Sky Bus are meant to be the creme de la crème of bus transport around Ethiopia. Ethiopia is big, and those with money and not much time would be better spent getting internal flights if you really want to see all that Ethiopia has to offer.
There are six Sky Buses six days a week from Addis to Bahir Dar . Government buses take up to a day an half to make the journey, but with a 6am departure from Addis we make the journey in 10 hours. Minibuses can make the journey pending a) crashes b) flat tyres and other mechanical failures, in considerably less time.
The journey goes through some startling beautiful scenery with rich agricultural fields, superb valleys and dramatic canyons. The road is fully sealed but does have to negotiate some sharp bends – no surprises to know that minibus crashes are rife and invariably high mortality of the passengers. The safety record of Sky Bus is one of the best in the country in a country where driving is erratic at best – indeed similar to two of its southerly neighbours Kenya and Uganda.
The current fare is Birr303 including tax.

DeleteHello, I do believe your site could possibly be having browser compatibility issues.
ReplyDeleteWhen I take a look at your blog in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet
Explorer, it has some overlapping issues. I simply wanted to provide
you with a quick heads up! Aside from that, wonderful site!

Sorry about that. I don´t know why that is. It is published on blogspot so should be generally compatible with most browsers
