We did enjoy Lalibela and Omo valley very much. Both guides, Mr. Ermi & Mr. Achenef are very professional and knowledgeable. The driver, Mr. Danni, is also a perfect driver

A trip of a lifetime, you’ll make memories you will forever look back on. I was hesitant to book the tour as I’m solo traveling as a female but am so glad I did! I feel you haven’t experienced Ethiopia if you miss out on this! Minalu dealt with all my queries prior to booking, I had the most amazing guide Solomon and driver Fahmi (who not only drove us but was also our dancer with the best music for the road trip), they were both the kindest souls I’ve met this whole trip, I felt so safe & cared for. So incredibly lucky to have met them! I would 100% recommend this company, they are reliable, local to the tribes and have exceptional customer service. What you see on your visit will be very humbling and impactful. Tip-bring as much cash as you may want to donate, also as offerings to the tribes purchase chocolates, soap, footballs, stationery for school, umbrellas for the heat, gear to help them with their day to day life (farming, fishing etc). What may seem small/insignificant to you makes the world of difference and you will see their immense gratitude with even a soap bar! You will meet many children without any shoes, if you’re lucky to visit on a market day, if you wanted to you could buy them slippers there! Thank you for one of the most memorable experiences of my life, Solomon informed me of how there are projects to introduce clean water to some of the deprived villages, in case anyone has any interest to find out more about that.

Our experience with Top Omo Valley Tours was truly unforgettable and even better than we expected. From the very beginning, Minalu, the owner, showed excellent communication skills. Before the trip, he always replied quickly, was very patient, and paid attention to every detail. He helped us create an itinerary that perfectly matched our interests. During the trip, he continued to check that everything was going well, which made us feel safe and relaxed. The journey through the main attractions of Lalibela was amazing. We visited several beautiful places, including the 11 rock-hewn churches and Asheton Maryam, and we were able to respectfully learn about the local culture. Each place was different and special, with interesting traditions and meaningful encounters with people. The guides and drivers were also excellent. They were professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. They made every day easy and enjoyable, always ready to help and answer our questions. One of the best parts of the trip was taking photos of colorful markets, stunning views, and authentic cultural moments that we will always remember. Overall, Top Omo Valley Tours gave us a fantastic experience. Minalu and his team did an outstanding job, both in planning and during the trip. I strongly recommend them to anyone who wants to visit Lalibela in a well-organized and meaningful way.

I had an amazing experience exploring the Omo Valley. We visited several tribes including the Mursi, Karo, Hamer, and Banna, and also spent time in Konso. The itinerary was very well organized, with stays in Jinka and Turmi in really nice lodges throughout the trip. The company owner, Minalu, was excellent—always quick to respond, answered all my questions, and was very flexible in adjusting the trip to my preferences. Everything felt personalized and smooth from start to finish. Our driver, Fahmi, was not only skilled but also very funny, which made the long drives much more enjoyable. My guide, Sergjo, was outstanding—extremely knowledgeable, great storyteller, and spoke perfect English. He explained everything in a clear and engaging way, which really enriched the whole experience. Overall, a fantastic trip with a great team. Highly recommended if you want to explore the Omo Valley in a well-organized and authentic way.

We chose the 6-night tour from Jinka to Arba Minch. Excellent communication with Minalu who has well adapted the program to our needs, following us thoughtfully even during the journey. We had Fami as a good driver who behaved well on the bumpy roads full of obstacles, and Sergio as a good guide who with his creative mind helped us take beautiful photographs. 3 great people. We will keep a beautiful memory of this anthropological journey to discover the tribes of the Omo Valley. Thanks for everything Mario and Federico

Fantastic time! This tour company and all its employees are so reliable, trustworthy, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. We saw 2 young men cow jump from the Hamar tribe! Loved the hair styles of the Hamar women & the lip plates of the Mursi women. Overall, we would rate this company A++++!

We joined a 3-day Omo Valley tour in November. The owner, Minalu, was extremely responsive. He patiently answered all our questions and provided detailed explanations before the trip. We booked our own flights, but the airport was unexpectedly shut down and our flight was canceled during our trip. Although this was not his responsibility, Minalu went above and beyond to help us rebook flights, arrange transportation, and get us to another airport. Thanks to his quick action, our trip was not delayed at all, and we had a wonderful experience!

Thank you Minalu and Top Omo Valley for organising a once in a lifetime family journey for us!!! We reached out to Minalu a couple months before our trip in November 2025, and the communication was very efficient and quick. Minalu was always supportive and flexible. He even changed a couple of hotels for us upon our request! He was always available and easy to reach, also during our trip through Omo Valley. Only a few days before our trip was supposed to start in Jinka, the flights got cancelled and the airline never let us know. It was Minalu who contacted us and sent us a revised itinerary straight away. He made the changes feel easy and not such a big deal. We really appreciated his flexibility and adaptability. During our 8 day tour through the Omo Valley we were able to visit 9 different tribes ( Dorze, Konso, Arbore, Hamer, Karo, Dassanech, Nyangatom, Banna and Mursi). It was fascinating and an absolute privilege to be able to get to know how the Ethiopian tribes live and continue with their traditions till this day. We based ourselves in Turmi for three nighs and did quite a bit of driving from there. The roads can feel quite heavy sometimes as they are a mix of concrete and unpaved. But our careful driver Dani, made us feel safe every second. The car was always clean and ready for us, he would even undust our suitcases after dirty roads! Our most cherished experience was eating a goat with the Hamer Tribe one evening. Our guide knew we were always after the most authentic experiences, so he organised to buy a goat from a Hamer Tribe and they cooked it in the woodfire for us. It was truly special and a moment we will never, ever, forget. They were also very accomodating and respectful of our wishes - like eating at local restaurants instead of hotels. We had the best Tibs of our whole Ethiopian trip thanks to Solomon, the coordinator. I highly recommend discovering the Omo Valley with Top Omo Valley Tours. They are locals and know their land and its people like no other. Once again, thank you!!!!!
