Mount EntotoWelcome to Ethiopia, on arrival we will meet you at the airport, or your hotel and then offer you a fresh perspective on Addis Ababa, widely considered the African Capital City / Headquarters. We typically begin this by sightseeing the bustling aspects Addis Ababa has to offer through a drive up to Mount Entoto, the highest peak on the Entoto Mountains, which overlooks the city for a panoramic view. This way you are given the freedom to stop should anything intrigue you on the way, we are more than happy to answer any questions you may have on the way up too. The mountain reaches 3,200 meters above sea level and is densely covered by eucalyptus trees that were imported from Australia during the reign of Menelik II, and mostly planted during Emperor Haile Selassie's reign. Thus, it is sometimes referred to as the "lung of Addis Ababa". The forest on the mountain is an important source of firewood for the city. It was also a source of building material in earlier times.

Shiro Meda MarketAt Shiro Meda market, visitors can walk through or buy colorful handwoven locally made scarves, and dresses for men and women which are made from cotton and decorated with colorful embroidery. If visitors have time, they can visit the small startups working on weaving these colorful Ethiopian traditional clothes in the yellow condominium. This stop of the trip highlights local artistry where you may find enjoyment in bartering for the best price should anything interest you.

National Museum of EthiopiaThis is a great introduction to the history, culture and people of Ethiopia. It houses different collections like antiques, crafts, contemporary paintings, archaeological findings from different parts of the nation in exhibition to the public. This is also where the famous and oldest (3.2M years old) known human skeleton (fossil) - LUCY - Is displayed. We can even offer you a free guided tour at no additional charge, should you wish to learn more about the history of the contents in the museum which regarded as the treasure of the city. Please note that the National Museum is closed on Mondays in which case, we will have to interchange this experience with the Ethnological museum which we are confident will impress you just as much given that it is the palace of the former great emperor Haile Selassie who has had a rippling influence on Ethiopia as we know it today.

This is your most culturally immersive stop of the tour, right in the heart of the city where we will be guiding you through a cooking class of authentic Ethiopian cuisine! By this point we are sure you will be hungry, so enjoy the traditional meal of this experience which comes with profound health benefits! Injera for example is a gluten free pancake made from fermented Teff flour that all Ethiopians love as it never feels heavy due to great digestive properties. You will be shown how to make and eat it with vitamin and protein rich Ethiopian sides like Shero and more. We will start with the shopping experience that is done when it comes to making such flavorful cuisine and explaining the significance of the ingredients. Settle into a lunch time created by you alongside an experienced chef/cook who will explain the process intimately. This is the most fun, private and hands on experience rewarding you with a delicious meal that you can even take home with you by the end of the day.
