Spend three hours in Addis Ababa with a traditional dinner of injera, doro wat, and tibs, followed by Ethiopian music and dance. English-speaking guide Musse has escorted guests to the venue, with pickup and return included. Expect a lively show, local drinks, and possible audience participation.

“Must do if you go to Addis Ababa. If you’re into culture, then the singing, dancing and food is surely something you need to witness. It’s one of the most eventful things I did while in Addis Ababa, and something I recommend all to experience. I even was invited on stage to do some dancing which was fun to record for my family and friends back home.”
