Highlight of traveling Ethiopia
It was the highlight of my time in Ethiopia.
I strongly suggest booking this course as the beginning of your journey in Ethiopia.
I was quite surprised that it felt like a private course—they didn’t cancel even though I was the only one who booked.
From the very beginning, everything was great. On the way to the local market, Oli and Abraham drove me past famous attractions and provided explanations. This overall introduction alone will be incredibly helpful for the rest of your journey.
At the local market, I had plenty of time to explore. (If you’re looking for something other than spices, you can ask them to help you find it.)
After that, we went to their home (not a model house). The place was truly nice and peaceful.
This cooking class wasn’t just about learning skills. It was a beautiful opportunity to better understand the lives of local people, experience how they share food with their families, and learn about their coffee-making and drinking traditions.
Compared to other cooking classes I’ve taken in different countries, this one was among the best in terms of quality and approach. When you talk with the main host, Yhun, you’ll realize how thoughtfully they have designed this tour.
I advised them to include more photos and descriptions because I genuinely want more people to know about this amazing experience.
I initially thought three hours would be too short, but the tour lasted around five hours (maybe because I took my time?). They never complained.
If you have any specific requests, I recommend messaging them in advance. I didn’t, but they were incredibly flexible and will make your journey even more special.
One regret I have is that I didn’t think to take a group photo with their family before leaving.

Informative and welcoming!
We did the City Tour of Addis Ababa with Liyu, and our guide was Amanueal. Amanueal and our driver were perfectly on time and helped us to withdraw some cash for our souvenirs (which was not included in the tour). Our tour was very comprehensive and informative. We learned a lot about Ethiopia and enjoyed every minute of it. We particularly enjoyed the visit of the Ethnographic Museum, the St George Church and our coffee time at the Train Station. If you want to have an overview of Addis, do not hesitate do book it. We highly recommend it!

Lush Ethiopia
I had an amazing day trip to Lake Wenchi with Oli, Abraham, and our driver (apologies for missing his name). The pick-up was perfectly on time, and the entire itinerary was well-organised, allowing us to enjoy every moment without feeling rushed. The journey to the lake was smooth, and the scenery along the way was stunning. At Lake Wenchi, our local guide was very knowledgeable and shared fascinating insights about the area. The weather was absolutely perfect, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a fantastic trip with a friendly and professional team – highly recommended!
