The tour guide Barnabas was very kind and informative. He came and picked me up from the hotel on time and took his time to show me around Addis Ababa church and museum. He also took me to Shero area where l did my shopping and had lunch with coffee ceremony that was included in the package. I would highly recommend him to solo or group tourists visiting Addis Ababa to book with Barnabas.

My Visit to Ethiopian National Museum and Shiro Meda Market
My experience was a fantastic group tour of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. We visited historical and cultural heritage sites. Our guide, Barnabas, was kind and went out of his way to assist us in purchasing cultural clothes and souvenirs. I highly recommend him if you're looking for a memorable experience in Addis Abeba.
