Budget safari, with a nice crew, awesome safaris and budget Accommodations
3/5

We had a really good time during the safaris. The drivers were really nice. Especially Simon did. a really good job, driving, explaining and some fun moments.
The food was absolutely acceptable for a budget safari. Also the cooks tried to meet our needs, as we had some allergies (worked out 50% of the time).

Some of the lodges we stayed were really budget. Probably still good for tansanian standard on a budget trip, but still a bit less then we expected (windows were not safe at all times, bathrooms not clean …) but Godwill managed to book us into another lodge that suited our needs more.

Also they were really flexible with everything. That made us feel really welcome and good.

The last day we did a coffee tour to a village. The coffee experience was really cool, as we joined them from picking the beans till the brewed coffee. We were just a bit shocked about the „restroom“ which wasn’t really a room at all. But you get a good local kind of view.

So all in all we had a nice budget safari with awesome day trips, safe drives, always enough water and some really Budget overnight stays.

If you don’t expect a mid range hotel, you’ll be good to go with Simon, Godwill and the rest of the crew.

Unforgettable experience with friends. The French-speaking guide Manu was very friendly and welcoming, the driver Isaac was patient with us. The prices were attractive. I thank the whole team, the organization and I highly recommend doing a safari with this agency.

Very well organized everything!
4/5

We had 1 day of safari with Colours Africa Tours and Safaris, and all the organization was very good. They picks us on time, the safari car was excellent and the food include in the safari was very good. I recommend you to go with this tour. The Ngorongoro park, for me is not the best safari to see animals. Next time I will prefer to go to Serengeti or Masai Mara, because on those park you see more animals. But the landscape of Ngorongoro was beautiful, because it is a crater and is very fun how you enter to the park with the safari car and you start to go down the crater.

Excellent Tour for everyone (Especially Vegetarians and Mandarin speaker)
5/5

We recently embarked on an 8-day journey(2024 Ester vacation) organized by Colours Africa Tours. The itinerary included visits to Arusha National Park, Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, and Ngorongoro Crater. Throughout the trip, we were accompanied by two guides, Wofon for the shorter distances and Kindu for the longer stretches, both of whom were excellent. Additionally, our chef Su-i took care of our culinary needs throughout the journey.
I must commend Kindu, our long-distance guide, His ability to speak some Chinese made us feel very connected and comfortable.He even adopted a nickname Chinese name, Xiaolong(小龍)reason from a super actor Bruce Lee. Xiaolong was a cheerful guide, engaging but not verbose. With his eagle eye, he could spot animals from afar. Each morning before our game safari, he would inquire about our preferences for animal sightings and efficiently lead us to observe them, earning the nickname "Eagle Eye 4.0" among our group for his ability to see through disguises. Whether it was a leopard hiding in a tree, lions passing beneath it, or rare sightings like crocodiles and cheetahs, he provided us with exceptional wildlife experiences. Moreover, he was a skilled driver, navigating through muddy terrain during the rainy season without ever slowing our pace. In fact, he even assisted other vehicles in need along the way, showcasing his impressive capabilities.
Su-i, our chef, was indispensable during our journey. Despite having two vegetarians in our group (lacto-vegetaria n& ovo-vegetarian), Su-i's cooking skills remained affected.He was very eager to communicate and fulfill our requests, going above and beyond to deliver exceptional service, also catering to our Asian tastes with great conversation and portions that left us fully satisfied each day. We were initially worried about adjusting to the food, but every meal turned into a delightful surprise, from enjoying vegetarian pizza and lasagne on the savannah to treats like banana cake and popcorn. Especially, Su-i provide us with fresh bread and pancake every morning all hand made. With a perfect team, delicious food, captivating wildlife sightings, and excellent accommodations, our experience was truly exceptional.
Special thanks also go to Nasra for her attentive communication, always patiently addressing our questions and offering helpful suggestions to ease our nerves. She even arranged for us to experience braiding with African hair, adding another memorable aspect to our journey.

A Mesmerizing Journey with Colors Africa Tours: Unveiling the Beauty of Tanzania through SAFAIR
5/5

Embarking on a safari adventure with Colors Africa Tours was nothing short of extraordinary, particularly their remarkable SAFAIR in Tanzania. From the moment we set foot in this enchanting land, every aspect of our journey was meticulously curated, promising an experience that surpassed all expectations.

