Free walking tours in Addis Abeba

Good overview of the city! Highly recommended. Took considerably longer but justified given what you get to see.

Would use Kenaw again? Absolutely yes!

The tour with Kenaw was a very good way to break the ice with Addis Abeba and to go to places that I would have missed on my own.

Muy agradable en el trato. Muy buen guía por sus conocimientos y atención del turista.

Super Guide, viel Hintergrundwissen, zeigte uns ein paar versteckte Orte und ging auch auf unsere Wünsche ein. Die Verständigung war auf englisch sehr gut. Sehr zu empfehlen, gerne wieder.

Merece totalmente la pena el tour para tener un primer acercamiento con la realidad de esta capital que sorprende positivamente. La amabilidad del guía es inigualable. Totalmente recomendable

Kenaw è simpatico, mi ha fatto una buona impressione, e passare qualche ora con lui è stato il modo perfetto per conoscere Addis Ababa. Consiglio certamente! In più, ottimo ristorante e caffè!

I feel soooo grateful to Reta! He was great!! He was very kind and generous with his time from the beginning to the end. We were on a long stopover in Addis-Abeba and decided to do a free tour to get to discover the city. The problem is that once you leave the hotel, your wifi is off and cannot communicate by whatsapp any more... This is why we got lost trying to reach the meeting point. We asked for help at a bank and a very kind person shared his hotspot with us and Reta came to look for us within 10 minutes. On top of this, he adapted the tour for us (we were only 2 in the group), as I had a sprained toe and a huge blister, and couldn't walk fast at all. The tour was much longer (3 extra hours) so we could see many things, send poscards from the Post Office, have traditional food and coffee, do some shooping at "Mercato"... It was great, as I could learn a lot and enjoy Addis. I felt very lucky to have him as our guide and I am will definitely contact him again if I go back to Ethiopia one day. I can only say THANKS, RETA!!

Brilliant tour, felt like we saw the real local route around Adis. Detailed information and great communication. Loved it!

What an amazing guide Kenaw is! It was just me on the tour and he showed me around as much as possible. I loved his enthusiasm for catering to tourists. I wish him the best for the future.

Reta showed good knowledge of Addis Ababa and Ethopian culture and history and conducted us on a very interesting tour of the city.

Kenaw was a great, friendly and considerate guide. The tour with him was very interesting and gave us great insights!

The tour was great: the coffee tasting, the restaurant with local food, the market visit, all of it! We would not be able to see those places on our own. If you are looking for a truly authentic experience, I definitely recommend taking this tour!

My day touring with Reta was wonderful. We went to several places including Entoto Mountain, an amazing traditional Ethiopian dance and music performance, and a few others in between. He was very flexible with the itinerary and we stopped a few times to see something along the way and so I could take pictures. Reta is professional, kind, accommodating, knowledgable, and an overall remarkable young man! If you're considering doing a tour with Reta you won't be disappointed. I highly recommend him! And I predict you'll have a new friend in Addis when the tour is over! 😊

My tour with Kenaw was really great! We visited the crazy and sprawling Merkato Market among several other stops. Kenaw is professional, friendly, punctual, kind, and a very knowledgable guide. I highly recommend going out to explore Addis with Kenaw...you won't be disapointed.

에티오피아 항공으로 아디스아바바 스탑오버 하시는 분들께 강추드립니다.

Kenaw is a very kind and attentiv person! He show as interesting ponits in the city. Ande the tour around the market was cool! Nice to meet him in Addis!

With a last minute day layover in Addis due to a missed connecting flight, I hadn’t done any research on the country. I booked a very last minute tour with Kenaw who was responsive & helpful in working out the best itinerary for me. As a solo female traveller, I felt completely safe & well looked after. The tour was so informative, with lots of cultural & historic context provided. Given his GuruWalk tours make up a significant portion of his income, Kenaw is extremely punctual & professional, but also intentional & thoughtful to ensure his guests have the best possible time. Highly recommend.

Great walking tour with Kena, i can recommand to do this tour in Addis.

The walk was really nice. Kenaw was always happy do talk about the facts and details about the sight we were visiting. He was easy to communicate with and happy to adapt the tour to our wishes. Especially the local coffee experience was nice! Would always recommend him as a guide!!

Kenaw brought us to local coffee shops and we went to a local handicraft shop to support the work of local artisans! It was a great experience!! He is also very knowledgeable and I learnt a lot about Ethiopia in the morning with him!

I had a great time with Kenaw during my layover in Addis Ababa. He has a passion for history and thoroughly explained all the monuments and buildings we saw. I loved the view we got of the city from the mountains in the north, and he did a great job answering my questions. This tour provided a good list of things to see if I’m ever back in Ethiopia. If you’re also only in town for an extended layover, I highly recommend exploring the city with Kenaw.

EXCELLENT TOUR GUIDE, PASSIONATE ABOUT HIS WORK, GOES BEYOND EXPECTATIONS, TOP!

ガイドさんは写真を見て軽い感じの若者かと思いましたが、知的で落ち着いたガイドさんでした。彼の車で案内してくれました。まずは元の駅舎行って、使われていた車両を見て、建物内にあるTomoca coffee でコーヒーを飲みました。それから周囲を散策し、メルカト市場へ行きました。（市場は不穏な感じはしませんでしたがガイドがいないと迷うし外国人は注目されてしまうと思います）ある建物の上階に行き、そこから市場を眺め、地元プライスのインジェラを食べました。クセのないインジェラで、私は卵インジェラにしましたが美味しかったです。ちょうどその日は改築のため国立博物館は閉鎖していて、民俗学博物館を案内してくれました。想像とはちょっと違いましたが興味深かったです。とても満足です、ありがとう、Kenaw😉👍️🎶

The tour with Getachew was really fun! He showed me Addis Ababa in a very authentic way and I had the chance to see local places where I have learned a lot about the culture and the life of the people from Addis Ababa! He knew a lot about the city and the country. I really enjoyed the tour 🙂
