MEMORIES LAST A LIFE TIME
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.

Good experience and very good guides
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

Well-organized trip, excellent guide
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.
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.
Excellent service
We travelled from Hazyview to Johannesburg with Tiyani driving. He was an excellent, safe driver. Very hospitable stopping for breaks along the way.

Adventure Purist - the name is programme!
As it has been our first safari we really appreciated the experienced organisation and the well founded knowledge of the team. The advantage of long-term insight of all team members in combination with the enthusiasm the guides shared with us was tremendous.
Besides the inspiring game drives the accommodation and the provided meals have been really outstanding.

Great tour round Addis Ababa
Personalised day tour around Addis with Kenaw. He was great -- took me to some amazing food places, as well as the sights I wanted to see (cathedral, National Museum, memorial, Entoto park). The whole tour was tailored to what I wanted to do. Great information and very friendly. Felt like I was being taken around by a friend, not a tour guide! Would recommend to anyone looking for a guide in Addis and Ethiopia in general.

Savanna Safaris and Tours is the best!!
Emmelyn and the team provided a flawless three country trip for us. Their communication and professionalism down to every details allowed my family to sit back and enjoy all our transfers, lodges, safari game drives, helicopter tours, etc. I have used this company twice and will do so again soon as it makes such a difference to have someone in country when you are trying to manage your trip from the US. As always-thank you to Savanna Safaris and Tours

An individually tailored adventure
From the start Harilala was a great contact, who created an itinerary that matched our wishes and needs.
Communication is quick and easy via email and WhatsApp and in very good English.
Overall we would absolutely recommend this local tour operator and we're grateful for their support even after the tour.
We booked a 2 week tour of wildlife and birding and saw lots of the endemic species, considering the season of course. Distances feel longer than they are due to road conditions, so take that into consideration.
In our experience it really isn't an issue to take things like physical ability, dietary requirements etc into consideration, as they adjust the itinerary to that.
We had Hoby and Des as our guide and driver and very much enjoyed the fun and knowledgeable team.
