Life changing experience.
5/5

For me everything worked nice and smooth, since the first day that I arrived in Nairobi, Allan was attentive and answered all my questions and doubts. The Safari itself was amazing, we managed to see a lot of animals including 4 of "the big five" and the incredible wildebeest and cebra migration. The drivers (I had two) were very friendly and gave explanations about animal behavior and other data. The camp also very good, the staff there also an amazing group of people. It definitely met my expectations.

Dream come true safari.
5/5

I contacted 4 companies in kenya and told them what we wanted. Only 1 came back with a price for exactly what we asked for. Alan from Back Of Africa Adventure was a pleasure to deal with. He always responded within minutes to my wasaps and emails and i can assure you i sent a lot of messages. The price for our 4 nights 5 days safari stunned me i never ever thought we could have got so much value for little money. We seen 4 out the big 5 but that was good for us as our guides done their upmost best. Seeing 2 leopard was the highlight. I now know we could afford another safari and if i am ever in Kenya again i will be in touch with Alan for sure. Did i mention our tents at the campsite were ensuite?

Obama: The Tour Guide That Made For the Best Safari Ever
5/5

Our guide, Obama, was hands down the best tour guide we could have possibly asked for. He was infinitely knowledgeable on everything you could possibly want to know when visiting these magical landscapes. He spent hours upon hours telling us the stories of the Maasai people, explaining the history of each location and Kenya in general, and detailing the behaviors and habits of every animal we would (and did) see on our safari. Aside from his wealth of knowledge, he was extraordinarily energetic, jovial, kind, and respectful of our wishes for the trip. He bent over backwards and jumped through hoops to make sure we could experience all that was possible. Obama is the kind of person that you'll become best friends with immediately and you know his passion is to provide you with the most unforgettable experience you could hope for.

A wonderful experience in Tanzania
5/5

I had a two-day tour of Ngorongoro, Tarangire in Tanzania.
It was originally scheduled for three days, but due to delays in flight departures, it arrived in Tanzania 24 hours later than expected. In addition, the baggage was lost.It was really the worst. I informed Alan about this situation, and he gave me feedback in real time. Alan's quick scheduling helped me finish the trip well.
And, because I lost my luggage, the guide helped me buy the things I needed before I started the safari tour.
Although the whole situation has shown the worst, I am very grateful to have completed the trip safely with the help of Allan.

And everyone! Go to Ngorongoro. I saw a family of lions hunting buffalo there. It was by far the best moment.
I wish you good luck, too.

Brilliant organiser + knowledgable guides = Best Honeymoon
5/5

Allen is the best contact person one can have to plan an Africa Safari. He was available 24x7 for instant assistance. Unfortunately my flight got delayed and I missed my connecting flight to Nairobi. I was in contact with Allen even at 22:00, he was available, very patient and ensured the trip went smoothly in spite of missing out on the first day. Thanks to his planning we had absolutely no hiccups in our honeymoon and we had a trip that is worth remembering for a lifetime. Back of Africa tailor made our plan to suit out budget and the places we wanted to visit, we had lovely stays and were provided with good knowledgable guides who were very punctual. Overall we had a great experience and we highly recommend this company for your Safari.

Our Safari was just excellent.
5/5

My mother and me spent 5 days in the Tsavo west and east national park.
We were really lucky with Allen and our safari guide Obama.
He did not hesitated to share his knowledge about the wildlife and also told us many things about the local life.
He patiently guided us through the huge park. We felt really comfortable and happy on our journey together :)
The lodges were just amazing, everything was organized really well.
The only thing for what I would wish an improvement is the staff's behaviour in our last lodge (Ngulia lodge in the west park). The food was ok, compared to the other two lodges nothing special and the staff was not very kind.

But all in all we had an amazing time. Thank you Allen and especially thank you Obama for this unforgettable journey !

Kudos to Allan and Back of Africa Adventure
They planned the six day Safari to Maasai Mari, Nakuru and Ambroseli with a beach vacation to Mombasa. Good experience, wonderful lodges and excellent driver, Elliott. He was very knowledgeable about the drive and the animals.

Amazing
5/5

The trip was breath taking. The service was excellent, food delicious, and you get a lot for your money especially if you travel witha group together. My driver went so far for my to see everything, and it felt like they enjoyed you having the best time. I recommend this to all my friends, and I will definitely be back, using Back to Africa Adventure.

One of my best trips in life!
5/5

The trip organized by Allan was amazing! We went to the Masai Mara (Kenya) Serengeti (Tanzania) , and Ngorongoro s Crater, and Biwindi’s Impenetrable Park (Uganda, and Gorilla Trek and amazing lake lodge). Our lodges were amazing, glamping style, great food, and amazing natural surroundings. We had the best Guides, Bohr, Agustine, and Leo. We were a party of two and had the jeep to our selves the whole trip. Such a memorable trip! Totally worth while and life changing :)
