EXCELLENT Based on 24 reviews Posted on RamalakaVerified Mulu can provide you with some unforgettable experiences that Ethiopia has to offer. Great operation. Mulugeta (Mulu) seamlessly handled my air travel and lodging accommodations at nice places with reduced rates. He has an impressive breadth of knowledge of the various regions, ethnic groups, culture, food, music and more. Highly recommend using him and his team for making this trip and my last one providing unforgettable experiences that Ethiopia has to offer.Posted on David SVerified Thoroughly recommend Had a great time with Ethiopian Photography Tours. Our guide was Mulugeta, he couldn't have been more helpful and was more than happy to share his knowledge on the best places to visit and on camera settings in bright conditions. Will definitely visit again and arrange further tours. Many thanks.Posted on Juliet4701Verified Wonderful weekend city tour of Addis Ababa! I had a weekend stopover in Addis Ababa and was recommended Mulugeta as a guide by a friend. He gave me a whirlwind tour of the sites I wanted to see - the Trinity Cathedral, Entoto Maryam Church, the Ethnography museum at Addis Ababa University, Meskel Square, the Red Terror museum and more. He also helped me find places where my parents worked in Addis in the 1960s! He had a wonderful idea to take me to an Orthodox mass on St. Mary's Day at the Entoto Maryam Church which was a unique and memorable experience. I highly recommend Mulie for a weekend tour of the city and surroundings.Posted on JBVerified Best Photography Guide and Fixer I have travelled with Mulie across Ethiopia on three occasions, and each experience has been exceptional. As a photography guide and fixer, he is undoubtedly the best in Ethiopia. His ability to organise comprehensive itineraries at short notice while managing every detail seamlessly is truly commendable. Reliable, professional, and highly knowledgeable, he is someone you can trust completely. Over the years, Mulie has not only been an outstanding guide but has also become a valued friend.Posted on Mark HVerified Simply exceptional. Every country should have a resource like this. Seamless execution from planning, to arrival, activity during the trip and departure. When logistical challenges arose, we pivoted and didn't miss a beat. You know you made the right choice when reading the Ethiopian Airlines magazine on your flight and it features Mulu, the owner of Ethiopian Photography Tours and my guide for the trip. You can't do better than local knowledge (and language skills) when planning and executing a trip and when interacting with locals. The trip was like travelling with friends, friends you liked throughout the trip. Even after my return, Mulu checked in with me to ensure my travel home was uneventful. If a resource this knowledgeable, experienced, flexible and friendly was available in every country, my trip planning and travel experience would be a lot smoother and enjoyable. I cannot recommend Mulu enough.Posted on Vacation57153386705Verified Immersion in real Ethiopia Amazing guide and authentic taste of Addis Ababa! We had a fantastic time exploring Addis Ababa with Mule, who made our visit both enjoyable and enriching at the same time. He was knowledgeable about the history and culture of the city and tailored the experience perfectly to our interests. One of the highlights of our time together was a dinner at a traditional restaurant where we were able to try local dishes such as tibs and injera. The evening was further enhanced by the opportunity to listen to Ethiopian music and watch traditional dancing. It was a vibrant and lively experience that gave us a deeper appreciation of the local culture. Mule's warmth and enthusiasm made us feel at home in Addis Ababa. If you're visiting Addis Ababa or anywhere else and want an authentic experience with a guide who cares, we highly recommend him!Posted on Elena NVerified Fantastic guide and unforgettable experience in Lalibela! We were privileged to spend 3 days in Lalibela with the amazing Abebe, who made our visit truly special. His deep knowledge of the ancient churches and the rich history behind them brought the sites to life in a way we will never forget. Every detail he shared made the experience more meaningful and his passion for the history and culture of Lalibela was very engaging. We tried also homemade tej, a traditional honey wine, which was a unique and delightful experience. One of the most special experiences of our trip was visiting a local home where we were warmly welcomed and treated to a traditional coffee ceremony. This intimate experience gave us a glimpse into the daily lives of the locals, and the coffee was absolutely delicious! Abebe helped to facilitate this connection, adding a personal touch to our trip that we greatly enjoyed. Abebe is a very kind and patient person, and he has made our visit to Lalibela an amazing and memorable one! If you're planning a trip to Lalibela, we highly recommend having him as your guide. He truly made our visit unforgettable!Posted on Darnell SVerified Lalibela and Addis Mulugeta helped me navigate Ethiopia with expert precision! I went on a two-day tour with Abebe in Lalibela and one-day tour with Mulugeta in Addis Ababa. In Lalibela, I visited several churches, markets, and even hiked a mountain! In Addis, I explored the city visiting premier clubs amd restaurants. I got a taste for authentic Ethiopian cuisine I wish I could have back home in the states. It was a great experience to have local guidance to maximize my short time. I can't wait for my next trip in Ethiopia with Mulugeta!Posted on Dai BVerified Addis Ababa and Lalibela I went on a two-day tour with Mulie who showed me around the city of Addis Ababa. He custom-made an itinerary for me according to my interests in commerce and religion. We talked to quite a few merchants in the Merkato with Mulie’s help as I was so furious about the trade with Asia. We also attended a mass together to celebrate the Savior of the World which was absolutely impressive. Mulie helped me find another guide in Lalibela for my next stop. Abebe (+251 91 131 0828) in Lalibela was one of nicest people I met in Ethiopia. He’s a Lalibela local who knows every corner of the city. We went to the Saturday market and Sunday masses. I highly recommend going on the weekend with Abebe.Posted on Voyage203739Verified Wonderful tours of Addis Ababa Mulugeta was a superb guide- knowledgeable, helpful and has an excellent photographer’s eye. Due to time constraints we were only able to tour sites in Addis but even in the short time we were able to see a wide range of cultural and historical sites , such as the National Museum, Gulele, as well as the market (amazing) and also a wonderful restaurant where we enjoyed the delicious local cuisine as well as traditional dances from across the country. At all times Mulie was attentive, knowledgeable and showed us the authentic Addis. I would highly recommend these tours and hope to go back soon.
