An unforgettable experience
5/5

We had the most magical time with Gosheni and our wonderful guide Ombeni. He did everything in his power to ensure our experience was as good as it could be, from his skillful driving, to his insanely sharp eagle eye and sharing his deep knowledge of all of the different wildlife. We would highly recommend Gosheni and Ombeni for any future safaris!

Surreal, incredible, breathtaking!
5/5

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!
5/5

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!!!!✨

A dream come true.
5/5

The safari experience was simply perfect.
Stephen, in addition to being a very professional and truly knowledgeable guide, is also an extraordinarily kind, generous, and welcoming person. It’s clear that he loves his country, his land, and his job, and he does everything possible to make the vacation unforgettable.
He speaks several languages well, knows all the animals of the savannah, and the secrets of Tanzania.
We couldn’t have wished for a better guide.

Khalifa follows his own path and became one with Masai Mara.
5/5

Amazing Safari! We had a great time in Masai Mara, a wonderful national reserve, and Khalifa was a great, experienced and funny guide!
Soon we realized, that Khalifa was very experienced in doing Safaris and showed us the best spots to see the beautiful wildlife of Masai Mara. He followed his own path, away from big groups of jeeps, what we enjoyed very much. Nevertheless, he provided us with epic views, much information and all Masai Mara could offer. Khalifa tries to show you as much as possible and drives his jeep to the best locations, also for taking photos. I can highly recommend chossing Khalifa as your guide. Asante Khalifa!
