Two of the Tigray region's most significant rock-hewn churches in two days — each at a different altitude, a different level of physical challenge, and a different depth of history. Day 1 brings you to Abreha and Atsbeha at 2,100 meters above sea level, one of Gheralta's most accessible sanctuaries, carved into the mountainside and named for the two Aksumite kings who brought Christianity to Ethiopia. Day 2 demands more: a 2-hour mountain hike on steep, vertiginous paths through the Gheralta massif to reach Abune Yemata Guh — a church carved into a sheer cliff face more than 50 meters above the ground, its interior covered with 15th-century frescoes in the Debre Sion tradition depicting the sacred procession of one of the Nine Saints of Aksum. The frescoes have retained their biblical vividness for six centuries. Private 4x4 transport, professional English-speaking guide, and full board throughout.

In the so-called “holiest town in Ethiopia”, see the 12th century stone churches of Lalibela and learn about their construction and the people who built them. Built into the volcanic landscape, each church is connected to each other and to a network of caves and tombs by deep passages in the rocky ground. Listen as your guide explains the importance of this site, and discover a hidden gem from antiquity.

Should you wish to do an excursion outside Addis Ababa, this tour with a 110km drive to the North of Addis, passing over undulating mountain ranges, takes you to. Shelter for the famous Gelada Baboon & various birds, Debre Libanos is a monastery complex that sits on a terrace between a cliff and the gorge of one of the tributaries of the Abbay River (the Blue Nile). This monastery is a living witness for one of the largest single acts of mass Christian martyrdom in the 20th century, where in 1937 Italian soldiers serving the fascist regime of Benito Musosolini slaughtered some 300 Ethiopian monks at one of this Ethiopia’s holiest religious site. This tour entails outstanding views of the famous Blue Nile Gorge and the ancient Portuguese bridge, a stop at a rural village to see their life style and local drink, with beer tasting at the oldest brewery in Addis Ababa.
