Our Guides

Please be aware that we do not provide pick-ups from Addis Ababa unless it is for a large group. For groups of more than four travelers, we will pick you up directly from the airport upon your international arrival and assist you to your designated hotel.
The following day, we will take a flight, assuming you have all booked the domestic flight to Arbaminch City in the south, where your tour will officially commence.
If you have already arrived in Addis Ababa in advance, you will meet your tour guide, Casa, who will accompany you on the internal flight to Arbaminch to assist you.
For exclusive solo travelers, we can make new arrangements upon discussion if you are having difficulty finding your bearings in Addis Ababa or facing other amenity-related issues.
Your internal return flight to Addis Ababa will be from Jinka. Jinka Airport will also be the tour's endpoint. You will be transferred in time and dropped off at the departure gate for check-in with a warm farewell and big hugs.
