The best choice to visit Ethiopia
We (me and my girlfriend) can only say that we had the best experience. Our expectations were surpassed. Our guide tours were taking care of us every minute, and so gentle all the time, they took care of every detail to make sure our experience was the best, and made us feel as a family. If you are coming to Ethiopia this is the best choice, you wont regret it.

Very professional and responsible team.
I want to say a big thank you to Ethio Top Land Tours for our tour to the Danakil Depression.
We had an accident during the tour, and from my experience traveling to 100 countries, operators can react very differently in such situations. Ethio Top Land Tours behaved professionally and did everything they could to help and solve the problem.
I especially want to mention Getachew, who was always in touch and also helped us book the tour at the last minute (literally the evening before the tour), because due to the situation in the Middle East we weren’t sure if we would even make it to Ethiopia.
Also, the guide Robel — unfortunately he left after the first day, but he made a great impression on day one. His English is excellent, and if you get him as your guide, you’ll be very lucky 🙂
And of course the driver Mikki — he drove for about 9 hours at night to help us handle the situation and took us to the hospital. From my experience traveling in a convoy, he seemed like the most competent driver, and he was also the only one who spoke English.
Friendly, and helpful
Able to see the city in a few hours, with a variety of cites and sounds
Travel with Heart, Integrity, and Excellence
We chose Ethiopia for its astonishing diversity — ancient history, living anthropology, and spectacular natural beauty. Knowing how vast and complex the country is, we decided — for the first time ever — to entrust our trip to a local tour agency. After comparing several proposals, Ethio Top Land Tours clearly stood out. After 21 incredible days of travel, including seven domestic flights, we can say without hesitation: it was one of the best travel decisions we have ever made.
Outstanding Flexibility & Seamless Organization
Travel reality often differs from what you see in guidebooks — and that’s part of the adventure. What truly impressed us was the agency’s remarkable flexibility. We were able to adjust our itinerary along the way — sometimes from one day to the next — based on our interests or simply how we felt. Each time, accommodations were smoothly rebooked and flights adjusted without stress, complications, or extra charges. Even when domestic flight schedules changed, everything was handled immediately and professionally. We felt completely supported at all times.
An Exceptional Guide & The Best Driver We Could Imagine
Our guide, Desala, was extraordinary. His encyclopedic knowledge of Ethiopia’s history, cultures, religions, and regional differences was simply breathtaking. Yet beyond his expertise, what touched us most was his warmth and humanity. He interacted with curious locals with such natural ease — a greeting here, a short chat there, sometimes even a hug — creating moments that felt authentic and deeply human.
And then there was Abel — our phenomenal driver. Traveling Ethiopia means navigating unpredictable roads and challenging conditions. Abel was the definition of professionalism: calm, focused, always 100% attentive. We felt safe every single second. And whenever we spontaneously called out, “Stop — I want this photo!” he responded with patience and a smile. His dedication went above and beyond — even spending an entire night waiting in line for fuel to ensure our journey continued without disruption.
Absolute Trust & Reliability
We paid the full amount upon arrival in Addis Ababa — an act of complete trust that was fully honored. Every agreement was respected. All adjustments remained within the original budget. Even nationwide fuel shortages had zero impact on our itinerary. That level of reliability is priceless.
Genuine, Heartfelt Hospitality
From the warm airport welcome and thoughtful surprises to the beautiful welcome dinner and touching farewell evening, we felt truly cared for — not as clients, but as guests and friends.
This is more than a tour agency. It is a team with heart, integrity, and exceptional professionalism. They don’t just organize trips — they create life-changing experiences.
We left Ethiopia with memories deeply engraved in our hearts — and we are already dreaming of returning.

Fantastic
My tour of Addis Ababa was absolutely fantastic! My guide, Saleamlak was knowledgeable, professional, and full of energy—bringing the city’s deep history, culture, and beauty to life en-route and at every stop. From the breathtaking views at Mount Entoto to the meeting Lucy and visit at the National Museum and the traditional coffee experience.
Even though it was a Sunday we could still experience the amazing Merkato Market, every moment was rich with learning and joy. I left with a deeper appreciation for Ethiopia’s vibrant heritage and warm hospitality. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Addis Ababa!
Once again thank you to Saleamlak and his dedicated driver Eshetu!

Best Value Tour in Ethiopia
We were a small group on a 14 days tour with Ethio Top Land Tours, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish.
Lamesgn, the young owner, is very professional, kind, and humble. He welcomed us at Bole Airport and made us feel special even putting our country’s flag on the car.
We enjoyed unique cultural experiences like a traditional coffee ceremony, local food, and visiting the Omo Valley tribes. The Danakil adventure and Lalibela were unforgettable highlights.
Everything was well organized and truly worth the money. Highly recommended!

An Unforgettable Journey to Ethiopia That Exceeded All Expectations! I would like to express
I would like to express my immense gratitude to the team at Ethio Top Land Tours for a perfectly organized trip! From the very first day until the moment of departure back home, every detail was thoughtfully arranged.
Organization and Communication
During the planning stage, I had many questions, and I truly appreciated the prompt, clear, and friendly communication. All agreements were honored, and the tour cost was very reasonable — an excellent value for such a rich and diverse itinerary.
Safety and Professionalism
Special thanks to our guides and drivers. I felt completely safe throughout the entire journey — whether in remote villages of the Omo Valley or at the edge of an active volcano in the Danakil Depression. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for the travelers were evident every single day.
Special Thanks
I want to say a huge thank you to our guide Desale and our driver Zola. They didn't just accompany us — they created the atmosphere of a friendly adventure. All transfers, flights, accommodation, and meals were organized flawlessly. We could simply enjoy the trip without worrying about a thing.
Impressions of Ethiopia
Ethiopia is love at first sight. The country turned out to be so multifaceted and astonishing that it exceeded all my expectations. There is no doubt — I will definitely return to discover more of this beautiful land. And of course, I will only contact Ethio Top Land Tours.
Thank you for this unforgettable adventure!

Professional, interesting, high quality
This was our first trip to Ethiopia. The nine-day tour included many different and interesting places in different parts of the country. The well-designed itinerary, tailored to our needs, delighted us with its variety, comfort, and varied experiences. Thanks to our guide, Desale, and our driver, Zola, we were always comfortable, our wishes were taken into account, and we received a wealth of information about each place and all the questions we asked. It was interesting, beautiful, fun, and unforgettable! We want to return and continue exploring Ethiopia. Huge thanks for all the organization!
