Ethiopia Omo-Valley!! - I went on a multi day trip to Ethiopia with my wife and our grown son. We could not be more thrilled with almost the entire trip. I say almost... read more only due to a weather delay we experienced in New York on way back to Texas. That aside, Ethiopia was incredible. The booking process was made easy by the owner, George. Any questions or concerns we had on our approaching trip, he was always there to answer the phone, provide updates and adjust our itinerary as needed. He made this long distance trip seem almost effortless and at no point did he seem irritated. Sorry about some of those late night questions 🙂 David was our driver for throughout our trip and what a great gentle soul he is. He took us to many different villages and showed us all the points of interest along the way. The food was awesome, the people were beautiful in every way, and if I could suggest just one place to anyone looking for an adventure, give Ethiopia a serious consideration.

  We are two girl friends who got in contact with George based on excellent online reviews from previous clients. From the very beginning George was extremely professional and accommodating, answering... read more our emails in a matter of hours and creating the perfect itinerary for us!

In Ethiopia, Shigo was our guide and he was such a blessing! His deep knowledge of cultures, languages and tribes in the Omo Valley allowed us to have the most wonderful experience! Shigo is very informative, accommodating, respectful and sweet and he is always welcome in all the tribes, which makes his guests also welcome into the local communities. This subsequently makes your experience as authentic as possible - you get to interact with the tribe members, share stories (being himself from the Banna tribe, Shigo speaks many of the tribal languages), sing with them, visit their huts, take pictures with them, ask them questions, etc.

With regard to logistics, everything was very well organized. We stayed in very good hotels and the restaurants for our lunch were chosen taking into consideration our “Western stomachs”. George was available on the phone at all times and he quickly and efficiently sorted out a couple of mishaps we encountered during our trip.

If you are looking for an authentic, safe and hassle-free experience in Ethiopia, we strongly recommend Exciting Ethiopian Tours!!

  Exciting Ethiopia Tours made Ethiopia an Unforgettable Experience - Cant wait to go back! - I've traveled alot. Many countries. Ethiopia was one of the best places I ever visited. It is amazing and humbling. I can say my experience was awsome because of George... read more and Fitsum from Exciting Ethiopia Tours. I contacted George after reading about his wonderful tours and was convinced I made the right decision to use him to book all my hotels, tour guides and excursions. We went to Northern Ethiopia first to see Lalibela and Gondar. George made all the arrangements with local guides in each city to meet us at the airport, take us on a tour and drop us off at the hotel in the evening. All meals and hotels were included and George was so flexible in customizing our tour based on the time we had. George's brother Fitsum met us in Southern Ethiopia for the second half of our magical trip. We visited 5 tribes and it was so humbling to see other lifestyles and how happy people can be with less material things, It was so interesting because Fitsum is a member of the Bana tribe and the ease with which he could speak many dialects was fascinating. Exciting Ethiopia Tours made my experience one of the most unique adventures I've ever had in my life. A life-changing trip! Thanks George and Fitsum, and Calu, too, our driver throughout Southern Ethiopia.
