FAVOURITE DESTINATION:

Ethiopia for its constant surprises, authenticity, and unspoiled nature, Greece for its vibrant culture and a history that continues to inspire through its well-preserved archaeological sites, and Taiwan, a place that still seems to evade the interest of much mainstream tourism and reveals its charms in a myriad of subtle, unexpected ways.

Chris Tripodi Chris travels because it is the most interesting thing he can think of doing between meals. Anyone can buy a plane ticket, but helping a country come alive through its people, sights, culture, cuisine and customs is what Adventures Abroad is all about. Chris enjoys the inevitable challenges, the unforgettable moments, the warm people, the stories shared, the memories made, and every single morsel of each tour. Read More

Jonathan Hodgson Jonathan has lived much of his life dedicated to the idea that he would rather have a wealth of experiences than a wealth of riches. Having taken up a nomadic lifestyle shortly after finishing his undergraduate degree, he has been on the move on and off over the last 25+ years. The wanderlust has taken him to basing himself in places such as Scotland, Australia and Uzbekistan, and to visiting many more locations around our planet. Now (sort of) settled in Vancouver with his wonderful (and patient) family, he still loves the idea of having the world as his office and always enjoys trying to capture the essence of the locations he travels and tours in with his photography.

jonathan hodgson
EDUCATION:
BA in Psychology at McGill University; MBA at the University of British Columbia; self-educated passion for history and culture.
LANGUAGE:
English; conversational French; improving Spanish and Russian. And a decent Scottish accent.
TOURS LED:
I have led tours in over 100 countries over the last 17 years of working for Adventures Abroad on all of the continents except for Antarctica.
FAVOURITE DESTINATION:
Where to begin? Each place has something that makes it a special destination. A few that spring to mind: Kaieteur Falls in Guyana; the snow-covered mountains of Ladakh, India; sipping tea in a chaikhana of the old town of Bukhara, Uzbekistan; and watching the changing colours of Uluru (Ayers Rock) at sunset.

+ Biography
martin charlton
EDUCATION:
Bachelor's Degree in Geography; further studies in Archaeology & Anthropology. Life's real education happens outside the classroom.
LANGUAGE:
English and some French & Spanish.
TOURS LED:
Having led tours for Adventures Abroad for over 27 years, there are few corners of the globe where Martin’s left a stone unturned: everywhere from North Korea to Nauru, Saudi Arabia to Sudan, Guinea-Bissau to French Guiana. With over 200 tours through over 125 countries under his belt, it might be faster to list the regions where he hasn’t led a tour.
FAVOURITE DESTINATION:
"My love of travel and infectious enthusiasm for different cultures has taken me to over 155 countries. The further off the beaten path, the better. For a favourite place: perhaps South Georgia Island, the Canadian Arctic, Tasmania or Cesky Krumlov in the Czech Republic. World's best city = Istanbul!"

Victor Romagnoli I love the excitement of getting up each morning on a tour and not knowing exactly how a day will unfold. It keeps me on my toes so to speak, and adds a breath of excitement to each day on tour. With almost 30 years of tour leading under my belt, I thank all of you for being a part of this exciting journey. Read More
+ Biography
victor romagnoli
EDUCATION:
HBA English BA History
LANGUAGE:
Being able to speak several languages has made travelling an enriching experience; the conversations one can so easily slip into with locals - who come from all walks of life - adds greatly to my feel for a place.
TOURS LED:
Over a span of almost 30 years, I have lead tours virtually all over the globe.
FAVOURITE DESTINATION:
Some of my favourite tours just come into being suddenly as a result of a request; someone will ask me to put together an itinerary that will include the highlights of several countries and the next thing you know we have, for example, a tour to Uruguay, Paraguay & Bolivia, or Lesotho, Namibia & Botswana. Sometimes I will be asked to arrange a detailed itinerary to just one region within a country - like a close up look at Sicily or Crete or the Basque Country or Newfoundland. Without the keen curiosity that so many of you travellers have, none of these "spontaneous" tours would come into being. But they do.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
ASK A QUESTION
01. Do you need a visa to travel to Ethiopia?
All nationals except, those from Kenya and Djibouti, require a visa to visit Ethiopia. You can gain an e-visa beforehand at www.evisa.gov.et. Alternatively, tourist visas can be obtained upon landing at Bole International Airport. A single-entry 30-day visa is available for $52 while a single-entry 90-day visa is $72.
02. Is Ethiopia safe?
Overall, Ethiopia is a very safe destination for travellers and you’re unlikely to encounter any issues. Levels of violent crime are low and extremely rare against tourists. However, you should be wary of thieves and con artists (particularly in Addis Ababa). Remain vigilant in bus terminals and markets, where pickpockets are sometimes known to operate.
03. When is the best time to visit Ethiopia
Generally, the best time of year to visit Ethiopia is during the dry season between October-May. If you do choose to visit during the rainy season (June-September), you’ll benefit from fewer tourists while getting to see much of the land at its most lush and green. January is usually the busiest month to visit Ethiopia when travellers get to enjoy its most vibrant festivals (including Leddet and Timkat) and generally dry and cool weather.
