Absolutely 10/10
I just came back for 7 day tour in Northern Ethiopia from Ethio top land tours company, and honestly, it was one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had. The company took care of everything from transportation and hotels to knowledgeable local guides and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way.
We visited Lalibela, Gondar, Bahir Dar, and the Simien Mountains, and every place was more stunning than the last. What really stood out was how friendly, professional, and genuinely caring the team was. They didn’t treat us like just customers they treated us like guests.
Highly recommend this tour if you want to experience the beauty, culture, and history of Ethiopia without any stress. I’ll definitely be back for another adventure

It couldn't be better! Mr. Lamesgn is best guide I've ever met
I took a layover for 9hours in Ethiopia and was looking for an experience to kill the time. One of my friends recommended me the Ethio tour and I booked via WhatsApp. They are very prompt and offer high-quality service. The day tour with this operator is way more interesting than I expected. I also recommend you too!

A deeply enriching journey with warm hospitality and unforgettable cultural experiences!
Omo Valley tour was incredible, made even more special by the amazing hospitality of our guide and the entire team. From the very start, we felt truly welcomed. The welcoming dinner at Youd Abyssinia was a fantastic introduction to Ethiopian cuisine and culture. It was our second time trying Ethiopian injera, and it was just as delicious and authentic as we remembered.
Throughout the trip, we were immersed in the rich traditions of the Omo Valley tribes, getting a genuine glimpse of Ethiopian culture beyond the usual tourist experience. The guide have good experince and respect for the local communities made every encounter meaningful and respectful.
To close our adventure, the farewell dinner at Toto Traditional Restaurant was a perfect celebration. We enjoyed drinking honey wine (tej), a special local treat, while reflecting on all we had experienced. It was a heartfelt moment that really brought the trip full circle.
Overall, this tour wasn’t just about sightseeing it was about truly connecting with the culture, the people, and the spirit of Ethiopia. The warm welcome, the meaningful experiences, and the loving farewell made this journey unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Perfect itinerary, Amazing service and Good arranagement
This 15-day tour through Ethiopia was truly one of the most powerful and enriching experiences of my life. From the moment we landed in Addis Ababa, everything was handled with such professionalism and care. Our guide was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also warm, patient, and passionate about Ethiopia’s history, landscapes, and diverse cultures. He wasn’t just a guide — he was a storyteller, a cultural ambassador, and someone who made us feel safe and welcome every step of the way.
What stood out the most, however, was the personal involvement of the company’s owner, Lamesgn. I’ve taken many tours around the world, but I’ve never had the owner of a company so actively involved. He personally met us in Addis, offered us a warm Ethiopian coffee ceremony, and checked in multiple times throughout the tour to make sure everything was going smoothly. At one point, a fellow traveler had a minor health concern, and Lamesgn personally coordinated medical support and followed up every day until the guest was feeling better. That kind of personal care is rare and incredibly appreciated.
The journey itself was breathtaking — we explored ancient rock-hewn churches in Lalibela, trekked through the alien-like landscapes of the Danakil Depression, and visited unique tribal communities in the Omo Valley with great sensitivity and respect. Each destination offered something different, and the itinerary was balanced beautifully between cultural immersion, adventure, and relaxation.
Ethiopia is a country of contrasts and deep history — it challenges you, teaches you, and welcomes you. Thanks to this tour and the people behind it, I felt I experienced the very soul of the country. I left with unforgettable memories, hundreds of photos, and a newfound respect for this incredible land. I would recommend this company without hesitation, especially for travelers who want a more meaningful and well-organized experience.

Ethio Top Land Tour is definitely the superd choice for a indepth, comfortable tour of Ethiopia!
We (couple) just did a 8N8D tour of northern Alfar region and southern Omo Valley region, organised by Ethio Top Land Tour. We highly recommended this tour operator as the team, lead by the boss Lamesgn Melese, is very responsive, knowlegeable, and super attentive to our needs. This 30yrs old young owner, Lamesgn is super hands on before, during and even after the trip; responded to every enquiry prior to trip timely and professionally! At times, I have to ask if he sleeps at all . E.g. He responded to our requests for change of activities (the heat up north was almost unbearble at times) in surprising speed and accomodated us in the most suiting hotels, even in the remote regions! He is constantly in touch with his guide, Tamrat Atanfie who travelled with us thru out the whole 8 days! Tamrat (29 yrs old) is knowlegeable, very friendly and especially seasoned when dealing with local guides across several tribes. The company's contracted drivers for the north and south are equally skill and careful drivers. Thank you Lamesgn team for the wonderful memory!

Authentic local tour felt like a local
Absolutely loved my day seeing the highlights of Adis. Going to local coffee shops wandering through the market seeing the views of the city and of course Lucy. Most importantly my guide Lamesgn and my driver Eshetu were spectacular I felt I spent the day with friends having a very local non tourist experience. I would recommend this tour to everyone - I may have overdosed on coffee.

Recommended Ethiopian Tours
I had a sudden layover in Addis Ababa, so I looked up this tour in a hurry, and it was a great experience! I hadn't researched anything, so I went with the recommended route. I heard there are plenty of other places to see, and there are plenty of Ethiopian tours available. It was nice to have a safe and secure guide, and the explanations were friendly and thorough, which was very satisfying.

Everything just planned so well!!! Starting from a nice Arabica coffee in the morning, the shop with good vibe. And the Mercado to feel the local biggest street market. Don’t worry about security, they will protect you well. Also good explanation on the palace, seeing a military who fight for Italian soldiers in dozens years ago. Happy to end in the national museum - I know well we are all from Africa. Proud to share the trip with everyone.
