  Our latest tour news  

​

We are at last feeling positive and optimistic about

tourism in Ethiopia!

​

We have ourselves travelled widely in the country during the last many months,

experiencing the warmest of welcomes from the Ethiopian people, as always.

​

We attended the Timkat festival in Lalibela last January, with thousands of Ethiopians from all over the country celebrating their very special Epiphany period. And soon after that we had an enjoyable small-group

'Ancient, Historic Ethiopia' tour with enthusiastic guests. 

​

In July, we had a very enjoyable 'Tribes, Mountains and Caves' tour in southern Ethiopia and in November we ourselves spent a sunny and peaceful two weeks in Lalibela with no signs of trouble.  Despite remaining tensions in the northern Amhara region, we are very much looking forward to the coming months and expect to see a real recovery in the tourism sector, in Ethiopia as in many places across the world. 

​

As you may already know, we had our first hugely exciting 'Kenyan Experience' last November, complete with its three-day Maasai Mara big game safari as its climax. We have just completed our second such tour, again with great enjoyment from all concerned. In 2025, we are putting the tour about six weeks earlier than before, at the beginning of October, and we hope that change will allow other people to join us at last.

​​

This last August we spent a whole month in the north of the wonderful island of Madagascar, planning and exploring, ready for our new tour there.

We are now referring to our southern tour as

'Madagascan Odyssey - the magical southern route'

while our brand-new tour will become

'Magnificent Madagascar - the colourful north of the island'.

Both these tours are now in our summer calendar for 2025,

and we shall be very excited to travel with a new set of guests on one or other of these colourful and unmissable tours.

​

Dates are in place for all of our upcoming 2025 group tours and you can see the basic details below here. We would invite you to sign up as soon as you can.

We always watch and assess the situation in all areas as regards safety and security, and any tour deposits we may ask of you will always be totally refundable until confirmation is given for each tour.

​

Don't forget that we can run any tour at any time if you prefer to travel either alone, as a couple, or as a group of friends or associates. Just get in touch with us via the form at the bottom of each page to discuss your requirements. 

​
