Best safari experience
We did a five day safari, which was incredibly well organized from the day we booked it to the end of the tour.
Our guide, Norton, knew everything about the animals. We saw many lions, elephants, hippos, even 3 leopards and a rhino!!! Our cook, Suleman, cooked the nicest food for us. Some other groups only got sandwiches for lunch, but we always got something freshly cooked. Our lodge was very nice and the tents were big. Mattresses and sleeping bags were provided.
All in all we were very happy we chose Colours of Africa. Asante sana!

Made our dreams come true
Colours Africa made our safari dreams come true in Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater. We worked with Hamisi to plan the trip. He is quick to respond, answer all questions, and share his recommendations. Our tour guide, Benjamin, was amazing. He was able to find every animal we wanted to see (even elusive ones like leopards, cheetahs, and rhinos), was a great driver, and fun to be around. The vehicle was clean and spacious, and the accommodations and food that they booked for us were top tier. Highly, highly recommend Colours Africa to anyone visiting Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater! We did a 5 day fly in, drive out safari.

Out of the world experience
My girlfriend and I have always dreamed of doing a safari. There are hundreds of tour companies out there that offer various and similar tours and it is very difficult to determine which offer the best service. Right from the start when I sent my initial enquiry the Colours Africa team were responsive giving me a very customised itinerary. I told the team what I wanted out of the trip they gave a base plan which was modified as time went on. I noticed that they were not the cheapest and not the most expensive ion comparison to my other enquiries but I assure you they are definitely worth paying for.
Unfortunately our luggage was lost by the airline so we arrived in Arusha with no luggage. Colours Africa went to every effort to help us locate it and even offered to have the luggage delivered 2 hours to us in the national park if it turned up. Unfortunately it did not arrive in Arusha until the last day.
We were placed in the hands of Benjamin, our guide and driver for the 5 days and our chef Solomon. Right from the word go Benjamin was very in tune with exactly what we were looking for on the safari. He knew all of the National Parks like the back of his hand and constantly ensured that we were looked after. He made every effort to stay away from the hoards of jeeps whilst still always making sure we saw every animal. We even set him missions (jokingly) to see specific animals which he always completed. He even completed the mission to find us a lion hunt. I would say that Benjamin went out of his way to ensure that we were comfortable and felt looked after and despite the incredibly long hours he worked he always smiled and wanted to joked with us. To finish he even took us to the airport to collect our long lost baggage.
Solomon was the joker of the group. He is a very funny guy and a talented chef. I still miss his early morning pancakes. We were especially keen to try local Tanzanian food which he cooked perfectly but always provided western alternatives. Me being greedy would always eat both. Solomon would always ensure that we were comfortable and well fed.
The safari itself was one of the most incredible things I've experienced. I saw everything that I wanted to see and am thrilled to have spent time in the Serengeti. The facilities are far cleaner than I expected. Having travelled a lot in many countries around the world I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the facilities. The jeep was very comfortable and I was blown away by the sheer number of animals, especially Lions. My tip would be to make sure that you spend 2 nights at least in the Serengeti. It's so vast that you will only scratch the surface by staying a single night. If you can handle roughing it make sure you camp as it offers an extra experience to sleep under the clear Serengeti stars and listen to the wild animals during the night
I would 100% say that Benjamin and Solomon made an incredible experience into something extra special and I'm pleased to call them both my friends after this. If you do choose to do this tour with Colours Africa make sure you request Benjamin and Solomon and make sure you give them a nice tip at the end as they both deserve it.
Thank you to the whole Colours Africa team

just perfect!!!
When you start looking at safaris... doubts begin which agency will be the best? Will they be serious and meet your expectations and with their word? .. and the truth was that it was a complete success. From the first day they resolved my doubts, anything I asked they wrote to me at the moment to solve them, a great professional from the beginning to the end. They have made my trip perfect. He made me feel at home, being so far away and not knowing what would happen... he complied with everything agreed and more since he solved a problem with the room last night. He picked me up and changed me to another hotel where I was great. all kindness and excellent treatment! The guides are also super professional, being able to see a multitude of animals and experience wonderful moments. just thanks for everything. If you have any doubt about which company to choose, choose them! I will recommend it to my relatives!

Perfect Safari Experience
Our safari with Colours Africa was excellent!
Communication with Godlisten along the way was excellent, and he was responding very quickly and solving any issue that appeared.
Benjamin, our guide, was knowledgeable and did anything in his powers to help make our experience unforgettable. He was spotting animals for us and knew all about them and their habits.
Sulle arranged all about our camping gear and he was cooking fresh, hot meals every day.
All in all it was an excellent experience, and I would easily recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari in Tanzania

Excelent Safari Tour
It has been the only Safari I have done in my life and it was an unforgettable experience.
The treatment we had could not have been better. Both guide and food.
They were 4 days in which I would not change anything. I felt very comfortable at all times and it far exceeded my expectations.
Benjamin and Babatao were our personal guide and chef and I want to thank them for everything they did for us. We learned many things with them and we had a really good time.

PERFECT! 100% recommendable, just perfect.
Completely amazing!! Just perfect! 100% recommendable to do it wit Colour Africa Tours if your thinking in about doing a safari. Their human team is extraordinary! The person who manage the booking, the transfer guy, the guide and the cooker, all are amazing people and were very very kind with us!
It was our first time in Africa and they helped us a lot, even with things non-related to the safari (flights, visa, money exchange, hotels…). They were there anytime. The organisation and the planning of the trip is perfect to see the most important national parks, and we were lucky to see the big 5!!
The guide Benjamin knows how to move around and get the best spot to see the animals, his knowledge about them is huge. He always respected the environment and was with a permanent big smile in his face. We couldn’t imagine a better guide! The cook of Baba Tao was extraordinary, very good local food and don’t worry, you won’t be hungry with them!
The lodges and campings were surrounded by nature. The night in Serengeti we heard lions during the night, and we saw them close to the camping in the morning, it was breathtaking!!
A perfect company for a perfect first experience in Africa. We will be back someday and undoubtedly we will do it with them for sure!

Perfect safari with perfect people
Jambo!
When I decided to come to Tanzania to do a Safari with a company I searched and compares different companies and finally chose Colours Africa Tours & Safaris...Was a great decision!
Since we arrived everyone's hospitality amazed me, they always looking for you and your welfare.
Benjamin was our guide, he is a top 1 guide! Good person, funny, and with a really good knowledge of the territory. He managed to show us all the big 5, even the leopard and the rhino!!! I don't want to forgot his skills as photographer, with the binoculars and the phone he made me perfect photos of the big 5
Apart from Benjamin we had with us Babatao, the chef, the stomach engineer along the 4 days of the safari. He is another 10/10 person. Preparing for us delicious breakfast at 5 am to start our safari with energy and also being ready to cook us the lunch and the dinner to match the schedule perfectly. I cant say a meal that I didn't enjoy, everything was perfect, he even prepared for us spanish tortilla the last day (a dish from my country).
Well, apart from that 2 great persons I can say that everyone of this company is amazing like for example Oen, our driver from the airport to the safari zone.
I just can say asante sana for making my trip a perfect trip ♥️
