Drivers in Ethiopia

I am going to post a list of drivers who other families have used and would recommend. I can only personally recommend the first one on the list, as he was our driver. Please know these have come highly recommended, however, you should use your own caution as well. My understanding is that all of them speak English well and will know the city for any need you may have. Some drive outside of the city as well. All of the have been recommended by ADOPTIVE families so that should not be an issue. They will know where to go for things related to adoption if that is needed.

Terefe Konde: 091-121-05-17 or at 011-122-26-22.
Here is the driver we liked best. He speaks English well and will take you wherever you want to go. He has driven almost exclusively for adoptive families for the last 14 years. Take him a bumper sticker of your state, He puts them all over the inside of his car and tells his clients about them. He took us shopping, for a tour of the city and all around to wherever we wanted to go. He knows every place and the best way to get there. He even translated all the jabbering of our boys. That was priceless. While we were there the going rate was 50 birr an hour. Pay him whatever is the going rate, rounded up and give him tips every time. Not at all expected but SOOOO appreciated. He is a great guy. Take his number with you and when you want to go out give him an advance call to reserve him as your driver. He will be happy to drive you.
