Ride
EssentialEthiopia's leading ride-hailing app, built locally for the Addis Ababa market. It works similarly to Uber and is the most reliable way to get around the capital. Supports cash payments.
Pro tip: Ride is Addis Ababa only and does not work in other Ethiopian cities. For travel outside the capital, arrange transport through your hotel or a local tour operator.
ZayRide
Nice to haveAnother popular Ethiopian ride-hailing app competing with Ride in Addis Ababa. Known for its responsive customer service and growing driver fleet.
Pro tip: If Ride cannot find you a driver during peak hours (morning rush and late afternoon), try ZayRide. Having both apps installed gives you better odds.
