Unforgettable Experience
This was my first time in Ethiopia and first time in East Africa, and what an incredible experience it was! I arranged for a 10 day tour but, due to an emergency only stayed for 6. Samuel, the Organiser, was very helpful and attentive throughout the journey, from tailoring the itinerary pre-booking to being in country and making sure things went smoothly via WhatsApp. My Private tour was originally to visit Lalibela, Gondar and Addis Ababa, half historical and the other half food and culture, but due to the war resuming in the Tigray region, I decided to remove visiting Lalibela, which Samuel agreed with and changed the excursion to another location. My time was wonderful; seeing the architecture and landscapes woven with Orthodox Christianity and Ethiopian culture felt like visiting Rome in Africa. So much history cannot be experienced in 10 days; I most definitely have to come back. The hotels I stayed in were nice; the only issue was the shower being cold in Gondar, but the mechanic was on hand to fix it. There is a lot I could say about my time in Ethiopia but then i would have to write a short novel. The main highlight that is worth mentioning was Samuel putting together a wonderful birthday experience for me where I had a a local family of incredible women teach me how to prepare and roast coffee for a ceremony, cook a local dish and bake injera, this will remain a memory I'll never forget. All in all every tour guide I had was informative. The drivers were punctual and Samuel made sure I was updated with any change In my itinerary, especially with the sudden change. My main bit of feedback is regarding my package being full board and having excursions every day it wasn't clear whether I had lunch and dinner included at the hotel everyday or only on the days im not out on a tour, it was confirmed eventually but could be clearer early on. When I return to Ethiopia again, I will be using Origin Abyssinia; they treated me like family. No A.I was used for this review all grammar and spelling errors are passionately my own xD
