Kanu is a great guide who is very knowledgeable and kind. He has a very good sense of humour too! Be also helped us out with other things around Lalibela. All in all, great guy!

Thanks to Kanu and Joseph, my visit to La Libera was very enjoyable. Joseph was very experienced, knowledgeable, friendly and caring, and helped me solve many problems. While visiting Libera Cathedral, he would tell me the origin and history of each church, as well as the different histories between churches. Not only that, he also knew the best photo location and angle, and I took great photos. After the tour, Joseph also told me where to buy cheap and great coffee, and took me to taste local fruits and Ingra. It was a really great travel experience. you can contact them by these directly, Kanu and Joseph ayele.wasihun93@gmail.com +251912636910

What a wonderful tour! It was an amazing experience, thanks to Wisehun and Ephraim. The site is quite large, and their knowledge of the area and its history was remarkable. The story of some Christian People who tried to recreate a new Jerusalem after the Muslims invasion, is endearing. I am 71yo and I wouldn't have been able to discover this place without the help of Wisehun and Ephraim.

I was fortunate to have Joseph all to myself before the tourist rush came again. His knowledge, explanations, kindness and generosity are second to none, which I am eternally grateful for. I would recommend him to anyone thinking of doing this tour as a solo traveller or in a group ( he seems the sort who can tend to many people all at once too). He never rushed me, offered and suggested the best places to take photos which is essential for a solo traveller, and we spent a good while inside the churches to take in the different services. Everything was perfect, and I hope we can cross paths again one day.

We had a 14 day trip in Ethiopia, mainly to visit Omo Valley and Dallol. We enjoyed the trip. Kanu was great, car optimal, distances long to drive, but educational and inspiring. Selection of lodges good, food something new for us, but great. If you go to Afrika, this is a fine combination of adventure not to touristic vacation. We would highly recommended Access Eco Trekking and Kanu as a guide and we would definitely use them again should we back in Ethiopia. Igor & Romana

Ethiopia was almost an unknown country for me, so two weeks of traveling with the local agency Access Eco Trekking Tours has given me a unique opportunity to sink into the rich Ethiopian history, visit amazing archaeological places and cultural monuments (many of which are UNESCO World Heritage), feel different natural landscapes from Danakil Depression to the Simien Mountains, taste excellent food, enjoy music, dance ... and meet heartful people! I would like to thank Mr. Kanu and all the guides and drivers who have contributed to my unforgettable travel experience as they shared knowledge about their country, made me feel safe and gave me the opportunity for a joyful and funny trip with some special challenges such as climbing to the church in the mountain or feeding wild hyenas. I would highly recommend!

We were traveling this January with him and his team. They were great. Excellent knowledge about nature. Everything organized perfectly. Friendly and positive. I do recommend them.

Me and my friends spent the most beautiful 2weeks in Ethiopia. Started in Lalibela, Gondar, Simien montains, Axsum, Gheralta,Mekele,depression, Harar and Adis Ababa. People are werry friendly, we really felt safe. In everry town we had a local guide who explained everything about history and things that are important. I ejojed hiking in the mountains, swimming in the solt lake, some even fed hyenas... Beautiful country

I was in Lalibella for 36 hours and saw all of the major churches and one cave church in my time there. My guide Belay was excellent and he keep me busy all day. The town was beautiful and the day was a success. I wish I had one more day to go up the mountain for a little hiking. Definitely worth the trip

During my visit to Lalibela I made 1-day trip with Moges as a guide. The path and the view were amazing.

In January 2019 I did a 2-days hike in Lalibella with Moges. It was a fascinating experience and I enjoyed it a lot! On the first day I got picked up by Moges at the airport and immediately we felt familiar and the atmosphere was really nice. We then took a tuktuk to the beginning of the hiking trail and started to walk. We arrived in a little mountain village around 3-4 hours later and spent the night with a family in their house, had dinner together, music, and danced...and talked a lot. The people were really friendly and open and really tried to make me feel at home. It was a really fascinating cultural experience, not one of those touristy ones you might expect at all! Also the hiking itself was breathtaking, the views were really stunning and we also saw gelada baboons and could watch the local farmers working their fields...and even try the old machines. Moges was a really good guide, he knows a lot about the local life, animals and plants. Also on that special day we were lucky and could participate in the Timkat celebrations in the mountains. Hundreds of people dressed in white dancing on the mountain plain. I was speechless! We also met Moges friends and some of the priests and they even invited me to try dancing with them. On the second day we started the day with playing soccer with the kids (breathtaking indeed at this elevation), had breakfast and started to hike back down. Again the views were stunning!!! Unfortunately we only had 2 days together to enjoy the mountains but it felt much longer! Still now when I think back I cannot believe how lucky I was. It was one of the best experiences Ive had in my life. Thank you again Moges for making it so special! Im really happy that you finally started your own company and I wish you all the best with it!

Moges and his brother took me and my son on a 2-day trek into the mountains northwest of Lalibela. Thanks to his skill as a guide and his network of connections, we were able to have several unique experiences. When we commented on a farmer using a bull to plow fields, Moges asked the farmer if he would let us try plowing (more challenging than it seemed). We had a home stay in the mountains with a welcoming family who shared their traditions with us. Perhaps most fortunate, we got to see how a remote community celebrated Timkat—the Orthodox Church observance of Epiphany. Moges made these experiences possible for us and patiently answered our questions. I highly recommend trekking with him when you visit Lalibela.

Our guide Wasihun ‘Kanu’ is a great guy. A self-made man. Speaks English well end clear. He has a great knowledge about the history of Ethiopia, the nature (flowers, animals en plants), cultural habits and politics. Kanu stood out for his flexibility, honesty and his endearing naturalness. We (my father, sister and me) went to Addis, Bahir Dar, Simien, Gondar and Lalibela. Kanu is your perfect travel mate who understands how to make you feel safe, special and let you experience all the beauty and challenges of Ethiopia. Kanu become one big inspiration for us. We will never forget him!

Kanu was a wonderful guide for our time in Lalibela. He totally made the trip for us by taking an incredible amount of ownership over our entire weekend, not just the activities we paid for. Before we got there he helped us plan out the entire weekend to fit what we like: hike up to the monastery on Friday, market tour and cooking class Saturday, church tour Sunday. He then organized all of it and picked us up at our hotel for each activity. He was very nice and eager to answer all of our questions and tell us about Lalibelas's history and culture. Every activity he organized was engaging, fun, and interesting. We wanted to take coffee beans home to our family so he had his wife's mother roast some fresh for us (he said she's the coffee bean roasting expert). On our last night after we finished everything he even took us out to bars in the town for a "going away celebration." It really felt like having a personal guide for the entire weekend. Thanks Kanu!

I spent two weeks in Lalibela. Beautiful and at the same time, it makes you realize how poor many people are in the world. In these two weeks I have met so many nice people. Kanu not only went hiking with me, which alone was the biggest adventure of my life, but also brought me closer to the hidden treasures of Lalibela. He always guards that I can do such great things. And Joseph was very concerned about me. The friendliness and helpfulness is very important here. So, when you are in Lalibela, I urge you to contact Kanu.
