The Best Guide I’ve Ever Had – Beki Is Exceptional!

I travelled to Ethiopia in 2020 and still consider Beki the best guide I’ve ever had. I’ve visited more than 50 countries and been on countless tours, but no one has matched his warmth, professionalism, and deep passion for sharing his country. He has an incredible knowledge of Ethiopia’s history and culture, as well as the local insights that make every experience unique. A highlight of my journey was visiting Lalibela during Easter. Thanks to Beki’s organisation, connections, and understanding of the local traditions, it was far more than a sightseeing stop. It became a powerful and moving experience that I’ll never forget. Beki went above and beyond every single day. He anticipated our needs, handled every detail effortlessly, and brought genuine energy and joy to every moment. His storytelling brought Ethiopia’s ancient sites to life, and his kindness made the trip truly special. Even years later, I still compare every tour to my experience with Beki. If you have the chance to explore Ethiopia with him, take it. You will be in the very best hands.

An excellent organisation that I can recommend 100%!

My travel companion and I gave Beki the outline of what we wanted to see and do and he came up with a great plan very quickly. In fact, not only did we visit everywhere we suggested, but Beki showed us some amazing places we hadn’t even heard of and that made the trip even more memorable. Beki is the perfect guide, totally trustworthy, very knowledgeable, has fluent English and worked extremely hard to ensure that we were completely safe and happy. Without Beki as our guide, this would have been a good trip - but in Beki’s hands it was a GREAT trip, probably the best I’ve ever been on. Thank you Beki - we are looking forward to next time!

Excellent experiemnce!

Beki picked me up right on time, safely drove me to an historical area of Addis, showed me around along with another part of the city while also explaining much about the history and culture, taking me to a great museum and more. I highly recommend Beki Kibret as a great guide and he speaks good English as well. very polite and profession as well as fair and reasonable in cost. Anyone who choses to use Beki as their guide is assured to have a great experience!
