We had a lovely tour experience with Yonas who was very safe driver and guide The views, especially near the Portuguese Bridge, were breathtaking. Yonas was very knowledgeable about Ethiopian history, culture, and wildlife. And he was also a very experienced driver who made us feel safe throughout our trip. I appreciated his great eyes for birds and other wildlife, and his willingness to stop and point them out to us along the trip. We also got to see a lot of geladas (amazing!), both on the way to the monastery and near the Portuguese Bridge.
We were very lucky -- even though we went in the rainy season (June) the weather was perfect! No rain until after we started the drive back to Addis. This made the hikes easier, but there were definitely some rocky areas that would have been quite slippery in the rain.
Definitely worth it for the Day and we do recommend Yonas.
