Ethiopia Travel Guide + Vlog | Addis Ababa and Awassa
What are the best things to do in Ethiopia? This travel guide slash vlog will show you everything I did during my two weeks there! From Addis Ababa to Awassa, I'll take you to two beautiful regions of the country and share some of my best travel tips.
I visited Ethiopia for work, so didn't get to do many typical touristy things like the churches in Lalibela, Danakil Depression or hiking the Simien Mountains. But my experiences were perhaps a little more local and authentic than your average guided tour, so I hope you'll take this video for what it is.
Have you ever been to Ethiopia? Did you just pass through the capital of Addis Ababa, or did you have time to go sightseeing? Let me know in a comment below, I'm so curious!

Ethiopia, officially known as the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, is a country located in the Horn of Africa. It is bordered by Eritrea to the north and northeast, Djibouti and Somalia to the east, Sudan and South Sudan to the west, and Kenya to the south. With about 87.9 million inhabitants, Ethiopia is the most populous landlocked country in the world, as well as the second-most populated nation on the African continent. It occupies a total area of 1,100,000 square kilometres (420,000 sq mi), and its capital and largest city is Addis Ababa.
Some of the oldest evidence for modern humans is found in Ethiopia, which is widely considered the region from which Homo sapiens first set out for the Middle East and points beyond. Tracing its roots to the 2nd millennium BC, Ethiopia was a monarchy for most of its history. During the first centuries of the Common Era the Kingdom of Aksum maintained a unified civilization in the region.
Ethiopia derived prestige for its uniquely successful military resistance during the late 19th-century Scramble for Africa, and subsequently many African nations adopted the colors of Ethiopia's flag following their independence. Ethiopia was the only African country to defeat a European colonial power and retain its sovereignty as an independent country. It was the first independent African member of the 20th-century League of Nations and the UN. In 1974, at the end of Haile Selassie's reign, power fell to a communist military junta known as the Derg, backed by the Soviet Union, until it was defeated by the EPRDF, which has ruled since about the time of the collapse of the USSR in 1991.
Ethiopia is a multilingual society with around 80 ethnic groups, with the two largest being the Oromo and the Amhara. It is the origin of the coffee bean. Ethiopia is a land of natural contrasts; with its vast fertile West, jungles, and numerous rivers, the world's hottest settlement of Dallol in its north, Africa's largest continuous mountain ranges and the largest cave in Africa at Sof Omar. Ethiopia has the most UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Africa. Ethiopia's ancient Ge'ez script, also known as Ethiopic, is one of the oldest alphabets still in use in the world. It shares many similarities with the Armenian alphabet. The Ethiopian calendar, which is seven years and about three months behind the Gregorian calendar, co-exists alongside the Oromo calendar. A majority of the population is Christian and a third is Muslim; the country is the site of the Hijrah to Abyssinia and the oldest Muslim settlement in Africa at Negash. A substantial population of Ethiopian Jews, known as Beta Israel, resided in Ethiopia until the 1980s but most of them have since gradually emigrated to Israel.
Ethiopia is one of the founding members of the UN, the Group of 24 (G-24), the Non-Aligned Movement, G-77 and the Organisation of African Unity, with Addis Ababa serving as the headquarters of the African Union, the Pan African Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the UNECA, African Aviation Training HQ, the African Standby Force and much of global NGOs focused on Africa. Despite being the main source of the Nile, the longest river on earth, Ethiopia underwent a series of famines in the 1980s, exacerbated by civil wars and adverse geopolitics. The country has begun to recover recently, and it now has the largest economy by GDP in East Africa and Central Africa. According to Global Fire Power, Ethiopia also has the 40th most powerful military in the world.Wikipedia

How does the Ethiopian Airlines FREE TRANSIT HOTEL in Addis Ababa work? | Honeymoon VLOG 7
It wasn't very clear to us before our trip how this Ethiopian Airlines free transit hotel business was going to work out for us from Cape Town - Addis Ababa - Seychelles so I wanted to share how it exactly works from start to end including the hotel voucher. Open this up to learn more ↓
✈️TRAVEL HACKING
If you're travelling through Africa, Ethiopian Airlines is a very good option especially if you're with Star Alliance and using your points. Often times, you'll run into issues with making connecting flights through Addis Ababa. In our case, we arrived in Addis really late from Cape Town and to connect with our flight to Seychelles meant we had to stay overnight. Luckily, Ethiopian Airlines offers a complimentary transit hotel if your layover is 8 to 24 hours and between two Ethiopian Airlines international flights..
????The rules:
- You must be connecting through to an international flight on Ethiopian Airlines
- The long layover overnight must be the result of not having a choice for anything else (as in there are no options to fly out on the same day)
- Your passport must be eligible for a transit visa on arrival (most passports seem to be fine although there's no official list)
???? Here's what you need to know that nobody tells you about:
1️⃣ You CANNOT remove your bags during the transit so pack accordingly. This was not made clear in other guides I've read.
2️⃣You do not need to go to the transfer office when you land. Head straight out and go to the hotel transfer desk that is right outside the luggage hall in the arrivals area.
3️⃣Overnight in Ethiopia means that another country you fly to may immediately ask for Yellow Fever documentation. It is recommended that you have this ready.

