Poor food, worse wine, fantastic scenery, friendly people, a plethora of birds, some unique endemic species of flora and fauna, some very dodgy hotel service and the worst tour operator's arrivals procedure ever because the local tour guide is not allowed into the arrivals area!
Sue Guthries love for Ethiopia is obvious in her whole attitude and interaction with the people. She does far more than we normally expect of a guide. We were lucky to have had her. Thank you, tour operator.
Ethiopia, everything starts from here... Ethiopia is a truly unique. Everything begins in Ethiopia.The trip takes you through the historical and cultural aspects of northern Ethiopia - tracing the beginnings of Christianity through different empires and kingdoms.The natural environment is spectacular and the long drives are simply a pleasure as you take in the magnificent scenery - when you step out and walk through it and meet the local flora and fauna - it just increases the impact - the Gelada Monkeys are a highlight for sure.This trip requires physical fitness to fully enjoy what it offers - if you are lucky enough to have this and have the chance - take the opportunity to discover a truly amazing place.
