Scam guide.

jim_c, Jun 2025

Scam! Do Not book with this charlatan! This “tour” guide will take your money and that's the last you hear from him. It’s not everyday you get the opportunity to spend a few hours visiting the sights of Addis Ababa and with a 9 hour layover I decided to book a layover tour with plenty of time to visit the museums, see Lucy, the market, local viewpoints etc… Anyhow, I needed to know whereabouts in the airport I would be picked up and that’s when my troubles began. No answer at all to my emails, I left voice messages, a lady from viator tried to contact him and she couldn’t get in touch with him. My tour time came and went with no sign and I was then forced to book another tour, at extra expense. By the time this new tour commenced all the museums etc.. were shut! Understandably I’m not happy as the costs of this have mounted up, let alone the wasted time making calls to viator etc… hopefully, I’ll get some of it back but I’m not holding my breath on that one. Come on viator, properly vet these pretend operators so they can’t scam tourists as I missed out on quite a lot.
