I
have loved Ethiopia for a long time. It was wonderful to
return and see the changes. I arranged the trip through Fest
Ethiopia. As we all know, Ethiopia is unlike any country in
the world, and has been Christian since the fourth century. |

Oded, Uri & Ariella from Israel
I
will never forget Lalibela and the people we met there
...the sweet children that adopted us and followed us all
around. We arrived in Lalibela on a Saturday and saw the
long March to the Market and it was so beautiful and also
sad because we understood how far the people had to work and
carry.

The
Maartens from South Africa
Before
leaving for Ethiopia, we had the feeling that something out
of the ordinary was awaiting us. We are somewhat addicted to
unusual and adventurous undertakings, but this time we
intuitively knew that we would also encounter some sobering
and thought-provoking things.

Brill from Greece
After
a month in Bangkok, I flew on Ethiopian Airlines direct to
Addis Ababa for a two week visit. Mari, my wife, didn't want
to go because she felt it would be a hardship trip for her.
In many respects she was right, which I'll mention later,
but for me I'm really glad I went I was thinking of seeing
Ethiopia for years but something always came

My
sister finally retired and we were able to take a long
anticipated trip to Africa. We had been hoarding frequent
flyer miles and found that we could get as far as Addis
Ababa in Ethiopia so we decided to begin our adventures
there. We got on the Internet and found Fest Ethiopia a
local our company run by a charming and

Shulmans from United States
After
a couple of days in Addis to get on the time zone we began
our adventure to the south. Our first stop was Lake Langano
which was most delightful. The bird life was incredible as
were the people.

Hovind
& Hobbelstad from Norway
Finally,
the tax declarations are done and submitted and it is time
to enjoy our good memories from our visit to Ethiopia. We
are still amazed about all your country had to offer and the
outstanding service you and your people gave us. The route
was excellent. If I should have made any changes, that would
have been to extend the duration of our stay in Ethiopia
with another week and traveled to the East and visited the |

Thomas from The Bahamas
"Ethiopia
- why on earth are you going to Ethiopia" was the
response we got from friends and associates when we told
them of our September vacation plans… The answer was
simple! We look for a contrasting culture, a rich historical
heritage and the opportunity to get in a car and travel for
miles. Our reading suggested that Ethiopia would

Lorna
& Family from United Kingdom
I’d
been to Ethiopia several times already and traveled the
Northern Historical Circuit. This time I would be traveling
with my 24 year old daughter, who is into energetic outdoor
pursuits like rock-climbing rather than just looking at
historical sites. I needed to find something that would
excite both of us.

The
Travel Directors from Australia
We
were researching a possible escorted tour to Ethiopia next
year and visited Addis, Axum. Gondar, Bahir Dar and
Lalibela. We were dazzled by the sights, the sounds, the
smells of this amazing part of the world. Above all we were
overwhelmed by the friendliness and generosity of spirit of
the people.
