I just returned from a 12 day trip to Omo Valley and areas around. My friend and I did extensive research and contacted many tour companies and guides. I cannot say how happy I am that we chose Beka Girma as our tour guide.

From the very beginning, Beka was great at communicating with us. He was very responsive to our e-mails, texts, chats and will reply to our concerns right away.

Flexibility was a key factor and Beka was very easy to work with.

Beka made sure that my friend and I were safe and comfortable even at times when we had to “rough it”.

During an unexpected turn of the trip, Beka and his driver Abi were great in handling the situation.

South Etiopia and the local tribes are not areas that can be explored independently. It is important to have a reliable and knowledgeable guide. Beka was great and surpassed all expectations. During stops at larger towns he would take us out to explore nightlife in those places. Thanks for the beers!!

I would definitely recommend Beka Girma for any trip to Ethiopia. Should anyone have any questions I will be more than happy to communicate via e-mail: willyns@hotmail.com

Beka my friend, thank you very much for everything you did!

 Beka was a consummate professional in every way.  From the first itinerary he sent me, all of the email communications between us, greeting me at the airport and getting me back to the airport and everything in between. I greatly enjoyed my adventure to the rift and Omo valleys. Our trips to the markets, villages, and trips in the SUV where always and entertaining.  He has a graduate degree in cultural anthropology, so no question went unanswered. Top notch and 5 stars Beka. 

I travelled with Beka on a tour to visit the tribes of the Omo Valley. Beka's knowledgeable contributions on Ethiopian history, culture and customs added a valuable dimension to our experience. His friendly and calm manner made him a reassuring and caring presence on the trip. Thank you Beka.

I have been fortunate to travel with Beka a few times. He speaks excellent English, is very knowledgeable about Ethiopia, and clearly wants his visitors to have the best possible experience of this amazing country. With his MA in social anthropology we had a great experience amongst the southern tribal groups. I definitely recommend his services, nothing is too much trouble for him.

Beka Girma is an exellent guide. He knows a lot about the most anscient of Ethiopias thrilling history, the antropaleontology. He will not only show you archeological sites, he will also explain and make vivid the early history of humankind. For visitors from all over the world he will explain that part of history which we all, regardless of nationality, have in common.

At the same, while having the large time-perspective, he is also very well oriented in contemporary Ethiopian society. He could give you a lot of insights about what is moving on and under the surface in contemporary Ethiopia.

Moreover, he is a caring person, he cares about his country and its people, about the environment and about you as a visitor. With Beka you will be in good hands.

Beka speaks very good English.

I don't know exactly what Beka is offering for the moment because I had him as a guide a couple of years ago but I guess you could get a personally customized tour with him following your own interests and he will for sure give you a good experience.
