I had a great 1-day tour of Addis Ababa with Zele who took me to museums and various sites across the city. He did not just drop me off at the museums - he provided a guided tour of each place tailored to what I was interested in. During the drive I shown various monuments and heard stories of the city and country's history. In the middle of the tour they took me to an authentic coffee ceremony and ethiopian lunch. Near the end they took me to a few boutique shops to find the perfect gifts for my family - and later - I saw that the prices and quality were much better than I could achieve at the airport (or going to the local market). I would highly recommend their tour to both solos, couples, and famillies.
Dear Gabriel, My name is Muluken. Thank you for sharing your experience of your layover day in Addis Ababa with Merit Ethiopian Experience Tours. We’re glad Zele could make the museums and sites come alive with stories and context that matched your interests. It is also great to hear that the city sightseeing drive in Addis Ababa helped you to learn more of the city and Ethiopia. We’re especially happy that the coffee ceremony and Ethiopian lunch felt authentic and memorable, and that the boutique stops helped you find meaningful gifts at better value than the airport or market.

We’re so glad we chose this company for our Addis Ababa tour. From the moment we booked until the day we arrived, they were incredibly organized and kept in touch with us every step of the way, which made everything feel easy and stress-free. The pickup process at the airport was smooth, and everything went exactly as planned. Our guide, Zele (Zelalem), was absolutely wonderful. He was so friendly, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. You can really tell how passionate he is about sharing his country, and we learned so much from him throughout the day. Our driver was also very kind and professional, and we always felt comfortable and well taken care of. One of our favorite parts of the experience was getting to learn about Ethiopia beyond just the sights. We left with a much deeper appreciation for the country’s history, culture, and people. Thank you, Zele, for making our first visit to Ethiopia such a memorable one! We had an amazing experience and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company to anyone visiting Addis Ababa.

We had an absolutely fabulous tour with Biruk. We were picked up right on time and spent the rest of the day exploring the myriad sights of Addis Ababa. Biruk organized the tour around our interests, and we saw a huge variety of destinations, many of which were off the beaten track. We saw the Merkato, where we were able to get out and walk around. We spent time driving to the top of the mountain where we enjoyed a traditional meal with a family while we watched the matriarch make coffee—from rinsing or roasting to grinding to brewing. Biruk arranged for us to see pottery being made and also gave us a detailed tour of the national museum. His expertise is wide and deep, answering our many questions. It was really interesting to see Holy Trinity church. All along the way we learned about Ethiopian culture and history. I learned so much in a short time. I cannot recommend this tour enough.

Biruk was an incredible tour guide! He took us all over Addis - the Mercato, the National Museum, the Holy Trinity Cathedral, the view up Entoto Park. All along the way, Biruk told us stories about what we were seeing - with topics ranging from some of the oldest and most important fossils found connecting our species to our evolutionary ancestors, to the origin of coffee culture, to the country’s rulers of the last 150 years. Ethiopia’s history is rich and fascinating and Biruk is an endless source of information! At the end of our tour, we also fit in a very pleasant stop for coffee and endless injera and various yummy things, which was a major highlight for me. Definitely recommend Biruk and this tour to any visitors!
