Full day in Addis Ababa, a wonderful tour!  - this was a wonderful comprehensive tour of Addis Ababa. Our guide Leul was friendly and very knowledgeable. we’re very glad we did this tour on our 17 hour layover in Addis. We got to see wonderful, important historical sites, including Lucy. This alone would have been worth the trip to Ethiopia. Lunch in the oldest restaurant in Addis was authentic and delicious. Leul ordered a variety of dishes so we could sample Ethiopian cuisine. Prior to lunch we stopped at a scenic overlook park and enjoyed delicious and very strong Ethiopian coffee. Highly recommend this experience!

Get to see Addis Ababa as a local! - Had a fantastic day in Addis Ababa seeing all of the sites that the city had to offer. It was a effectively a private tour, which made it all the better. Capital was extremely knowledgeable about Ethiopia and gave many insights above and beyond what was in the museums. Definitely worth doing.

Highly recommended. Excellent tour company and staff! - Fantastic and informative tour! My guide, named Capital, is very knowledgeable in geography and African history, speaks fluent German and English, and gives me such a wonderful time touring Addis Ababa. Just seeing Lucy’s fossil in person in the national museum is worth the tour price, and seeing the capital at the highest point of the city is even more memorable.

excellent tour of Addis: Lucy, delicious lunch and great Ethiopian coffee, and so much more! - Excellent very informative tour of Addis. our guide Lowel was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. so many wonderful stops were included. We visited the national Museum and saw famous Lucy fossilized skeleton remains, explored the rest of the museum in depth, went to a beautiful panoramic overlook, enjoyed delicious Ethiopian coffee in a traditional setting, visited the university and King Palace, enjoyed a delicious traditional Ethiopian lunch in the oldest restaurant in Addis Ababa. Visited St. George Cathedral, another stop for coffee and then off to the market. What is amazing day to get an introduction to Ethiopia on our full day layover in Addis. Lowel was a fantastic guide!

The perfect mixture of sights and experiences - An excellent tour, packed with a variety of different experiences - great views, historic monuments, museums, coffee ceremony, food, markets and a station! I felt I got to see all of the different sides of Addis in one day. Our guide, Capital Sisay, was very friendly and incredibly knowledgeable and as a solo traveller, I really enjoyed the company of my fellow tourists. What a great day, thankyou so much!
