Sahlie is the ultimate guide for a trip to Ethiopia
5/5

Sahlie is the ultimate guide.
A professional in his work, with extensive knowledge in every field, but most importantly, very sensitive to those around him and very attentive to the travelers with him. A warm recommendation to travel in Ethiopia, in the North or in the South, with the beloved guide Sahli.

Comprehensive support from Discover Simien Tour
5/5

We group of five luckily joined Discover Simien Tour, the manager Sahlie also as guide, travel with us along Erta Ale, Danakil Depression and Lalibela, everythings was well organised including transportation, meals, coordinate local guide. He spotted and described very clear about each specific attraction, made us more understood the environment and culture of different places. Their crew was full support including driver and chef especially in desert region, which are very hot and even under limited resources, we felt comfortable. The scenery of salt lake and Danakil depression is incredible and spectacular!

If you like mountains, you have to hike in Simien mountains range, we went on Feb is dry season, the scenery is amazing like mini Grand Canyon and saw some animals e.g. Gelada monkeys, Bushbuck,Walia Ibex, many birds and the special plant Giant Lobelia can be found along the way. We joined 4 days Simien mountain trip to Ras Bwahit, hike up gradually, easy adapted, we have wonderful hiking experience with wonderful views. The chef and mountain guide were very helpful, provided us nice meal, comfortable tent and comprehensive guiding along the way.

Not only natural scenery, if you like culture, you have to go to South of Ethiopia, Turmi and Omo Valley, there are many tribes, we visited 5 tribes in 4 days, e.g. Hamar, Daasanach, Karo, Konso and Dorze, each of the tribes have own culture and living habit. The local guides introduced us clearly about their own tribes, made us more understood and seems live is not easy but they are enjoyable.

If you still have time, you have to visit Axum and Lalibela, the historical importance of Axum, the ruins of the Axumite Empire, it was the founder affected all over the places. The Rock-hewn churches of Lalibela definitely worth to visit, their construction was amazing, known more their religion and history.

We spent 17 days in Ethiopia, luckily found Discover Simien Tour from Safari booking. They arrange comprehensive itinerary in many parts of Ethiopia, we felt safe and enjoyable in the natural scenery, culture and history.

Great operator.
5/5

I did the northern historical circuit in August 2025. 11 days in total including Tigray churches Axum Gondar and Addis Ababa as well as Danakil depression and Harar. What distinguishes him is that he chooses only the best guides in each one city.

Sahlie was outstanding knowledgeable, respectful, and clearly well connected with the communities.
5/5

Recently went on a 4-day tour with Simien tour exploring different indigenous tribes in the Omo Valley , and I can honestly say it was one of the most meaningful travel experiences I’ve ever had.

The itinerary was thoughtfully planned each day brought us to a different community, with time to listen, learn, and engage respectfully. We visited 7 tribes and were welcomed with such generosity. We got to witness traditional ceremonies, learn about their crafts, daily life, and history. It never felt rushed or staged the company clearly values authentic, ethical tourism. Accommodations were simple but clean and comfortable, and the logistics ran smoothly the entire trip. I especially appreciated how the tour emphasized mutual respect and left space for real conversations, not just photo ops.
