Above and beyond service, amazing tours
From the beginning, communication with Armaye was clear and efficient. The entire experience is well thought through and customized and well curated. The team he works with were all great with many logistical aspects to consider. Highly recommend this group. Our trip to the Simeon Mountains as well as Gondar and Addis was really a rich experience in every way you can possibly think of. Don’t hesitate to book with this group as they will ensure you have a great trip to remember.
I had the best guides you could hope for - helpful, great knowledge and a love of wildlife.
Armaye and Kumfir did everything to make my tour a wonderful and memorable experience and they succeeded. There was a lot of travelling involved and the standard of driving and care was exceptional. They realised that the most important thing for me was seeing the wildlife and they made sure we saw all that we could - they loved the animals too so I felt part of a team looking for all that we could find. The communication and information provided before the tour was really useful and there were no hidden extras. I recommend Armaye and his colleagues to anyone who wants to come to Ethiopia - the wildlife is rapidly disappearing so come for a trip to Ethiopia with Armaye while it is still there.
Five stars service
We booked the 17 Days Wildlife Safari Tour with Armaye being our main interest the photography of wild life. The offered tour was a perfect match to our needs. From the very beginning, Armaye provided a lot of information, the communication was fluid all the time, he showed also flexibility to adjust details of the itinerary, giving us a high level a confidence with his knowledge and professionalism. Upon arrival at Addis Ababa Airport, everything run smoothly and attached to the planned schedule. Armaye is a great guide and companion for this kind of challenging safaris, where long distances must to be covered different transports and the visits to remote areas of the National Parks are a must to spot the targeted animals. Our high expectations were surpassed!! The two drivers were great, at Simien Montains National Park, he was an expert animal spotter too. All the local guides, in all places where needed, were very good. At the National Parks, the expert eye of Armaye was invaluable, also his sense of photographer, we enjoyed every minute spent with Armaye.
Regarding the tour organization, it was perfect, and Armaye was all the time checking our particular needs and taking care constantly about them, even talking to the restaurant chefs to adjust the menus for us!.
We think we covered a big part of the most relevant National Parks to spot endemic animals, like Simien and Bale Mountains as the most impressive of them. The long list of mammals to spot were checked and most of the relevant birds too!! In Harar we experienced the early night session with the Hyena men, unbelievable!
The hotels booked had some up and downs but understanding that we were visiting some remote areas with a limited tourism developing, we were overall satisfied, all them were clean and with comfortable beds. Special remarks to Simien Lodge, Haile Resort Awassa and, on top of all them, Doho Lodge, an amazing place.
As a conclusion, the safari tour focus was great, the organization perfect and the value for money more than reasonable. Armaye is an excellent guide and organizer, but even more important he is a great guy!
My recommendation, if somebody wants to visit Ethiopia, is booking the trip with Armaye Tours, with no doubt!
This is an amazing, well set, locally aware team, I was impressed from 1st contact to end of tour
Armaye tours were courteous, prompt, flexible and knowledgeable in their correspondence from the first contact.
It was simple to put together the tour with their help
They remained in touch until I arrived and was picked up from the airport.
The tour team consisted of Awol, guide - who was respectful, caring, hugely knowledgeable about the area, the fauna and flora and Ethiopia. And his eagle eyes were superb pointing out so much as we walked along. A true diamond
Idris our chef produced hot home cooked food throughout the tour and I remain amazed at what can be produced on a single burner!!
Our porters were polite, cheerful, organised and so efficient.
I was a single white older female and I never felt uncomfortable once
Armaye is a well run, locally respectful tour company and I would recommend them without hesitation. You won't be disappointed
wonderful tour operator
I attended in the 2 night 3 days tour of Bale mountain. I could see many endemic wildlives and great views. That was unforgetable experience.
