8 national park tours are covered here, and these 8 are the ones to look at first. Prices, durations and what each one actually includes are all below.
Two days of wildlife spotting in Awash National Park from Addis, with two game drives, Genet Hotel overnight, and meals included.
“The Awash National Park has been closed for two years for security concerns (or so the guide said), so the first drive was cancelled. The advertisement is a lie.”
4-day Simien Mountains trek from Gondar into Ethiopia’s World Heritage highlands, with guides, scout, 4WD, camp gear, food, and wildlife.
“I have traveled the world with my family to hike and explore the greatest eco-tourist destinations in the world, and I can say with 100% certainty that the North Ethiopian Tour Operator Company is by far best in class. First off, Adem is a great Read more”
5 days Addis Ababa, Harar, Dire Dawa and Awash National Park: museums, walled city, cave paintings, game drives, meals included.
“Needed to change the date and the operator would not oblige. I understand that we needed to move it but at least offer us a discount to rebook the trip or something. In other words don't book this trip unless you are in country and ready to go. At this time still no refund.”
Two days from Addis Ababa to Awash NP: hot springs, waterfalls, and an evening game drive with pickup and an English guide.
“Josephs (a guide) and Nico (a driver) were really kind and professional. I always felt at ease to be guided by them. If you have only 2 or 3 days in Ethiopia and like to fully enjoy the beautiful nature of this country, I should recommend this tour.”
Four days trekking in Ethiopia’s Simien Mountains, from Debark to Buwahit, with escarpment cliffs, gelada, and possible Walia ibex sightings.
“Solomon and the ETT team were amazing, reliable, punctual and professional. Truly recommend ETT as a great partner in Ethiopia:)”
Serious 7-day Simien trek from Gondar with park admissions, full meals, daily hikes to 4200m, big views, and possible rare wildlife.
“Me and my friends love to trek. We has been trekking since young age and we trekked more than 17 mountains all around the world. This one was special because we enjoyed all the arrangements by the tour company and also the place is wonderful. Trekkers if you want to experience high quality service in Ethiopia choose this company”
Trek Bale Mountains from Dinsho to the high alpine zones for Ethiopian Wolf chances, big birdlife, and a culture night in Addis.
“Bale mountain was great and we saw animals and the mountains view was unbelievable please check it out and check out walkin Ethiopia”
Awash National Park and Debre Zeit crater lakes in two days, with a game drive, Doho Lodge hot springs, and a lake boat trip.
“Good couple of days. It’s a long couple of days though, the trip to Doho was long and hot. The guide didn’t really chat to us much at first but I did get to know him a lot and enjoyed his time. Doho is a nice lodge, the hot springs are great, but they are hot! And awash is always hot! So stay hydrated! Didn’t see any animals AT ALL in the park, so avoid that. Humans have sadly taken over! The crocs were cool at the beautiful falls though! Bit expensive this tour but good experience!”
