Begin your experience with a private hotel pickup and journey up to Mount Entoto's summit. Arrive at a unique mountaintop spa facility surrounded by forest greenery and indulge in a professional massage session and a traditional Ethiopian herbal steam ritual designed to melt away stress. As you unwind, take in sweeping, 360-degree panoramic views over the entire capital city spreading out below.
After your spa session, enjoy a gentle, short stroll through the quiet eucalyptus trails surrounding the retreat to breathe in the fresh mountain air. If you happen to be lucky, you might spot wild vervet monkeys in the trees.
