Helpful and kind
5/5

We chose Colors Africa as the local agency for our trip to Tanzania, and we couldn't have made a better choice! From the beginning, the organization was impeccable.

The trip was a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. The safaris gave us unique emotions: we were lucky enough to see many animals, including all the "Big Five", in breathtaking landscapes. Our guide: Kindu was very good and helpful; he told us a lot of very interesting details about what we saw. Kindu, in addition to being very knowledgeable, enriching each experience with fascinating stories and details about the local fauna and culture, was also very kind and friendly with us, making it a pleasure to share our days with him.
An excellent conclusion, a little different from the rest of the holiday, was the excursion to the waterfalls on the last day: a magical place that left us speechless, perfect for ending the trip with an indelible memory. After the walk to the waterfall we also participated in an interesting workshop for the creation of coffee!!

Even the logistical details (transport, accommodations, meals) were organized in an optimal way, ensuring a carefree vacation.

I highly recommend Colors Africa to anyone thinking of traveling to Tanzania. 🌍🦁✨

Professional local operator w/ responsive service, great guides, & excellent value for a top safari
5/5

We just completed a 6-night, 7-day private safari with Colours Africa Tours, and the experience exceeded all expectations. From the very beginning, working with Nasra, our sales contact, was a pleasure. Her responsiveness and attention to detail through WhatsApp made planning effortless, and she readily adjusted our itinerary to perfectly match our preferences.

We're happy with the decision to choose a local Arusha-based tour operator, as it offered exceptional value for the experience. The accommodations at tented camps within the national parks were fantastic, immersing us in the natural beauty of the parks.

Our guide, Norton, was a highlight for us. He was the perfect addition to our small group. His expertise and intuition led us to some incredibly rare and special wildlife sightings. What impressed us most was his ability to anticipate animal movements and position the vehicle for optimal viewing angles, even during popular sightings where multiple vehicles were present.

Norton's vehicle was impeccably maintained, clean, and comfortable, making our long days of game drives a pleasure. His knowledge of the area's wildlife and ecosystems was impressive, but it was his good-natured personality and sense of humor that really made the experience special. We shared many laughs throughout the journey, and he added a lot to our overall experience.

We visited the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park (where we did a walking safari and a night drive, we highly recommend both). Each location offered unique and incredible experiences. Norton's expertise enhanced every moment of wildlife viewing, ensuring we got the most out of each location.

Thanks to Colours Africa and Norton, we saw some truly unforgettable and rare wildlife moments. This trip exceeded our expectations in every way. We wholeheartedly recommend Colours Africa Tours and Safari (and Norton!) to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. It was truly a trip of a lifetime!

memories for life
5/5

We had a wonderful time with our guide Walter and our
cook Souley, both were just perfect and caring.
They did much more than expected, Walter is as good a driver as a guide
to find out animals, including the rarest of all, a rhino.
Lots of lions, elephants, giraffes, etc, etc.
Souley made a very good cuisine and out of this world crepes, even
better than in Brittany, the home of crepes!!
And much more, they are very friendly.
Congratulations to Colours Africa Tours for the no-fault holidays we could enjoy.

My husband & i have recently returned from our once in a lifetime holiday! Being in our 60s & after extensive research on tour companys we decided to use Colours Africa. We were not disappointed! The whole trip exceeded our expectations! Right from our first contact they have been incredible & put our minds at ease. Queries were responed to immediately & the whole trip was flawless! The lovely camps, the amazing quality of meals & a super comfortable jeep. The MD himself came to greet us on aur arrival which was very reassuring. Nasra has been incredible always replying to our queries immediately. A special thank you to our guide Benjemin! He was superb! So so knowledgeable, professional polite & an exceptional driver! He made our safari all the more special & we learnt so much from him. Always smiling & helpful! We got to experience everything on this safari thanks to Benjemin & his extensive knowledge. If your thinking of booking a safari dont hesitate!
Colours Africa will not disappoint! We had the best experience of our life & are planning to return!
Thank you Colours Africa for the wonderful experience & life long memories.

Benjamin was informative and took amazing pictures and videos with my binoculars and iPhone.
5/5

Our safari with Colours Africa Tours was amazing and our guide (Benjamin) was the best. He was informative, had a great eye seeing animals and took incredible pictures/videos with my binoculars and iPhone. We saw 4 of the big 5, with only the rhino that we didn’t see. Except for our first night lodging (a bad smell from the swampy location), the glamping sights were nice and all the workers were super friendly and helpful. I’d enthusiastically recommend CAT to any of my friends who were going to Tanzania on safari.

The most amazing experience
5/5

We booked a 6-day private safari with Colours Africa for our honeymoon and it was the best part of our stay in Tanzania. Everything was very well organized, we just had to know what time to be ready in the morning and they took care of all the rest.

The lodges they picked for us were a dream, so beautiful, very clean and with very nice staff. All meals are included and the food is great, we loved that it was always local dishes. We'd have lunch at the conservation area everyday, the driver would have a picnic prepared and we liked that he never used disposable containers.

Last but not least, our driver, Benjamin, was just the best! spending a full week with him, we were afraid it would be awkward, but he is so nice and so much fun. He told us many intersting facts about animals and Tanzania, he is very experienced in game drive and knows the roads within the parks as the palm of his hand.

Thank you for making such a special life experience happen. We totally recommend them and they're totally reliable for organizing such kind of activity from abroad.

Fantastic experience in Tanzania
5/5

We had a fantastic experience with Colours Africa Tours. From the moment they picked us up at the airport in Zanzibar, to our trip to Arusha and the safari, everything was done perfectly. They were very punctual at the scheduled times and the staff who attended to us were always friendly and helpful. We had a tour within our budget with good food, quality hotels in both Zanzibar and on the safari, and very good service. A reliable company.

They are well organized!!
5/5

We had a 2-days safari tour and 1 day through the City of Arusha.
The Safari was very nice and well organized. We even saw Rhinos and a Babyrhino which is very rare.
The third and last day we had a tour around Arusha with Allan (Guide). He took us up from the hotel and we spent the day with him. We talked much, he told us many things about Arusha, the tanzanite and the mining etc.. He is a guide who knows how to do his job and has much much Knowledge. He answered to every question i made and could explain me everything. He even explained me everything about the coffee with the beans and leaves ( see the pictures). He speaks english very well.
We even went for a coffee, talked and laughed together like friends and that makes the atmosphere even better.
All the guides were good but he was special.
I would recommend everyone to ask for Allan as a guide if they want to have an informative and unforgetable experience.
