Excellent and unforgettable tour

5/5

The tour was excellent. the company provided a very good service and a clear program. Lamesgn treated me like a close friend, not just a client.

I really enjoyed Ethiopian culture, coffee, food, which was a special experience for me. I had a small stomach problem during the Omo valley tour, but the tour guide quickly bought medication for me and helped me until I felt normal again. I really appreciated his care and support.

I wish I had more days to explore all of Ethiopia, but unfortunately I could not because of my work schedule. Based on my experience, I highly recommend this company to anyone who want to explore Ethiopia.
