Very well organized tour, a guide with passion for their work. The plan was always clearly communicated and adjusted with to fit the mood of the group. Even when there was some unexpected bumps in the tour outside of the control of the agency, the plan was adjusted immediately and without issues. The tour was pretty condensed for a little over a week, so we felt like we saw a lot of Ethiopia in a short time, but each day was still relaxed and not stressful.
Simply recommended, I would make the trip again immediately. Unique culture and friendly very religious people. Everything is well organized and planned.
my guide was Getnet who was very helpful and friendly, everything he did worked out fine including the 2 airport transfers, he even made an unscheduled detour to a procession because of a local holiday, it was a great experience
After having travelled to Ethiopia with Getnet Mulugeta years ago, this year I was drawn back to the longing. I wanted to know what had happened after all the reports: I was very impressed by the lively life in the city. Coming from Madagascar, this was a valuable stopover for three nights. Where three years ago there were still stalls, there are now modern commercial buildings. Back then we travelled to the south with four grandchildren (aged between 7 and 13). A great experience, today we were grandpa and grandma with friends and Getnet alone. From the amusement park to the disco and tourist show, all in just three days. Hardly any other city has more contrasts to offer, the best hotels, good food, at reasonable prices. We are full of praise. I have so much to tell...
