Ethiopia

Ethiopia is a country of origins and soul. It is a place where you can lose yourself in the ethereal whirl of Timkat and wild expanses of Bale Mountains before indulging in the delectable aromas of a coffee ceremony and hearty flavours of injera and kitfo.

The small town of Lalibela is home to 11 medieval churches that are one of the most sacred sites in the world. These magnificent structures were carved into the earth during the 13th century. The churches of Lalibela are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an important pilgrimage site in Ethiopia.

To the north of Lake Tana, the source of the Blue Nile and the largest lake in Ethiopia, is the enthralling city of Gonder. Known as the ‘Camelot of Africa’ and home to the iconic 17th century Fasil Ghebbi palace, this majestic fortress whispers of ancient East African empires.

Wander through winding alleyways, explore bustling markets and encounter wild hyenas in Harar, one of the oldest cities in Africa. Or trade the bustling cities in for the dreamy landscapes of Simien Mountains National Park or tribal encounters in the Omo Valley.
