Main Attractions
From the soaring stele of Axum to Lalibela’s rock-hewn churches and the dramatic cliffs of the Simien Mountains, this journey through Ethiopia’s historic north reveals the soul of a civilization that shaped Africa’s heritage.
01
Gondar
Often called the “Camelot of Africa,” Gondar is famed for its 17th-century castles and royal enclosures. The crown jewel, Fasiladas’ Palace, rises 32 meters high with turreted walls and domed towers, blending Ethiopian and European influences in a striking fortress. This was once the seat of emperors, and its architecture whispers of a regal past.
02
Lalibela
A spiritual marvel carved into volcanic rock, Lalibela is home to a cluster of 11 medieval churches, hand-hewn into the earth. Built by King Lalibela in the 12th century to mimic the holy city of Jerusalem, this site remains a vibrant place of worship, humming with the chants of priests and the devotion of pilgrims.
03
Bahir Dar
Nestled along the shores of Lake Tana, Bahir Dar blends natural beauty with cultural depth. Cruise to island monasteries filled with vivid religious murals, witness the raw power of the Blue Nile Falls, and unwind in one of Ethiopia’s most picturesque cities, where palm-lined roads meet lakeside tranquility.
04
Axum
Once the mighty capital of the Axumite Empire, Axum is a cradle of Ethiopian civilization. The towering granite stelae are silent yet powerful symbols of a lost era. The town is steeped in myth and memory, with links to the Ark of the Covenant, Queen of Sheba, and early Christian heritage.
05
Simien Mountains National Park
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, this highland wonderland offers dramatic escarpments, deep valleys, and endemic wildlife like the Gelada baboon and Walia ibex. Hike through mist-laced ridges and marvel at nature’s grandeur in one of Africa’s most spectacular landscapes.
