Great coommunications. Adaptable to different situations which may come up during the trip.
We were incredibly pleased with the care and dedication we received from Daniel during our trip to Ethiopia. Despite several unexpected challenges—like our lost luggage with Turkish Airlines—Daniel swiftly used his extensive connections to ensure our bags were delivered to us as soon as possible.
When we missed our flight to the Omo Valley, Daniel completely rearranged our itinerary, making sure we didn’t miss out on the experience. Since flights to the Omo Valley only run every two days, he quickly organized an alternative plan, ensuring that even after arriving at a different destination, we were able to visit six tribes, including witnessing the unforgettable bull-jumping ceremony, all within two days.
Arriving in Addis Ababa much earlier than expected due to flight changes, Daniel once again stepped up, arranging a knowledgeable driver and guide to show us around the city, turning an inconvenience into an opportunity to explore.
A great tour operator isn’t just about planning an itinerary—it’s about being ready to handle the unexpected, and Daniel excelled in every way. His attentiveness, resourcefulness, and warm hospitality made our trip truly special. And to top it all off, his wonderful wife welcomed us into their home for a delicious Ethiopian dinner with honey wine, giving us a true taste of the country’s hospitality.
We highly recommend Daniel to anyone traveling to Ethiopia—his professionalism, connections, and kindness ensured an unforgettable journey!

Courteous
Daniel provided wonderful historical information about locales, prior, via email and during tour. The driver he used was very patient and careful which is very helpful in navigating these roads.

The operation is trustworthy
Dan arranged this 6-day trip very smoothly.
The whole journey is a one-stop service, including round-trip flights, transportation and all meals and accommodations.
He explained the Lalibela churches in great detail and patiently answered our questions, fully demonstrating his native knowledge and professionalism.
Afterwards, he accompanied us on a seven-hour drive from Lalibela to Semera, which seamlessly connected to another journey to Danakil Depression. We passed many checkpoints with guns on the way, but he was able to handle them all with ease and we passed through them smoothly.
Danakil's journey which he entrusted agency was very competent. I have to praise the drivers for being careful and safe. Although the road was bumpy, we felt comfortable sitting there. I have to praise our tour guide Tesfa. He said I belong to lava ,this sentence told me how professional knowledge he did. What's more, he handled the guests' dissatisfaction calmly and with high emotional intelligence (but I think those were the tourists' own problem). I was deeply impressed by him.
This trip is beyond criticism and I sincerely recommend Dan to anyone who comes.
Amazing tour with Daniel!
We booked an 8 day tour with Daniel which was great! We spent two days in Lalibela and he showed us round the churches and took us up to the monastery, he also had us at his home for lunch - Daniel is from Lalibela and has spent a lot of time at the churches so knows a huge amount about them and can you show you lots of different parts that others may not know about. He also took us for drinks on our last day in Lalibela! He then booked us on to a 3 day tour of the Danakil Depression - although this is where we parted ways he continually checked on us to make sure we were okay during the danakil tour! The tour he booked us on to was extremely well planned and amazing to see! He then arranged for us to visit the Tigray region - everything was seamless, he planned all the drivers and accommodation and was flexible to our needs when we had already booked accommodation in certain places. Long after the tour with Daniel ended we needed help contacting a hotel as we didn’t have the ability to make calls to Ethiopian numbers - I messaged Daniel on the off chance he could call for us and he sorted everything out for us and then called us to make sure everything went okay! It was great booking with Daniel and we always felt safe and assured that everything would go to plan!

Dan was knowledgeable, professional and very well organized!
Dan was our guide for 3 days during the Christmas celebrations this year in Lalibela. He was extremely knowledgeable and looked after everything from when we arrived in town until we left! My wife and I had a fantastic time and look forward to visiting Lalibela again with him in the future!
