Maereg was a thoughtful and well informed guide and operator
5/5

Traveling alone to Ethiopia, I met Maereg on line who helped me plan my trip. He was thoughtful and took extra time to ensure that I saw what I came to visit. He was very knowledgeable and very patient answering my questions and helping me learn about the beauty, culture and history of Ethiopia. This was one of the best trips I have taken thanks to Maereg. Having travelled to more than 140 countries, I give Maereg, my highest recommendation

I had a great time visiting the churches. There were many interesting facets to each church. I visited over 3 days and each day displayed a different section of the territory. I highly recommend. This was a great value.

My best recommendation to visit Lalibela
5/5

We expend wonderful time at Lalibela, and most of this was because of our guide, Maereg. He was so kind, professional, and helpful, and took good care of us. The allocation was perfect with incredible views, and the food out of comments!!! His knowledge about history and religion is amazing, and he generously shares with you. His devotion is something than we will remember through the years. He really touched our souls. Thank you my friend!
Somos una pareja Argentina que pasó unos días maravillosos en Lalibela, mayormente gracias a Maereg nuestro guía, que fue tan amable, profesional, y nos ayudo y cuidó en todo momento. El alojamiento es precioso, y con unas vistas impresionantes, y la comida igual. Su conocimiento del lugar, la historia y la religión es increíble, y lo comparte. La devoción con la que habla la amos a recordar para siempre, realmente nos tocó el corazón.

When is the best tours that we have ever taken.
5/5

At the beginning of the tour, I had a lot of doubt about the safety of being in Ethiopia. Once we arrived at the airport, we met Maereg and I started to feel more comfortable. At each moment, he made us feel safe and always was very attentive. At every step, he would answer any question that we would have. He was also an amazing photographer and took many great photos! Because of this and many more reasons, he made the trip to Ethiopia unforgettable. Thank you Maereg and team for all your help! God bless you! 🙏

Knowledgeable, professional and patient!
5/5

Excellent services provided by Maereg and his Team. The local guides and the drivers - Geta (my fave) were all great. They were patient, professional, knowledgeable and took great care of us. Everything was seamlessly coordinated and they were always on time for pickups and made sure we were briefed in advance of the itinerary and any changes. One of my top travel destinations in Africa with some of the kindest and warmest people. Maereg went above and beyond! First class service with always with a smile!

Truly Extraordinary
5/5

If you want to experience the true wonders of Ethiopia, you need an extraordinary guide like Maereg and his team.
Their knowledge, professionalism and attention to detail made for an amazing experience.
Maereg was very attentive and accommodating. It’s apparent that he wanted to make sure we were comfortable and felt secure.
All we had to do was relax and enjoy this incredible country.
I would highly recommend Maereg and his team.

Touring the rich culture of Ethiopia
5/5

This was indeed an extraordinary kaleidoscope adventure. From the big city of Addis to the castles, to the beautiful bush country. We were immensed, in the history and culture of Ethiopia. The reception of the people was so welcoming. Meareg my tour guide was exceptional from the moment I arrived to departure day. A once in a lifetime experience.

Extraordinary Ethiopia tours were responsive to our needs and requests
4/5

Communication with Maereg was great, a wonderful guide for Lalibela and norther regions and great to be around. He was reliable and provided a great personalised service. We really enjoyed our time here and could have stayed longer. Sora Lodge was wonderful. Due to concerns of unrest we had to change part of itinerary and ended up going to Omo Valley as part of tour. We felt this region was at times problematic, tour did not run as smoothly, level of accommodation and service not to as high a standard as provided in the north.
