The best of Ethiopia - We did thorough research before booking with this company, and true to what many other reviewers said, Mickey and his team proved to be exceptionally reliable. Communication was prompt and professional, and Mickey even went the extra mile to help us find accommodation in Addis Ababa—something that wasn’t part of the tour package. When I accidentally transferred double the deposit, Mickey refunded the extra amount immediately, which spoke volumes about his honesty and integrity. We also had the pleasure of meeting him in person, and he was as warm and friendly.
On the tour itself, our guide Yohannes was professional, attentive, and genuinely kind. We felt safe and well cared for throughout the journey. On the first day, our vehicle broke down in the middle of nowhere, but assistance arrived surprisingly quickly, turning what could have been a stressful situation into part of the adventure. Dallol was hot but Yohannes really made sure we are well and safe. He even had to get extra watet for us and we were so grateful to him.
The rest of the trip was incredible—Danakil is truly breathtaking. The food was good, the arrangements were smooth, and sleeping under the stars was a magical experience.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mickey, Yohannes, and his team to my family and friends planning a trip to Ethiopia.

An Outstanding Tour Guide – and a Great Driver!” - Our tour guide Kbrom was absolutely fantastic! From the very beginning, he impressed us with his friendly manner and extensive knowledge. He made the tour not only informative but also very entertaining. What stood out in particular was how caring and empathetic he was, especially towards my 82-year-old colleague. He always made sure she was comfortable and included.
We also had an excellent driver who navigated every route safely and smoothly. His calm and professional manner made the journeys very pleasant and relaxing. Together, they made this trip an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended! Thank you Kbrom

Don’t miss a trip to Danakil! - We booked a tour to Danakil with this company and never regretted because everything was very well organised from meeting in the airport until bringing you back to the airport. We had 2 nights sleeping under the sky;) saw colourful Dallol and were very lucky to see and stand close to an open chimney of volcano Erta Ale, seeing boiling lava, because it has opened just a week before our arrival. Yes, the road during the trip is not easy and bumpy very often but our driver Efram was very experienced and we never had any problems. We also never had any problems with the food because breakfast/lunch/dinner were well organised in the campsite, or just during our stops, made by local tribes, and I must say it was very good, even without meat (there are no fridges therefore the food will be always fresh). Both our driver and a guide were speaking a very good English.
The only advice I could give to travellers is to take some warm jacket/trousers only for the night at the volcano, the ground there is warm but the wind was very strong and cold, even with blankets.
I 100% recommend you not to miss this tour once you are in Ethiopia, it definitely worth it. At the end how many people can say they have been in the hottest place on the earth?;)

Highly recommend and beyond expectation - Chris and I have just finished a 16 day tour with Danakil Depression tours. We could not fault the way everything came together. Airport pickups were on time and even when some of our flights were delayed by up two hours the guide was still waiting! Accommodation was great. The drivers and guides throughout were courteous and always obliging. Great sense of humor with lots of laughs! Nothing was ever a problem. It was also obvious that they enjoyed what were they doing and had exceptional knowledge.
Mickey contacted the guides during our trip just to make sure all was well. His attention to detail was excellent. Would have no hesitation in recommending his company.
We had a fantastic time with some fantastic experiences. I am unable to download some photos yet but will endeavor to later.

Highlights include the stunning salt flats of Lake Asale at sunset and the vibrant, mineral-rich hot springs of Dallol, showcasing surreal formations and colors that evoke an alien landscape. The trek to Erta Ale culminates in an encounter with molten lava, glowing vividly under the night sky, while camping beneath the stars immerses adventurers in the raw essence of this untamed wilderness.Mickey the owner of the company he is very sensitive for his clients hospitality ,responsible and well organized through the tour.

Danakil 2 Nights 3 Day Tour - I've been on the tour for a long time.
Mickey, our guide, keeps in touch on WhatsApp
They were responsive and trusted.
The response during the trouble was good.
Travel time is long, but the road has been improved
It wasn't that harsh.
I heard it was hot, but it was windy and cold at night
In some cases, measures may be needed.
It was great to see the earth alive.

A once in a lifetime experience, not to be missed - Prepare to be amazed by one of the most stunning Places on Earth! The tour is very well organized, although not for the weak ones: you’ll sleep under the stars, travel off-road for hours, and won’t have access to electricity or running water for 2.5 days.
But it’s all worth it; and the guides are knowledgeable, helpful, and very friendly.
