An Unforgettable East Africa Journey with Colours Africa
I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Colours Africa Tours throughout my East Africa trip, including my safari in Tanzania, gorilla trekking in Rwanda, as well as all the accommodation, airport transfers and regional flight arrangements in between.
What impressed me most was how comprehensive and reliable their service was. They are not limited to traditional safari tours — they were able to coordinate everything from Tanzania safari experiences to Rwanda gorilla trekking, hotels, transfers and flights within Africa. Having one team manage such a diversified itinerary made the whole journey much easier and more seamless.
Throughout the trip, every change, update and adjustment was communicated to me very promptly. Travelling across several destinations in Africa can involve a lot of moving parts, but I always felt that everything was well organised and taken care of. Their responsiveness and attention to detail gave me a lot of confidence, especially when plans needed to be adjusted along the way.
The entire trip was organised extremely well from beginning to end, and I am very grateful to the team for making such a memorable journey possible.
I would definitely recommend Colours Africa Tours to friends who are planning to travel in East Africa, particularly anyone looking for a company that can arrange not only safaris, but also gorilla trekking and a complete end-to-end travel itinerary.
I would happily travel with them again, and hopefully next time I will be bringing more of my family back to Africa with me.

Exceptional Safari Experience from Start to Finish
We had an amazing 11-day safari with Colours Africa Tours! Everything was well organized, from the airport transfers to the Kenya-Tanzania border transfer. The logistics were seamless throughout the trip.
Our safari guides, Dickson, Benson, and Richard, were experienced and knowledgeable. Thanks to them, we saw an incredible variety of wildlife in the different national parks.
We also appreciated the team's flexibility in accommodating our last-minute request to visit the Kenya National Museum and enjoy dinner at the Carnivore Restaurant on our final day in Nairobi. It was the perfect ending to an unforgettable trip.
Highly recommend Colours Africa Tours to anyone planning a safari in Kenya and Tanzania!
Exceptional 11-Day Kenya and Tanzania Safari with Seamless, Personalized Service
Our 11-day journey through Kenya and Tanzania with Colours Africa Tours was truly exceptional. From our arrival to our departure, the entire trip was carefully coordinated, allowing us to relax and enjoy every part of the experience without worrying about transportation, reservations, or other arrangements.
During the trip, five different drivers assisted us with airport pickups, safari transportation, and the border crossing between Kenya and Tanzania. Each transition was handled professionally, and everything connected smoothly from one destination to the next.
Our safari guides—Dickson, Benson, and Richard—were fantastic. Their knowledge, experience, and dedication made a huge difference throughout the trip. They always did their best to position us for great wildlife sightings, and we were fortunate to see an incredible range of animals in several national parks, including many unforgettable encounters at very close distances.
Another thing we greatly appreciated was how much the company handled on our behalf. They personally arranged the bookings for our accommodations, transportation, and attractions, so we did not have to contact different places or manage the reservations ourselves. Once everything was confirmed, we simply made the required payments and followed the itinerary.
The team was also extremely accommodating when we decided to make a last-minute change on our final day in Nairobi. They helped arrange a visit to the Kenya National Museum, followed by dinner at the Carnivore Restaurant. This additional final-day tour was not part of our original itinerary, yet Colours Africa Tours did not charge us any extra agency or arrangement fee. We only paid the actual costs of the attractions and activities, while their team took care of organizing the bookings for us.
That final day became a wonderful conclusion to an already remarkable adventure. We are very grateful to everyone at Colours Africa Tours for their excellent service, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality. We would gladly recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Kenya and Tanzania.

It is a very amazing safari trip!
We had a great 8-day safari in Kenya and Tanzania! Everything was well organized, from the accommodations and transfers to the daily game drives. Our guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and amazing at spotting wildlife—we were lucky enough to see the Big Five! Thank you for making this a truly memorable trip.
Perfect journey, dreams came true!!!
Amazing trip with Colours Africa! Our guide Kindu (小龙 in Chinese) is the best!

Professional and kind
We spent 2 weeks between Kenya and Tanzania and we could not have asked more from colours Africa. All guides were knowledgeable, punctual and very kind to us and our 3 kids.
Special mention to Isaac, our guide in Tanzania who really killed himself finding us one last leopard at 6pm even though he was driving since 6 am and thrived throughout the trip to get us the max out of our trip.
One thing I would change if I had to do it again is checking where the hotels were compared to the center of the parks because this quicky adds 2 hours of driving to your day. Now, most likely prime locations were out of budget or sold out, which is not on colours Africa but if/when I come back this will be my highest priority.

Everything was organized perfectly, and we experienced no glitches throughout the entire trip. A special thank you to @Jemesina for her outstanding planning and coordination. Her dedication and support played a huge role in making our adventure so memorable. And to our guides, @Marcel in Kenya and @Ezekiel in Tanzania, were absolutely amazing. They were knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about wildlife. They went above and beyond to make our safari experiences special, helping us discover incredible animals, beautiful landscapes, and unforgettable moments.
Thanks to this wonderful team, our trip was truly outstanding. The memories we created will stay with us forever. We highly recommend Colors of Africa to anyone planning an African safari.

