An Awesome Company That Knows the Importance of Good Communication
5/5

We, two couples, just returned home from an amazing 3 week safari and cultural trip with Colours of Africa Tours and Safaris. What a fantastic group of local (Arusha) tour guides and drivers! We certainly made a good choice when planning the trip through this company. In fact, before going we wondered if this company was for real. They were so good!

Pius, a salesman for the company, was especially good - polite, communicative and patient. We worked together through 14 itineraries until we had the trip that we wanted that included seeing animals and birds as well as visiting local tribes and having a varied experience. A lot to ask for but Pius came through with a perfect custom-made itinerary for us.

Due to the political unrest in Tanzania during their elections, our flight was cancelled and Godlissen, an owner of the company, suggested that we go to Nairobi. We did and were met by Paul, another Colours of Africa employee who helped us with a plan for our time in Kenya.

The political situation quieted down and two drivers drove us to Arusha to start our original tour there. We were so well taken care of!

Our guide/driver Norton was the best for us. He is a caring man who knows his animals and birds and is a safe driver. He just seemed to know how to make us comfortable and happy. He was with us for two full weeks as we made our way through the National Parks and Conservations areas.

We also had several local guides who took us on walking safaris and into villages and translated for us. Everyone one of them had interesting things to tell us and made sure that we were safe.

Colours of Africa also arranged for our flights, hotels and transfers to Zanzibar and then on to Nairobi. We were well taken care of. They are excellent communicators which was very reassuring.

Kudos to Colours of Africa Tours and Safaris for a job well done!

An excellent Tanzania based company
5/5

We had a wonderful 2 week safari with Colours of Africa in Northern Tanzania. In spite of challenging circumstances (beyond their control) Colours cleared every hurdle to provide us with an amazing, safe and comfortable trip. Our guide, Norton, was a great fit for our group of 4 and was very thoughtful to make the trip exactly as we wanted. He is a great spotter (or wildlife and birds) and stopped whenever we wanted for whatever reason. The food was great, the accommodations good and as described, and the wildlife viewing extraordinary. We felt their price price to be reasonable compared to other companies. We do HIGHLY recommend Colours of Africa for you Tanzania safari. We also had occasion to work with the Kenya team briefly and they were also great.

The Best Safari Experience - Authentic, Professional, and Truly Caring
5/5

I cannot recommend Colours of Africa enough - their services were impeccable from start to finish! They arranged an incredible journey for us, carefully considering all our suggestions while ensuring the logistics made sense every step of the way.
The highlight was their recommendation to visit the Hadzabe and Datoga tribes - hands down the best cultural experience we've ever had. It felt completely authentic and fascinating, never staged, offering us a truly unique perspective on life.
We chose an itinerary spanning two countries - Kenya and Tanzania - which they coordinated flawlessly. Our Kenyan driver, Victor, is an amazing guide with the eye of an eagle, spotting animals from incredible distances and knowing exactly where to find the action. In Tanzania, Derek was super calm, prioritizing safety and our wellbeing above everything else. He's a fun person to travel with and did an excellent job tracking wildlife. The peak of our trip was witnessing the great migration - another fantastic suggestion from him!
Throughout everything, Hatibu was absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, he went above and beyond to craft the best offer, secure the accommodations we requested, and provide all necessary documents for our Kenya ETA. What impressed me most was his availability - he responded to every WhatsApp message within 5 minutes, 24/7, no matter the question or request. Even more touching, he actually checked in after our trip to make sure we arrived home safely! I've traveled with agencies in different countries, but no one has ever shown that level of care.
All in all, the people at Colours of Africa are exceptional, the service is outstanding and we had an incredible journey with them!
