Best tour guide ever!

Daniel was an incredibly good tour guide. He tailored the tour to what I was interested in exploring. He is very knowledgeable on the historical facts, plus he gave me a little parting gift. I really appreciate his dedication.

Friendly guides, good knowledge, safe driving; good lunch choice - a great way to see Addis Ababa!

Daniel and his driver friend Ahati did a wonderful job of guiding me through the city, slowing down to allow me to get pictures of monuments and adding in a museum (the Red Terror Museum) at my request. Daniel had good knowledge of the content without being too overwhelming. Communication was good and they even arrived at my hotel early. I totally recommend this tour as a time efficient way to visit the most important sites of Addis Ababa as navigating the traffic on your own would be difficult as a visitor.

Amazing 1-day tour of Addis

Had an amazing day tour of Addis Ababa with Daniel. He was very flexible and customized the itinerary to my interests and availability. He knows the city very well and patiently explained everything about the sites we visited in detail. He was also open to making stops along the way as per my wish, such as restaurants and coffee shops. If you are looking for a knowledgeable guide who can navigate and show you around the city in leisure, I highly recommend him. I will certainly book again with him on my next visit to Ethiopia!
