5+ star operator
Colors Africa will be your best choice if you would like to have a 5plus star Safari experience in Tanzania. Let me give a short brief about them and their services:
Contact and negotiation:
They are really friendly and you can reach them via eg. WhatsApp almost all the day. There was really a lot questions from me, but they always answered with a friendly style. If you are searching for the most correct safari company, then they will be your choice!
Airport pick-up and drop-off:
Our shuttle started in time always, we never had to wait.
Safari driver:
Best driver ever. He could speak english really good, he was funny, and he was for us. Always found the best spots for stalking the animals. Also he is a really focused and good driver, so we were in safe in all the time.
Accomodation and food:
If you are in a safari then you should not expect a hotel or something, because this is an adventure and not a leisure time. So according to this, every accomodation was really good, comfortable, safe and fun. Simba camping has an incredible atmosphere, you should try that! The food was perfect and colorful (I mean varied and wide range of types), what is unbeliveable in the middle in nowhere! And the chef…he is a really reliable and funny guy! I could learn a lot of words and expressions from him!
Safari experience in all:
This kind of adventure what they could create for us is really a 5 star and lifelong experience. They are kind and reliable, I have a personal relationship with the manager Godlisten, who is a really correct, funny and reliable person, he organized the perfect honeymoon experience for us.
All in all, I should say thank you for this unforgetable 5+ star safari service what the Colors Africa could provide to us.
Outstanding service, lifetime experience, highly recommended
We chose a 3 day safari trip, Day 1: Tarangire National Park, Day 2: Ngorongoro Crater, Day 3: Lake Manyara National Park. Simon was assigned our guide for all 3 days and we stayed overnight at Twiga lodge. We were greeted warmly by Godlisten at Arusha airport and met at the end of our trip (and dropped off at the airport). All parks were very different and each well worth a trip to, however it was the people that made the trip so amazing!
SIMON is an amazing 5* guide, not only is his subject knowledge excellent and totally up to date, but his knowledge and his interest extends beyond the safari animals to all of the surrounding nature. Theres rarely a question he cannot answer - and believe me we asked loads. When uncertain, he has the humility to admit that he doesn’t know and will research into it, returning quickly with an answer.
His genuine total respect for the animals and indeed the whole environment is impressive! What stands out most is his enthusiasm, sense of humour, love of the animals (they come first) and genuine love of his own profession.
We were treated like royalty by all staff, at Twiga Lodge, and they were so genuinely nice people. Rooms are clean - nice shower, clean sheets and towels - just what you want. We had been on safari all day. It was lovely to be greeted by the receptionist JACQUELINE, who showed us around. It was lovely to see the welcoming swimming pool and even nicer to be assigned our very own chef for the evening - FAUSTINE SONGA . The food was perfect, he cooked us the best soup we have both ever tasted / pumpkin soup, WOW! It is impossible (and we tired) to find a better Hotel to stay. Great hotel, excellent staff who are genuine and down to earth providing the best service, making you feel special! Give me Twiga (giraffe) lodge any day - just like the giraffe, they reach the highest standards.
Godlisten/ Colours Africa provide an exceptional service for a very reasonable price! We would unreservedly recommend them! 5*

Great experience and very friendly and helpful people
I had a great experience arranged by Colours Africa Tours. Godlisten and his team are wonderful and make sure that your tour with them becomes really enjoyable. Our guide and driver Fred was very knowledgeable and a fun person to be around with. The day trek to Mandara Huts at the foothills of Kilimanjaro was the prefect end to a wonderful tour.

