Colours Africa Tours and Safaris is a Tanzanian local safari company founded in 2019 by Godlisten Mjema, a former passionate safari and mountain guide. Since our establishment, we have proudly served numerous travelers who seek to explore and experience the natural beauty and wildlife of Tanzania and East Africa.
Based in Arusha, our mission has always been to provide unforgettable safari adventures while ensuring the highest level of customer satisfaction. We are committed to delivering exceptional service and creating memorable experiences that reflect the rich culture, landscapes, and wildlife of our region.
At Colours Africa Tours and Safaris, we are proud to have a team of over 10 highly professional safari guides who consistently deliver exceptional service, ensuring our guests enjoy unforgettable adventures and create lifelong memories.
One powerful example of their dedication and expertise occurred during a routine game drive. One of our experienced guides was out in the wild with his guests, working diligently to track wildlife. During the drive, they unexpectedly encountered a young male elephant that began charging aggressively toward their vehicle, trumpeting loudly and closing the distance at high speed.
In a moment that could have caused panic, our guide remained calm and reassured the guests, instructing them to stay still and composed. He then slowly and skillfully maneuvered the vehicle away from the path of the elephant. Thanks to his calm decision-making and deep understanding of animal behavior, the group safely escaped the encounter.
What could have been a frightening incident turned into a thrilling and memorable experience—one that the guests later described as one of the most exciting parts of their safari. All of it was made possible by a guide whose expertise, courage, and composure turned a challenge into a highlight of the trip.
This story is just one of many that show how our guides go above and beyond to create safe, exciting, and meaningful safari experiences.

Recognized as one of the greatest wildlife reserves in the world, Serengeti National Park offers an unparalleled safari experience. The Central Serengeti is especially rich in wildlife, where guests can often spot animals up close, including lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, leopards, cheetahs, and more—all roaming freely across the endless, scenic plains. One of the park's most iconic events is the Great Wildebeest Migration, which usually occurs during the dry season, when millions of wildebeest and zebras cross the Mara River—an awe-inspiring natural spectacle and a highlight of any safari.
We also take our clients to experience the majestic view of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa and the second highest free-standing mountain in the world. Our preferred route for this experience is the Lemosho Route, which not only provides a spectacular panoramic view of the mountain but also allows guests to walk short sections of the trail, giving them a taste of the Kilimanjaro hiking experience without committing to a full summit.
At Colours Africa Tours and Safaris, we understand that travel doesn’t always go as planned—and that’s when our team’s commitment truly shines. One of our clients recently faced a challenging situation: upon arrival in Tanzania, their luggage was lost by the airline, and they were scheduled to begin their safari the very same day. Understandably, this caused a lot of stress and panic. However, our dedicated team immediately stepped in. We communicated directly with the airline, tracked down the missing luggage, and made every effort to ensure the issue was resolved as quickly as possible. Thanks to our team's persistence and coordination, the luggage was found and safely delivered to the client’s hotel. When the clients returned from their first day on safari, they were overjoyed to find their belongings waiting for them. What started as a stressful experience turned into a positive and memorable moment—allowing them to relax and fully enjoy the rest of their safari adventure.

Bewertung schreibenColours did an amazing job! They were so available and receptive before the trip to answer my thousands of questions. Everything went smoothly. Our guide, Oscar, was the highlight. He was so knowledgeable and clearly loved what he did. He also constantly got us in the best positions to observe the animals. He also listened to our wishes (I really wanted to see big cats) and did everything he could to make those happen.
Great travel agency, special care travel agency, reasonable price. Specially arrange meals suitable for Chinese, and keep track of changes in the itinerary. Great travel agency, highly recommended!
Delivered all what was agreed and iven more. Perfect logistics, great professional knowledge (Derick) and cuisine magician Sule.

