Unforgettable Experience - I had an unforgettable time with Exciting Ethiopia. George and Fitsum were extremely accommodating, meeting any needs or interests I had. The tours were flexible and customized to my interests.... read more I went alone for 16 days in the Omo Valley and Harare, and I would do it all over again if I could. The guide and driver were excellent, and I feel I made lifelong relationships with them. Exciting Ethiopia brought me to places I could never imagine! Truly an authetic and unforgettable time. Thank you Exciting Ethiopia! I look forward to my next tour in Ethiopia with you.

  We are two girl friends who got in contact with George based on excellent online reviews from previous clients. From the very beginning George was extremely professional and accommodating, answering... read more our emails in a matter of hours and creating the perfect itinerary for us!

In Ethiopia, Shigo was our guide and he was such a blessing! His deep knowledge of cultures, languages and tribes in the Omo Valley allowed us to have the most wonderful experience! Shigo is very informative, accommodating, respectful and sweet and he is always welcome in all the tribes, which makes his guests also welcome into the local communities. This subsequently makes your experience as authentic as possible - you get to interact with the tribe members, share stories (being himself from the Banna tribe, Shigo speaks many of the tribal languages), sing with them, visit their huts, take pictures with them, ask them questions, etc.

With regard to logistics, everything was very well organized. We stayed in very good hotels and the restaurants for our lunch were chosen taking into consideration our “Western stomachs”. George was available on the phone at all times and he quickly and efficiently sorted out a couple of mishaps we encountered during our trip.

If you are looking for an authentic, safe and hassle-free experience in Ethiopia, we strongly recommend Exciting Ethiopian Tours!!

  Tour of Lower Omo valley plus Harar - Four friends and I took a 11 day tour which George organized for us. We had numerous calls with George beforehand so we could plan an itinerary that would... read more satisfy our numerous desires. It was very easy to reach George and he understood exactly what we wanted. Unfortunately he could not join us for the tour itself as he had been summoned by the government to attend a meeting in Botswana - however his substitute, Shigo, was excellent, from one of the tribes in the valley and he made it very easy to go to many villages and meet villagers in each one instead of merely taking photos and racing on to the next village. As a result we had a much richer experience. Shigo was informative and entertaining and the drivers were excellent as well. I would recommend a visit to the Lower Omo valley and strongly recommend that you use Exciting Ethiopia Tours.
