An unforgettable 14-days journey through Ethiopia
We booked a private tour in Ethiopia, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable travel experiences we have ever had.
At the beginning, we asked if Biniam could join us for the Danakil Depression tour, and we are so glad he did. We spent amazing days together exploring one of the most unique places on Earth. Our chief in Danakil, Mr. Tsegaye, was fantastic always cheerful, funny, and full of energy. He also prepared delicious meals for us every day, which made the experience even more enjoyable. A big thank you to the entire Danakil team for their excellent care and hospitality.
After Danakil, we fly to the Omo Valley and continued with a private tour. Every day brought a new and fascinating experience as we visited different tribes. We spent more than three hours with many of the communities, talking with them, learning about their traditions, culture, and way of life. These authentic interactions were the highlight of our trip. We also had many opportunities to take wonderful photographs and create unforgettable memories.
Our tour lasted 14 days and exceeded all of our expectations. We visited Ethiopia during the low season, so there were very few tourists around. In fact, during our time in the Omo Valley, we were the only tourists there, which made the experience feel even more special and personal.
The rest of our journey took us to Lalibela, Gondar, and the Simien Mountains. The landscapes were breathtaking, and the history was incredible. The rock-hewn churches of Lalibela, the historical treasures of Gondar, and the stunning nature of the Simien Mountains showed us how rich Ethiopia is in history, culture, and natural beauty.
Everything was organized comfortably and professionally from start to finish. What impressed us most was the kindness of the entire team. They did not treat us like customers but like close friends. Their warmth, dedication, and genuine hospitality made this trip truly unforgettable.
Thank you to everyone who helped make our Ethiopian adventure so special. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic, well-organized, and life-changing experience in Ethiopia.

One of the best experiences of my life!!!
Everything was absolutely incredible. We stayed at the lodge, and I truly felt the experience was more than worth it. The hotels were wonderful, the support staff were very attentive, and the guide was exceptional. He was extremely friendly, always on time, in a great mood, and did everything possible to ensure we had the best experiences and the best views. He never hesitated to search for animals and drive around with us to find them. He was truly outstanding. The vehicle was always clean and well maintained. As for the food, everything was delicious—real, quality food with a great variety considering the circumstances. We did not experience any problems at all; everything was excellent. I believe the experience offered excellent value for the money spent. One of the travel days was quite long, but there were always stops available for restroom breaks, and the restrooms were consistently clean.

It was an amazing 4 days and 3 nights trip! I initially thought the food and accommodations wouldn't be great, but they turned out to be fantastic thr
Fantastic! This guide was very responsible and had a great sense of humor. He kept saying he couldn't find any lions, but then he showed us many lions. Thank you to him for giving us such an unforgettable experience.

Everything was well organized
Everything was great, the cps, our lodges, the chef that prepared delicious food everyday and also our driver who answered all pur questions and made sure we saw animals. Ivone was very helpful and gave us all informations and helped us with airport tranfers. It was a shared tour with another operator and it exceeded our expectations. Even though there was a problem with the jeep it could be fixed pretty fast.

David was polite and accommodating, and kept us up to date on timing and road issues.
Overall a good value and experience. We had to wait a bit for our driver to pick us up because he had passengers that needed to be dropped off at several locations, but he was courteous when explaining the situation and I was pleased with the communication. He was a safe driver and made sure all passengers used the correct allotted time for breaks, as many of us had flights to catch.
