6 Hours Addis Walking Tour
Tour Summary
Addis Ababa is a melting pot of cultures and a bizarre combination of past and present – the coexistence of old imperial statues alongside hammer and sickle placards of the former Marxist regime and the juxtaposition of wattle and daub huts with austere Italian Fascist buildings and luxurious hotels. On foot is the best way to get up close and personal, and experience the best that our city has to offer! Also, it allows you to get a feel for a place, its past and its people. Be absorbed by the sights, sounds and smells of this busy, eclectic and vibrant city!
