Excellent, personalized safari trip for our family of 4, highlight includes viewing ALL big 5
While finalizing the tour operator we had several options and quotes. Our criteria was to go with a local operator (to support them) at the same time who can provide us personalized and more immersive tour ensuring we learn and experience local culture, flora and fauna. Now that the safari is complete, highly recommend John and his Sercar Serengeti Wildlife Safaris, we couldn't have asked for more.
John and his team were extremely accessible right from the time we sent the inquiry to welcoming us in Tanzania to following up during each day of the safari till the send off from Tanzania. Our safari included Serengeti, Ndutu (calving), Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Manyara.
All the accommodations were booked as expected tailoring it for our family of 4 (sometimes with connected rooms)
Our guide, Emmanuel was a local Maasai with deep knowledge of the local culture, flora and fauna and helped us find, view ALL big 5s. Other highlights include, viewing Cerval, a nocturnal cat few times, viewing Cheetah and cubs in Ndutu, hard to find Rhino in Ngorongoro
We also had strict vegetarian diet preference which was handled by John and his team every day and each of the accommodations.

High quality service and an amazing overall experience
I had an incredible safari experience with Gosheni, and a huge part of that was thanks to our driver guide, James Kaaya. From the very beginning, James was warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. He put in so much effort to make sure I had an unforgettable experience, and he absolutely delivered. His knowledge of the wildlife, parks, and animal behavior was impressive, and he went out of his way to position the vehicle for the best possible photo opportunities. I never felt rushed and always felt that my experience truly mattered to him.
Gosheni as a company was also excellent to work with. Communication throughout the booking process was clear, prompt, and professional, and everything promised was delivered exactly as expected.
Overall, I would highly recommend Gosheni to anyone considering a safari, and if you get the chance, I strongly suggest doing your safari with James Kaaya - he made the experience truly special.

Experienced, reliable, and genuinely passionate about creating once-in-a-lifetime safari
I did a 3 days / 2 nights safari in Tsavo East and West, and I can honestly say it was one of the best experiences of my life.
I did extensive research before booking, and Steve stood out immediately. He offered us the best price and was the only one who suggested staying at Lion Hill Safari Lodge. This turned out to be a fantastic choice — the lodge is less crowded, has clean and comfortable rooms, stunning views, and truly amazing food.
We were also incredibly lucky to have such an excellent driver and tour guide. He went above and beyond to make sure we saw as many animals as possible, answered all our questions with deep knowledge, and took great care of us throughout the trip. He helped with check-ins, handled our luggage, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish.
During the safari, we saw giraffes, elephants, lions, buffalos, zebras, and many other animals — an unforgettable experience.
I highly recommend reaching out to Steve or Richard for any safari plans. With their many years of experience, they truly know how to create a once-in-a-lifetime safari adventure.

The guide was extremely prepared and knowledgeable but lunch services were mostly disappointing
Emmanuel gifted us with wonderful days and thanks to him we were able to see wonderful places and checked the list of all animals. He was prepared for any sort of situation ( he drove 12 hours straight in the rain) (was able to fix all technical issues with cars ex tiers etc). The only downside to comment on is the service we received during our picnic lunches. The food was poor and our guide differently from others did not prepare our table nor help us carry the lunch. There was no coffe no drinks etc

Definitely worth it.
The whole trip was great. From the Hotel pick up and drive to Pilanesberg and the game drive itself was also great. Martin was a great driver.

I did a 3.5 day safari to Amboseli, Tsavo West, and Tsavo East, and had a wonderful time.
I had a great experience on my three and a half day safari to three parks. Patrick was very communicative, and my guide Simon went above and beyond to make sure we saw as much as possible. Saw all kinds of animals including lions and cheetahs, and I had really special close observations of elephants. There were countless other zebras, giraffes, buffalo, baboons, all manor of antelope, plus so many more. The landscape alone was breathtaking and worth the trip. Simon knew a ton about the behavior and habits of the animals and shared it all with good humor and patience. It was a truly special experience, all as described in the itinerary, and I would definitely book with Matteo again.
