Great Safari in Kenya with Back of Africa Adventure
Overall rating
5/5

I would recommend Back of Africa Adventure without any hesitation. Good and fast communication from the first email. For the Safari we used a minivan only for us (2 persons) and the acomodations were ok. The guide Simon was great and help us in any possible way.

I really loved my trip to the Maasai Mara Reserve! We had a private van drive us around the reserve and we saw sooo many animals. It was an incredible experience - one I will never forget. Camping just off the reserve was also great - they provided dinner and served beer ! Then we got up early in the morning for a second drive and watching the sunrise was awesome. Our guide was also so friendly and made our trip so fun. He let us stop on the way to the reserve for snacks :)

Highly recommend a trip to the Mara!

One of the amazing crew with all the relevant experience required. Exceptional Safari, scenery, whether, accommodation, food, transport, guide, locals and other essential commodities all were perfect. No matter from which part of the globe you come here, you will enjoy this with their support and experience. Specially Masai Mara & lake Nakuru.

Cheers,

Everything about this trip was wonderful! My daughter is a vegan and the variety of food choices was good and plenty. The lodges were very comfortable and clean. We really enjoyed the entire trip. Our guide James was very helpful! Highly recommended! Samuel was very helpful as well organizing the trip!

I did the safari with Axis Africa Safaris. Lennox was the contact person via email. He always answered very fast and everything was as agreed. Kikutu was the guide and he was superb. The trip from Nairobi to masai Mara is long but went very well.
I would really recommend this operator and specially this guide (kikitu)

My wife and I normally traveled by self-drive or train and we have never joined a tour. It was our first time experience of a guided 10 days package and we enjoyed it thoroughly as planning was done by the company and the guide did my normal job as a driver.

Our guide, Mwendwa, was fantastic! Good driver, frendly person, great friend. We were like as family. He never was late, he works usually over his duty. His eyes was better then our binocular

Ben from eTrip Africa did a great job of customizing our trip for our family of four. Everything about our trip was absolutely fantastic. The wildlife and scenery were incredible. We stayed in accomodations which varied from glamping to renting a whole cottage and every place was clean, tidy and safe. We thought, given the remote conditions, that food quality would suffer and we would be eating alot of granola bars but that couldnt have been further from the truth. Food was excellent... even the box lunches!
Our guide, John, was incredibly knowledgable and kept us close to the action but did not disturb the animals’ behaviors. The vehicle was a well-maintained truck with a popup top which we were very happy to have after seeing some of the other vehicles in the parks (old beat-up vans; trucks with completely open sides which would provide NO PROTECTION from animals that might get frisky and held shivering occupants in the mornings and evenings; vehicles with no pop up, etc).
Hard to pick one highlight: was it standing in our truck in the silence while 10 giraffes quietly munched on tree leaves just feet from us? Or maybe watching a leopard make its way out of the grasses to climb a tree where it had stored its kill, while the sun set on the savannah? The hyenas fighting for a piece of a downed zebra? Two bloodied rhinos fighting over an observing female? A male lion protecting his kill from a pack of hungry hyenas? What will YOUR adventure yield?
This was our first trip to Africa and we were a little nervous about our safety, however, we felt safe on our entire trip. Ben met us the first day, which was reassuring. Everywhere we went, the people were friendly and eager to show us what their beautiful country had to offer.
I highly recommend Ben and eTrip Africa. They made our Trip of a Lifetime one to truly remember.
