This was our fourth tour with Aman Tours and they didn´t dissapoint us. Adadi Maryam and Tiya are incredible places to visit. The road is a little dusty and bumpy but the destination deserves it. Be prepare, wear confortable shoes and an extra pair of socks could be useful (as you have to take out your shoes at the church). Bring some cash for tipping, a local guide will introduce you Tiya. Lunch was included at a really nice restaurant, an excellent plate of local food (veggie because it was fasting day). Ethiopian landscapes during the car travel are amazing!
Great day out!

I only had a one day stopover in Ethiopia and wanted to make a little more out of it, so I decided book a day trip to Tiya and Adadi Mariam. I had a great day out with guide Shasha and driver Sisik. The picked me up on time, knew a lot about the sites and had answers to all my quirky questions about history and current affairs. Since it was market day in Adadi (Sunday), we also spent some time looking around the market too, still we made it back to Addis in time. Thank you for a great day out!
Excellent Tour and Excellent Company

I booked this tour, and everything went as planned. The guide and driver arrived at my hotel on time, and they were both very helpful and knowledgeable about the sites. In addition, the guides were very friendly and always willing to help out in any way they could. This is probably one of the best companies that I have done tours with, and I highly recommend them. Everything was organized, professional, and could not have been better. Thank you so much!
