SimienEcoTours – a travel companion for truly special travel experiences!
Amidst turbulent times, we embarked on a two-week journey of discovery to southern Ethiopia with Franziska and her fantastic team at SimienEcoTours. We returned filled with profound experiences, touching encounters, and a desire to explore this fascinating country further. The service provided by SimienEcoTours was outstanding—from the initial communication and planning stages (and their willingness to accommodate our specific travel preferences) to the on-the-ground support that began the moment our driver and guide picked us up at the airport and lasted until our return flight. The local office also worked tirelessly behind the scenes to fulfill last-minute requests during the final two days of our trip. We are deeply grateful for this wonderful travel experience, which gave us unique insights into the country and its people (as well as its flora and fauna!). We wholeheartedly recommend the SimienEcoTours team to anyone planning a trip to Ethiopia—we felt exceptionally well looked after throughout the entire journey!

A trip organized by solid professionals
We traveled for over two weeks from north to south of Ethiopia, coinciding with the Easter rites and visiting sites of major historical, religious, and ethnic significance. Our overall assessment is largely positive.
Excellent organization, well-timed, interesting stops, and appropriate rest stops.
The entire staff, from trip preparation to communication, from the welcome to the intermediate, final, and post-trip phases, demonstrated extreme professionalism and preparation. Everyone proved to be excellent professionals, and even all the drivers were very friendly!
And yet, throughout the trip, we felt supported at all times by a superb guide, to whom we can only pay tribute and applaud for his preparation, his never dull conversations, and his wide-ranging expertise, which demands knowledge and passion for this work and for the country that hosted us. The country's richness of nuances would otherwise be difficult to grasp without such a solid and attentive partner, attentive to our desires and requests. Such well-organized trips make you want to return soon!

A perfectly organized trip! Everything was tailored to our specific needs, and we felt well taken ca
We’ve just returned from a four-week trip to Ethiopia and are absolutely amazed! We spent the first two weeks in the north, immersing ourselves in the fascinating history of the ancient kingdoms, followed by nearly two weeks in the south visiting various tribes.
The trip was perfectly organized and tailored exactly to our wishes — from the selection of sights to the accommodations. It was especially great that the same guide accompanied us the entire time. We were able to work together really well, and his knowledge of history and nature was extremely impressive. All in all, a fantastic trip — thanks for the great organization!

100% recommended company
Everything about this tour and company was great, from the planning process (they always reply fast and they will adjust everything to your needs) to the tour itself. My guide, Enisha, was really really nice and professional, I always felt comfortable and happy with her. I was travelling on my own on an unknown country, but she and all drivers always made me feel safe and confident. All hotels were good and clean (obviously some are better than other because of the remoteness), they all had good food, the cars were comfortable, and all the sights were great. I would definetly recommend SimienEcoTours.
