Tour della città di Addis Abeba - Musei, mercati e caffè

This tour with Elias was amazing. He is an excellent tour guide who is very knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. I would recommend this tour with Elias to anyone.

My husband and I booked a full day in Addis Ababa so we could see the city. We arranged a tour and Elias was our guide. We were running quite late for the tour due to air and hotel complications, but Elias and the driver waited for us. They met us at the airport and after the tour, dropped us at our hotel. The tour was great! Elias pointed out points of interest, put them in historical context and made the tour fun. We especially enjoyed the national museum, the coffee ceremony and the Mercato. It seems that Elias knows everyone in Addis. We would highly recommend!

Had Addis Ababa city tour. and I was fortunate to have Elias as my guide. Elias has extensive knowledge of the city & its history. He also is patient, no matter how many questions you may ask. I strongly recommend Elias as Addis Ababa tour guide

Elias’s tour was truly amazing and one of the best city tours I’ve ever had the pleasure of taking. We were just three people, and it was clear that Elias had designed the programme to suit our interests and age. He knows everything about his city and answered all our questions with great detail. The tour was perfectly balanced, with a visit to a small but well curated museum, a stroll through a lively market, a drive up to Toto Mountain where Ethiopian marathon runners train, offering stunning views of the city. While we were driving, Elias pointed out all sorts of interesting spots. We also had lunch at a lovely local restaurant and ended the tour with a visit to a coffee shop and roastery where we made Ethiopian coffee the traditional way. The pick-up and drop-off at my hotel were right on time, and the vehicle was very comfortable. If you are in Addis for a short time, this tour is definitely something you should consider.

Elias is is wonderful guide. I was able to customize tour so I could visit attractions I wanted to see. His recommendation for lunch place was great

My wife and I had two short visits to Addis Ababa, and we've had several good experiences with tourguide Elias. We look the local city tour, as well as a tour to Debre Libanos and to the Crater Lake. Elias speaks excellent English, which makes communication so much easier. Ethiopia is a place where life operates differently than in western nations, so we need a local person who understands the preferences and expectations of western tourists and can figure that out in a local context. Elias really thinks through all the implications of travel and makes appropriate plans (e.g., telling the restaurant an hour ahead of time that we're coming, to reduce our wait time). He explains local customs and practices, and has keen insight on what westerners want. We found Elias quite pleasant and charming. He can customize tours based on individual preferences and priorities, and provide recommendations for self-directed travel (e.g., recommendations for local shops and restaurants). We highly recommend Elias and Shebapath.

It was a great experience. I highly recommend our tourguide that time Elias. He was bery helpful and informative. He never stops explaining while doing the tour and even in the car. You would feel that you have already tour all round ethiopia.

If you are visiting Addis Ababa and want an experience that feels authentic rather than 'touristy,' I cannot recommend this tour enough. It was an absolutely incredible day that left me with wonderful memories of Ethiopia’s heart and soul. Since there were only two guests, the entire experience felt deeply personal and perfectly tailored to our interests. Our driver, Seifu, was the definition of professional and kind, navigating the city with ease. Our guide, Elias, was exactly as promised: friendly, incredibly flexible, and remarkably positive, even when the unpredictable rain and Addis traffic could have easily dampened the mood. They truly went above and beyond to ensure the day was special. From taking stunning photos for me to sharing deep, valuable insights into the local culture and history, they helped me get a real sense of the country beyond the surface. Two moments stood out as absolute highlights: the breathtaking, panoramic views from Entoto and the traditional coffee ceremony, which felt like such a warm and authentic moment of connection. The tour was well-organized, insightful, and seamless from start to finish. A huge thank you to the team for such a memorable time. This is a must-do for anyone wanting to see the best of Addis Ababa!

Elias is the best guide. I learned a lot about Ethiopia because of him and I felt very safe. He ensured we are ok and if we are comfortable. He is your best guide in Ethiopia
