Begin your experience with a convenient hotel pickup before heading to the River Side Park, one of Addis Ababa’s newest and most beautiful public spaces. Walk along landscaped trails, admire modern bridges and art installations, and enjoy the relaxing atmosphere along the river.

Continue to a lively local market, where your guide introduces you to Ethiopian spices, artisanal products, seasonal fruits, and traditional snacks. You’ll have time to shop, taste, and interact with friendly local vendors.

Next, enjoy a delicious Ethiopian food tasting—from fasting (vegetarian) dishes like shiro, misir wot, and gomen to non-vegetarian favorites such as tibs and doro wot. Your guide explains how the dishes are prepared and their cultural significance.

You will then be welcomed into a home or local setting for a traditional Ethiopian coffee ceremony, where green beans are roasted, ground, and brewed fresh in front of you. Learn the history and spiritual meaning behind Ethiopia’s world-famous coffee heritage.

The journey continues as you drive toward the countryside hills surrounding Addis Ababa, offering sweeping views of the city skyline, fresh air, and scenic landscapes. Short stops allow for photos and time to admire the natural beauty. Your tour ends with a comfortable drop-off at your hotel.
