WHAT AN AMAZING TOUR! - With only 24 hours in Addis Ababa this was SUCH a good use of our time. We saw so much: Mount Entoto, the National Museum - Lucy! We had a delicious authentic lunch and felt privileged to get take to our guides favourite pastry store & several amazing coffee tastings along the way. Our guide was really sweet and super informative. Very grateful for this experience.

Luxury Tour in Addis Abeba: very interesting and thourough. - We had a wonderful day in Addis Abeba. Very comfortable in a luxury car and easy to make arrangements and keep in touch. We saw so many interesting things: Lucy with an exceptional museum guide, a view of the city from the hilltop forest, the coffee making process, 3 beautiful coffee shops and a delicious traditional lunch. Plus a drive through the open market and a wonderful commentary of significant landmarks and how they relate to the history of the city. Gashton was just amazing and so highly recommended. I will be sure to contact him the next time that I stop over in this city, for other interesting tours.

Opening of my eyes to creation - I had a wonderful enjoyable day with my guide Gashaw he was very knowledgeable, very courteous and patient with me. He was extremely clear. He even went back to places where I miss pictures at so I can make sure that I got the pictures that I want it. He took me to a wonderful restaurant for a traditional Ethiopian meal taught me how to eat Ethiopian style. I consider him now from my experience with him that day as a friend. I invited him to come to the USA and stay in my home. I live in the Metropolitan New York City area. It was a pleasure doing business with your company a highly recommend anybody coming to Ethiopia to consider you guys first signed by walter leak

Engaging and informative glimpse of Addis Ababa and Ethiopia - An excellent experience throughout. Our Tour Guide, Mr Gash, is exceptionally knowledgable, and educated our group about Addis Ababa and Ethiopia’s rich and diverse history and culture. I would highly recommend and look forward to working with him again in future.

Great experience - It would have been impossible to visit such a large and complex city in one day. Walk in Ethiopia Tour and Travel was able to organise a great tour, at a very affordable price, with a very serious but professional and friendly guide.
It was a great tour. Thank you Habtamu for such an impeccable job.

Jam packed, interesting, friendly - I just had a day-long stopover in Addis and wanted to explore the city a little bit. This tour was a really great, informative day out that’s given me an entirely new insight to Ethiopia and Addis! Minile was friendly, overflowing with knowledge and really helpful. As a solo female traveller I felt really safe and supported. Definitely recommend!

SEEING ADDIS ABABA DURING EASTER - I arrived in Ethiopia during the Coptic Easter holiday, but in spite of this, the tour organisers made a good effort to show me the city. Entoto was impressive, but Marcato was scanty due to the season. I had a bonus visit to the AU Headquarters. I also met Lucy at the National Museum.

Great way to discover Addis Ababa - It was a good way to discover Addis in a different way. Excellent guide and nice car. Very diverse program: fresh air in the mountains, learn abortus Ethiopia's rich and proud history. Also Merkato and Tomaco Coffee in the old French La Gare area was Lovely. Special thanks to guide Gashaw who passionately answered all my questions all Day.

Two of the planned visits were closed out of the three - Two of the planned tours were closed , we would have liked to visit the museum where Lucy 's fossil skeleton is located and many others . It is not very professional to accept to present a tour while the museum was closed.
For $100 per person I expected better.
