5.00I chose to go with Daily Addis Tours given the great feedback I had read on here. They did not disappoint with the half day tour. With a short stay in Addis, we wanted to experience many of the sights and feel like we received a comprehensive tour without the being rushed. Our guide Yonas, and driver Adisu made that possible. Their professionalism, historical knowledge, light personalities and overall candor added to a wonderful excursion for my mother & myself as we took in the sights, sounds, and tastes of Addis Ababa
