Turning Your Dream Vacation Into a Reality

Visiting the tribal markets at Turmi and Alduba, including walking to the Turmi market from Buska Lodge; and sitting in a Hamer mud hut drinking coffee was the most exciting and memorable part of the holiday.

Walk to the Turmi market from the Buska Lodge; don’t rush to take photos at the tribal villages (walk around and chat with people first).

This went above and beyond all expectations. Such warm, beautiful people everywhere that we went. We ate well, saw and experienced incredible things: all wonderful.

My favorite places to stay: Simien Lodge (so comfortable, with hot warer bottles to take to bed), Lalibela Lodge (beautiful views over the stunning town)  and Gheralta Lodge. The Fasil Lodge in Gondar had the most warm and helpful hosts to look after us too.

Dear Eskinder,

Many thanks for enabling us to have such a wonderful holiday in Ethiopia. It was such a well organised trip and we were very grateful that you met us at the airport, took us out and about in Addis Ababa and then drove us back to the airport at the end.

The guides in the other places were superb, had such excellent knowledge and were so pleasant to spend time with. I cannot rate the holiday highly enough!
Many thanks and all the very best!

The people are wonderful and help make the country so good. We had three weeks of traveling around Ethiopia with at least five internal flights within the country so we tried to cover the country which is simply VAST. There were many days of long drives over rough roads but the drivers, 4 wheel drive cars and the guides were absolutely first rate

This part of Africa was a fascinating insight into a hugely varied country of lovely people – many leading a very hard life in good humour and without apparent religious or ethnic conflict. Their welcome was invariably friendly and helpful and an effort to make us welcome.
