About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- C9441FDlisat0 contributionsHighly RecommendedOn Sept 8 we had the privilege of being guided by Belete and his driver Hermes. Full day tour that was truly amazing! Belete was a fantastic guide who is knowledgeable, listened and was so accommodating with our needs. I have some physical challenges and they were both so kind and considerate that I did not feel like a burden. Highly recommended. He will show you Ethiopia in the best way possible.Written 8 January 2025
- Tidak-Apa-Apa0 contributionsGentle and informativeMy guide Dagim was very polite and gentle. Unfortunately we could not visit national museum to meet Lucy but he took us in other places. Lunch was arranged for Injera as per our request and Ethiopian coffee seremony after lunch as well. It must be tried.Written 5 January 2025
- kevinyT9733XD0 contributionsWonderful 100% recommendedMy friend and I had our Ethiopian organized by this tour agency from the 6th Nov till the 16th Nov: it was our first time in ethiopia and, overall, we enjoyed it, even though some aspects can be improved. The communication with the agency was really quick and efficient during the all time and our accommodations were good (budget option), except for the first one in Addis Ababa, where we spent two nights and both food and bathrooms (scarcely essential and with unstable hot water) were not the best. Our driver, Noah, was a nice guy and he used to provide adequate expatiations during the game drives Our programmed included a visit to Lake Chamo and Dorze village: they are not bad, but I think two days are too many and it's better to skip at least one of them and to have more time for Nech sar park and when we realized this during the trip, they told us it was not safe . I would have liked to spend more time in the park too but I accepted the advice of the company, So, on balance the lodge in Arba Minch was nice and the arrangement was super. Anyway, apart from the previous points, we had a good time.Written 31 December 2024
- V8247KSahmedm0 contributionsWonderful GuideThe company was very helpful in putting together a tour for us. When our flight got delayed 3 days they worked very hard trying to rebook everything and make sure we got the best options available. Unfortunately we missed out on a few of the awesome hotels, but that was not their fault at all. They did respond and try to make our trip as smooth as possible at all times. We loved all of our tours. We didn't enjoy the two lakes in south Ethiopia we went to as much, and would have skipped them altogether and spent more time on the trips, but Ziway lake stops were more strategic. Next time I come, I will choose to go to less places and spend more time in each place, for sure.Written 31 December 2024
- christinatE9281TE0 contributionsGenuine serviceOverall, it was a pleasant journey, especially because of the nice cost and the good quality of the resorts and camp! But still, some aspects for improvement e.g. inadequate information of guide are sent to us only one day advanced after repeatedly urge. Moreover, we choosed minivan but it seemed to old, the tire and battery of the Van both failed in the road, we waste many times to fix it up. In all, the journey of Tigray Tours but the other trip arrangements was ok!Written 31 December 2024
- ThembyTravels0 contributionsA Glimpse of EthopiaGood tour. Abe and George are absolutely amazing. Abe is very knowledgeable and explains Ethiopian history/culture with passion and excitement. George is an excellent driver. I’m impressed by the communication and punctuality of the tour. As a solo, female traveller- safety was a big concern for me and both Abe and George ensured my safety and comfort throughout the tour. Thank you gents, keep up the good work.Written 29 December 2024
- eliasmH9205UB0 contributionsSuper on it!Ethiopia was my wife's dream and was on her bucket list . I was apprehensive booking this tour but Neway & Aman from the office planned our 12 day Ethiopian Tours in great detail so that we could experience the real Ethiopia. We saw all the best Ethiopian destinations and every day brought new experiences. We stayed at different lodges & hotels , all were 5 star and offered different types of accommodation all had views.We travelled in a land cruiser which was comfortable even on the most uneven dirt roads.Our driver Sis made every attempt to get us up close to all the villages. All i can say is that Aman Ethiopia Tours fulfilled their part in making our dream come true.It was reliable and value for money and will certainly recommend them to all my friends. Once again thank you.Written 28 December 2024
- E5945IJrafaeld0 contributionsI have done the 7-day tours in Ethiopia these last days!It was one of my most memorable trips ever, such an amazing experience. Aman Ethiopia Tours has been really professional, responsive and kind from A to Z. The key factor is definitely Josepsh, he is the man, a must-have guide! He is very skilled, an excellent spotter and tracker, most of the time the first on site even he is so friendly with the tribes of south Ethiopia and all the local guide know him…). Last but not least as human being he is very friendly !Written 26 December 2024
- 641mandag0 contributionsAmazing Experience In Ethiopia!Amazing Experience In Ethiopia! My trip was excellent.Ethiopia is a beautiful country and Ethiopians are so nice and warmhearted. My advisor Yihun speaks fluent English well and he is professional and kind, arranging everything well in my trip.Niko is the best driver guide. He has sharp eyes to find birds and he knows the better places for view. Though my travel seemed really short, it was an unforgettable experience. I would like to recommend my operator to my families and friends. And I wish I can go to Ethiopia again with Aman Ethiopia Tours.Written 26 December 2024
- Maiko S0 contributionsThe first day in Addis Ababa was amazing!The tour was amazing and my guide Dagi and a driver Nico are very friendly and knowledgeable! The tour day was the first day of Addis Ababa so everything was new to me and learned many histories about Ethiopia thanks to Dagi’s detailed explanation. In the market, I found accessory cases and I loved them! It was a very satisfying tour and I highly recommend it. Thank you so much for the valuable experiences.Written 26 December 2024
- fmpg20240 contributionsOnce in a Lifetime ExperienceAman tours was professional, organized, efficient and very responsive/helpful with pretrip planning and booking. Everyone we worked with including day guides and especially our overall guide/driver Sisay were wonderful! We did the OMO Valley 6 day trip. What an amazing experience! And a 2 day trip to Lalibela. Definitely recommend touring Ethiopia and going with Aman Tours.Written 26 December 2024
- DrakXXX0 contributionsEthiopia at the glanceWe just got back from the 6 Days Omo Valley Tour and it was an incredible adventure! Dagi, our guide, was a true professional, making our trip not only interesting but also very exciting. Every day was filled with amazing discoveries - from the picturesque views of Ethiopia from Mount Entoto to visiting unique villages and getting to know the culture of different people. We saw everything from ancient historical sites like Tiya to the colors and atmosphere of the vibrant markets and villages where the Hamer and other tribes live. A boat trip on Lake Chamo was especially memorable, where we met crocodiles and different birds! The feeling of immersion in the culture and life of the locals was simply breathtaking. I recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the real Ethiopia and enjoy its unique heritage. Many thanks to Dagi for the amazing organization!Written 7 December 2024
- G4701TTrichardd0 contributionsBest trip I’ve been on for a long time!This tour was amazing! It combines fantastic cultural, religious and nature experiences all in one day and gives a flavour of what an incredible country Ethiopia is. Joseph the guide and George the driver were brilliant and really catered for us specifically. We became great friends by the end of the trip. Go on this trip if you want to feel looked after, informed, entertained and amazed……..Written 5 December 2024
- T1023IBrobr0 contributionsPerfect Day TripHad a 23-hour layover in Addis Ababa and wanted to make the most of it with this tour. It went above my expectations. It was very safe. Any locals we encountered were some of the friendliest people I’ve met traveling. The nature we overlooked was so peaceful and calming. Sis was a great guide who knew the area like the back of his hand. When we hit traffic and I thought I couldn’t make it to the airport in time, he knew the alternate route and the ins and outs to get it working. Great company to be with and very knowledgeable and friendly. I don’t think there was a better way to spend my day in Ethiopia.Written 4 December 2024
- G4701TTrichardd0 contributionsBrilliant tour bringing Ethiopia to real lifeThis tour was fantastic. Joseph, the guide, was brilliant in explaining the background info for the sites but what made it special was his insight and explanation other Ethiopian way of life. The food was excellent typical Ethiopian food and we had a great laugh with the driver and the guide. Go on this trip if you want a flavour of the real Ethiopia!Written 3 December 2024

