Well organized, i liked the initiative to change the rescheduling of Blue Nile to the morning due to the rainfall expected; but no time left to visit the island on Lake Tana due to lunch place inconvenience (not the tour organization’s fault; but a more result oriented approach is necessary); and the local market as it was already very late when we finished touring the lake. All in all, the price is significantly high but the comfort and attention to the needs are fine. No complimentary tea or coffee as mentioned on the program. Some details missing regarding information given; but it was enjoyable all in all.
