5.0/5Our family of 10 traveling from both the U.S. and the U.K. booked a 10-day tour with Enat Tours, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment Ashu greeted us at the airport with his warm smile, we felt completely at ease. He was so friendly, easy to talk to, and right away we knew we were in good hands. Ashu is an absolutely incredible tour guide, professional, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about what he does. The way he explained the history and culture of Ethiopia was fascinating; sometimes it felt like we were watching a live documentary. His storytelling was so brilliant, especially when we got to Lalibela. I personally felt transported, completely immersed in the beauty and history of those rock-hewn churches. We explored so many amazing places: Addis Ababa, Blue Nile Falls, Lake Tana, Gondar, the Simien Mountains, and of course, Lalibela. Each destination was special in its own way, and Ashu made every moment unforgettable. He took care of every little detail, made sure we were always comfortable, and kept a smile on his face the entire time. What made this trip even more meaningful is that this was the first time our entire family had traveled together. That could’ve easily been overwhelming, but Ashu handled it all with so much grace and patience. He truly understood us, and it felt like he was part of the family by the end of the trip. Ethiopia is a beautiful country, and this tour opened our eyes and hearts in ways we’ll never forget. But what made it truly special was Ashu, his kindness, his knowledge, his energy, and that constant, genuine smile. Thank you, Ashu, for making our time in Ethiopia so memorable. You’re one of a kind, and we’re so grateful for everything you did for us!

I have had a great experience with Enat Ethiopia Tours. The company was easy to get in communication with and let me know everything I needed to bring as well helped me book additional flights while in Ethiopia. With spectacular scenic views on my tours to The Churches of labella, Danakil Depression incorporated with knowledgeable warm and friendly tour guides my tours were a great experience. I will definitely use this Enat Ethiopia Tours when planning tour in Ethiopia and I would recommend to anyone doing so.

You can see why Enat is the best on trip adviser. He is such a great personality, and his explanations are easy to understand, and entertaining. TBH, I thought the tours were a bit expensive before going, but afterwards I thought the tours are underpriced. Would love to go again.

We had a tour with Ashu. He was educated, knowledgeable, with great English. He was able to navigate us through the city keeping us safe. He just loves his county. His passion, positivity and just pure kindness was beautiful. Highly recommend this tour guide if you ever get the chance.
