5.00On our four-week trip through Ethiopia, we had an excellent tour guide with Getnet. His knowledge and competence impressed us greatly. He brought us closer to the land, history and people. We would love to travel to Ethiopia again under Getnet's guidance. Thank you for the wonderful time.

5.00We are traveling with a Womo group from Switzerland to South Africa, Getnet has guided and accompanied us through Ethiopia. He is a very dedicated person, very trustworthy and a good organizer. Everything worked out fine. Since we could not drive ourselves in the north of Ethiopia for safety reasons, a plane and bus trip was organized. Getnet, his agency and his home country Ethiopia are highly recommended.

5.00On a tour with the RV to Africa, the wait for the shipment became an experience thanks to Getnet. Always flexible, ultra-fast, full of ideas and empathy for all our wishes and worries. Thanks to Getnet, the mood and atmosphere was always positive and optimistic despite all the challenges. Ethiopia was quite foreign to us and now we are deeply immersed in the cultures of the cradle of humanity. Thanks also for organizing Gerd's birthday. If Ethiopia, then only with Getnet!!!

5.00A really interesting trip. Thanks to the excellent guide Getnet, we learned about many aspects of the country. Whether it was culture, history, religion or the population, our guide explained all of this and much more to us. We are already thinking about traveling to the south of the country with him.
A fascinating country - get more with Getnet!

5.00A great and individual journey. Very competent tour guide who has more than well adapted to our needs. Communication was easy as he speaks very good German. Due to the individuality we were very close to the Ethiopian culture and could get to know the country and people. It certainly wasn't our last tour with him. The tour guide and his Enterprise is highly recommended!!
