A CLOSER LOOK AT YOUR JOURNEY

The experience.

Start your Ethiopia journey by getting your bearings in Addis Ababa. A guided city day brings together a broad view from the hills, objects that introduce the country’s past and time in a working market. You can tell the partner whether you would like more history, a slower pace or room for a food stop before the route is finalised.

  • Views from Entoto hills
  • Ethnological and National Museum stops
  • St George’s Cathedral
  • A guided walk in Merkato

YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Good to know.

Can I do this Addis Ababa tour during a layover?

Share your flight numbers and available time with the partner first. The full-day outline needs enough time for sightseeing, road travel and your airport return; a shorter plan may be more suitable.

Is USD 120 a per-person price?

The source lists USD 120 and says the price varies by group size, without a clear per-person basis on the page. Ask for the exact total for your party before booking.

Can we include Ethiopian food or coffee?

Mention that in your enquiry so the partner can allow time and quote any additional stop. Meals and a coffee ceremony are not promised within the reference city-tour price.