Incredible UNSEEN FOOD of AFRICA - Dorze Ethnic Group in Ethiopia!

This is Part 2 of our Ethiopian village cultural food tour. If you haven’t already seen Part 1, you can watch it here:
From the incredible Konso Village, we drove back to Arba Minch in Ethiopia, and then continued driving into the mountains, to a Dorze ethnic people village, high into the misty peaks. This is the village where Dessie is originally from, and also our driver, so they know everyone there. It was amazing to arrive to the village.
One of the amazing parts of Dorze Ethiopian culture are their elephant shaped traditional huts, which are unique and one of a kind, shaped like elephants. One of the main most important foods of the Dorze is false banana, also known as ensete. It’s called a false banana because they plant does not produce banana fruit, but just giant leaves, and you eat the stump.
Aunty made a number of extremely unique dishes, including a false banana porridge, and a false banana pancake, along with coffee leaves tea - something I had never seen or ever heard of before.
Visiting the Dorze of Ethiopia was an incredible culture and food learning experience, and it was an honor to have a chance to visit on this Ethiopian food tour trip.
Thanks to Dessie from Go Addis Tours ( for arranging everything on this trip.

Ethiopian Food - The ONE DISH You Have To Eat in ETHIOPIA!
►SUBSCRIBE for 2 new videos per week:
►T-shirts and caps available now:
One of my main missions when I visited Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, was to learn about how to cook what is for sure one of the most special of all Ethiopian foods: doro wat (ዶሮ ወጥ). Of course, they do serve it at restaurants in Addis Ababa, but there’s nothing like seeing the entire process of a dish, especially a stew like doro wat from start to finish, beginning with a chicken, and finishing by eating. It’s a very complicated dish to make, and it takes utmost care and time. I want to say a huge thank you to Belaneh and his family for graciously inviting us to their home and for cooking the most amazing doro wat - or even Ethiopian food meal - ever.
What is doro wat (ዶሮ ወጥ)? Doro means chicken and wat means stew - so it’s an Ethiopian chicken stew. It’s a very special dish to eat in Ethiopia, not an everyday food because it takes so much time to prepare properly. As many Ethiopians told me, it’s a dish they often eat when family comes together, and during special holidays and religious days.
I would go as far as saying Doro Wat is one of the best dishes in the world. The complexity yet harmony of spices, the richness, the contrast of taste when paired with injera - your taste buds will be blown off your tongue! Thank you to Bela and his incredible family, they took no shortcuts on making doro wat, and beyond the delicious food, it was so extremely special to get to know them and hang out with them.
We first went to the fresh wet market in Addis Ababa to buy a chicken, the live chicken. We then gathered a few more ingredients, including the chopped red onions, which is the main component of doro wat sauce, and went back to Bela’s home. Butchering a chicken in Ethiopian, due to some of the Ethiopian Orthodox traditions, needs to be butchered in a certain way, and washed and cleaned many times. It was by far the most cleansed chicken I’ve ever seen or eaten. The onions simmered for a few hours before we started adding in the berbere blend spice and finally the chicken went in to brew with the amazing spices.
To eat Ethiopian food, you first typically build a plate or platter of injera, and then scoop the food onto the injera. We all shared a platter and scooped on the beautiful doro wat. It was unbelievably delicious, so rich and packed with spice.
Again, thank you to Bela and his wife (and baby) for cooking us one of the most special meals you can eat in Ethiopia.

Addis Ababa: The capital of Ethiopia is looking for ways to solve its parking issues
Ethiopia's capital, Addis Ababa, one of the largest largest and busiest cities in Africa, faces parking issues like any other metropolitan city. Stakeholders and private business entities are looking for ways to solve this issue.
President Park arrives in Addis Ababa, summit talks set with Ethiopian leader
박 대통령, 아디스아바바 도착.. 정상회담으로 국빈 방문 일정 시작
Our top story....
President Park Geun-hye has arrived in Ethiopia -- the first stop of her trip to East Africa.
The president has laid out her vision for Ethiopia and Africa -- which she will likely discuss with the country's leaders during summit talks on Thursday.
Our Song Ji-sun reports from Addis Ababa.
Brothers by blood.
That's how President Park referred to Korea's relationship with Ethiopia... upon arriving in the only African country that sent troops to fight in the Korean War in the 1950s.
In an interview with The Ethiopian Herald, the country's state-run daily,...Park pledged Korea will stand as Ethiopia’s reliable partner on its path towards growth and development.
Ethiopia, boasting economic growth of ten percent last year... is eagerly pushing its Growth and Transformation Plan aimed at mid- to long- term development.
Anticipating the country to emerge as Africa's economic powerhouse, Seoul hopes to expand investment in Ethiopia... and help local industries grow.
Park listed three pillars of cooperation to develop Korea-Ethiopia relations in a mutually beneficial manner, to grow and learn together.
First, through Korea Aid -- a new official development aid program offering health and cultural services on trucks.
Seoul will also share its know-how on socio-economic development, which it learned particularly through Korea's Saemaul Undong, a movement of modernizing rural communities.
Cultural exchanges will be another key... to deepen understanding between the two countries.
In summit talks with Ethiopia's Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn... and in a separate session with president Mulatu Teshome... Park will discuss ways to reinforce cooperation in areas ranging from trade and investment... to defense, peacekeeping, and health.
