Tour Features

Nightlife in addis is the Experience of dual soul of Ethiopia’s capital in a single evening. Your journey begins with a sunset drive through the city’s architectural evolution—from the regal heritage of Churchill Avenue to the glass-and-steel energy of Bole Road. The night pivots on three distinct experiences: the sensory feast of a traditional Cultural Dinner, the raw, artistic authenticity of Fendika, and the sophisticated pulse of the city’s modern lounges. Whether you’re mesmerized by the rhythmic eskista dancers or sipping cocktails in a chic Bole lounge, this tour offers a complete 360-degree view of Addis after dark.

Getting There

Ethiopia, situated in the famous Horn of Africa, is known as both the Land of Origins and the Land of a Thousand Smiles. Most of the visitors arrive at the Bole International Airport (ADD) in Addis Ababa. Usually, the Safari operator picks you up at the airport and takes care of any travel arrangements from there. If you are already in the region it’s possible to get in by land from Sudan, Kenya and Djibouti. It is best to stay away from the borders of South Sudan and Somalia. Drive-around tours are also available (especially in southern Ethiopia). Even when flying around, covering some distances by car can be very rewarding as you'll see some of the Ethiopian countrysides.
