Itinéraire
C'est l'un des meilleurs musées en termes de qualité et de diversité des expositions. Les expositions archéologiques incluent le fossile vieux de 3,5 millions d’années de Lucy (ou Dinkinesh - «merveilleux» - dans la langue maternelle),
La cathédrale Saint-Georges est l’une des églises les plus emblématiques et les plus importantes d’Addis-Abeba. Construit dans un style octogonal traditionnel, il a été construit pour commémorer la victoire de l’Éthiopie sur les Italiens à la bataille d’Adwa en 1896. La cathédrale est magnifiquement décorée avec des peintures vibrantes et des vitraux créés par des artistes éthiopiens renommés, dont Afewerk Tekle. À l'intérieur, les visiteurs peuvent explorer le petit musée présentant des couronnes royales, des manuscrits anciens et des artefacts historiques liés à l'empereur Hailé Sélassié et à l'impératrice Menen. La cathédrale reste un lieu de culte actif et un symbole de la fierté, de la culture et de l'héritage chrétien orthodoxe éthiopiens.
Merkato est l'un des endroits les plus dynamiques et fascinants à visiter à Addis-Abeba, connu comme le plus grand marché en plein air d'Afrique. C'est un dédale animé de milliers de boutiques et d'étals, où les visiteurs peuvent découvrir la véritable énergie de la vie quotidienne éthiopienne. Ici, vous pouvez trouver tout, des épices, du café, des vêtements traditionnels, de l'artisanat artisanal et des bijoux aux articles ménagers et aux produits frais. Chaque section se spécialise dans différents biens, faisant de Merkato un carrefour culturel et commercial unique. Les visiteurs aiment souvent se promener avec un Guide local qui les aide à naviguer sur les sentiers achalandés du marché, à partager des histoires et à montrer des ateliers artisanaux cachés tels que le tissage, la ferronnerie et la production d’encens. Merkato n’est pas seulement un endroit pour faire du shopping, mais aussi une immersion authentique dans la culture, les traditions et la vie urbaine animée de l’Éthiopie.
La montagne Entoto s'élève au-dessus d'Addis-Abeba et offre quelques-unes des plus belles vues panoramiques de la ville. Situé à environ 3 200 mètres d'altitude, il est considéré comme le berceau historique de la ville moderne d'Addis-Abeba, où l'empereur Ménélik II et l'impératrice Taytu ont établi leur premier camp royal.
Votre dernier arrêt est à Tomoca Coffee, la plus ancienne et la plus emblématique torréfaction de café d'Éthiopie, située dans la vieille gare historique. Ce site magnifiquement restauré combine le patrimoine ferroviaire éthiopien avec le riche arôme du café Arabica fraîchement torréfié. À Tomoca, les visiteurs peuvent déguster un macchiato parfaitement infusé, un expresso ou un café éthiopien traditionnel à base de grains de haute qualité d'origine locale. L'atmosphère reflète la longue tradition du café en Éthiopie, ce qui en fait un endroit idéal pour se détendre après la visite de la ville, déguster une tasse de café éthiopien de renommée mondiale et même acheter des grains de qualité supérieure à emporter à la maison.

Although it depends in part on the opinions and wishes of the people accompanying you, it is convenient to be able to quickly tour famous places in a short time. I was able to see into the basement of the church, an experience that would not be possible on an individual trip. I was also surprised by the insecurity of the market (that's the atmosphere). Weather depends on luck lol

Great tour for a short visit to Addis Ababa. I booked the tour very last minute - the communication with the company was really easy and pick up worked well.

Thanks for a wonderful introduction to Addis Ababa!

This was an amazing tour. Our guide Mira and driver Abraham were kind, helpful, and very knowledgeable. I loved every part of it, but my favorites were the coffee house and the church. We skipped the market because it was pouring rain, but the view from Mt. Entoto was incredible. I truly enjoyed this and highly recommend.

Oli is a super host and guide! Liyu tours too was very swift and kind in responding to my requests. along with the driver Daniel came over to pick me up at the transit hotel at 9am and took me around the city and sent me straight to the airport. I really enjoyed Oli’s guide throughout the tour, which educated me of the history, nature, culture and daily little things. He’s young, bright, knowledgeable, thoughtful and caring guide, who I want to recommend people. Thank you indeed for such a special experience.

Our half-day trip in Addis Ababa was a really wonderful experience. We got to see the uniqueness of the local culture, experience the daily life of the locals, and enjoy the authentic Ethiopian coffee, which was absolutely delicious.

We did an Addis Ababa city tour as part of an over Ethiopia tour with Liyu Tours. Abe and Solomon were amazing guides and made for a really fun first day in Ethiopia and a great way to see the city. We visited the monastery, Entoto Hills, National Museum and Merkato. We also stopped for lunch at a very nice local restaurant. Abe and Solomon went out of their way to make sure all of us were having fun, and made a couple of additional stops as well for us as part of the tour. Highly recommend!

Although the guides were kind and helped us on some points, the tour was quite poor in explanation and "guidance". In the beginning, we did not have an explanation of the city or the places we passed through, the guides talked more to each other than they talked to us / introduced the city. The passage on Mount Entoto was very quick and summary..... In short, I did not feel like I had a guided tour of the city at all. Taking a taxi to the different points of the city would have cost me less for a service almost similar....
