Great experience - We had an amazing time during this tour. Our guide, Mulugeta, was the absolute best. His knowledge of the city history and cuisine was unparalleled. The whole experience was full of fun and energy, this is an absolute must-do if you find yourself in Addis Ababa. Mulugeta first took us to Tadesse Grand for a vegan stop, then to Genesis Fish House, then we had a lovely walk to Yilma Butchery for beef and finally enjoyed some of the best coffee I’ve ever had in my life at Tiru coffee stop. I have nothing bad to say about this tour. If you decide not to put this on your tour list you will be missing out. Really great time!

Fantastic food tour - I had a wonderful food tour, trying what I think of as traditional Ethiopian food as well as visiting specialty restaurants for fish and beef. The coffee ceremony at the final stop was the perfect end to the day. I learned so much about the country, culture, customs and politics from my guide Mulugeta in addition to the fantastic cuisine.

Hiring Go Further was the best decision we made for our trip! - Hiring Go Further was the best decision we made for our trip to Ethiopia! From the moment we landed they were ready and prepared to show us a great time! We had returned as two families with our children who were from Ethiopia and had a lot of moving parts with this trip. They were ready at the airport with a great van, water, sim cards, and even were ready to change our US dollars! They thought of everything. Not to mention that the personality of the tour guides was professional, kind, and hard-working, and you could tell that their number one priority was to make sure we had a great time. They catered to our days to meet our needs and desires. We visited many places around Addis and did their fun walking food tour. They planned everything for us and took a lot of stress out of the planning. Addis is not a place I would dare drive myself and having someone who knows the area and the history and was able to share with was perfect. If you are staying for a week like us or just have a layover you will not go wrong hiring them! I sure am glad we did!

TOP - We visited the southern villages in Ethiopia (as well as the food tour). The tour was well organized, our tour guide Dessu was simply the best (kind, patient, knowledgeable, passionate, doing the best for us to have a great memory) and our driver, Joseph was excellent and knew his job very well. We couldn’t ask for better!

Great Addis overview and food - I went on the combined Addis overview tour and evening food tour. It makes for a long but very rewarding day. The food tour in particular should not be missed and featured a vegetarian Ethiopian meal, a fish restaurant, a beef restaurant and coffee service. The morning overview tour featured the National Museum, market, park overlooking the city and traditional lunch. My guide Mulugeta was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend the day with

Better as it goes on - Food was good on average. First place (injera/lentils/peas) food was cold. Second place (fried fish) was good but basic. Third place (beef tibs) was delicious! Fourth place (coffee) was the best of the 4!
