Excellent and generous guide. Will come back!
My wife and I had the pleasure of touring Ethiopia with Robel Hailu, the owner of "Omo Valley
Experience Tours," and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Robel exceeded all
expectations and lived up to every promise made during our trip.
One of the things that stood out most about Robel was his unwavering attention to our needs. He was
incredibly attentive and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. Robel's
generosity was truly remarkable. He provided us with sim cards, and on more than one occasion, he took
us to unplanned destinations simply because we expressed interest in seeing particular attractions, like
the mesmerizing flamingos. This kind of personalized service is a rare find and greatly enhanced our trip.
Robel's ability to connect us with the local culture was outstanding. He arranged for us to attend a bull
ceremony, a unique cultural experience that I highly recommend to all tourists visiting the area. It's
evident that Robel has strong connections within the community, which allows him to offer these
immersive experiences to travelers.
Accommodations throughout our journey were arranged by Robel, and he made sure we stayed at the
best available hotels in each location. It's important to note that while the Omo Valley may not offer
hotels that meet high European standards, Robel ensured that we had comfortable and suitable
lodgings. Travelers should adjust their expectations accordingly before arriving in Ethiopia.
The vehicle provided for our tour was in excellent condition, ensuring a safe and comfortable journey
throughout our trip. Robel's kindness and friendliness were ever-present, making us feel welcome and at
ease.
Robel also organized knowledgeable and friendly guides who accompanied us to visit various tribes,
markets, and natural parks. These guides added depth and insight to our exploration of the region.
The trip covered all expenses, including the cost of the food we ordered, which was very reasonably
priced and consistently of high quality. This comprehensive package made our journey stress-free and
allowed us to fully enjoy the local cuisine.
In summary, Robel Hailu and "Omo Valley Experience Tours" provided an outstanding tour of Ethiopia.
Robel's dedication to his guests, coupled with his local expertise, made our trip truly exceptional. I highly
recommend Robel and his company to anyone looking to explore this remarkable region. Thank you,
Robel, for an unforgettable adventure!

A journey into the soul: Life changing tour through the tribes of Ethiopia.
Our journey took us to the heart of the Omo Valley which is home to some of the most culturally rich and diverse tribes in the world, including the Hamar , the Mursi ,the Nyanghatom, the Ari and the Dorze tribe.Our tour guide, Robel was the key to this unforgettable experience.He was knowledgeable, passionate and deeply respectful of each community's customs.Through his guidance we felt like guests -not just like tourists -invited to have a deeper insight on tribal daily life, culture and customs. He was also so attentive and accommodative ,always ready to satisfy all our needs and provide solutions to whatever came up.Thus, I highly recommend Omo Valley Experience Tours to anyone who wishes to go on a trip that goes beyond sightseeing , awakens your soul and changes your view of the world.
It is no wonder why Omo Valley Experience Tours has gained the Trip Advisor Travellers' Choice Award again for 2025!