We had an amazing time exploring Addis Ababa with Aman Ethiopia Tours & Travel! Our guide, Jocy, and driver, George, made this experience unforgettable. From the moment we were picked up, we knew we were in good hands.
Jocy’s deep knowledge of Addis Ababa’s history and culture added so much value to the tour. She brought each site to life, whether we were visiting the National Museum or walking through Merkato, the largest open-air market in Africa. Jocy’s enthusiasm was infectious, and she made sure we experienced the true essence of Addis.
George, our driver, was excellent. He navigated the busy streets of Addis with ease, and we always felt safe and comfortable. The van was clean and spacious, making the entire trip very relaxing.
This tour was the perfect combination of sightseeing, hands-on culinary experience, and shopping. Jocy and George made it a seamless and enjoyable adventure. I highly recommend Aman Ethiopia Tours & Travel for anyone wanting to experience the best of Addis Ababa!

Not just a tour - open hearted hospitality.
Our last day in Ethiopia, we arranged the tour last minute on a Sunday and Aman, his guide Neway and the driver George were beyond obliging. Too late for a city cooking class, they took us to the home of a friend where we cooked injera, roasted coffee and ate in their home. An experience to treasure forever. Thank you!!

I went to Addis Ababa for a custom street photography trip during a long layover. The guide was very accommodating and helpful, we even went to get me a haircut. I explored the markets and saw the sunset from the mountain. The guide tolerantly did everything i asked including stopping to take photos of random trees. I highly recommend this friendly team!

If you have little time, visit the best places in Addis Ababa with Joseph, at the appointed time Joseph and his driver looked for us, and they took us to the best places, they took us to eat at a typical place (but always asking if we wanted to do it or what we wanted to eat), at all times he made an effort for us to understand what he was telling us since we do not speak English!! It is the second excursion we have done with Joseph, first the park awash and then the city tour, very satisfied!!! Now we have a friend in Ethiopia!!

The tour covered all major sightseeings in Addis Ababa from markets to museums. I have learnt lots of history about the country, people, culture and local customs. My guide Yoseph has full experience of showing me around his city and country. We tasted the local coffee and hiked the Mount Entoto. It was my highlight during my visit in Ethiopia.

City tour was excellent with Joseph and a great driver. Leisurely time to spend at each site, and was not rushed. Joseph answered all questions with great detail regarding the sites and the city of Addis Ababa. Highly recommend, and the local lunch stop was excellent.

We spent the afternoon seeing Addis during our long layover with Joseph. He was great. He pick us up on time and showed us all the highlights and was very accommodating. He had good knowledge that he was able to share and made the tour interesting. He got us back to our hotel right on time so we could get to our next flight. It was a nice way to make the most of a layover in Ethiopia.
