Truly an unforgettable Oma Valley Ethiopia
5/5

Communication with Yhun is top notch . He respond quickly on my queries. There was an issue coming in from Eritrea to Ethiopia because there’s no more straight flight connection between these 2 countries so I have to modify my Eritrea trip to be on time to my scheduled trip in Ethiopia . I’m glad I did . Even if we were in the middle of nowhere there’s a hotel, lodge that was pick very well by Yhun that we can rest and be comfortable on . This is an expectacular country to visit the culture , the people and the food . Visiting the Omo Valley with many tribes is such an eye opener . From Arba Minch, to Konso,
To lower Omo valley , to Turin , to Jinka to the Mago National park and then the city Addis Ababa. The 5 days we stayed here are full of excitement and activities
My trip will not be as exciting if we don’t have our funny , loud ( in a good way) very charismatic guide Tarek. And our good driver Adam . Tarek is very enthusiastic showing us the different tribes , even found a tribe gathering/ festivities in our way which is unplanned but very nice that we stop and able to join their festivities. He is not a stranger to anyone he meet which makes ourselves easy to immerse in the cultures and traditions they have .
This trip is very well planned and having a good guide and even having to meet local guides is interesting blend of information we have received .
I definitely enjoyed my trip to Ethiopia . I wish I have more time to see more of the country . If you are looking for a tour company to enjoy this beautiful country . Look no further .

Excellent from start to finish
5/5

Excellent planning and implementation of my 18 day trip to Tigray, Gonder and Simien Mountains as well as the south of Ethiopia.

After I contacted a few local travel providers from Ethiopia for an individual trip lasting around 3 weeks, LiyuEthiopiaTours turned out to be the most competent and professional travel company right from the first contact. Yhun from LiyuTours always responded to my messages quickly, in excellent English and professionally. Yhun immediately put together an individual 18-day trip according to my wishes. Communication was easy via WhatsApp. My numerous questions (e.g. regarding current security situations) and requests were always addressed in the most professional manner and without delay.

When complications arose with my flight booking and applying for my e-visa, Yhun took care of the relevant authorities on site in Addis, thus paving the way for this unforgettable trip.

When I arrived in Ethiopia, my positive experiences continued. The trip was perfectly organized. My accommodation were good. The guides and drivers were outstanding (both personally and professionally). When I got sick for a few days, the guides, drivers and Yhun took excellent care of me. They organized medication and Yhun adjusted my route accordingly. I was impressed by the high degree of flexibility that Yhun demonstrated during my trip in order to best fulfill my wishes on site.

The security situation, which is currently quite explosive in the Amhara region, was also monitored by Yhun and his contacts and I was always kept up to date. I felt safe and in the best hands at all times.

I travel a lot, but I have never experienced such professionalism in planning and implementation, from start to finish. Once again a huge compliment to my driver Gerre and guide Hailay from Tigray, with whom I spent unforgettable days in and around the rock churches of Geralta, Tefera, who was my driver in the south on paper, but qualified as a guide thanks to his immense knowledge, and groom who traveled with me in the Amhara region and cared for me when I was sick.

I am very grateful that I was able to experience this unforgettable time in Ethiopia and highly recommend Liyu Ethiopia.

Awesome City Tour with absolutely great backing of historical facts by conductor
5/5

Yhun Eijgu, general manager of Liyu Ethiopia Tours, provided me with a great experience of visiting main locations in Addis Ababa. It was impressive to be able to learn about the country, the city, the people and the culture. Yhun provided a thorough description of historical facts which helped understand better the sites we visited.

Passionate and very knowledgeable about ethiopia
5/5

I had the pleasure of joining a half day tour of Addis Ababa with Yihun and it was amazing. His knowledge of Ethiopian history and culture and his passion for sharing it was incredible. I left with so much information, curiosity and a new love for Ethiopia. I highly recommend Yihun and this company for any tours.

Perfect organisation
5/5

My daughter and I had an outstanding experience due to the fantastic organisation of our customized 8-day trip including Lake Tana, road trip Bahir Dar to Gondar, Simien Mountains, Lalibela, Harar and Addis Ababa). We met so many lovely people on our way and were very impressed by the knowledge of the local guides. We always felt welcomed, safe and more as a family member than a tourist. We highly recommend this travel agency and will for sure come back.

Fantastic tour operator with local knowledge
5/5

My mother and I had an excellent experience and time with Liyu. They responded super quickly and were very reliable. I asked for customisations to one of their trips, which they were happy to organise for us. The whole trip, which inluded many domestic flights, was organised very well and all guides at each location were excellent. We had a fantastic time visiting the local sights, learning about the history of the country and meeting its lovely people. Would definitely book with them again!

The highest quality and ready to share the best of Ethiopia!
5/5

I was traveling solo and Liyu Tours made it one of the best holidays I ever had. The guides were from the region I visited making it sustainable for the local operators. I really appreciate that. The guides were of the highest quality. The hotels and guesthouses all had something special to offer. And, of course, the food! Can I give this company more stars???
