Guide Ahmed A.
Hello, I'm Ahmed
My name is Ahmed. My aim is to promote local tourism and introduce new people to both the Bale Mountains and the whole of Ethiopia, all the while providing clients with a better level of service and a better experience overall. Through this, I hope to help make Ethiopia a world-class tourism destination.
I have been working as a guide in the Bale Mountains and with Bale Mountains National Park for 9 years and during this time I have been continuously striving to improve my guiding knowledge and the service I offer.
I attended the Lion Ethiopia Tourism and Hotel College in Addis Ababa where I received my Tour Guide Diploma and the Alliance Ethio Francaise school again in Addis Ababa where I received my French language Diploma. In addition, I have attended numerous tourism and guiding-related training provided by Bale Mountains National Park (BMNP) and the Frankfurt Zoological Society (FZS). My passion is guiding and I am committed to both this field of work and providing my skills.
I am the winner and received an Award from Visit Oromia Tourism as the BEST TOUR GUIDE of the Year 2023.

Ahmed and his crew demonstrated exceptional professionalism throughout the journey. Despite challenging conditions, the food provided was outstanding and plentiful. Ahmed's expertise in identifying various plant and animal species, including a rare Serval cat, was impressive. Overall, we highly recommend this experience.

- MMatthieuabout provider26 Mar, 2023Last year I had a five-day horseback journey through the Bale Mountains, an experience that remains one of my most cherished memories. The sense of liberation and awe I felt was unparalleled. My guide, Ahmed, was an ideal companion - he was understanding, supportive, well-informed, wise, amiable and deeply connected to Ethiopian culture and the splendor of his homeland. Ahmed flawlessly orchestrated the entire trip and handled all logistical aspects with precision. I warmly recommend him and wish him all the best