Basic Info
Travel Dates: July 11 – July 18
Itinerary: Nairobi → Arusha → Lake Natron → Northern Serengeti → Central Serengeti → Ngorongoro Crater → Arusha → Amboseli → Nairobi
Booking Experience 🧾
I reached out to the tour operator via WhatsApp for quotations starting back in January. We held multiple follow-up meetings to finalize the itinerary. Their customer service was responsive, usually replying within an hour.
Initially our return flight was scheduled to depart from Kilimanjaro Airport, but Qatar Airways cancelled the direct flight. We had to refund all original tickets and rebook China Southern Airlines flights, which added an extra day to our trip. We maintained consistent, proactive communication with the local ground agent to update all arrangements throughout the process. In the end, this complex cross-border safari ran flawlessly with zero itinerary disruptions.
Accommodation 🏨
Overall, the mid-range camps and lodges we stayed at exceeded expectations.
Our main base in Serengeti was Serengeti Classic View Camp: the northern branch operates as a seasonal mobile tented camp, while the central site is permanent. Meals and lodging were perfectly adequate, and the food was surprisingly delicious—far better than we anticipated. There were barely any bugs around the tents. Zebras and giraffes would casually graze right outside our door every day. Falling asleep each night to the distant roars of lions and eerie cackles of hyenas was such an unforgettable thrill.
Complimentary daily laundry service was provided; simply leave your dirty clothes in the woven basket outside your tent.
Safari Vehicle 🚗
Brand-new Toyota Land Cruiser fitted with air conditioning, in excellent condition. The vehicle was stocked with white wine, beer and assorted soft drinks. One minor downside: charging ports were not available at every seat, and the AC barely blew cold air when driving over bumpy washboard dirt roads.
Tour Guides 🙋♂️
Tanzania Side
Our guide Daniel stood out—he was fair-skinned, nothing like a typical local Tanzanian. My mum and two aunties kept complimenting his good looks nonstop, leaving him utterly embarrassed. He was easily the best-dressed and most handsome guide among all the safari crews we crossed paths with.
He was knowledgeable about local flora, fauna and landmark sites, and adjusted our game drives to prioritize the wildlife we were most eager to spot.
Kenya Side (Amboseli)
Our guide Sam was absolutely incredible. He knew every patch of land where different species tended to gather. He took us to capture extremely rare shots of elephant herds crossing the river, plus massive flocks of flamingos just a few meters away from the vehicle. He even accurately predicted the elephants’ travel route and drove ahead to secure a perfect photography spot.
After our Amboseli game drive, he calculated our return timing perfectly and dropped us off at a Nairobi restaurant right on schedule for my reunion with old friends. I truly struck gold with this fantastic guide 🎉

The Perfect Honeymoon Safari – Colours Africa Tours Made Our Dream Come True
Pre-trip Planning – Hatibu Was Simply Amazing
From the very beginning, Hatibu was absolutely phenomenal. He was responsive, patient, and incredibly detail-oriented. We had countless questions (and probably changed our minds more times than we should have), but Hatibu never once showed any frustration. He worked tirelessly to craft the perfect itinerary tailored to our preferences, secured all the accommodations we requested, and made sure we had everything we needed before departure. His communication was prompt and reassuring – we felt completely at ease even before we set foot in Tanzania. Hatibu truly went above and beyond to make our honeymoon special, and we are so grateful for his dedication.
Our guide, Mr. Goodluck, was absolutely the heart of our safari experience. Exceptionally knowledgeable, warm, and deeply passionate about wildlife and the landscapes, he made every single day fascinating. He had an incredible ability to spot animals from miles away and positioned the vehicle perfectly for the best viewing angles, all while respecting the wildlife and their habitat. He shared fascinating insights about animal behavior, the ecosystem, and local culture that enriched our experience far beyond just "seeing" the animals. Every game drive with Mr. Goodluck felt like an adventure, and his enthusiasm was contagious. Transfers between parks were seamless and comfortable – we never felt rushed or stressed, thanks to his expert driving and thoughtful planning.
A special mention must go to Tom, our photographer. Tom was professional, patient, and incredibly talented. He knew exactly when and where to position us for the perfect shot, and he captured moments we would have otherwise missed – from intimate sunset silhouettes to up-close wildlife encounters. His passion for photography was evident in every frame, and the photos he delivered are nothing short of breathtaking. Thanks to Tom, we now have a stunning visual diary of our honeymoon that we will cherish for a lifetime.
Colours Africa Tours and Safaris delivered a seamless, stress-free, and absolutely magical honeymoon experience. From Hatibu's meticulous planning, to Mr. Goodluck's extraordinary guiding, to Tom's incredible photography – every member of the team played a vital role in making our trip truly unforgettable. They are honest, kind, hardworking people who go above and beyond to meet every request. Everything was well organized from start to finish, and we felt completely taken care of every step of the way.
If you are considering a safari in Tanzania – whether for a honeymoon, a family trip, or a solo adventure – do yourself a favor and book with Colours Africa. They are truly 10 out of 10.
