Unforgettable experience. Excellent itinerary and accommodations. Wonderful time with this group. You will not be disappointed!Posted on Google T. CambridgeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Black & Abroad gave me my very first experience of Africa—and nothing has topped it since! Our journey through Tanzania and Zanzibar was beautifully curated from start to finish. Every detail was intentional, from the warm welcome by locals on the first night to the perfectly planned itinerary that balanced adventure with time to self-explore. The group itself was a highlight—a mix of returning travelers and first-timers, all sharing a deep appreciation for culture and connection. The videographer captured every moment, allowing me to be fully present without worrying about my phone. Each excursion told a story, and the food experience was phenomenal—especially the catered vegetarian dining by Chef Fred Uisso at Afrikando. Our guide Justa made us feel completely at home, and the comfort of traveling with such a well-organized group allowed me to relax and truly take in the beauty of Africa. Black & Abroad exposed me to luxury travel in Africa in a way that felt both authentic and empowering. My eyes were opened to the beauty and rich culture. I can’t wait to travel with them again, and I highly encourage anyone thinking about it—book the trip and treat yourself! You won’t be disappointed.Posted on Google Linden and Aina JohnsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I traveled to Tanzania and Zanzibar during the most beautiful time of the year, December to January. This once in a lifetime experience was made perfect by Black and Abroad. Black and Abroad was intentional with their selection of host, lodging, cultural experiences, selection of participating travelers, restaurants, nightlife, surreal cultural experiences and exchanges. They curated a deliberate creative cultural experience that was unlike ANY travel experience I have encountered. The most important detail that may not be overlooked was the selection of travelers they brought together. Often times, large travel groups paired with strangers can be underwhelming with the various desires and personalities. However, I could immediately tell that each traveler was a perfect piece to a large puzzle of social experiences, creative perspectives, and flourishing travelers. It added a flair of excitement to experience the world with such broad spectrum of views that were still interestingly enough cohesive and similar. It almost felt like a travelers friend app. As if, we were placed in an algorithm to find our perfect group of travelers; I still connect to them to this day. That moment will last as a memory but the relationships that were developed have transformed into my present friends and business associates. The 5 star was more of a 6 star with the beauty of our lodging and restaurant experiences. Our artistically designed hotel and each restaurant the Black and Abroad team selected was more than welcoming, beautiful, and delicious. Again, all details were considered and every meal was a cultural experience that filled my stomach and soul. We broke bread, laughed, and talked until we were content. The planning of the trip allowed for me to vacate. Typically, when traveling I tend to rush through and take in all the beauty of a space. Then , when I return home I still need a vacation to rest. Black and Abroad did a perfect balance of experience and respecting the moment. I never felt rushed or tired. The agenda was full but organized in such a manner that I felt time was paused for this trip. I was rested and full when I returned home. Our cultural experiences were surreal we danced native dances, walked in villages, placed my feet on grounds my ancestors walked, purchased beautiful items in markets, and partied like it was the biggest party of my life under the stars on the beach for New Years. This was a phenomenal experience that I will continue to look forward to in my future.Posted on Google Shawnita WashingtonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cartagena was incredible, all thanks to Black & Abroad! I’ll admit—I was a little hesitant about doing a group trip, but it turned out to be such a rich and rewarding experience. I jumped into the ocean (yes, with a life jacket 😅), soaked in a volcano mud bath, picked up a few Salsa and Champeta moves, watched the sun set from the historic Walled City, and ate some of the best food I’ve ever had—Chef’s kiss doesn’t even do it justice! The people were incredibly warm and welcoming. The Afro-Colombian art? Simply breathtaking. I also had the chance to visit Palenque, the first free African town in the Americas, and learn more about the deep African roots that still shape the culture today. It was powerful to see the African spirit alive and thriving, even in the face of ongoing challenges. Black & Abroad did an amazing job showing us Colombia! I’d definitely travel with them again!Posted on Google Chris BallentineTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Unforgettable Ghana Adventure! My recent December 2024 trip to Ghana was absolutely outstanding! From the meticulously planned itinerary to the exceptional tour guides, every aspect exceeded my expectations. The guides were not only punctual and