Beka is one of the most inspiring, kind, smart and genuine people I have ever met in my life.  And there is quite some competition there.We had an amazing trip throughout the 9 days I spent with him. It actually felt more like travelling with my smart, local besty than being with a guide.He made me feel safe, showed me the most amazing and remote places and as he knows half of Ethiopian population (or maybe more) we always had VIP treatment wherever we went.Beka is so smart, he knows 7 languages, all about Ethiopia but you can also chat with him about cultures, politics and other topics from around the globe. Plus he has energy for 5 people. What he manages in a day, most people want even remotely finish within a month, no kidding. Just impressive.We had so many laughs, serious talks, emotional conversations and just really became true friends.Travel with him if u want the BEST experience of Ethiopia. But be careful, you might be really sad when u leave because you will wish to take him back home with u ;)Thanks for those amazing trip Beka. Sister timmy subscribe anytime again! (Yeah, we also have insider jokes after only 9 days together hahaha).

Beka is very well organized. He knows the best accommodation and restaurants in all places. And he has contacts all over the country. So he can save you a lot of money . He cares for his clients and their safety. Because of his broad knowledge of the country and its history,  you will get the most out of your trip.

Truly outstanding! Beka was much more than just a regular guide. My dad and I did a 10-day tour of Danakil, Lalibela and South Omo Valley. It went perfectly, all delivered as agreed beforehand. But in fact, we got so much more than that! Our every wish was catered to, be it looking for peanuts all over Addis, sending my postcards after we have left  or attending a genuine bull-jumping ceremony. Our major concern with the Omo tribes was to stay away from human zoo stuff and any circus bullshit set up as a tourist trap. It find it fair enough; we did not meet any other tourists in the villages. Beka handled all the tips for locals, rushed us through airport lines and made every effort to reduce the costs as we had instructed him. I can sincerely say that was the journey of our lives. I could not wish for a better guide. Great thanks to Beka!

My husband and I wanted to visit Ethiopia to trek to the birthplace of coffee. Beka helped us organize a wonderful tour. When things came up or didn't go as planned, Beka always stepped in to make everything right. For example, once we arrived in rural Ethiopia to begin our trek, we realized that our phones didn't have enough space for all of our photos, and the hotel's WIFI wasn't fast enough for us to upload pictures at the end of each day. So, Beka went out and found us an SD card so that we could backup our photos and be able to document our trip the way we wanted. I grew up travelling, and have visited over 100 countries--this is one of the best tours I have ever had. If I visit Ethiopia again, I will definately organize another tour with Beka--he is a great person and an awesome guide.

Beka was a highlight in our sightseeing of Addis. He showed a lot of regions, Museums, Coffeeshops, different areas, Market, Churches etc of the city, always being super quick in communication, totally reliable in timetables, in good mood and a very good driver. Really aware of many things he gave us information about the history and the presence of the country which was all but superficial. And now that we left, he is still helping us with finding stamps and  posting our letters . The guide you need in Äthiopia.
