The best safari in Tanzania with the best guide Samir - We have just completed an extraordinary safari in Tanzania, thanks to our amazing guide, Samir. We explored Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu, and the Ngorongoro Crater, experiencing an unforgettable adventure.
From day one, Samir proved to be extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and well-organized. Thanks to his expertise and ability to read the terrain, we were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five—an absolutely thrilling experience! He never stuck to the usual routes but confidently ventured deeper to give us the best wildlife viewing opportunities, always respecting nature and the animals.
His deep knowledge of the local fauna and flora enriched our journey with fascinating insights and detailed explanations. Additionally, his professionalism and kindness made the experience even more enjoyable.
If you’re looking for a well-organized safari and a passionate guide who will make you experience the true magic of Tanzania, Samir is the perfect choice! Highly recommended!

Best experience with Samir! - We had the best Safari thanks to our guide, Samir! He can see all the animals, even from a long distance. He is always very kind and tell us very interesting stories about lions and other animals. Thanks to him we saw all the big 5 and many others. Thanks, Samir!

Choose the guide with attention - Everything perfect! I travelled with my girlfriend and another couple of friend. The suv was big and comfortable, the organization of the tour was great.
But the key of our enjoyment was our guide: Samir. He spotted all the big 5 with experience and proactivity, taking off road shortcuts and hidden roads.
Strongly recommended

Amazing safari with gosheni and guide Albert - I've seen a lot of wildlife, it's fantastic! The Albert service was fantastic! The Wild Luxury Hotel is also very good, sleeps well, listens to birds singing every day, wakes up in the morning to see wildebeest and zebras eating grass next to our tent, the waiter service there is also attentive, good to eat and drink, elephants, giraffes, cheetahs, and saw wildebeest giving birth, great!

Experience of a lifetime - A well-planned, well managed trip by Gosheni. We went as a family of 4 from the U.S., including two young kids.
Michael, our guide, was fantastic. He went above and beyond in all aspects - safety, comfort, game drives.
We had a customized itinerary to match our timings and preferences. Marlene did a great job with this.
Highly recommend Gosheni for any of your Tanzania travels. Ask for Michael to accompany you on your safaris.

Karibu Tanzania - We have done a 5 days / 6 days Safari, all inclusive, with Luxury lodges between Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Central and Northern Serengeti. It has been the best experience of our lives.
We chose Gosheni based on the reviews here and we are very happy we did. Marline helped us organising the whole trip and she's been a wonderful support in the months before arriving in Tanzania. She suggested a few lodges based on what we wanted to do - making our way to the north of Serengeti by car to witness the spectacular Great Migration. After a few iterations, we choose the lodges and camps and they were all simply fabulous.
We landed in Kilimangiaro from London and our driver/safari guide Samir was waiting for us there. After a quick pit stop at the agency, we started driving to Lake Manyara, where we spent the afternoon. Good start of the safari! We even had the time to go to the Tanzanite shop. We spent the night at the Heart & Soul Lodge Manyara - amazing place.
We spent the second day exploring the Ngorongoro crater, which is probably one of the most beautiful places on earth. Samir patiently drove the entire day around the crater to look for wildlife and gave us some unforgettable memories. We spent the night in the Ngorongoro Farmhouse where we learnt their coffee and vegetables/fruits production.
On day 3 we made our way to Central Serengeti by car. Samir is simply an amazing driver! We did a game drive on the way there and we spent a good 6 hours in Serengeti where we got the chance to see all the big cats. We even saw the cutest little leopard cub which melted our hearths. We spent the night at the Acacia Luxury Lodge in Seronera.
We woke up and after another game drive in central Serengeti Samir started driving north post lunch. After almost 4 hours we arrived near the Mara river. The landscape is completely different here, much greener. We did one last game drive and then we headed to the Karibu Luxury Lodge, where we spent the next 2 nights. Stunning place surrounded by the savanna and animals.
Next day we woke up super early and we drove to the Mara river. After a bit we get the chance to witness to the Great Migration. There are no words to describe it. We spent the morning there and we managed to see 6 crossing in totals!!! Samir was very experienced and could tell which herd looked like was about to cross or not. We spent the afternoon exploring the park nearby and we saw all sorts of animals, including lions.
On the last day, another early wake up call to make the most of our time there and after a 2 hours game drive we headed to Kogatende airstrp where our trip with Gosheni finished.
I cannot thank enough both Marline and Samir for these days. They made our 1 year anniversary trip truly memorable. Asante Sana!

Beyond expectations! - Edward Masaki our guide has many years of experience and it showed! Whether it was picking all the right spots, spotting birds and animals in the distance and explaining their behaviors he was excellent. He knows the roads like the back of his hand and he was great at maneuvering the challenging terrain.
The Gosheni safaris are a very reliable company. It was recommended to me by a friend who traveled with them a few years ago and I will recommend it without any hesitation. All the accommodations were top notch. The itinerary was well planned to minimize travel time.
Of course the safari, the scenery and the animals were magnificent!

Anniversary visit to Terengire, Serengeti and Nogorongoro crater - We chose Gosheni after a lot of homework and checking reviews and we were not disappointed!
They are incredibly professional, clear in their communication and planned our required itinerary superbly.
Our guide Hassan bears mention. His energy and enthusiasm kept our spirits up. He is an encyclopaedia of knowledge about all the animals and birds and additionally shared a lot of information on local culture, politics, customs, tribes and folklore. His humour kept us entertained throughout and despite it being the wet season with lower chances of seeing the animals... We saw everything! He's very enterprising and a great tracker and guide.
Would also like to mention that we had a pretty serious breakdown (something to do with the steering wheel... A rod came unattached from the wheels... Can't explain more cause I'm mechanically challenged) and he fixed the whole thing himself in 30mins!

Perfect 5 day safari experience with George and GoSheni team - We are a group of 20 from China and it was a very right decision we made to choose GoSheni for the whole five day safari in Tanzania. We were picked up at Kilimanjaro airport with a very unique welcome ceremony to begin with, and all five days trip we were taken good care by our guide George. George was always helpful to let us know everything we need to and curious about, and was relentlessly to find us the best spots to capture animals on our wish list! Thank you George and the team. I’m sure some others from my group would give the same high ratings to George’s team mates, Albert, Bariki and Steve! Gosheni is highly recommended.
