We are a group of 3 hikers just completed a trekking to Bale Mountains, since the very beginning Armaye at Armaye Ethiopia Tours provided us amazing service more than we expected. He was very helpful and easily contactable person. I found him via posts and reviews of Trip Advisor and then contacted him two weeks ago through email to finalize the trip, even if we are late but he helped us to arrange all the program.

When we arrived in Dinsho, Armaye was there and welcomed us with big smile picked us up from the town to the park Headquarters where our camp site is located. We paid all necessary payment in there and he explained to us about details of the trip. The campsites were excellent. On the next day, we met with our porters and other staff who are going with us on the hike, they all really a very good guys and treated us very well.

Armaye always make sure our needs were fulfilled; extra sleeping bags were given to us when we felt cold on the mountains. Armaye is really a good guide, patience and also very knowledgeable about the park and he always spot birds and other animals such as Ethiopian Wolves in the park. When we arrived to the camping sites, our cook Idris also always ready with hot coffee and snacks, his soup and food was delicious.

We had truly a life changing experience in Bale Mountains with Armaye and his friends, it was the right decision to use them. on the end we are also discussed about our next trip to Ethiopia with his company. I would recommend anybody to do this trek and you will not regret using this company,

Thank you Armaye Hope to see you again!

Ethiopia is very special and beautiful country with lot’s to offer; I had not expected such a wealth of history, culture and breath taking mountains, Much of the country is green, lush and productive. We also loved the interaction with the people and their culture in the cities and villages. There are so many outstanding and memorable places to visit. We really enjoyed our trip to Ethiopia (Addis, Hawasa, Arba Minch, Dorze, Omo Valley, Bale Mountains) this tour was organized through Armaye Ethiopia Tours (armynega@gmail.com). Thanks to our guide Armaye Negalign and his driver Mele for treating us so well from the beginning of our first email contact to our last moment at the airport. The responses from Armaye were the most prompt and professional, he and his team was very friendly, caring and helpful. It was wonderful to walk through out the villages meeting people and also the beauty of the country side and experiencing the breathtaking views of the Bale Mountains. Ethiopian’s are generally polite and friendly; you will enjoy interacting with people; just forget your preconceptions about famine and desert.

I really liked what the tour company put together and feel they delivered on everything they said, they would. We would recommend this tour to anyone looking great diversity and fun. It was an amazing experience, looking forward to going back

The bale mountains is an amazing attraction in Ethiopia which is home of different wildlife.
