Description

Northern Ethiopia The northern Ethiopia is also Known as the Historical Circuit, there are over two millennia’s worth of ancient treasures scattered about, from giant obelisks and hidden tombs at Aksum to a collection of castles in and around Gonder, to unique churches in Lalibela, Tigray, Lake Tana and many other places. Not to be outdone by human mastery, Mother Nature really let her creative juices flow here. The Danakil Depression, an esteemed destination among adventure travellers, features a permanent lava lake and a bright-yellow sulphuric plain, while the Simien Mountains wrinkle the land with canyons and peaks with a beauty you’ll struggle to find anywhere else in Africa.

Memorable trip

About this team: Aman and his team strive to provide the best they can. We saw lovely sights of active volcanoes, stayed outdoors, very unique 12th century churches ( that have been visited by both Bill Gates and George Bush). We got to taste healthy which food everywhere which is very healthy despite awesome taste. We had a sick baby with us but the team went above and beyond to get her to the doctors and pharmacy which I truly appreciate. Both Yihun and Sisai did great! More than anything, I totally appreciated Aman's customer oriented mind set. The tour was a memorable one at the very least! About Ethiopia : look, please go in with an open mind. Many parts of the country are untouched by modern societies and precisely is the charm (this does come with us own issues but more about that later). You can visit ancient tribes and see how they live etc. (Tip: take extra old clothes to donate if you can. It goes a long way for them). As a part of the tour you choose, you might be traveling distant lands for hours on a daily basis. Prepare to go in with an open mind to truly experience the wonder of that. Issues ( prepare accordingly for a fabulous trip): Ethiopia has mostly bad roads outside of the main towns it's really dusty in some parts of the country so carry sun glasses, sun screen, and a hat). Carry swimsuits to bathe in salt and fresh water as well. You might be hours away from a doctor so if you have kids, or for yourself, carry basic meds. If you are used to glamping with fancy bathrooms, talk to the host before the trip starts so you can plan accordingly. Very few clean bathrooms along the way to some of the remote places. Limited food options with clean places to eat in the remote areas. None of these are restrictions to traveling but if you are a kind of person who is very focused on material comfortable, aggressive planning is needed to visit these untouched parts of the world!

A wonderful experience

Thank you Aman Ethiopia for the most wonderful tour. This was an experience I will treasure forever. My tour guides made me feel as if I was family. Their professionalism, manners, and knowledge of the country is a 10 out 10. I can’t wait to return to tour Aksum and the Tigre region. Thank you once again for the wonderful memories. O. Williams

Northern Ethiopia Tour

I would like to thank Aman, Yihun, Neway and other local tours guides for that great north ethiopia trip. I will never forget magnificent Blue Nile falls, the biggest Lake Tana, the well-preserved royal compounds in Gondar, simien mountains national park with a unique wildlife and breath-taking views on a landscape and the UNESCO World Heritage ancient rock hewn churches of Lalibela.

17 Day Roadtrip..... Experience of a lifetime!

Amaan organised every detail of our trip to the highest standard - great car, driver and guides. There was also room for flexibility and they accommodated all of our last minute changes with ease. Thumbs up to our driver Daniel who always ensured the most amazing cultural experiences and our safety. Trustworthy and reliable, we highly recommend a road trip in Ethiopia with Aman.

Great custom 2 weeks North Ethiopia tour

We (a group of 7 friends) ordered a custom 2 weeks North Ethiopia tour based on our own itinerary. Aman Tours has performed well, fulfilled all its obligations, done all in time and in a proper way. I can recommend this tour operator for anybody visiting Ethiopia. Some unexpected problems did happened (for example our first car got road accident on its way to airport to pickup our group and second car got a boiling radiator while leaving Addis Ababa), but Aman Tours made every effort to overcome all problems and succeeded. When I was going to leave Ethiopia after our tour I was denied to board my plane due to technical error of Ethiopian Airlines (my ticket was erroneously marked as refunded). Aman Tours greatly helped me in this unusual situation by booking me a hotel and assisting in my negotiations with Ethiopian Airlines. With their help I have been received new ticket free of charge and left Ethiopia by the next flight to Moscow. P.S. My special thanks to our great guide Abrham.

best round trip ever

A fantastic and unforgettable experience! I never thought it was possible to see so much authentic culture of Ethiopia as a tourist. Our tour guides Yoseph and Noah were always thrilled to show us the most beautiful parts of the country, constantly surprised us with local specialties and always made sure that we are informed about everything. Especially Yoseph has an unbelievable knowledge about every aspect of the country, you can ask him everything. It was possible to stop along the road any time to see something we were interested in, and we only stayed in the best accommondations available. I really enjoyed the whole trip and hope to be back to Ethiopia soon!

Ethiopia is worth more than one visit!

Our 16 day round trip including danakil depression with aman ethiopia tours was far beyond expectation. Everything was organized perfectly. Our guide joseph and driver noah offered us so many opportunities to become familiar with the ethiopian culture and way of living. They are an awesome team. Even the longest drive from one sight to the other became enjoyable. We fell in love with the country and the friendly people and definetively need to come back.

Very Good 9 Day Northern Tour

We are experienced travelers and usually don't use tour services, but given there were many things we wanted to try and accomplish, we thought this the best way. We did our research, and used the latest Brandt guide (which is a must for 1st timers) as a constant resource. We had a very good sense of what we wanted to do/see and the route (East to West vs. common West to East). We had a rough sense of the accommodations as well. We initially only wanted Aman for transportation but eventually decided to utilise him a bit more. Our trip included Addis, Lalibela, Axum, Gondar, Simien Mtn., Bahir Dar. Aman was very good in working with us to included what we wanted and customising based on our needs/wants. In each city he effectively has partnerships with tour operators (who in turn have relationships with hotels and restaurants) which on the upside helps in scheduling and locking down things (for example in Bahir Dar we wanted 2 nights a an upscale lakeside resort, and on our own had been told it was booked - but Aman's local partner was able to get us the reservation), on the downside you run the risk of an uneven experience (disinterested tour guides etc.) However, we had no issues with the majority of important things like being picked up on time (driver's were often early), being greeted and treated well, and all things being as expected. Aman himself was exceptional at making sure that in real time logistics were running smoothly. We always got a text about the next steps, who was coming to get us, confirming times and even asking about how the trips itself was going. He was very much on top of our every move. We even had an experience where one of the restaurants was not quite working out, and he quickly got both the local agent and the restaurant manager involved within a short time to straighten it all out. Nothing came off with a hitch. From flights, to local transport, to hotel accommodations, to payment (all were prepaid through Aman), so needless to say all done smoothly! All in all we had a very good experience and would recommend you look into a discussion with Aman about his tours! BTW our favorite tour guide was Brook who gave us an awesome Addis Tour especially in the Merkato! If you want a super fun romp through the Merkato...none better!

Truly amazing and stunning tours of Ethiopia

We just finished our 7-day tours in northern Ethiopia and were super and well organized private tours. Our first visit to Ethiopia was wonderful from Amanuel, a very efficient and knowledgeable travel officer. Everything on the itinerary was followed accordingly. Nothing's so much trouble for Aman. He made sure we were comfortable. When planning your next trip to Ethiopia, book with Aman Ethiopia, Aman will guide you in planning an amazing itinerary and is also very quick to respond to emails and inquiries. Thank you, Aman, Ethiopia and your teams, from the bottom of our hearts and we look forward to being with you again on our future journeys
