Hi, my name is Awet please join me to show you around this beautiful country and its happy people. During this trip I will give you a real Ethiopia local experience, eating local food, joining local events, and more. I am looking for adventurous TripMates so if you are one of them feel free to join this trip! Why Ethiopia is special? Addis Ababa is the capital of Ethiopia, a country that has a rich and unique history dating back thousands of years. It's home to many museums and historical sites, including the National Museum of Ethiopia, which houses ancient artifacts and manuscripts, and the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, one of the oldest Christian churches in the world. What is included in the price? - Accommodation (Private room) - Transportation (Car rental) -All entries to Museum etc. For other locations around the city, we will mostly walk or use public transport, and we will pay for those on the spot. We can decide on the spot for food and other extra costs and split them later during the trip. The price for food per person for every day approximately would be 15-30 euros if we are reasonable, but there is a bit of everything in Ethiopia. See you!
