Helena is a guide of highest qualification, her excursions and tours and thought out to the tiniest detail, her stories about Ethiopia, its towns, nature, history and people are most interesting, enthralling and informative. Her choice of hotels for us during our tour is flawless: they were really best quality hotels. DUring the trip we didn't have to worry, since all was well organized, attached, thought out and calculated. We were pleased to see how local people relate to us and our guide (hotel employees, local guides, airport staff, drivers, museum and church caretakers, priests and guards). We saw heartwarming expression of friendship, attachment and gratitude. This is because Helena loves this country and we understand reasons of this love, too
