10 Days North Ethiopia: A Journey to UNESCO World Heritage Sites

1 Day

Step into Ethiopia’s magnificent past on this 10-day adventure with Dejene Ethiopia Tours, designed for travelers who want to fully experience all of Northern Ethiopia’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites. From the island monasteries of Lake Tana and the thundering Blue Nile Falls to the castles of Gondar, the dramatic peaks of the Simien Mountains, the ancient obelisks of Axum, and the iconic rock-hewn churches of Lalibela — this journey offers the most complete exploration of Ethiopia’s historic north.

Compared to the 6- or 8-day tours, this 10-day package allows for deeper immersion. It includes extra time in Lalibela to explore churches beyond the main cluster, a full-day excursion to the Simien Mountains National Park, and unhurried pacing in Axum and Gondar for cultural and photographic experiences. With expert guides, comfortable accommodations, and thoughtfully crafted itineraries, you’ll enjoy not just the landmarks, but also the rhythms of daily life, traditional music houses, and cultural feasts along the way.

🆚 WHY 10 DAYS IS BETTER THAN 6 OR 8 DAYS

Covers ALL UNESCO sites in Northern Ethiopia — no compromises.

✅ Extra day in Lalibela allows visits to both clusters + nearby cave churches.

Full-day excursion in Simien Mountains, instead of a quick stop.

✅ Time for authentic cultural immersion: Azmari houses, markets, coffee ceremonies.

✅ Slower pace, less travel rush, more photography & storytelling opportunities.
