Three of the 6 tours in our calendar tours schedule for the 2009/2010 tour season are new additions! For the intrepid riders there is now a short tour to the Danakil Depression. A ride not to be missed to one of the most amazing places on Earth! Seeing is believing.... We have also added 2 short tours to the north and south which will appeal to those whom are on a tighter schedule and not only want to experience the cultural and natural attractions Ethiopia has to offer but also great off-road riding through the inside, off-the-beaten track roads.
Alternatively, if none of these tours is what you are looking for just get in touch with us for a custom made tour and we will send you a personal itinerary and quote based on your requirements. We have many more itineraries available for all skill levels from novice to expert riders and if we haven't done it yet we will design it and test it just for you!
Don't forget to check the custom made tours page as we will sometimes post booked trips which you may join.
