A fascinating trip to the northern part od Ethiopia organized by SimienEcoTours
SimienEcoTours is the company that organized our safari trip in a perfect way. The programme of the journey was very impressive. The well-informed guides did their best to show us the highlights of their contry. They gave us enough time to photograph the breathtaking scenic views and told us interesting information about the world famous churches of Lalibela and others. My expectations were fulfilled and I'm looking forward to a trip to the southern part of Ethiopia as soon as it will be possible. - Of course organized by SimienEcoTours again!
Best wishes P.S.

Great insight into the culture and nature of Northern Ethiopia and excellent consultation
The connections to SimienEcoTours and the consultations before our tour were excellent. Our drivers drove responsible and safely in all situations. They cleaned up the bus every day. The local guides had good knowledge of their subjects and tranfered it very well to our group. Our guide for the entire tour was always open to our questions and he organized the daily programs in a good timing, including the contacts in the hotels. The individual choice of meals during our tour was very pleasant. We had many contacts to the culture of Northern Ethiopia and got a lot of informations about the different regions and their fascinating history. The program was very well planned and we had a great time in Ethiopia. I would highly recommend our tour operator SimienEcoTours. Our expectations were met to a high degree.

Two German couples on a well organized and guided tour to the highlights of Northern Ethiopia
A good plan is half the success: our plan to go to Ethiopia was detailed and finalized together with Franziska Gerling, an experienced guide of SimienEco Tours with lots of on site know-how about what to see and how to travel. On our trip with a designated and excellent guide and an experienced and safe driver we found out, that our plan was worth a lot in a dynamic and vital environment of such a tour. Our guide and driver had a good feeling to give us the time we needed to see what we wanted to see, to get in tough with the Ethiopian people and to experience the things you need to understand this country. But they had also a clear idea of the overall schedule which finally made this trip unforgettable for us.

I would recommend SimienEcoTours to anyone who is planning to visit Etiopia!
SimienEcoTours is an organization that makes tourists feel important. The organization offers good services regarding safari tours and tries very hard to meet the expectations of the visitors in the best possible manner. Communications were understandable in both language and resoning. To the best of their abilities the organization fullfilled my expectations.

Simien Eco Tours organised a flexible, amazing, adventurous and responsible a-la-carte tour for us!
Planning our travel with Simien Eco-Tours was an easy and very relaxed process. We had very specific needs and desires for this trip and each of them were looked into with great attention and flexibility. Our trip had to be very condensed and the team worked around our timeframe very well. The guides were amazing (both in Harar and the Simien Mountains), very knowledgeable, relaxed, friendly and pleasant. We always felt safe and were able to enjoy this trip at any time! The choices of accommodation and restaurants were always spot on, and the drivers and cars were very safe. We had been in Ethiopia before so we also know how hard it can be to organise such a complicated trip with our timeframe, but Simien Eco-tours managed perfectly! The safari in the Simien Mountains were the ultimate moment of the trip, our guide was patient and extremely knowledgeable. We loved it!

Professional and perfect organisation with super guide and driver
To me our trip to Ethiopia has been an adventure in the first place. I didn't have any expectations other than completely relying on SimienEcoTours and their organization. I felt perfectly safe during the trip with our guide Abebaw and the driver Melis and I was well prepared with all the information which we had got before the trip. During the trip we had regular contact with the tour office of SimienEcoTours and had the opportunity to give feedback or ask for changes. Both Abebaw, our guide, and Melis, our driver, were good company during the entire trip and Abebaw did a perfect job as an ambassador for his country. I learnt a lot about Ethiopia and its people and I am sure that I will come back in the future.
