Two cosmic sisters in Ethiopia. An extraordinary and very safe experience for two women traveling al
Armaye's organization was impeccable. Always attentive and happy to be there for us. And the guides? Absolutely top-notch. All very dedicated and proud of their country, they showed us Africa in a single country.
Please don't hesitate. Trust Armaye and her team for an exceptional and unforgettable trip.
A thousand thanks to Armaye and the entire team :-)
Excellent tour. Armaye delivered everything they promised and more.
This was a customized tour billed as focusing on wildlife photography, but it included so much more. In 3 weeks we did see a lot of wildlife, especially birds, but also a number of cities. The drivers, especially Ermi, were very knowledgeable and friendly. I especially liked the flexibility to adjust our schedule on the fly.
The price was very reasonable, particularly since we stayed in some of the best hotels in the country. I highly recommend Armaye Tours.
Note: The only thing I found annoying has nothing to do with Armaye. Apparently the Ethiopian government requires all tours to use local guides everywhere. In national parks this is often an armed scout. In the cities the local guide can be useful, but the scouts often just tag along and add little or no value. But of course they all expect tips at the end. This appears to be just to provide work for more people, since Ethiopia has a very high unemployment rate.
A Great Introduction To The City
We did a full day Addis city tour with Armaye Tours and It was an amazing tour. Borook the tour guide was very knowledgeable, We got a lot of information about the culture and history of Ethiopia. I highly recommend this excursion!
Armaye is wholly professional with flexibility to create unique itineraries and travel experiences.
I am a naturalist with an appetite to photograph endemic and vulnerable species. Armaye worked with me, awesome communication skills btw, to provide me with the appropriate destinations for the time I had available. Even with the challenges of the changing political climate during the trip, Armaye had the flexibility to make changes to lodgings, flights, destinations, etc. that still offered me the photo opportunities for which I had hoped and remain in budget. My travel plans placed me in Ethiopia during off-season for tourism, but I was rewarded with a unique insight into the natural world of that region during the rainy season. I am delighted by the many babies, juveniles, and family units that nature revealed to me, glimpsing some of the more elusive animals. The trade-off was that the trip did not coincide with migrations of birds, but the abundant numbers and varieties of resident species filled camera memory cards with animals I had never encountered. This was my first trip to the Horn of Africa. I was immersed in rural Ethiopia, but my professional guide and driver took good care to keep me safe. Of note, I do not have a palate for spicy food (I feel that cayenne pepper and curry is too spicy) so that was a challenge for me personally, but I planned for that inevitability and brought nuts, raisins, and crackers to sustain me.

Very well organised in , hotels and drivers.
Perfect organization, the hotels were very good and clean, and the drivers very professional. Armaye organized the tour only for 2 people and we visited very interesting places in the North and in the south of the country. Ethiopia has been a very nice discovery.
