Sorry! There are no remaining departures for "Discover Ethiopia" (DEAA), but here are some similar trips.
Tucked in between the Middle East and Africa, Ethiopia sits in the middle of these distinctive regions and yet takes on a cultural mosaic and aesthetic that’s tangibly distinct. On this 10-day tour you’ll see just what we mean with Christian churches hewn from solid rock; national park’s vivid, green peaks; and fascinating cities where luxury sports cars and assorted livestock hang out together in perfect harmony.
All of the highlights, culture, access, and I-can’t-believe-we-did-that moments, all at a great price.
