Above and Beyond Five-Star Service!

Seven Days Ethiopia Tours really went above and beyond for me!! I had been planning a trip to the Danakil Depression for months with a different tour company. When I arrived at the airport, the other tour company canceled my trip and left me stranded with no way to actually reach the Danakil Depression or do the tour at all. Sitting at the airport, I frantically contacted six other tour companies to see if anyone could put together a last-minute trip for the following morning. By then, the morning flight to Semera was completely sold out. The original company had promised they had booked my flights, but they never did. Every company I contacted told me the same thing: without a morning flight to Semera, there was no way to make the trip happen. Seven Days Ethiopia Tours was the only one that went above and beyond and said, “We’re going to get you there.” They put me on the afternoon flight and caught me up with the group. I was able to go to both the volcano and the colorful sulfur site. When I caught up with the group, I asked them what I had missed, and they said I didn’t miss anything. They had only been driving that morning. Thank you so much to Abere, Birhanu, and Seven Days Ethiopia Tours for going above and beyond for me and saving my trip. I’ll never forget my trip to Ethiopia because of you. If you want above-and-beyond customized service, where they literally treat you like royalty, I highly, highly recommend Seven Days Ethiopia Tours!

Amazing experience

I enjoyed my trip with Gashaw so much. He showed me all the major tourist sights of Addis Ababa. We visited Saint Trinity Church, and he talked about everything there. He also showed me amazing local cuisine. We visited non-touristic places and drank nice honey beer. And the price was very reasonable compared to the offers I had been provided by the hotel.

Honest, attentive, and a great person. 100% recommended.

Before I even set foot in Ethiopia, he had already taken care of everything: he found me a good, affordable hotel near the airport, he gave me a SIM card so I could call my family as soon as I landed, and he got me the best possible exchange rate. He's always careful about safety on the tours and suggests activities that match what I'm looking for.
