MEMORIES LAST A LIFE TIME
5/5

My name is Carol and i am from Uganda. Traveling is one of my best hobbies especially when i get in connection with the best tour operator.
I have travelled to 4 countries and Ethiopia was my 5th country. Honestly speaking ,traveling with Essence Ethiopia Tours was the best decision i made and i promised to return very soon.
When you travel with them you are guaranteed to get the best memories of all times. They are always on time and move on schedule,they have very affordable prices and can work within your budget. They booked me the best accommodation that had the best service and the trips were what i can say one of the best.
Ideally no one can recommend any agency but with Essence Ethiopia Tours ,they come highly recommended and you can expect to get the best of the best with them. You will not regret it.
Bravo to you Tsehaynew.

The best time in my life
5/5

It is almost a must to come to Africa and do a safari with Martin. Honestly, I don't think it could have been any better.

He used all of his expertise to find the animals, was incredibly patient, and spared no effort to make sure we could see them. We managed to spot all of the Big Five, and throughout the tour he explained everything with great knowledge, passion, and an excellent sense of humor.

I am very, very grateful to have had this experience with him. Thank you for making this safari such a special and unforgettable adventure.

Good experience and very good guides
5/5

We took a 7-day tour through Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire, finishing with a visit to the beautiful Materuni Waterfalls. The experience fully met our expectations. The highlight of the trip was the excellent attitude, professionalism, and friendliness of our guides, Akram and Justine, who made the journey even more enjoyable. We were able to see everything we had hoped for and thoroughly enjoyed every part of the tour

Tsehaynew the best tour operator in Ethiopia.
5/5

Traveling with essence Ethiopia tours was an experience that gave me the time of my life. First the time and attention that he provides as we planned the trip was very good with the best advice on the places to visit.
The prices were very affordable and fit in the budget .
Tsehaynew is a very exquisite person because he fulfills what he promises. The accommodation was to die for and they had the best meals and wifi was also provided.
During the trip I had a very memorable time because alot of care was offered on the trip and the transportation was good and always on time.
I would highly recommend essence Ethiopia tours for all your Ethiopian trips and I guarantee that you will be super amazed.

Big up to you guys and thank you for giving me the best time in Ethiopia. I will surely plan to visit again.

Great experience
5/5

Well worth the time and money spent taking this tour.
Everything was smooth from pick up to drop off. Seems like a long day but to see the animals in their natural habitat is first class.
I would definitely do this again.

Well-organized trip, excellent guide
5/5

The safari with "full package adventure" was a wonderful experience. Our guide Max was punctual and very professional, we managed to see many animals close up with his guidance. He was also good at solving emerging problems. I think the tour was a good value for money, the organization was professional and reliable.

Very reliable and accommodating. Unreal experience.
5/5

Truly an unreal experience. Kiliclimb Safaris have been nothing but accommodating, very reliable and hospitable to me. Every single day of the trip was 10/10. Thank you Kiliclimb. And more importantly, thank you Godson the guide and Laura for such amazing hospitality. Godson the guide was truly the best tour guide I have ever been with and thanks to him and Kiliclimb, it was a surreal experience that I will never forget.

we were booked for a gorilla trek and golden monkey trek. We had to cancel coming to Uganda and Rwanda. We emailed asking for a full refund, sent a couple of follow-ups- no response.
slimy organization

Stress free transfer

We travelled by minibus from Hazyview to Jo’burg with our excellent driver Tiyani. He was a very safe driver, stopped a couple of times and dropped us off at our hotel in the timeframe advised
