Amazing 4-day safari
I have to mention The Back of Africa's representative, Allan. He was amazing. His email correspondence was super prompt and he was extremely thoughtful throughout the entire process (reservation, downpayment, ...). He even called our driver on our second day of safari just to check if we are satisfied and if everything is ok. Really amazing service on their end.
Moreover, we had a really great time and saw every one of Big Five group. Our driver and the cook were both great and really did their best.
Our driver Erick even communicated with other drivers to find out where the most interesting animals were located and took us there. All in all, it was a great experience. And even though it was a rainy season we had very nice weather.

Good Safari for a very reasonable price
It was a very nice safari, our driver was quite experienced and did everything to make our experience unique. The food was also very nice. I think its hard to get a budget safari for a cheaper price. Although the price is pretty low I missed nothing and can only recommend this operator!

An amazing experience we will talk about for years
My husband and I booked our safari one day before leaving and Allan helped with the whole thing. He was very quick with responding and made us feel comfortable with our last minute plans. Our driver Martin was the BEST! We saw all the animals that they said we would, and more. I could not believe what a wonderful time we had!! I will definitely be recommending Back of Africa to all my friends heading to Kenya!

Spectacular safari in Masa Mara with great service!
Just finished a 4-day budget safari in Masai Mara and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Allan M. was very helpful and responsive throughout the booking and arrangement process, and our tour operator gave us the best experience possible over the four days, demonstrating expertise and experience during the game drives and providing substantial knowledge on the wildlife. I would highly recommend Back of Africa for a safari, especially for those traveling on a budget.

Amazing experience in Tanzania
We are so thankful to Back of Africa for preparing the perfect safari experience possible. Allan was extremely attentive and helpful, took care of us in Kenya and Tanzania. Airlines lost our luggage the day before we departed for our safari and Allan made everything in his power and had our lost luggage delivered to us a day later in the midst of the Northern circut somewhere between Serengeti and Tarangire:) we vere amazed at exceptional planning and execution of the safari. Our guide Anwar in Tanzania had an amazing knowledge of wildlife and was full of interesting stories he shared at dinner:) Seriously, look no further, Back of Africa will make your african dreams come true and will take care of you if anything goes wrong. I will be recommending them to all my family and friends until the end of time.

Great Safari Experience!
We just did a 3 night/4 days Safari to Masai Mara/Lake Nakuru. Allan helped us organize the Safari; he answered all our questions in a timely fashion and was available through email and chat. Our guide George greeted us from the airport and everything went smoothly during the Safari. We saw the Big 5, and many other animals thanks to our guide Benson. He was very knowledgeable; he knew ins and outs of Masaai Mara. We chose luxury accommodation and our hotels were exceptional: comfortable, clean, and with great view.
The lodges were booked in good time despite our late payments due to our bank restrictions on figures that should b transferred overseas
Overall, we had a great Safari thanks to Allan and Benson. I would highly recommend Natural World Kenya Safaris to every traveler.

Life time experience!! Thank you very much Back Of Africa Adaventure
I hold a uk passport though working at the uk embassy here in Kenya for the last one year now. I had my husband and 4 of my old school friends visiting me from uk/ usa and Canada; I felt so nervous on what surprises I should offer them when they visit me here in Kenya since it was their first leg in East Africa.
Thanks to the new technology “internet”. Through my internet surfing I came across Back of Africa adventure online and thanks to the reviews from all walks of the world who did a safari with this company. I got convinced and impressed with the few comments I read online.
My mail contact was Allan, to be honest this young gentle man love his work and respnds faster than i could imagine.
I requested a 15 days Kenya and Tanzania trip. The accommodations were wonderful as were the destinations that allan helped us select. We really appreciated the diversity of the places we visited and stayed at: Samburu national game reserve, olpajeta conservancy (sweet waters conservancy) Lake Nakuru national park , Maasai mara game reserve Serengeti National park, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara National park and Tarangire National park.
Each park and each camp had something special to offer. One camp had only luxury 7 tents, one had 30 raised tents. Some were in between (with 15-20 individual units). Not all accommodations were tented... as Allan selected some middle class lodge type properties too to fit our budget bracket as we were not up market travelers. Each was different and had a unique personality which only added to the trip. Whether it was the view of Kilimanjaro, the resident warthogs, the sneaky monkeys, the elephants that visited the water hole for an evening drink, the gourmet food, the incredible service, the night game drive at srena sweet waters, the walking safari, the picnic breakfast or the Maasai spotters.. Each facility and each destination was perfect and amazing.
The most memorable moments on our 15 days adventure were being happily trapped in our "tree-tent" at Tarangeri Treetops for several hours while a family of elephants (6) ate their way around our raised tent. (see the elephant near the entrance to our tent). And a very special surprise Maasai blessing ceremony (orchestrated by Allan and his staff and our gracious hosts, Joe and Michael (guide) at mara sarova game lodge) to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary in the Maasai Mara game reserve. Truly a fairytale ending to a dream vacation to my husband and I.
I highly recommend booking a personalized/customized tour rather than a group tour. We saw many of the "famous” group tours, staying at the same facilities we did. It was often 8 - 9 people ( strangers) traveling together and It appeared that they toured and dined together every day Can you imagine what it would be like if you didn't get along with someone in your group?? I think you lose the intimacy that traveling on a customized tour offers. We still had an opportunity to meet others without feeling obligated to participate in group activities.
Thank you very much Back Of Africa Adventure and our driver guide Michael keep it up even to future customers.
I recommend…

Affordable yet memorable safari
Back of Africa Adventure offered an exciting and memorable experience for me and my wife. It was was an affordable and amazing safari. They took us on a one week tour at the Maasai Mara and the driver cum guide were very friendly and knowledgeable. We did not experience any hitch on the way; we left on time; arrived on time and we were on time to catch our flight back to Rwanda.
