I even now plan another trip hopefully in 2014 with goldies oldies friends of mine & again with Mr Eskinder company.

I had the chance to travel 19 days with this company (which was recommanded by an Italian friend of mine who also travelled 2 weeks (party of 3).

Travelling in Ethiopia (out of Addis Abeba) is a great experience especially when the ground handler in charge of your trip is a professionnal such as Mr Eskinder. My wife & I were pampered.

You should keep in mind this is Ethiopia, an East Africa country & still a Nation building up & you should not expect an American or European standart of service but still I was surprised of the level & quality : Transportation was perfect( good driver & car ), transit, planes, hotels, pick up ,nothing negative to mention.

Food is an issue: mainly you have a lot of Italian food (good quality) & the Ethiopian traditionnal food. No bad surprises (no tourista) just stick to basic local dish : Sheero & Wat & ingera vegetarian dish.

Excellent avocado juice & basic african fruits. Try to avoid fresh vegetables,insteed eat cooked vegetables. There are a lot to discover within this old Christian country.

Ethiopian Airline the leading company in Africa have the latest planes while flying into the country or domestic , Roads are new except in few area under construction, it is an easy journey. Guides have degrees & are at disposal for any questions, they know their subjects.

Ethiopians are friendly people & always keen to learn from you. I lived in this country when young & was back there after 30 years & Mr Eskinder team made there best so I could keep the best memories.
