What To Expect
Mount Entoto
We offer the city walking or car with driver/guide where you’ll meet the local and visit all the best sightseeing with coffee and lunch breaks on your way, which will lead by a tour guide, as an escort. Start the day looking down on Addis Ababa from Entoto Mountain, the capital of Ethiopia before Addis Ababa. Here you will have panoramic views of the city with fresh air from the eucalyptus forests. Here you will visit the Entoto Maryam church and museum.
Addis Ababa Museum
After the Entoto Hill visit, proceed down to Addis Ababa via Shiro Meda, the city’s largest market for traditional clothes and campus of Addis Ababa University to the ethnographic museum, with great displays of the many cultures of Ethiopia, housed in the former palace of Haile-Selassie. You will then continue with a visit to the National Museum, where Ethiopia’s oldest resident, Lucy, is housed. Before you head to Mercato, you will visit the Red Terror Museum and receive a tour in English from a survivor of the Red Terror. It was a very informative and heart-breaking account of the recent history of Ethiopia.

5.00Friendly and informative pre trip communication, due to immigration issues (no free transit visa if layover is less than 8 hours) actual tour wasn't possible, so this review is based on pre trip communication.

5.00Phenomenal. Thomas & Haben did a great job and were willing to adjust to my needs. Had to be a tad pushy sometimes to make sure we get everything and they were kind and accommodating.
A great insightof Addis with a professional guide.

5.00Although we were notably delayed coming out of the airport, our guide, Eyob, and driver, Tommy, waited for us to begin our city tour. It is well worth having a guide, as Addis Ababa is definitely a place you don’t want to wander about alone. The guide was professional, knowledgeable, informative, and flexible. The visit to the Addis Ababa Museum (entry included in the participation fee) was impressive and lasted a full two hours, which passed unnoticed. Although the program also included a stop at Mount Entoto (entry fee included), we did not stop but drove past, getting only a brief glimpse. As we were tired from our journey from the Seychelles, we did not object and opted instead to visit the old train station for coffee. Note that coffee or tea was not included in the price. In summary, we gained a wonderful insight into Addis Ababa, thanks to our tour guides. That was exactly the goal we had in signing up for the tour.

5.00I joined ETT the city tour. Guide Getaneh and driver Kemal are so kind. They guided me to Somaliland embassy and Tomoka coffee (there are my offer), museum(Lucy), view-good hill ,and Addis Mercato. The guide gave me many knowledge about Ethiopian history, coffee and culture. Driver drove safely to the places which I want and always care about our safety. As Using local taxi and sightseeing by yourself is quite difficult and takes much time for foreigners, this tour($50) is so reasonable and can save your time.
Nice day spent with Eyob

5.00Eyob gave a nice tour of the ethnological museum and we spent some time at entoto Park. I had already seen many of the other attractions so it was nice to be able to customize. Was nice that he spoke good English and we could converse on things outside of just points of interest, really enjoyed sharing thoughts and beliefs.
From beginning to end it was the perfect tour for us

5.00Our time spent with Eyob, Naol, and Amir was truly exceptional. Their warm hospitality and deep knowledge and passion made our journey through Addis Ababa an enriching and memorable experience. Exploring the National Museum with Eyob was enlightening; his insights into Ethiopian history brought the exhibits to life. At Mount Entoto, the panoramic views were awe-inspiring, and navigating the bustling mercado was a delightful immersion into local culture. The authentic street food added a flavorful touch to our adventure. The cultural evening was the epitome of immersion. Traditional dances, music, and cuisine created a vibrant atmosphere - a definite highlight and recommendation to all. Their passion for sharing Ethiopia's rich and diverse heritage was evident, making our experience both educational and enjoyable. We are profoundly grateful for this enriching experience and eagerly anticipate our return to delve even deeper into the other wonders of Ethiopia with these knowledgeable and friendly guides.
