Amazing Addis Ababa City Tour! I had an amazing tour of Addis Ababa with my guide, Reta. He is very professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing Ethiopia’s rich history, culture, and traditions. I was very happy to meet him and have the opportunity to explore this beautiful country with his guidance. Reta made the experience enjoyable, memorable, and special. I highly recommend him to anyone visiting Addis Ababa who wants to discover the beauty and culture of Ethiopia. Thank you, Reta, for such a wonderful experience. I hope to see you again 🙏

I agree with some of the comments here. Reta is a great option to go through local areas with a local if you don't want to do it alone but don't expect great or interesting facts. No historical, political, geographical, etc... information. Nevertheless he's a great chaperone through the city.

Getachew (che in italiano si traduce tranquillamente in Gaetano 🙂) è stato un amico più che una guida. Ero l’unico partecipante al tour, e ha saputo variare in tempo reale alcuni dettagli del tour venendo in contro a tutte le mie richieste. Mi ha fatto visitare luoghi che solo un profondo conoscitore della città può conoscere e scoprire mi sono sempre sentito in totale sicurezza. Mi ha dato consigli importanti per la prosecuzione del mio viaggio anche fuori da Addis. Non posso che consigliarlo al 100%!

Touring Addis with Micheal was an exceptional experience! Is was real, is was raw, and it was perfectly curated for two 40 year old women. We did not want the touristic frills; instead we wanted to daily lifestyle and market shopping, the typical coffee experience and the cultural walks. It's exactly what we got! He knows good English, he is charismatic and knows how to read our rythme too (moments when we needed an extra coffee, or even a water break we're perfect!) we also took a day trip to Wenchi with him, got caught in some heavy religious celebration traffic in a small town on our way, and had great laughs about it all! A high note: it was all in an electric car with great Ethiopian music along the way! We would strongly recommend Micheal to anyone looking for the "real deal" !

We joined the “Free Tour in Addis Abeba, Ethiopia” and ended up having a private tour with Getachew. He was very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable, guiding us through all the main locations and always going at our pace while we explored. It was a great way to get to know the city. Definitely recommended.

Reta took us around various places in Addis, he showed us many places and gave us a lot of information about each area we were in. He was happy to personalise the tour to what we wanted to do and even helped us find an ethiopia football top! Id definitely reccomend the tour to anyone!

Wir hatten eine unvergessliche Zeit mit Reta! Spontan haben wir als Einstieg unserer Äthiopienreise diese Freetour gebucht und wurden mehr als überzeugt. Da die Sehenswürdigkeiten sehr weit von einander entfernt liegen und es regnete, hat uns Reta in seinem Auto mitgenommen. Mein Mann und ich haben uns stets sehr sicher und wohl gefühlt. Reta spricht super Englisch und ist ein angenehmer Gesprächspartner. Nach einer coolen Kaffeezeremonie unter Einheimischen, besuchten wir einen authentischen Markt und haben dort viel gesehen und gerochen. Auch im Nationalmuseum bekamen wir einen ausreichenden Rundgang mit Erklärungen zu Lucy. Während der Fahrt haben wir viele andere Orte kennengelernt und vieles über Land und Leute erfahren. Am Abend sind wir im Rahmen einer extra-Tour in ein traditionelles Restaurant mit äthiopischer Tanzmusik gegangen. Auch hierbei war Reta ein angenehmer und lustiger Guide! Ohne ihn hätten wir Addis nicht von dieser Seite kennen gelernt. Ich kann die Tour nur schwerstens empfehlen und würde sie jederzeit wieder buchen!!

Getachew is an amazing guide. He explained the history of Ethiopia, commented most of the National Museum artifacts, then showed us different buildings, showed us the Entoto mountain and the old palace as well as the Merkato. We really appreciated he took time to answer all our questions. We feel having seen most of Addis with this tour. Definitely recommend it!

The original guide wasn’t available, and instead, I had Yeshi, who was excellent. He was really attentive and adapted the tour to my interests since I was the only person. Although the tour had a few initial hiccups, Yeshi made it a really personal and enjoyable experience. I’d definitely recommend him for a custom tour.”

An Unforgettable Deep Dive into Addis Ababa – A Masterclass in Local Culture I recently had the pleasure of spending a full day exploring Addis Ababa with Getachew Ageze, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. It was supposed to be a free tour but it became a paid full tour since I wanted to discover more. If you are looking for a guide who goes far beyond the standard tourist trail to provide an authentic, immersive experience, Getachew is the perfect choice. We covered a vast amount of ground in a single day, but the pace felt natural and incredibly well-structured. We began with the historical significance of the Holy Trinity Cathedral before diving into the vibrant, chaotic energy of Merkato. Getachew’s navigation of the market was seamless—we explored the fascinating recycling area of Minalesh Terra and even managed to climb to a rooftop for a spectacular panoramic view of the market that I would never have found on my own. One of the standout moments was lunch. Getachew took me to a truly "off-the-beaten-path" spot for a fasting Beyanetu platter. It was hands-down one of the most delicious, authentic meals I’ve had; it’s the kind of hidden gem you only find with a local expert. The absolute highlight of the day, however, was the coffee ceremony at Tesfa Coffee. Instead of just watching, Getachew ensured I was fully involved in the process—from grilling the beans to the brewing. It was an intimate, tactile, and deeply memorable experience that grounded the entire day. We rounded off the afternoon with a visit to the Entoto Historical Museum before finishing up at Sheromeda Market. Getachew is knowledgeable, attentive, and passionate about his city. He made me feel safe and engaged throughout the entire day. Whether you are a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveler, Getachew Ageze is an exceptional guide who will help you see the heart and soul of Addis Ababa.

Nous avons passé un excellent moment lors de cette excursion à travers les principaux points d'intérêt d'Addis-Abeba. Notre guide était vraiment exceptionnel : très sympathique, souriant, disponible et passionné. Il n'a pas hésité à consacrer bien plus de temps que prévu pour que nous puissions profiter pleinement de la visite, sans jamais nous presser. Il nous a également ramenés en voiture, ce qui a été très apprécié. Grâce à lui, nous avons découvert de nombreux endroits fascinants de la ville dans une ambiance détendue et conviviale. Une expérience inoubliable que je recommande sans hésitation à tous ceux qui souhaitent découvrir Addis-Abeba dans les meilleures conditions. Merci encore pour cette magnifique journée !

I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Addis Ababa. Getachew was very knowledgeable about the city's history and culture and was always happy to answer questions. He was also flexible with the meeting time and made the experience enjoyable and informative. One suggestion would be to make the tour description a bit clearer. It would be helpful to mention that taxis are used for most of the stops, as we were expecting a fully walking tour and could have prepared better for a mix of walking and transportation. I would also suggest changing the meeting point. We met near a plaza and then took a taxi to the National Museum of Ethiopia. Starting the tour at the museum instead would have been more efficient and would have saved some us time.

El tour es muy intimo, ya que el grupo es sumamente pequeño. La verdad es que nuestro guía fue muy bueno y nos dio muchos datos interesantes de Etiopía. Sin embargo, originalmente el tour fue reservado en español pero el tour se dio en inglés. Afortunadamente sabíamos el idioma y no fue dificil comunicarnos.