Wish I could give 6 stars! Our guide, Norton, was superb — knowledgeable, friendly, kind, and incredibly passionate about animals and nature. He went above and beyond to find everything we hoped to see, and he succeeded every time! I can’t say enough good things about Norton! The company itself was extremely professional. They contacted us before our arrival to confirm pick-up details, and everything went smoothly. Over the 11 days, across 4 different parks, we always felt well taken care of. Even after the safari, we extended our stay in Arusha, and they handled everything, including the hotel and tour. It’s rare to find such a well-organized, professional team. What a difference from our previous experience in Kenya! Six stars at least!!!
Before I booked my safari experience, I contacted a few different agencies to compare prices and offers. Grace from Colours Africa was the most helpful and responsive. I requested a 6-day solo safari, and Grace customized the entire trip to match my preferences. Given my budget, the accommodations were simple, with a few nights spent camping, but it turned out to be the most amazing experience. Sleeping in a tent under the stars, with hyenas calling in the distance, was truly unforgettable. The crew was incredibly helpful and took great care of us, making sure we had everything we needed.
We spent 5 fantastic days, everything was well-organized, and our guide was incredibly charismatic! We absolutely loved the safari—it was an amazing experience! Our kids (7 and 11 years old) enjoyed it just as much too :)
The guide was very responsible and ensured that we had a safe and smooth safari journey. We got to see animals like elephants, zebras, wildebeests, lions, and more up close. I'm extremely satisfied. Additionally, the trip to the island was a complete success, and I was able to capture many beautiful pictures of the stunning scenery!
This 16-day trip to Tanzania was truly an unforgettable adventure, not only due to its rich itinerary but also because of the deep experiences and lasting memories it created. The entire journey was filled with surprises and discoveries, especially as our group spent unforgettable moments together in four vehicles, guided by 16 partners and four local experts. Every moment was a unique experience.
We spent 6 wonderful days with Kindo, our guide, who was an incredible asset in helping us see as much wildlife as possible. Sometimes he followed the other 4x4s, and other times he took his own route through the savannah. The driving was very safe, and we always felt comfortable, which made it easy to enjoy Tarangire, Ndutu, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro parks—highly recommended by all four of us! The agency was very responsive to our requests and provided us with great hotels. There was always water and Coca-Cola on board for the 6 days, and we never ran out of anything. There were a few last-minute hotel changes, but the agency made up for it, and Godlisen, who runs the agency, was very responsive and adapted to the situation. We recommend checking the program a month ahead to ensure everything is in order. We are very happy to have traveled with Colours Africa Safari and highly recommend traveling with Kindo!

My recent safari experience in the Tanzanian savannah was absolutely incredible! The vast landscapes and the incredible variety of wildlife exceeded all my expectations. We were lucky to get up close to so many animals, from majestic lions and towering giraffes to herds of zebras and elephants. The highlight was definitely spotting a pride of lions resting under a tree—an unforgettable sight. Our guide was outstanding, not only because of his extensive knowledge of the animals and their habitats but also due to his unwavering commitment to our safety. He navigated the terrain with ease, ensuring we reached each destination safely and making the entire journey smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend this safari experience to anyone who loves wildlife and adventure. It’s truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

