When I was planning my first visit to Ethiopia, I contact Mr.Tess(Manager of Simen Land Tours just by chance, but from our first contacts by email I realized that he was a very nice person and real professional. Since then I have been twice in the incredible country, and have always felt safe, in the hands of knowledgeable people and among friends: I very much look forward to visiting Ethiopia as many times as life would allow me.
