Ethiopia Luxury Holidays

Ethiopia luxury holidays are a treasure trove of cultural treats, natural delights and historical gems, making the East African country an excellent destination for inquisitive travellers. Its ancient past can be discerned from various architectural structures, such as the UNESCO-listed rock-cut churches of Lalibela (thought to date back to between the seventh and 13th centuries) and the stoic castles of Gondar (from the 17th century). The country’s history extends back even further with the discovery of Lucy, the famous 3.2 million-year old fossil skeleton of a human ancestor, on display at the National Museum in Addis Ababa.

Situated within the Horn of Africa, Ethiopia’s landscapes are some of the most epic on the planet. Boasting everything from soaring mountain scenery and steep-sided valleys to lush highlands and sweeping deserts, the country’s topography is as rich as its cultural history. Trek through the rugged Simien Mountains with an expert guide in search of gelada baboons, seek out Ethiopian wolves in the Bale Mountains and visit the island monasteries of Lake Tana. Scattered across the country, you’ll find an array of sumptuous hotels and boutique lodges, perfectly suited to Ethiopia luxury holidays.
