How to choose your trip to Ethiopia
Tours to Ethiopia usually focus on one of two main travel regions. The Historical Circuit in the north explores the amazing sites of Lalibela, Gonder and Axum in addition to the beautiful Simien Mountains, Lake Tana and Blue Nile Falls. Southern Ethiopia is renowned for its colourful and diverse traditional tribal groups as well as a number of national parks for wildlife viewing. Dedicated trekking tours to the Simien Mountains are available which include an ascent of Africa's fourth highest mountain, Ras Dashen. Ethiopia also lies along the Nile and Rift Valley route, a remote overlanding journey connecting Cairo to Nairobi.
