I had the distinct pleasure of traveling with TBOG to Ghana in January of 2024. I did not know what to expect, but what I found was a deeply spiritual experience that I could not have had without the activities that TBOG planned for us. Now let me say, we travelled with 150 Type A personality professionals, who were not always cooperative when it came to moving around the country, making adjustments and moving through the activities. Lisa and her staffers made certain that we had experiences that were meaningful to returning home to our Motherland. We travelled to Slave River, Elmina and Cape Coast Castles (Dungeons). We had a Naming Ceremony where we were all given Ghanaian names on our 8th day home (a tradition of Ghanaian birth rights). Lisa and her staff members even got us an audience with the Former President of Ghana. We were graciously entertained by Former President John Agyekum Kufuorso. This was an experience that only TBOG could give us because of the obvious relationships they have formed with our Ghanaian brothers and sisters. Each motor coach had our own tour guide who were true historians. If you are looking for authentic experiences that give you a sense of what a country is truly about, travel TBOG. I am looking forward to my next trip with Lisa and Chyrisse #Ghana2024Bus3forLife. Thank you Lisa and your team for making my homegoing such a beautiful experience. What’s our next destination?
Let’s talk about making sure every detail is taken care. Let’s talk about communication in every aspect of you vacation. Let’s talk value for the money. Let’s talk about immersing yourself in culture and an abundance of activities(you still have time for self/relax) If you haven’t talked to Black Onyx Travel Group you are missing out on all these things
“I went to run a marathon, but never expected to climb the sydney harbor bridge and get a private copter ride across New Zealand. I will remember those things for a lifetime.”
I traveled to zimbabwe and south africa in july 2019 and the trip was truly the experience of a lifetime. The days were packed with all the things one would want to experience in those countries. all the thinking was done for me, the only thing i had to think about was what clothes to wear each day.”
“Every aspect of this trip was handled with professional precision. The tour guides were very knowledgeable. I met a lot of people and my wife and I had a good time. Big shoutout to the black onyx group and Chyrisse Jackson for making the arrangements.”
“I enjoyed my trip to Morocco in September 2023. I learned so much. for example, silk material is obtained from agave treeS and how to recognize a fake rug from A real one. Awesome and priceless trip. The trips by tbog are fun and so educational.“
My dream trip was to go to Africa. The Black Onyx Group had my dream in their hands and far exceeded all my expectations! I saw and experienced sights that were beautiful and exciting and challenged me to step outside my box. It was truly the trip of a lifetime and I plan to travel with The Black Onyx Group again soon!
I’ve been using this travel agency since 2015, and the level of concierge service provided is unmatched! Lisa and her team are exceptional with curating travel experiences that are unforgettable. I have been traveling to Negril, Jamaica for years, with this agency, and I tell ALL of my friends about their personalized experiences, amazing packages, and easy payment plans. If you are looking for a travel agency that doesn’t give you the run around, gives you a 5-Star personal touch, and books unique culture rich experiences, book with The Black Onyx Group
I recently traveled to South Africa with The Black Onyx Group and it was the most amazing trip ever! Being in the motherland was great but the accommodations were top shelf. The tours were well planned! I have already booked my next trip with Lisa already