Under the expert guidance of Mr. Kindu (our guide), our journey unfolded seamlessly, with each moment offering a glimpse into the untamed beauty of Tanzania. Mr. Kindu's extensive knowledge of the region, coupled with his passion for wildlife conservation, added a layer of depth to our adventure that was truly unparalleled. His ability to navigate the terrain effortlessly ensured that we witnessed nature's wonders up close, from the majestic lions of the Serengeti to the graceful elephants of Tarangire.

One cannot speak of our safari experience without mentioning Cholo, the incredibly talented photographer who immortalized our journey through his lens. Cholo's keen eye for detail and artistic vision transformed every moment into a masterpiece, capturing the raw emotion and sheer magnificence of Tanzania's landscapes and wildlife. His photographs serve as cherished memories, allowing us to relive the magic of our safari time and time again.

His unwavering commitment to excellence ensured that every detail was meticulously planned, from the luxurious accommodations to the delectable cuisine that celebrated the flavors of Tanzania. Godlisten’s passion for showcasing the splendor of his homeland shone through, creating an experience that felt not only immersive but also deeply meaningful.

Our SAFAIR with Colors Africa Tours was more than just a journey—it was a transformative experience that awakened our senses and ignited a newfound appreciation for the natural world.

5/5

I've gotta say, Tanzania is seriously set up for tourists, especially around the Serengeti and Ngorongoro areas. I chatted with a bunch of companies and heard from lots of folks who've done safaris with a variety of groups. It seems like as long as you pick a company that's legit and has decent reviews, you're pretty much guaranteed a great safari experience with most of them.

What sets Colours apart, however, is their ability to offer safaris that are not only budget-friendly but also venture into less frequented destinations, like Gombe National Park—an absolutely stellar recommendation and a definite highlight of our East African adventure. The team's flexibility with scheduling and their insightful suggestions greatly enhanced our experience. For instance, when we considered additional days at Lake Manyara National Park, they advised us to explore the southern Serengeti instead. This turned out to be excellent advice, allowing us to witness the spectacular great wildebeest migration—a truly unforgettable spectacle.

In a nutshell, not only is this company super competent and trustworthy, but they were also incredibly helpful in planning our trip. This was a godsend for us first-timers in Tanzania. Totally recommend them.

Excellent Service! The entire experience from start to finish was always 100%!
5/5

From start to finish, the trip was incredible. From the airport pick-up, to the safari and then airport drop-off, everything worked super well and seamlessly! Patience was the best guide and because of him, the safari was an experience we will never forget. He shared with us a lot of history, culture and animals we saw and thanks to him we go home having seen the big five and made memories and experiences we will never forget. His kindness and upbeat energy always made the days in the safari fun! The entire organization worked very well and we never had to worry about anything. The lodges were incredible and so were the game drives! Lunch was always very good as well. We go home with incredible memories and experiences! Thank you to you and the entire team for this incredible safari and organization and a special thank you to Patience, we will never forget it! We can only recommend your company and having Patience as a guide - 5/5 stars! ⭐️

A unique experience in the world of the Serengeti
5/5

We chose Colors because they met our budget expectations, were very flexible with all our requests and always responded quickly, and also offered delicious reusable food. And we were not disappointed! We had an unforgettable tour with an excellent guide who was reserved and yet always present for us. The wildlife, especially in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, and the Great Migration are simply stunning! In February the grass is quite high: nice for big cats (who hide in it) but especially great for a lush, green landscape and rich species diversity! The choice of accommodation was really good. We can really recommend the tour with Colors Africa without reservation!

Lifetime experience
5/5

We went for our honeymoon and we were not disappointed !! We enjoyed every moment! Drivers (Macha, Sadhi and Frederic) were very nice, and we were impressed by there knowledge of the parks and their inhabitants. The cook, Augustin, did wonders also !!
We spend 2 nights in campsites, real wild experience : rudimentary but so worth it!! Being in the savannah, sleeping to the sounds of roars, visited by buffalos, elephants and hyenas!!
The logde we stayed at for the last 2 nights was also very nice , very welcomed deep in the pool, lovely staff and great food !

Godfather has been very nice to us, explaining every step before the adventure begins and taking time to meet after the journey to collect our impression while taking us to the airport.

Overall a great experience we highly recommend Colors of Africa
