Tour guide in Addis Ababa Muluken G.
I'm Muluken G., your private tour guide in Addis Ababa
Guide #5674
Welcome!! I'm Muluken. I am professional experienced tour organizer/guide in Addis Ababa and Ethiopia. I am here to make your tour experience special. Please, read further below and know me better. I was born and grew up in Addis Ababa - where I completed my junior education. I studied Accounting and was graduated in Diploma from Mekelle University. I didn't, luckily, like my job for 7 months as an Accountant till I decided something social. Then, I studied Tour Operation and Travel Management at the Catering and Tourism Training Institute for two years and graduated in Diploma in 2004 with 'Distinctions' ranking. I worked as a permanent tour operator/guide for the next five years at two of the best known tour companies in Addis Ababa. From August 2009 on, I've been enjoying organizing city tours in Addis Ababa, day tours around Addis Ababa, and longer day private tours to the historical sites of Northern Ethiopia, and the cultural and natural sites of the Omo Valley of Southern Ethiopia. My best quality, I believe, is customizing private tours in Addis Ababa, and longer days tours in Ethiopia. In addition to living in Addis, and professional knowledge and years of experience I got, I am passionate for guiding. Tour guiding is not only my way of earning money, it is a passion I live for. One thing about traveling with me is that your tour with me can be pretty much anything you want it to be. If you want learning, look for soft adventure, need to try local foods, wish to have fun at traditional bars, it is all ready waiting for you! Please, have a look at what my previous clients experienced Addis Ababa and Ethiopia with me for more. And, contact me if you think I and my previous clients mean it! Diploma in Accounting from Mekelle University - Faculty of Business, Law, and Economics (2001) Diploma in Tour Operation and Travel Management from Addis Ababa Catering and Tourism Training Institute(2004) Bachlor Degree in Marketing Management from St. Mary's University College (2012)

Terrific tour. Muluken is a great guide, professional and personable. The highlight for us was Lucy. The national museum is extremely well done, very informative, but also engaging at the same time. The palace of Haile Selassie was also quite interesting. Our focus is not normally to see museums, but these are highly recommended. The coffee ceremony was also fun. We...

This is a wonderful tour to take where you will see stunning landscapes and have the opportunity to enter one of the Ethiopian Orthodox’s most important holy buildings. Be prepared for a very long bumpy journey, but in a comfortable vehicle, and a lot of walking over rough terrain at the gorge. You will be well rewarded with spectacular photographs. It is an adventure: go...

Dear Mr. Ross, Thank you very much for booking the excursion from Addis Ababa to Debre Libanos Monastery and sites around with me! Thank you also for taking time to leave this thoughtful feedback. I like you mentioned the long drive and a bit uneasy walk to the viewpoint, it is part of the adventure. Sorry for not making it a 5* experience. Thanks a lot again, Mr....
