We travelled to Addis Ababa, Lalibela and Danakil in February 2024. We had two day cultural/historical day tours in Addis Ababa... our guide and drivers took such good care of us. Our Danakil tour was UNBELIEVABLE. We took so many pictures and even we can't believe that we had such beautiful views. The time in Lalibela was also life changing as we felt that we stepped back in time to see the fervent Ethiopian Orthodox Church culture and practices. Overall, we had a very positive experience with our tour guides, tour organizers, drivers and all support staff. They ALL took good care of us, responded to our questions, concerns, needs and approached us with confident, kind and open hospitality. I highly recommend going on these tours... while there were uncomfortable moments, the experiences and memories will stay with you forever. Words and pictures cannot capture what we experienced. I will also say that it was humbling to learn about what Ethiopian people in this region have endured throughout their lives. I'm glad we went on this trip with Ethio Tours and Travel.
