Maereg is a great, friendly and very skilled guide, who made my short visit to Ethiopia deeply memorable to say the least! I went on the 4-day trek to Abune Yosef, which was an amazing experience. Maereg is very knowledgable about the the local flora and fauna, and he showed me many interesting birds. I experienced problems with the high altitude upon approaching the peak, but i felt in very good hands. As I got very dizzy and feverish, we organized to head down to Lalibela by car the last day, and Maereg facilitated this in a very professional and smooth way. I'm really glad that I went on the trek and happy that a potentially dangerous situation was avoided! Also, Maereg showed me around Lalibela, visited some restaurants and his place. I can't recommend joining a trek or tour enough if you are in Lalibela! :)