We saw the Big 5 and many other animals in the stunning wildlife parks and enjoyed the warm, laid-back Tanzanian culture. After the safari, we visited Mafia Island, where we swam with whale sharks and tropical fish. Our guides, Kindu and Godlisten from Colours Africa, were great company, highly knowledgeable, and had everything organized down to the last detail. This made the trip an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend it!
We had a wonderful time in Tanzania with Colours Tours! We visited Ngorongoro, Ndutu, and Serengeti, saw plenty of animals, and of course, the Big Five! Our guide, Norton, was excellent—he drove safely, always searching for hidden animals, and communicated easily in English. A big thank you to Jemesina as well, who helped organize the tour and fulfilled all our requests. She responded to every email quickly and understood exactly what we wanted. Every hotel she arranged was clean and comfortable. We had a truly unique and amazing experience!
The safari was the best experience of our lives! We worked with Justin and his team to create the perfect honeymoon safari, and throughout the year, Justin was incredibly helpful and responsive, tailoring the itinerary to our needs. Once in Tanzania, Alan greeted us and shared interesting stories about the country. Our guide, Benjamin, made the experience unforgettable. His deep knowledge of the animals, parks, and Tanzania enhanced our trip. We saw all the wildlife we hoped for, even witnessing some incredible hunting moments. The car was always clean, and Benjamin's care for the animals made the experience even more special. We’re incredibly grateful to Benjamin and the team, and we can’t wait to return. Asante Sana to everyone!
We chose Colours Africa for our Tanzania trip, and it was the best decision! The organization was flawless from the start. The trip balanced adventure and relaxation perfectly. The safaris were incredible, and we were lucky to see all the "Big Five" in stunning landscapes. Our guide, Kindu, was knowledgeable, friendly, and shared fascinating insights about the wildlife and local culture. A highlight was the waterfall hike on the last day—magical and unforgettable. We also enjoyed a coffee-making workshop afterward. Logistically, everything was well-organized, from transport to accommodation and meals, ensuring a stress-free experience. I highly recommend Colours Africa for anyone visiting Tanzania! 🌍🦁✨
Jemesina offered patient and friendly communication services, creating a fantastic itinerary with excellent pricing. Our guide, Jackson, was an exceptional driver. He drove fast yet smoothly and had a great knack for finding the best spots and wildlife. We witnessed the wildebeest crossing the river and saw the entire Big Five in Nudtu. It was an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Tanzania's three crown-jewel parks in five perfectly paced days, built around two full nights in Tarangire and a Ngorongoro Crater finale. You begin with deep, unhurried time among Tarangire's colossal elephant herds and ancient baobabs, cross the Ngorongoro highlands to the endless predator-rich plains of the Central Serengeti, then descend into the crater on your final morning — all without a single day of inefficient backtracking.
Tanzania's northern circuit built for deep time in every park that matters. Two full nights inside Tarangire let you explore the elephant-and-baobab heart of the park at dawn and dusk. Two full nights in the Central Serengeti unlock both Seronera Valley predators and the remote Moru kopjes with its black rhinos and ancient rock art. A Ngorongoro Crater finale on Day 6 means no exhausting 8-hour drive home — just a morning among 25,000 mammals and a 3-hour return to Arusha.
Tanzania's calving season safari, done right. From Tarangire's elephant herds you push south into the Serengeti and deeper still to the volcanic ash plains of Ndutu — where ten thousand wildebeest give birth in January and February and the predators follow like a tide. The itinerary closes with a Ngorongoro Crater descent on the final morning and a clean three-hour drive back to Arusha. No brutal Seronera-to-Arusha slog. No misleading compass directions. Just the greatest wildlife spectacle on earth, encountered on its own terms.
Three of Tanzania's most iconic wildlife experiences, three category-defining luxury lodges, and not a single wasted hour — this seven-day fly-in connects Lake Manyara's forest canopy, the Ngorongoro Crater's ancient caldera floor, and a private concession in the northern Serengeti in one seamless luxury circuit. Arrive at Kilimanjaro, reach a treehouse-style lodge by nightfall, and spend the next six nights living closer to Africa than most visitors dare.
The gold standard seven-day Tanzania safari, restructured so it ends the way it deserves to. Two full days at Tarangire''s elephant river, three nights deep in the Serengeti, and then — as the crescendo — a sunrise descent into Ngorongoro Crater followed by a smooth 3.5-hour drive home to Arusha. No brutally long final-day drive. The crater as the finale.
Experience the Tanzania that fewer than one percent of safari visitors ever see. This eight-day fly-in circuit links Nyerere National Park and Ruaha National Park — Africa's largest protected area and Tanzania's largest national park — with boat safaris on the Rufiji River, walking safaris through big-game country, and virtually zero other tourists from start to finish. Both parks close mid-March to end-May — this itinerary operates June through October.
