Arrive on the shores of Lake Tana and dive into highland life - a monastery cruise, a market walk, and the thunder of the Blue Nile Falls.
Walk through Ethiopia's Camelot - the UNESCO-listed Fasil Ghebbi castles, angel-painted ceilings, and the sacred Fasilides Bath.
Trek the Simien escarpment with scout and guide - gelada baboon troops, dizzying viewpoints, and raw highland wilderness.
Fly to Lalibela and explore churches carved entirely from the rock - a twelfth-century wonder and UNESCO World Heritage site.
A mule trek to Asheton Mountain for sweeping valley views, then Yemrehanna Kristos - a cave church of olive-wood beams and ancient frescoes.
Fly back to Addis for last-minute shopping, then a farewell dinner of live music, dance and Ethiopian cuisine.
Overland from Bahir Dar up to the Simien Mountains, then a short flight east to Lalibela - closing the loop back to Addis Ababa.
