Awesome tour. Once in a lifetime experience. Slept outdoors, under the stars. Trekked to a volcano. Tour guides were very considerate of each guest and very attentive. Easy meals, simple sleeping arrangement, made it back at scheduled time. No complaints.

Ethiopia is an amazing country with its fascinating history and impressive culture and our guide Robel has done his very best to show us every corner of his lovely country to us. Although we had joined an 8 day tour, we could visit many of the important sights, thanks to Ethio Travel and Tours for the correct itinerary. The hotels were all decent 3 stars in good locations and flights between long distances helped us a lot to spare more time for sightseeing. I really enjoyed my time in Ethiopia.

Don’t be scammed by ETT! I booked a private tour for 2 people for 2 nights to Danakil Depression with a man named Eliyakim, who was my fixer for Ethiopia. We were charged $1,450 USD/person for a private tour. But when we arrived in Semera to start the tour, we were told that it was a group tour with 4 others. Fine - that’s ok but we were not offered a refund on the private tour price. I found out afterwards that the other group tourists paid $350. Outrageous and serious abuse of client pricing and tricking us with a bait and switch.