The Best Tour Company in Tanzania
The best, most reliable and professional tour company in Tanzania! Reasons that I highly recommend using their service to explore the beauty of Tanzania:
1. High quality service ranging from budget to high-end travelers
2. Flexibility based your plans, allowing you to customize your trip. We requested no shopping, skipping breakfast to have more time for the game drives and early starts and late ends. No problem at all! The guide will stop wherever you want for you yo take pictures.
3. Always on time. Whatever time we arranged for pick up and drop off at the airport, hotels, game drive, meal times, they are always sharp on time! Not even late for one minute!
4. Super professional to find the best animals. On safari, the most important thing is to see animals. But everyone know it depends on the luck. But with a professional guide with sharp eyes, it greatly increases your chance to see the best animals. We saw the Big Five plus cheetahs during our trip. Not just once, we saw them almost everyday! Our guide talked to other guides via radio (which most of the tour companies do) but also knew where to locate the wildlife at their secret spots! We often spotted the animals first and got the best pictures, while the other tour groups rushed over but the animals would be walking further away.
5. Reliability. Finding a tour company in Africa and have to pay a partial deposit before the trip is kind of scary. But this company is 100% trustworthy. Do not worry about your money. On our first day when we were about to enter Ngorongoro there was a problem with the bank transaction and the tickets didn’t go through. The tour company owner asked me if I could pay first and he would pay me back later. I wasn’t too happy about it as it was over $500 USD but two days later the owner spent three hours on the road from Arusha to Karatu and returned my money in person and apologized again!! Which company owner can do this? You can know how realizable they are and trust them.
6. Food. During our trip, the meal prepared by the chef was just amazing. Super delicious! In safari, we can have hot soup, two main courses, salad and one dessert. It’s just amazing.
7. The cost, we stayed in a budget accommodation, but I really like it, very clean and it just located in the central Serengeti area. Totally worth the price. And the whole trip cost is the most reasonable one among other 10+ companies I compared.
8. Immediately response for any questions. It’s very difficult to find the information online especially for Africa trip. I added the WhatsApp of the owner, he answered all my questions in detailed. We back and forth so many messages about the parks, transportation, accommodation. I can get my answer within few hours even though there are time difference between Tanzania and US.
After all the above reasons, I am not why you would still want to find another tour company. :) I truly highly recommend using Colours Africa Tour for your trip to Tanzania. They will give you an unforgettable experience just like we had.

The most recommended travel agency in Tanzania
We are a self-guided traveler to Africa to find a trustworthy, good quality, fair price, and can meet all the customized itineraries we want. Colours is definitely the only choice! I compared more than 20 rooms, only this one gave me the best price and gave me a detailed answer. This five-day itinerary is super unforgettable! I made my own arrangements to pick us up from the airport to the daily They are completely on time for the itinerary! Super professional, flying here for a long time is to see the best animals, you will not be disappointed, they know where the best animals are, we have seen all five animals, and the guide has eyesight Super good, every time we see it first, we are super close to the best angle, and then the other tour groups rush over, but the animals have gone far. The food is so good that there is nothing to say, the chef's craftsmanship is super, in You can eat three dishes, one soup and super powerful desserts on the African grassland. You don't need to stay in a five-star hotel, just follow Colours! If you want to come to Tanzania, add Colour's WhatsApp and they will answer all questions immediately and no matter what The day and night are super amazing. You have to choose a travel agency and pay a little deposit first. Everyone will be a little scared, but this is a company you can absolutely trust! One day, because their domestic bank payment failed, I needed to pay by card first. I was a little unhappy with the tickets. The boss said don't worry, he will definitely pay me back. As a result, the boss took a car from Arusha for more than three hours to Karatu in two days. Give me the money, but he has to come in person, which travel agency has such a service, so everyone can absolutely trust their service in the future!

Everything I could’ve wanted
Just returned from a life-changing safari with the team from Colours Africa. I planned my trip on very short notice and they were incredibly helpful, totally flexible, and reliably communicative. As a solo traveler, I took a lot of comfort in knowing that Colours was there to assist as needed with any changes I wanted to make during my trip: lodging, flight schedules, add-ons. Having that support on the ground is key.
The safari itself was incredible. Delicious food, knowledgeable guides, and more animals than I could’ve imagined. Colours Africa also did a particularly excellent job assembling a group of like-minded travelers for our adventure, which was really impressive. They literally did their research to make sure I was being put with people I’d likely get along with — which wasn’t something I’d requested or mentioned, Colours is just thoughtful like that. It made a memorable experience that much more special.

Excellent
We had an amazing experience travelling on Safari with the Colours of Africa team, and especially our guide Emanuel.
They we’re super easy to comminicate with from the beginning, and answered all our questions and requests.
We were very well talken care of through the entire safari. Our chef also made great food.
During our four days, visiting Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti we saw all the big five, plus many more. Many of the animal views were really spectacular, much thanks to our guide.
Would definitivt recommend choosing Colours pf Africa for your Safari experience!
We would do it again.

BEST safari in tanzania, totally recommend it!!!
From the very beginning, Godlisten established great communication with us to make sure that our safari was properly arranged. Everything from the quality of the car to the food and accommodation surpassed our expectations. Our guide Freddie was very knowledgeable and spotted all kinds of animals from a distance. Thanks to him we were able to see giraffes, elephants, rhinos, zebras, hippos, hyenas, etc and lions (right next to our car!!). The service was impeccable, they took great care of me and my best friend. Totally recommend booking this 2-day safari (or any other activity) with Colours Africa Tours and Safaris.
