Ethiopia is a country where so many cultures come together as one to form a fascinating nation. Its cultural diversity has existed since the beginning of time and is incomparably unique.

With more than 80 different ethnic groups living together with a tradition as old as humanity itself, Ethiopia is a melting pot of cultures. Many people visit Ethiopia — or hope to do so one day — because of the remarkable manner in which ancient historical traditions have been preserved. And, indeed, the ceremonies and rituals of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church open a window on the authentic world of the Old Testament. Like nowhere else, in this country you will find yourself so dramatically transported back in time and able to participate with such freedom in the sacred rituals of an ancient faith.

The following festival tours are designed around some of the most important and colorful festivals of the Ethiopian calendar together with a visit to the highlights of the Classic Historic Route of Ethiopia
