We were very satisfied with Kibo
Our 4 day experience was authentic and memorable. We felt raw and real, far from touristy. We felt very safe with Kibo Mawenzi Safaris team. Their team management system was very nice and they were very helpful. We recommend them. We really enjoy nature, and unforgettable wildlife encounters, this safari delivers beyond expectations

Great experience - above expectations
Our tour in Tanzania with SunUp was great. Richard our guide is experienced, very punctual and professional and cares deeply about finding amazing animals in Safaris. For instance in Serengeti, he spotted a Serval Cat which is notoriously elusive and rare, one of our bucket list animals. The management of the tour was super clear and Chris who organized for me is very responsive helpful and nice. All lodges / hotels were nice and beautiful. We had the very best time. I highly recommend the company and Richard to have the best possible trip in Tanzania’s Northern Circuit. 5 stars very well deserved! Thank you guys.

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.

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.

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.

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.
