Ethiopia holidays, tailor made reviewed by katie gray
It's really difficult to say. I think it was the range of things we saw and learnt about. Obviously the three days we spent in Lalibela over Timket were extraordinary - but so was watching our guide in Harar negotiate for a can of camel milk in a local village. We also loved our guest house in Harar.
To lengthen rather than shorten your holiiday
Make sure you keep your baggage locked at all times.
Be aware that in isolated lodges (where that is the only place to eat), such as the one in the Simien mountains, the prices are understandably much higher than elsewhere.
We were really glad to have this tour operator plan our holiday for us. Eskinder's network of local drivers and guides was brilliant!
We decided we couldn't really call it a holiday - it was a trip - one that was quite demanding physically and intellectually as we saw and learnt so much, but one that was immensely stimulating.
