The Collection
Every journey we run
Filter by the kind of travelling you want to do. Any of these can be lengthened, shortened or combined.
How We Work
What is true of every journey on this page
Locally owned, locally guided
An Addis-based team of designers, scholar-guides and drivers who have worked together for years — not a franchise operating at a distance.
Designed, never packaged
Every itinerary is drawn from scratch around your pace, interests and appetite for altitude. Nothing on this site is fixed.
Access that cannot be booked online
Curators, priests, archaeologists and artisans who open doors at the hours when no one else is there.
Present before, during and after
One named designer from first enquiry to final departure, with a 24-hour support line for the whole of your journey.
Planning Your Journey
Tour questions, answered plainly
Are these fixed group departures?
No. Our journeys are private and designed around the people travelling together. The routes on this page are starting points, not fixed departures.
Can I customize one of these tours?
Yes. We can adjust the pace, length, accommodation, activities and route around your dates, interests and comfort with road time or altitude.
Can two itineraries be combined?
Yes. Many guests combine parts of two routes. Tell us which places matter most and we will redraw them as one practical journey.
What is included in the price?
Each tour page lists its usual inclusions and exclusions. Your final proposal confirms the exact accommodation, transport, guiding, meals, flights and entrance fees covered by the quote.
How large are the tour groups?
Journeys are private, with the published routes designed for parties of up to ten guests. The exact suitable group size is shown on each tour page.
What happens after I enquire?
An Addis-based designer normally replies within 24 hours with questions and a first route. We revise it with you, and no deposit is taken until the itinerary reads right.
