Highlights
First, visit the National Museum of Ethiopia, which contains some of the best and most diverse exhibitions. The archeological exhibitions include Lucy (Dinkinesh, 'beautiful' in the local vernacular), a 3.5 million-year-old Australopithecus Afarensis hominoid woman. In 1974, Lucy's fossil revealed that our ancestors walked 2.5 million years earlier than imagined, rewriting our genealogy. The National Museum features several exquisite pre-Axumite artifacts. Next, visit St. George's Cathedral. Near the northern end of Churchill Road. The Cathedral, erected in 1896 in the usual octagonal shape to honor Ethiopia's victory over the Italians in the Battle of Adwa, has Afewerk Tekle's stained-glass windows from the Africa Hall. Drive to Entoto to explore Shiromeda market, one of the main Ethiopian traditional clothing markets. Continue driving to the peak to see Mount Entoto's stunning city view. Final stop. Stop at Tomoka Coffee! Excellent city coffee. Tour Ends

5Olinol Guide Review
The experience was amazing!! The insight provided by Olinol was fantastic!!… there were no additional hidden admission fees and he made sure to adjust his style based off of my preferences. We travelled around Addis Ababa for nearly the entire day, but he also went above and beyond to provide me with customized places for my entire 4-day trip… I highly recommend 💯💯💯

5Insightful, safe, and memorable Addis Ababa tour
I had an amazing time on my Addis Ababa tour, and a huge part of that was thanks to our tour guide, Abe, and our driver, Abreham. From the very beginning Abe was friendly, professional, and genuinely passionate about his city. His knowledge of Addis Ababa’s history, culture, and daily life was impressive, and he explained everything in a clear, engaging way that made each stop even more meaningful. Abreham was an excellent driver and made the whole day feel safe, smooth, and well organised. Navigating the busy streets of Addis is no small task, but he did it with calm confidence and a great attitude. He was always punctual, helpful, and welcoming, which really added to the overall experience. Abe went out of his way to make sure everyone felt comfortable and included. He was always happy to answer questions, share local insights, and adapt the tour to our interests. Whether we were visiting historical sites, exploring neighbourhoods, or trying local food, he made the experience feel authentic and personal rather than rushed or scripted. What really stood out was Abe’s enthusiasm and pride in Ethiopia, supported perfectly by Abreham’s professionalism and care. I left feeling like I had not only seen Addis Ababa, but actually understood it better. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city, and especially recommend asking for Abe and Abreham. They truly made the experience unforgettable.

About Addis Ababa
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia's capital, stands high on a plateau among eucalyptus-covered hills, with museums, markets, churches and African Union offices.
At around 2,400 metres, Addis Ababa is one of the highest capitals in the world, laid out on the slopes of the Entoto hills. The National Museum of Ethiopia tells the story of human origins through Lucy, a 3.2-million-year-old partial skeleton found in the country in 1974, while the Ethnological Museum is housed in a former imperial palace. Holy Trinity Cathedral and Saint George Cathedral are important churches, and Meskel Square hosts large gatherings.
