    Great experience in Addis

    Katie_C, Feb 2026
    We had a great food tour with Oli and would definitely recommend him if you want a real introduction to Ethiopian food and culture. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made everything feel easy and relaxed, even when we were trying things for the first time. We started with a traditional coffee ceremony and then tried a mix of local dishes, including beyaynetu, shekla tibs, and tire siga. Oli took us to places we never would have found on our own and explained what everything was and how to eat it. The experience felt authentic, not touristy, and we left very full and happy. Highly recommend this tour if you’re visiting Addis.

    Liyu food tour

    I highly recommend this tour. I spoke to Yhun, and he was helpful and and informative. Olli was my guide and Awet was my driver, and they made the ride a lot of fun! And the food part was excellent, and also educational. Olli would explain the variations in the food, break down the names and share some history. Olli and Awet also answered my questions about Addis and gave me suggestions on must do activities. All in all, it was a great experience from start to finish.

    Great tour with Yhun...

    Jason_T, Jul 2025
    Great tour with Yhun Ejigu as my guide. I was late for my pick up time and he came to get me anyway. Had a great exchange over food, and after considering our conversation he adapted the tour on the fly for me and my last stop was a local brewery instead of a fruit shop. Smart choice. Ask for Yhun and take this tour (and go tot he brewery).
