ADIMASU TOURS
Adimasu Tours is a young but very successful tour company established in April 2010 by Adimasu Gebeyehu. Adimasu is a young South-Omo-Valley born Ethiopian with 8 years of experience as a freelance tour guide before he realised his dream of a self-employed tour operator with the support of Carsten Gruener, Germany. An extensive knowledge about all the facets of unique Ethiopia and the joy meeting travellers from all over the world had been Adimasu`s contribution as founder of the company. Today these are the basics when we recruit new colleagues as guides, drivers or cooks to support our team. Meanwhile we have a team of 12 drivers, over 30 guides speaking many of the different local languages and a fleet of more than 8 always well maintained vehicles. We also own two newly established permanent campsites, one in Kibish Suri and the other one in West Omo Valley. At Adimasu Tours, every trip is customized to your needs. Every itinerary is flexible at all times. Even while we’re on the tour we are open to your needs and if required we can alter the programme at request. Consequently we are one of the foremost and best established tour companies providing excellent and reliable travel service all over the country. We were awarded the third prize for the most reliable travel agencies in 2012 by the Ethiopian Ministry of Culture and Tourism. We would be glad being a part of your adventure. Welcome in Ethiopia.
