Addis Ababa Tour Guide - Beyene A.

Beyene A.

Ethiopia

Hello dear travelers. This is Beyene. But please call me by my nick name, 'Bayu'. I was born and raised in Gondar, a historical city in north western part of Ethiopia known for medieval history and culture, but now working and living in Addis Ababa since the last 16 years. I joined the hospitality business when I was in my home town as a local guide taking tourists around the city and to the breathtaking Simen mountains national park.Then this coincidence of meeting many tourists from different countries, eventually grew up and motivated me for further education which I finally came to Addis Ababa to attend tourism college. Here I studied and got diploma in tour guiding techniques and travel operation. With this the Federal Government of Ethiopian Tourism Commission has certified me as a national tour guide to escort travelers all over the country. In addition, the Amhara reginal state tourism office has also licensed me as a local guide. This time, I am a member of Ethiopian professional tourist guides Association based in Addis Ababa. For me travelling is just more than a business and is simply a source of excitement by meeting new people and make them happy through social and intercultural exchanges. Ethiopia's long history, divers culture, ancient tradition and beliefs, stunning geography, archeology, unique nature and the society's way of life are the main factors that attracts tourists all year round. This condition always makes me to go off the beaten-truck and discover places which are beyond the routine destinations. In line of this, I'm became very much keen on travelling and familiar with almost all destinations in the country, which is from the historic route in the north to the cultural destination to Omo valley tribes in the south; from the adventurous Danakil depression and Eta'ale to trekking in the Simen and Bale mountains National parks; from coffee tours in the Ethiopian rift valley system to the bird watching activities across the country. Above all, Addis Ababa is my favorite city where I got a better knowledge about Ethiopian tourism in general. lt is a vibrant city where diversified ethnic groups all over the nation are living together in peace and harmony. In addition to being the capital of Ethiopia and Africa the whole, it also served as a commerical and political hub of the country hosing local and international organizations. Such as:- AU/African Union, EU/European Union, ECA/Economic Commissioned for Africa including embassies and consulates of different countries in the world. Because of that Addis Abeba became one of the best tourist stops in the country where a short and long term travelers are coming for their holidays. The city encompasses many things to be seen either in a half or full day city tours including day trips to a nearby places.To mention but few are:- the national Museum where the 3.2 million years old Lucy is located, mount Entoto where the old grass thatched roof palace of king Menellik ll is still standing, Trinity Cathedral from which the remains of emperor Hailesilassie and his families are rested, Markato the busiest and largest open air market in Africa, St. George church erected up to recall the victory of Adewa over Italy in 1886. Plus historical monuments and squares; coffee houses and traditional restaurants; amusement parks and night life clubs are the few spots on which travelers shall have a life time experience. Therefore, when ever you have a chance to visit Addis Ababa/Ethiopia or a short transit at Bole intl airport, please contact me anytime to join my tour and let we together uncover the hidden wonders! I look forward to welcome and spend a wonderful time with you. See you soon!

Jinka Tour Guide - Casa D.

Casa D.

Ethiopia

Greetings travelers, welcome onboard. I'm a certified young and passionate outdoor enthusiast who had been sponsored and fostered by a kind-hearted Dutch man from the Netherlands. I was still a teenager when I was taken to the capital city, Addis Ababa alongside my little brother to receive a better education. I'm originally from a small town in the omo valley called Keyafer. on that blessed day I was running after other tourists to sell small souvenirs when I was called by an English-speaking local guide from the area standing with my little brother and a tall descent looking white man in In front of a hotel room. At first, I was hesitant but then I slowly approached them. What followed after was an astonishing history. But here I'm, finished high school, went to a vocational training college to earn a diploma. where I attended special courses for tour service, tour guiding, tour operation, and management I then followed it with a Bachelor’s degree at a university to major in the field of Tourism and hotel management. I'm a responsible, caring, and friendly young man who takes his profession seriously and works hard to give his clients a memorable tour service worthy of their money. I also presume having lived with a Westerner smoothens my relationship with my clients and gives me the bragging right of understanding various cultures and backgrounds of my clients.

Knowledgeable, Friendly and Passionate

It was my first time visiting Addis Ababa. I'm glad Mehammed was our guide. His explanation of Ethiopia's history was well organized and easy to understand even for someone like me who is not a native English speaker. He is proud of his homeland of Ethiopia and his work as a guide. This is important. I would recommend him as a guide to anyone visiting Ethiopi

Thank you so much for traveling with me and for taking time to recommend me.

Beautiful walk through impressive landscapes

Blue Nile gorge, Jemma valley and Portuguese bridge are absolutely amazing places of fantastic beauty. If you are in Ethiopia for only one day it is for sure the must-visit place. It would give a lot of unforgettable memories (and photos) to those who prefer walking in nature over city sightseeing. Our guide Demeke was very friendly, punctual, respectable guy with perfect English and a huge amount of knowledge regarding the tour. Highly recommended, 10/10
