Lalibela, Axum, Danakil und Omo Valley 8 TAGE

Just finished the 8 day tour and honestly had the best time ever! The Ethio Travel and Tours travel team are so amazing and really helpful with sorting you out for work / travel plans, and Muller was the best tour guide ever. Can’t recommend this tour enough, loved every second!

Au vu de certain commentaires, j 'avais quelques appréhensions à l'idée de reserver avec ETT. Mais finalement tout s'est bien passé, tout a été très bien organisé! Une grande variétés de magnifiques paysages, des chauffeurs et des guides expérimentés. Il y a tellement de choses a voir, les arrêts sont quelquefois trop courts, il faut également faire face, notamment lors de l'excursion à Dallol et volcan, d'un certain manque de confort mais c'est l'aventure!!!! Thanks you Sunight for your professionalism and for being there for me at anytime, thanks to you i had a great experience!

On day 2 when we were mistakenly sent to the Tigray cliff church, not Axum. A 200m high non-trivial free-climb along a cliff face with a ‘certain death as reward for any slip’ (their sales pitch) could not have been more inappropriate for a Type 2 diabetic with 2 children. None of us made it up, and the experience was traumatic. ETT offered a food tour, meal and day trip as compensation, but to actually go to Axum was another $150pp. No-one was there to meet us in Axum, so we made our way ETT’s office, got booked into a hotel, and were given a driver and guide the day. The next morning we met the driver again at the ETT office. He offered a day out to see the excavations at Yahe for $120. Cash. But this was a only a 15 min ‘tour’ - we were dumped back at the ETT office @10.30 am. Then we received multiple phone calls and texts from Elias demanding we pay for the trip a third time. Two of us got food poisoning in the Danakil, so ETT agreed to delay our flights to Omo by day. But they ‘forgot’, so on Xmas day we were stranded at Addis airport. Eventually ETT’s owner (Elias) put us up in their staff digs. Christmas dinner was a take away from Pizza Hut and being hounded by stray dogs in the backstreets of Addis. The promised cookery course, day trip and meal never materialised. Much like ETT’s airport pick-ups. What should have been the holiday of a lifetime was instead a nightmarish experience of dealing with unresponsive, dishonest, incompetent cockwombles; ETT.
