5/5

My wife and I had a wonderful time with Yhun and his team on a previous visit to
Ethiopia,so it was without hesitation that we asked him to put together a 6 day
trip to the Omo valley, which was the only part of the country that we did not see
on our last visit.
Yhun and his excellent driver Sisay drove us South on a very special adventure
in which we enjoyed wonderful visits to many special places enroute to the main
objective of our trip, which was to visit the various tribes that are scattered far and wide in the Omo valley.
Yhun and Sisay have been there many times before so they knew exactly where
we needed to be at the right time to maximise the time that we spent in the tribal
areas..
In particular we loved our visit to the Mursi's where the ladies wear their distinctive
lip plates and of course the highlight was the bull jumping by the young men of the
Hamer Tribe to prove their manliness.
This is not an everyday event but Yhun and Sisay went to great lengths to make
sure we did not miss this and had a first class seat.
Another highlight was the dugout canoe trip across the Omo river to visit another
Isolated tribal village hidden away in this wonderful part of the world.
All in all another wonderful trip with Liyu Tours, which we could not fault the organisation in any way.
We could not imagine any other company bettering this service.

Best Tour Guide Ever!!!
5/5

If you ever tour Ethiopia, I highly recommend Liyu Ethiopia Tour Company and Yhun Ejigu as your local tour guide and let me tell you why!!!!…..I had some unfortunate mishaps prior to departing on my original tour to Ethiopia over the Labor Day weekend and Yhun did everything in his power to accommodate me during the process. The trip was a birthday present to myself, but unfortunately, due to the circumstances, I was unable to travel. Because of my disappointment, Yhun was so very encouraging and uplifting and he was the first person to wish me Happy Birthday on my special day. I decided at that time that I wanted to reschedule the trip, but I was also looking forward to working with Yhun again as he had already exhibited exceptional, top-notch tour guide expertise.

After communicating my desires to Yhun via text, my role was complete and he took the reign from that point on, he prepared myself and my cousin a well-organized full itinerary for the two days that we were going to be in Addis and the 3 days that we would spend in Omo Valley including arranging our flights and he quoted me a total price which I must say was extremely reasonable that I absolutely could not refuse.

We were met at the airport by Yhun himself with a warm smile and a hearty welcome!!! After dropping our luggage at our lodging facility, our tour begin by having breakfast and coffee at one of the local Ethiopian eateries where the coffee beans were roasted and placed on our table so that we could smell the aroma as we ate and sipped…..Wow!!! What an experience and from there our tour only got better.
Yhun took us to see some of the main attractions of Addis starting with the beautiful view of the city from Mount Entoto, where we were able to take some amazing photos and videos; we toured the St. George’s Cathedral and Museum and purchased memorable souvenirs while there and also meeting one of the monks on duty, we dined at two of the local pubs and was introduced to some very tasty Ethiopian cuisine and we ended the Addis tour by spending the day in Bishofto, there we toured one of the popular resorts, kayaked on one of the most peaceful and beautiful lakes and had lunch as we watched an array of local birds including a large Marabou stork that was so close we could have reached out and touched it.

All-in-all this was a superb tour that we have yet to stop talking about. Yhun was so knowledgeable as he shared Ethiopia’s history and his love for the country was simply beautiful. We can’t wait to go back and take along additional family members. I can honestly say we not only had an AWESOME tour guide, but we made a life-long friend as well. This trip was more than I could have ever imagined thanks to Yhun and another trusted tour guide who we were turned over to for the Omo Valley tribe experience.

Thank you Yhun for the tour of a life-time!!!….We will be back!!! Ethiopia was beautiful in every way and you literally made us feel at home!!!! I recommend this trip to ANYONE who want some lasting memories!!! Bravo Zulu to you….hands down the best tour guide in Ethiopia!!

30 th anniversary in memorable Ethiopia thanks to Liyu Ethiopia Tours
5/5

We spent 18 days in Ethiopia and the tour Yhun organised for us was very memorable thanks to Mohamed and Menber, our 2 guides that made the trip so special.....
First Menber was our tour guide in Lalibela and he was just 10/10…...after seeing all the amazing churches and learning about all the history ...he took us to the wedding of his friend and the next day to his house for lunch....unbelievable experience we will never forget...
In Omo valley and Danakil depression we felt lucky again to have another great guide Mohamed.....he was very fun and very knowledgeable......he even modified the trip in Omo Valley to be able to attend a local event .jumping bulls....where we were among all locals, and 2 instagrammers from Costa Rica ....what we experienced that day was epic...
Danakil was again 3 days full of excitement as we joined other guests who made our trip very unique.....
Thanks Yhun Mohamed and Menber....
We will always remember you

Knowledgeable about the history and very articulate about how he explains and very well mannered
5/5

Me and my husband want to recommend Liyu Ethiopian Tours because of the high level of service and professionalism that was provided for us during our visit to Ethiopia .Every one of the staffs gave us warm welcome and generosity made our stay truly enjoyable. We especially loved the Omo tribes part , the meals, the conversations we shared.
Our guide Amanuel is knowledge of the area and recommendations for anything we asked and our driver Nati made our trip even more exciting. We felt safe and cared for .We are grateful for the memories created and look forward to discover more parts of the country with them again in the future.
