Description

Explore the Melka Kunture archaeological site, the rock-hewn church of Adadi Mariam, and the Tiya UNESCO site on a guided tour from Addis Ababa. Enjoy a traditional Ethiopian lunch and coffee ceremony
Begin your day with a morning pickup from your accommodation in Addis Ababa and journey south toward the scenic Awash River basin. Your first stop is the prehistoric archaeological site of Melka Kunture, an open-air museum where fossilized hominid remains, hand axes, and ancient stone tools reveal over a million years of early human history.

Continue through the countryside to Adadi Mariam, a remarkable 13th-century subterranean rock-hewn church carved directly into the earth in the architectural style of Lalibela, offering deep insight into traditional Ethiopian Orthodox spirituality.

Next, pause at a handpicked local venue for a traditional Ethiopian lunch, followed by an authentic coffee ceremony where green beans are hand-roasted and brewed in a clay jebena.

In the afternoon, travel to the famous Tiya UNESCO World Heritage Site to explore its mysterious stelae field, examining the ancient sword and symbol carvings that mark these prehistoric burial monuments. Conclude your regional expedition with a relaxed afternoon drive back to Addis Ababa, enjoying panoramic countryside views before a direct drop-off at your hotel.