safety-conscious, but they also actively participated in our adventures, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Their attentiveness and care allowed us to relax and fully immerse ourselves in the incredible experiences. Each guide was incredibly knowledgeable and personable, fostering a strong sense of community within our group. While every day offered incredible memories, the 5th day stands out as truly magnificent. The rainforest hike, the exhilarating canopy walk, the poignant visit to Cape Coast, and the deeply moving naming ceremony created a lasting impact. I wholeheartedly recommend this Black & Abroad tour to anyone seeking an authentic and unforgettable travel experience in Ghana.Posted on Google Tomekia RushTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to Accra, Ghana with Black and Abroad. It was wonderfully crafted experience and it was a great first time group trip for me.Posted on Google Lauren STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After four incredible trips with Black & Abroad, this review is long overdue. My experience with them has been absolutely phenomenal, and I can’t recommend their services enough for anyone looking to travel to the continent. Each time I’ve traveled with Black & Abroad, they’ve gone above and beyond to make the experience feel unique. I’ve visited several countries across the African Diaspora — from the rich history of Senegal, to the beaches of Zanzibar, explored the tropical charm of Columbia, and the vibrant culture of South Africa — and each trip felt deeply immersive and tailored to me. They don’t just send you to the main tourist sites. With Black & Abroad, you get to experience the local culture in a real, intimate way. I’ve met local artists, tasted food prepared by world recognized chefs from small communities, danced the night away along the coast, experienced powerful reminders of the resilience of my ancestors, and connected with the most welcoming people in every country I’ve visited. Every trip has left me with a deeper understanding and appreciation of the culture. One of the things that keeps me coming back to Black & Abroad is the passion and vision of the founders Kent & Eric. They’ve built more than just a travel company; they’ve created a movement. They’re genuinely committed to uplifting local communities and providing travelers like me with authentic, meaningful experiences. What sets them apart is how much heart and soul they put into everything. It’s clear that they care not only about giving you a fantastic trip, but also about supporting sustainable tourism and making sure the benefits of travel stay within the communities you visit. If you’ve ever been nervous about traveling to a new country, especially in Africa, I can assure you that Black & Abroad takes care of everything. From airport pickups to luxury accommodations, local tours, and insider access, they handle all the logistics so you can travel with peace of mind. The trips are always well-organized, and I’ve always felt completely safe and cared for. Plus, they work with some of the best local guides, all of whom are knowledgeable, friendly, and truly passionate about sharing their culture and heritage. After four trips with Black & Abroad, I can honestly say I’m a loyal fan for life. Each adventure has been unforgettable, and I’m hoping to plan my next one with them soon. Whether it’s your first time traveling to Africa or you’re a seasoned explorer, Black & Abroad will elevate your experience to another level. They take the guesswork and stress out of traveling and ensure that every moment of your trip is special. I can’t recommend them enough. If you’re thinking about booking a trip to Africa or any of their newer offerings; do yourself a favor and book with Black & Abroad. Trust me, you won’t regret it!Posted on Google Vanea PharrTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently traveled to Senegal with Black and Abroad, and I was extremely impressed with the entire operation from start to finish! The level of attention to detail that went into planning every aspect of our cultural experience was apparent from the moment we landed. We had top notch communication from our guides and travel partners throughout the trip, and the smaller, intimate group size helped to forge more meaningful connections. The trip was the perfect balance of vacation fun, cultural connection, and African and African-American history. I will definitely travel with them again, and I highly recommend them to any travelers in the African diaspora looking for a unique, fulfilling travel experience with likeminded new friends.Posted on Google K NormanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tanzania was such an amazing experience with B&A! If you haven’t been on a B&A trip, you are missing out! What I love about them that stands out from other travel groups, is that they curate the unique experience every time. In addition, it’s a beautiful balance of black history, black future, fun, free time, connections, fellowship, and curiosity! I have been to so many countries with B&A and I wouldn’t have any other way. Great customer service with detail to a true travel experience. Stop playing and BOOK! Tell them “Key sent me.”Posted on Google Fatima SedgewickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
