Brilliant tour! - We had a two-day guided tour in Addis (including a long visit to Entoto park, the key museums and the markets) and were impressed by the knowledge and professional approach of Sisay, and I can only recommend him to those who plan to visit Addis!

A Nostalgia Tour in Addis Ababa - Sisay is endowed with vast knowledge of the history of Abbysinia. His guidance across the historical places in the city was a riminiscence of my days in MA Course unit on the History of the Nile Civilization!! We visited the church that was built by Menelik II after the battle of Adwa against the Italian troops!! Every site that we went to was a place of indepth-learning. Sisay is an amazing tour guide.

Sisay gave us a guided tour of Ntoto. We made Injira and visited the Saint George's Cathedral Church in Addis Ababa. - I enjoyed every bit of Addis Ababa. Thanks to Sisey. He was patient and responded to all our questions. I would love to come back again.

Addis a Day - Sisai is fun, cool and super easy. This combination worked to make exploring Addis a special experience with him for he has an almost encyclopaedic knowledge of the flower that Addis is. From vantage points in Entoto for the views of Addis to the market, museums, Addis University, among others, a trip with Sisai has you enamoured by Ethiopia. The guy even recommended some novels. Try Sisai and thank me later.

A great experience - Sisay is a serious, skilled, knowledgeable, reliable and very experienced tourist guide. He led a group of about 10 people to some of the most iconic places in Addis (St George Cathedar, Entoto, etc), and knew how to answer to all our many questions as to the history and culture of these places. One can easily see that he has a diploma in tourist studies from the University of Addis Ababa, as one has the feeling to be accompanied by a scholar. And on the top of that, he is extremely kind, nice, and generous. I highly reccommend him!

A fantastic day in Addis - We only had a day to spare and Sisay made our stay in Ethiopia. He is knowledgeable, a fantastic companion and fun. We went to Entoto, the St George Cathedral, the market, Addis Ababa University Museum, and then ended at an Ethiopian restaurant. It was a diverse and fun tour. Very worth it.

Incomparable Addis Ababa tour - How to express just how special and valuable was our experience with Sisay touring Addis Ababa for the first time? We had a vanishingly short duration in the city and having never before visited there was so much we wanted to see. Armed with some details of what we were interested in seeing, Sisay was waiting for us at the airport as promised when we arrived. Our tour of the mercato was truly eye opening and special, and capped with a stop at the best fresh juice stand you're likely to encounter anywhere. Special mention is also warranted for our visit to the Bat Haile Mariam church. Sisay arranged a special tour of the church for us, including a journey to the crypt where the tombs of King Menelik II, his wife, daughter (and successor) and the daughter of Emperor Haile Selassie are located. The visit was capped with a traditional dinner featuring Ethiopian musicians and dancers and Sisay got us back to the airport just in time to catch our flight out. I promise if you engage his services Sisay will not disappoint. As someone with deep knowledge, love and reverence for his singularly beautiful country, Sisay will only make you wonder why you hadn't visited sooner. I know I look forward to returning as soon as possible and seeing more of Ethiopia with Sisay as my guide.
