Flying Lessons in Addis Ababa

10 Days Addis Danakil lalibela and omo valley

Thank you to the whole team for the great memories!

We recently spent 10 days traveling around Ethiopia with Danakil Depression Tours, and it was honestly one of the most interesting trips we have ever done. We wanted to see very different parts of Ethiopia, so we chose an itinerary that included Lalibela, the Danakil Depression, Abune Yemata and the Omo Valley. It was a busy trip, but everything was well organized and we never felt lost or unsure about what was happening next. We started in Lalibela, and the rock-hewn churches were incredible to see in person. Photos really don't show how impressive they are. Our guide took us around the different churches and explained the history and religious significance without making the tour feel like a history lecture. We also had time to walk around and enjoy the town. Then came the Danakil Depression, which was probably the most unusual part of the trip. The heat was intense and some of the roads were definitely rough, but that's part of the adventure. Seeing the salt landscape, Lake Assale and the strange colors and formations around Dallol was something completely different from anything we had seen before. Camping in such a remote place was also an experience we will remember. We then traveled to the Gheralta Mountains to visit Abune Yemata. We knew beforehand that the climb would be difficult, but it was still more challenging than we expected! There are some steep and exposed sections, so you need to be comfortable with heights. Our local guide was very patient and helped us along the way. When we finally reached the church and saw where it was built into the cliff, it was absolutely worth the effort. The last part of the trip was the Omo Valley, where we visited Hamer, Karo and Mursi communities. This was very different again. We enjoyed seeing how people live, their traditional clothing, houses, farming and daily activities. Having local guides with us helped us understand what we were seeing instead of simply arriving, taking photos and leaving. One thing we really appreciated was how the team handled all the logistics. This was not an easy itinerary because we were traveling through very different and remote parts of Ethiopia, but the flights, vehicles, hotels, meals and local guides were all arranged for us. There were definitely some long drives, early mornings, heat and uncomfortable roads during the trip, but we expected that when we chose this itinerary. For us, those things were part of the experience rather than a problem. The guides and drivers were friendly and we felt well looked after throughout the 10 days. Whenever something needed to be changed or adjusted, the team helped us sort it out. A big thank you to everyone at Danakil Depression Tours for making the trip such a memorable experience. Ethiopia has so much variety, and in just 10 days we saw places that felt completely different from one another. If you are looking for a trip that combines history, adventure, incredible landscapes and different cultures, we would definitely recommend this itinerary. Thank you to the whole team for the great memories! 🇪🇹❤️

3-Day Arba Minch and the Rift Valley Lakes

An unforgettable experience!

Travelling to Arba Minch and Omo Valley is definitely an unforgetable experience. During our visit we saw many wild animals including eagles, hippos, cocrodiles, and more as well as the most famous communities such as Hamar, murky, Karo and many more. The tour company Eyayaw tours is fantastic. They prepared a great itinerary and were always ready for unexpected changes. The guide Gebru and our driver Tafe are simply fantastic. We felt very safe at all times. The roads are pretty bad so having the adequate car and driver is very important. Bravo to Eyayaw tours
