Oli was a great tour guide who gave lots of interesting information about Ethiopia. Note that some sites are led by a different guide on this tour due to facility restrictions
Very knowledgeable. Very accommodating. Very professional. Kind. A great way to see the city and feel the vibe of Addis
The tour with our tour guide Abe was great. He was very knowledgeable, and looked after the group very well. The tour is a good way to see Addis Ababa.

Oli and the team took us on an truly immersive tour of Addis Abba. During our full day trip we hit a lot of Addis top sites. İncluded on our tour was the National Museum, the ethnological museum, Entoto Mountain and church. Following this, we had a coffee ceremony and moved on to the frenetic Merkato. We closed the day with a special visit to the Ta'eka Negest Be'ata Lemariam Monastery. A mixture of tour guilding from museum and Oli's team was given, which made for a good mox. Highlights of the tour included: wondering the the labyrinth of sellers on the Merkato. We saw the pounding of iron work, washing of clothes, packing of cheese, and the sale of a variety of house hold items, souvenirs, and jewellery. At the National Museum we had an enthusiastic and entertaining story given regarding the birth of humanity and the exiting discoveries around Ethiopia, along with shots of the famous Lucy. A particular highlight was visiting the beautiful Ta'eka Negest Be'ata Lemariam Monastery where we played a ceremonoal drum and saw the resting place for Menelik II.
We had an amazing day tour of Addis Ababa on a long layover though ADD, with our guide Abe and driver Tade. Abe was friendly, welcoming, professional and extremely knowledgeable. Abe was very generous sharing his knowledge and experience of both history and culture, and Tade was super friendly and professional, getting us through bad Addis Ababa traffic safely and efficiently! We didn’t have super long but it still felt like a great introduction to this beautiful city. Highly recommend Liyu Ethiopia Tours, and Abe & Tade in particular !
The tour was great and the tour guides were very patient with us and they took their time in explaining every details of each places we visited. They’re reliable and you can book a tour with them anytime you visit Ethiopia..
I was a bit adamant about doing the tour by myself during my 25h layover, but it was the best decision ever. I got to see the city and learn its nuances, understand its history through the museums and city monuments, its culture through pottery traditions, and last but not least, the one I was most excited for was experiencing the beauty of the Orthodox faith. Everything was so reflective, I cannot thank my guide Yhun and Oli, who only were well informed on everything but also good compamy.
My guide Oli was awesome, a lot of knowledge, perfect customer service, ensuring that my preferences were met as we went. Highly recommend!
I had a wonderful half-day tour in Addis Ababa with Liyu Tours, truly an amazing experience! The tour guide, Olinol, was very knowledgeable, polite, and friendly. He shared so many interesting details about Ethiopia’s history and culture, You can really tell he loves what he does and takes pride in showing visitors the real Ethiopia. Also, Mr. Liyu is honestly one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet on your trip. If you choose to go with them, trust me, you’ll be making the right decision. It’s an unforgettable experience that lets you see the country on a much deeper level. They truly focus on authenticity, making you feel like a local, not just a visitor. And if you’re a solo female traveler, don’t look anywhere else, you’ll genuinely feel like you’re with family when you choose them. ***HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ***
We had a great time on this tour. Abe was very knowledgeable and clearly excited to share his country with us. We had to cut it short due to our flight schedule. I would have loved to have more time with him. We greatly appreciated Awet's driving. It was during rush hour and he maneuvered it seamlessly. I really recommend this tour and Abe and Awet. Thank you 😊
