We had two wonderful and interesting weeks in Ethiopia. From the beginning of our contact I had a good feeling. Even it was a late for booking we have got all the bookings desired. The staff was always very polite and was taking care of all wishes or problems. In the background it was the owner of the company and some other helpful people. The most important person on such a round trip is your driver guide. We can not imagine a better one as Yacob who was driving carefully, organizing everything in an absolutely perfect way and first of all he is a wonderful person! He explained us a lot about Ethiopia, the people, the religion and life in his beautiful country. Beside him we had at all places very good and informed local guides, especially in Lalibela, one of the highlights in Ethiopia. We really recommend Senait Ethiopia Tours for planning and organizing your trip to Ethiopia!

We found Senait Ethiopia Tours through search on Internet and the recommendations of some friends who travelled there in 2014. We had travelled in many places around the world but for Ethiopia (and I assume more East African countries) you can't just rent a car and make your way. Senait gave us the best price and most important the best experience. Our driver Bekele made all our trip safe, replying all of our questions and always keeping an eye on us. The places we stayed were really nice (some more luxury, other closer to the nature) and even though we travelled a lot, we have the experience. We had a 6 days tour to the South (visiting the beautiful tribes and lakes) and another 3 days for the Coffee farms (also something we loved as we love coffee).
5* for all the team, as we urgently needed to find a place for some stomach issues we had, then again Bekele was there to drive us everywhere with patience and a smile. I would suggest them for sure and I wish to travel and learn more about this beautiful country.

Our experience with Senait tours was great - it was 5 of us, 3 adults and 2 kids. We reached out to the Managing Director, Taddese, who was very responsive from the initial request to use the company for our trip from Addis to Gondar and answered all of our follow up questions quickly. We let him know what hotel we wanted to stay at, as well as the places we wanted to visit - Senait took care of the hotel booking and provided a thorough itinerary for our trip. The only thing we had to book was our flights in and out of Gondar. It was very helpful to not have to worry about any of the coordinating of the trip itself, and all fees for the Gondar itinerary aside from tips and eating out were covered in the price of the trip we paid to Senait.
We were greeted at the airport by our driver Kidus, who was very friendly and a very good/safe driver. He drove us in a very nice, clean van for every part of the trip and was very knowledgeable about the area. The two main visits on our trip were to the Simien Mountain which was a day trip, and then another day we toured Faciles castle as well as a few other churches/destination points within Gondar.
We were very pleased with our experience with Senait tours, and would definitely recommend using them for any tours within Ethiopia.

My daughter and I had 6 days only in Ethiopia and Senait put together a great program for the two of us. Our trip was excellent because of the guides and drivers assigned to us who all showed great professionalism, flexibility and were enthusiastic to ensure we enjoyed their country. In particular our excellent guides included in Bahir Dar Mr Mas Zeleke, in Gondar Mr Sami, In Lalibela Mr Leul, in Axum Isek, and in Addis Mr Tikikil Tadesse and Walid.
Although we had an agreed program, a few times we asked to change the sites being visited or the order in which we would proceed. This posed no problem to any of our guides and their flexibility was very much appreciated by us. We had such a good time all of these guides and certainly learned a lot about Ethiopia and its history from them.
In Addis we had a very early flight to Bahir Dar. However, as my daughter was ill, she bought a new ticket to take a late afternoon flight. It turned out that by missing a sector of her Ethiopian Airlines ticket, the entire series of future flights was cancelled. Mr Tadesse and Mr Leul were right on to this problem and a visit to Ethiopian Airlines in Lalibela had everything sorted out very quickly. This extra care for our welfare was handled so well and as a result we continued our journey without hassle.
Highlights had to be Lake Tana and the monstery of Ura Kidane-Mihret with Mas, St George's Chapel at Lalibela with Mr Leul, the Gonder UNESCO sites with Mr Sami and having dinner with Isek in Axum.
Definitely would recommend Ethiopia as a travel destination and most definitely would recommend Senait Ethiopia Tours.

My partner and I had a terrific time with Senait Tours. I can not say enough wonderful things about our experience: not only is the company incredibly organized, communicative and professional, the individuals behind the company, including Taddese, Mr. Nagesh, and Tikikil are genuinely great human beings who make you feel like family and who - beyond the professional relationship - care about you having the best memories and seeing the best that Ethiopia has to offer. Taddese is well-connected with the Ministry of Tourism, which solidifies my trust in the company as a reputable one as a cultural ambassador. From Lalibela (a personal favorite) to Hawassa, Bahadir, Addis Ababa and beyond, our meals, accommodation, and transport were planned seamlessly. Our trip was postponed because of COVID by one year, but Taddese stayed in touch and was unwaveringly flexible as we adjusted dates, itineraries, and COVID requirements. They even added a PCR test gratuitously to make our trip smoother and organized the scheduling/pickup of the test and results on time. The local guides that were hired were true experts and were keen to answer any and all of our questions. Above all, like the leadership team, we felt that they not only cared about their “job” but about our happiness and enjoyment, which is what made this one of the greatest trips of my life!!! Highly highly recommended for all travel in Ethiopia.

I did a photography tour of Ethiopia with Jim Zuckerman photo tours for which Senait Tours provided the in country ground support. I could not have been happier, nor more impressed by the ease with which Senait and specifically our guide Gabriel managed the logistical challenges. Gabriel was one step ahead of us at all times making sure we had everything we needed and keeping everything perfectly on schedule. We even camped out in the remote Omo valley with such a level of comfort and luxury it was really glamping. Our drivers were also excellent (special shout out to Alex who kept us laughing with his stories and jokes and made the long drives fun). I would highly recommend Senait for their professionalism, competency and customer care. Well done!

I am very grateful I had the chance to visit this true African gem with Senait Ethiopia Tours. Our guide Gabriel made sure we didn't have a care in the world and was very informative and interested that we have the best time and feel welcomed. I now miss the local bread and bananas he always used to buy for us on the way :)
Ethiopia truly has everything: spectacular nature, history, a fascinating culture and great coffee to start your day with. What could you want more than also know your trip is in the best hands to handle? Our drivers were always punctual and careful, lunch restaurants and hotels were attentively chosen, our desires and needs were cared for.. In conclusion, I highly recommend booking them. I'm sure you will not be disappointed. Thank you for everything!

Ethiopia has been on my bucket list for years and choosing the right tour company was really important to me especially taking my Dad there for the first time. SENAIT Ethiopia Tours really understand customer service at the highest level. They looked after my Dad and I exceptionally well throughout the tour and each city we travelled we had a very knowledgeable and friendly local guide in Addis, Bahir Dar and Lalibela. We learnt so much and the beauty of Ethiopia should not be missed, we’ll be back to again in the future and would be happy to choose the same company again.

We experienced a few unforgettable days in the Semien mountain, the Tana lake, Gondar, the Dalow dessert and the Danakil depression. The organisations was excellent and on an exceptional level. Our guide Gabriel is a big professional. He took great care of us. It was an experience to remember for life.
