The tour was great, the guide was very nice and professional.
We visited Lake Assal and took a trip to Grand Barra. The guided tours are superb, interesting, and flexible.
Hello, Is this excursion still available? If you have already participated, would you have the contact? By email would be better. Thank you.
I had great time with the guide Maria and Driver Hassan I would highly recommend going with these two The iternary was well thought about And every stop is something new to do They provide free water bottles which are well needed in this trip Bring your hat and sunglasses with you I would highly recommend this trip if you visit Djibouti 🇩🇯
It’s really a perfect day tour. My driver Hassan and Guide Ani is super friendly and arrange everything very well. We both visited the Lake Assal, Volcano Ardoukoba, some view points of canyon. After the trip they kindly bring me to the airport on time.
Today I had the incredible pleasure of exploring Lake Assal, Goubet Bay and even a volcano with my tour guide Gilbert. Gilbert made the tour an unforgettable experience! He took wonderful care of me from the beginning and made sure everything went smoothly. His knowledge of the land, culture and nature is impressive – from the tectonic plates and hot springs to exciting stories about the area – Gilbert could answer every question and explained everything so vividly. You immediately notice that he has a huge experience and shares his passion for the country. Thanks to Gilbert, I got an insight that you would never experience as a tourist otherwise. Highly recommended – thanks for this fantastic day!
Great day trip while I killed time before embarking on my scuba diving cruise. Sam and Hassan we are knowledgeable, personable, and kind. Lake Assal is amazing. The quantity of salt there is shocking. The natural springs and rock formations were also very intriguing. The lava flow from the most recent eruption covered what seemed like miles. Being able to view three tectonic plates in one place was pretty amazing. We were lucky enough to see a camel caravan and a troop of baboons. On the way back to the hotel, they were kind enough to allow me to stop at a store to purchase some supplies. Highly recommend!
Moussa is a fantastic guide, easy going, funny and knows Djibouti 🇩🇯 as well as anyone. He took us to places i didn't even know existed. Thanks 👍
Djibouti has a lot to offer for some adventure-minded tourists. The saline low-lying Lake Assal day trip combined with Dimbya Canyon is a definite highlight. Though the lake was not covered with salt when i went due to recent rains, the mountain-circled scenery was great. So was the volcanic side with gaps between tectonic plates being visible and signs of hot smoke coming through all being clearly visible. There is enough written about Dimbya Canyon but when you see it, it is spectacular. The trip with a private car was very well organised. My French was not good enough but the agency provided someone who had knowledge and also translated the driver's French. Don't worry too much - the scenery speaks for itself! If you are in Djibiuti - or even as a side trip from Ethiopia - one well-worth doing.
Our driver, Moussa, and guide was absolutely wonderful! He gave us such a great experience touring Djibouti!! He is knowledgeable, personable, and very accommodating!
