Perfect Way to Start My Trip in Ethiopia! - I joined this tour straight from the airport on the day I arrived. It was my first time in Ethiopia, and I’m so glad I booked this for my first day. We visited museums, saw monuments all around the city, and I learned a lot about the country’s history.
The tour was packed with great experiences—checking out the massive Merkato, enjoying local coffee, and even getting to try a home cooking experience. My guide Joseph was super kind and flexible, always adjusting the tour based on what I was interested in. I also got to try local liqueur, which was a fun surprise!
It was a fun, safe, and really fulfilling experience. Highly recommended!

Layover tour with Joseph - Spent a long layover day with Joseph our knowledge tour guide and Bart our driver in Addis Ababa. Great tour in terms of locations covered, transportation , detailed information provided. The coffee stop and market were the highlights for me. Would definitely recommend this tour (Ask for Joseph) if you find yourself on a layover in Addis Ababa.

"Unforgettable Addis Ababa Experience: History, Food, and Shopping Delight! - 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!

The best places in addis ababa in hours - 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!!

Addis Ababa city tour-Feb.21/2024 - 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.

One Day to Know Addis Ababa - 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.
