Free walking tours in Addis Ababa

Thank you so much Reta for this fantastic tour around Addis. It was fun to go through the places where only locals go and to understand more about the culture. The coffee stop was a great touch, and very interesting to see the real market. I wouldn’t have been able to do that myself.

Had an amazing time with Reta who showed me so much of the city over many hours, markers, cityscapes, history, museum and even gave amazing tips for the rest of my time in Addis. It’s been a gift to meet this guide who within minutes became a friend and ambassador for his great country.

I had a nice tour with Reta, we went to the merkato, saw how traditional coffee is made and walked around an older part of town

The tour was a good one. Very authentic and our guide was very good. I recommend 👌

Reta è stato molto professionale e fa fare un giro molto lungo e completo. Serve parlare inglese e arrangiarsi un po. Molto simpatico.

A very different experience that most walking tours. Really felt immersed with locals and the culture. Highly recommend when you're in Addis.

Our tour guide reta great! We went to the market a,traditional coffee shops, and tried local foods and tea would definitely recommend 10/10!

Quite an experience visiting Addis Mekato with Reta! First of all, he was very flexible with starting time and meeting point. He came to meet us at the hotel and got us on a taxi to explore the market. It’s an intense and happening place and we were glad he brought his friend to help with my group of 4 seniors. Reta is personal, fun, and professional! We were glad we took this tour with him and highly recommend Reta anyone who is keen on market!

Very friendly guide. We saw cool places that we would never find on our own. Highly recommended.

Bellissimo giro con Reta, molto simpatico e parla un ottimo inglese!

Had an amazing time with Reta visiting Addis abeba 100 % perfect, thanks!!!!

We saw a wide range of neighborhoods, markets, historic sites, and everyday local life. It gave us a much better feel for Addis beyond the main attractions. Our guide was knowledgeable and open about the history and culture, which made everything more meaningful. Absolutely worth it.

The tour was amazing, very flexible to stop or visit the places that you want to see and he answer and explain all your curiosities about the city and the country in general. Highly recommended:)

RETA kos acompaño muy bien en la vista a la ciudad y el Merkato. Lo recomiendo.

Nice young man took me alone on the tour and it was exceeded all expectations to include a combination of taxi, car hailing and walking for more than 4 hours ! I was very much educated and enlightened by Getachew. He also helped me to get a local simm card just for good measure ! Highly recommended tour with this guru

Great tour guide Reta was very funny and he told good history. Really enjoyed the tour thanks Reta.

He is great, super punctual and makes you feel very safe and personalises the tour if needed. I just wish he explained more about the history of the city of Ethiopia or when we were in the coffee ceremony (which he takes you to a great place ). I wish he explained more about the ritual itself and the tradition.

I had a layover in Addis and spent the day with Getachew. He was an amazing guide and had so much information to share. Highly recommended!

Excellent walking tour! We visited the National Museum, Entoto, and Merkato. Getachew was very nice, helpful and well-prepared. I learned so much about the city's history and culture!

Getachew was easy to communicate with and gave us a great tour of Addis. It felt like walking with a friend!

Reta was great! He was friendly, caring, aware, genuine and informative. We had coffee, visited the piazza and the Mercato. Highly recommend booking with Reta. Note you will need some money for taxi from mall to piazza and back, meeting point was a little out of the centre. Thank you Reta and good luck - hope you get to Arsenal

Wir haben sehr viele lokale Orte mit dem Guide besucht. Es war sehr interessant

Reta was knowledgeable and thorough. He was our guide and protector! He helped us with our purchases and kept us safe the entire time. He even accompanied us back to our hotel in the taxi. Great service!

Awesome guide. He did his job even when others in the group had their own agenda. He did not force anyone to purchase anything, but helped attendees to make purchases by negotiating with vendors. He is an excellent guide.

Muy amable el guía
