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.

Wonderful 6-day Tanzania safari with well-organized by Julius, great guide John & chef Dale!
My husband and I joined a 6-day Tanzania safari in August and we were thoroughly satisfied with the entire trip. We spotted countless wild animals and witnessed the breathtaking wildebeest river crossing, which was an unforgettable highlight. Manager Julius handled all arrangements excellently, provided reasonable pricing and replied to all my inquiries promptly. Our safari guide John is highly experienced, responsible, patient and calm. Chef Dale prepared incredibly tasty meals every single day. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour operator for anyone planning a wildlife safari in Tanzania.

Great trip, excellent guide, amazing wildlife.
We travelled with 3 kids and had a packed itinerary. Our guide Kelvin was amazing. His eagle eyes found us up close encounters with cheetah in the central Serengeti, the perfect vantage point for a huge herd of wildebeest crossing the Mara and box office seats for a leopard hunt. He was great with our youngest (7) and kept her engaged and content. Would throughly recommend him and Serengeti Clarity.

The best experience in my live
An absolutely beautiful experience! 🇹🇿🦁
We met incredibly kind and helpful people who guided us through Tanzania and made every moment truly unforgettable. We were lucky enough to see all the Big Five in their natural habitat — an experience that is difficult to put into words. 🦁🐘🐆🦏🐃
A special mention goes to our chef, who was absolutely amazing. The food was delicious every single day, despite being right in the middle of the safari! 🍽️
But above all, a huge thank you to our driver, Charlie, who truly made the difference. Professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and always focused on making sure we had the best possible experience. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to see incredible animals and moments that we will remember forever.
An experience I would absolutely recommend and one I would do all over again a thousand times! ❤️🇹🇿

Unforgettable Wild memories with WILDMIST ADVENTURES
We had a magical experience at the Murchison falls national park. We had the best guide- Bruce from Wildmist Adventures. Uganda exceeded all our expectations with its breathtaking waterfalls, incredible wildlife. We shared unforgettable encounters with giraffes, elephants, hippos, gorillas, and above all, the warmth and great hospitality of staff at Chobe Safari Lodge. The entire trip was flawlessly organised by Bruce, so we didn’t have to worry about a thing and we simply enjoyed every moment. Bruce went above and beyond at all times, catered for our needs and even drove us to Jinja- source of the Nile for another experience. This was just a bonus from him to us. I would highly recommend booking your safari trip through Wildmist Adventures 😍

Service Failures and Itinerary Deviations by Kenya Partner Agency (Shades of Africa)
I booked a tour with Jambo Masai Tours, who outsourced the Kenya portion of my trip to Shades of Africa. My complaint is regarding the services delivered by their outsourced partner.
While we have no issue with Jambo Masai Tours directly, we experienced multiple itinerary deviations and service issues from their outsourced Kenya counterpart, specifically driver-guide, David, from Shades of Africa.
Below are the factual details and itinerary deviations encountered during the four days of our trip in Kenya:
Day 1 (Late Arrival & Tipping Request): The driver arrived at 7:00 AM for a scheduled 5:40 AM pick-up at the airport. Upon departure, he requested a tip rate of USD 20 per person per day. This contradicts the rate of USD 10 specified in Jambo Masai's official brochure guidelines.
Day 2 (Missed Itinerary Item & Unscheduled Stop): Delayed arrival times resulted in the complete omission of our scheduled evening game drive in the Maasai Mara. The driver altered the route to include a Maasai village tour not listed in our official itinerary, requiring an unscheduled USD 60 out-of-pocket admission fee.
Day 3 (Altered Game Drive Duration): The driver concluded the game drive at 3:30 PM at the accommodation without prior consultation. While he had communicated the 7:30 AM start time the previous day, the conclusion time was not discussed, and we were notified that the tour had ended upon arrival at the lodging at 3:30 PM.
Day 4 (Tanzania Border Tipping Dispute): At the Tanzania border drop-off at 11:00 AM, the driver contested our tip of USD 100 for the 4-day period (equivalent to USD 12.50 per person per day). He explicitly demanded USD 20 per person per day inside the vehicle until we reiterated Jambo Masai's USD 10 guideline, at which point the provided amount was accepted.
