Excellent!
We arranged everytjing with Beki. He sorted a complete tour of Lalibella (3 days) which was amazing. Everythimg went smoothly as planned and we were wonderfully looked after. On pur way back he tailored a tour of Addis for the few hours we had, even taking us to a local historic cafe. Notmonly was he knowledgeable but also enthusiastic! Had a great time and would certainly be contacting him again if we are lucky to return.

Hands down the best tour I’ve ever expt
Hands down the best tour I have ever experienced with an amazing tour guide. Beki took care of all my needs and always checked on me when I wasn’t on a tour. He was so good I booked 2 more tours after the extraordinary job he did hosting me in Lalibela. If you are ever in Ethiopia, do yourself a favor and book a tour with East Africa Tours. Beki will take amazing care of you
Response from the operator: Dear Issac, Thank you sincerely for your kind review and thoughtful suggestions. Your words mean a lot to us, and we are truly grateful for your feedback. It warms our hearts to know that you enjoyed the city tours in Addis and Lalibela, as well as the beautiful Great Rift Valley Lakes, Lake Langano, Lake Ziway, Shashemenerasta village, Wondo Genet hot springs, and your time with our guide, Beki. We genuinely look forward to the chance to serve you again and share more memorable moments together. With warm regards, Beki East Africa Tour Operator

3 days in Lalibela from Addis Ababa
We did the 3 days 2 nights Lalibela tour flying from Addis Ababa. When we arrived in Lalibela airport our guide Ermias was there, with the driver, waiting for us, and immediately took us to the hotel for a quick lunch before starting exploring the city of Lalibela. The churches carved in rock are absolutely mesmerizing and deservedly so considered a UNESCO Heritage Site. We also had planned to visit a church around 40km from Lalibela, but due the ongoing conflict in the region we were unable to visit, this was really the only downside of the trip. If you find yourself in Ethiopia, or planning to visit Ethiopia, you should definitely consider a visit to Lalibela, its unlike anything else in the world. Many thanks to our driver, and our guide Ermias. Highly recommend East Africa Tour.
Response from the operator: Dear Rui, Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience with us. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your 3-day Lalibela tour and that the UNESCO World Heritage Site left such a lasting impression. It’s also great to know that Ermias and our driver contributed positively to your trip. We understand the disappointment regarding the visit to the site around 40 km from Lalibela due to the regional conflict, and we appreciate your understanding. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we truly hope you’ll have the opportunity to explore more of Ethiopia’s incredible destinations in the future. Thank you once again for choosing East Africa Tour, and we look forward to welcoming you back someday! Best regards, Beki East Africa Tour

Berlin ... a city full of opportunities to live experiences and forget about the clock.
When you're completing life's puzzle and can look back without anger and forward with excitement, what you value most is your ability to live a full, happy, and satisfying life. Vacations are an excellent time to evaluate your goals. Life has as many goals as there are people, and I have my own. This summer we spent a few days in Berlin, with the sole purpose of letting time pass unhurriedly. Berlin in august is a city full of opportunities to have a great time. With its wide range of parks, lakes, restaurants, museums, festivals, and open-air events like blue neon lights sneaking past the stars, the city really comes into its own when summer descends into august. Beautiful summer days in Berlin, buzzing past midnight and river cruises under mysterious skies. Germany's capital is an open-air city, festive and full of life like an open heart. Berlin, a city full of opportunities to live experiences and forget about the clock.

Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Addis Ababa.
How much does Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights cost?
+
Prices start at $560 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Addis Ababa usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights take?
+
Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Addis Ababa is not rushed.
Is Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Addis Ababa, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Addis Ababa can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Addis Ababa and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Addis Ababa within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Addis Ababa?
+
On Outty we rank every Addis Ababa experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Addis Ababa Authentic Private City Tour, Addis Ababa Guided City Tour With Airport & Hotel Pick Up, Full Day Tour of Addis Ababa with Hotel Pickup and Drop-off. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Addis Ababa?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Addis Ababa?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights?
+
Included: Enter/Admission East Africa Tour Operator; Hotel/Airport pickup and drop-off; Local guide; Lunch; and All Fees and Taxes. Not included: Alcoholic beverages, tips,; Video; and Domestic flights. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 136 listed pickup locations in and around Addis Ababa. Be ready about 120 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Visiting the wonders of Lalibela in Three (3) days and Two ( 2) nights offered in?

+
