Before You Travel to Ethiopia
Check your passport, visa requirements, travel insurance and planned itinerary before departure. Keep copies of important travel documents and bookings.
Best Time to Visit Ethiopia
The best time to visit Ethiopia is from October to the end of May. During this period, many parts of the country experience warm, mostly dry days and cool nights, making it an excellent time for sightseeing, cultural experiences and outdoor adventures.
What to Pack
Bring comfortable walking shoes, lightweight clothing, a light jacket, sun protection, personal medication and a reusable water bottle. Warmer clothing is useful in the highlands.
Money & Payments
Carry some Ethiopian birr for local purchases and smaller expenses. Payment options can vary between cities, hotels and remote destinations. We can advise you before your trip.

Ethiopian food is an important part of the travel experience. Enjoy local dishes and use safe drinking water. Our team can help with dietary requirements and food preferences.
Health & Travel Preparation
Prepare any regular medication you need and consider appropriate travel insurance. For health recommendations specific to your circumstances, consult a qualified travel-health professional before departure.
Respecting Local Culture
Ethiopia has diverse cultures, traditions and religious communities. Dress respectfully when visiting churches and cultural sites, follow local guidance and ask permission before photographing people.
Photography & Local Communities
Photography can be a wonderful part of your journey. Always ask permission before photographing people, especially during cultural ceremonies and in local communities.
