the big 5 multiple times as well as other interesting animals such as cheetahs, servals, crocodiles, and of course wildebeest in the Great Migration. August is a great time to embark on a safari and I absolutely recommend Gosheni. They are accomodating and knowledgeable and I can’t imagine a safari experience being much better than the one I had.

Geaux Tigers!
5/5

We spent 6 days with James and he was an incredible guide. Good natured, friendly and an absolute expert at animal identification. We saw lions, cheetahs, cape buffalo, elephants, a leopard, a serval cat, a black rhino, pumbas and all varieties of antelope. Thank you James, I'd do it again in a heartbeat!

Top notch experience
5/5

Our group recently had the best time with Gosheni Safaris Africa. We could not had been happier with our Driver/guide James. From the moment we met James , he welcomed us with his warm personality and smile. It was truly a blessing to have him lead our tour as he is Tanzanian and his knowledge of the landscape, flora,fauna and people made the trip enjoyable and informative. He was able to spot wildlife and provide us up close encounters which exceeded our expectations. We saw so many different animals in Tarangire , the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti. We saw all of the big cats ! And we really appreciated his “Go Tigers” cheer since the LSU Tiger grads were in our truck. We already miss him.

James Kaaya was a fantastic guide/driver! He answered all of our questions and was so very helpful and friendly! He was very knowledgeable about the animals and plants throughout Tanzania! We had a great experience and would recommend Gosheni in a heartbeat! Lunches were delicious. All the meals were hot lunches in the bush! Wonderful experience!!

We had a wonderful experience with Gosheni. Inno was our Tanzania guide and was so knowledgeable on the animals and knew just where to take us to see amazing sites. We had memorable bush lunches, felt safe at all times and would highly recommend Gosheni

Unforgettable Safari with Gosheni and our amazing guide Laban
5/5

My husband and I had an unforgettable 7-day safari with Gosheni. From the very start, Norah was amazing—she customized the whole itinerary exactly the way I wanted and gave me such great suggestions that made everything even better.

And then there’s our guide, Laban. Honestly, he’s a 10/10. With 18 years of experience, his knowledge about animals and plants blew me away. Every single day felt like being in a live documentary, with Laban as our personal narrator. No matter what we asked, he had the answer, and he always knew the routes by heart. On top of that, he’s an excellent driver—we felt completely safe the whole time. He really is like a walking GPS.

What amazed us the most was his sharp eye for spotting wildlife. Many times, Laban would be the very first to find an animal, which meant we had private time to enjoy it before other vehicles arrived. He also always managed to find the best viewing and photo angles. In mid-September, we were lucky enough to witness two Mara River crossings. The second one started right as we arrived. Even though there were dozens of cars already there, Laban somehow got us into a perfect position to see everything up close.

This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime safari. When we come back to Tanzania, we’ll book with Gosheni again and will absolutely ask for Laban.

An Unforgettable Journey
5/5

My recent safari in Tanzania was, without exaggeration, the trip of a lifetime. From the vast, endless plains of the Serengeti to the breathtaking crater of Ngorongoro, every moment was filled with awe and wonder.

We booked a 7-day safari and they exceeded all our expectations. Our guide, Albert,was incredibly knowledgeable. He had a sharp eye for spotting wildlife that we would have easily missed, from a leopard perfectly camouflaged in a tree to a family of elephants quietly emerging from the bush. His passion for the animals and their conservation was truly inspiring.

Beyond Expectations: A Truly Magical Safari in Tanzania
5/5

If you're looking for a review that tells you this safari was "good," then look elsewhere. Our adventure with Gosheni was nothing short of magical, exceeding every hope we had.

This trip was a celebration for our anniversary, and from the very beginning, the team made us feel special. Our guide, Albert, was an absolute gem. His ability to track animals was uncanny, but it was his deep respect for the environment that truly set her apart. He didn't just show us animals; he told us their stories, explaining behaviors and ecosystems in a way that made the savanna come alive.
