Early in the morning, take a domestic flight from Addis Ababa to Lalibela. Upon arrival, meet your local guide and transfer to your hotel for check-in and a short rest.

Begin your guided tour of the northern cluster of Lalibela’s famous rock-hewn churches, including the impressive Bet Medhane Alem, Bet Maryam, and Bet Meskel. Explore these remarkable churches, connected by ancient tunnels and passageways carved entirely from solid rock.

After lunch at a local restaurant, continue discovering more of Lalibela’s historic churches and learn about their fascinating history, religious significance, and the legacy of King Lalibela.

Return to your hotel in the evening for dinner and overnight stay.

After breakfast, continue your exploration of Lalibela by visiting the southern cluster of the rock-hewn churches, ending with the iconic Bet Giyorgis (St. George Church). Carved into the ground in the shape of a perfect cross, this magnificent church is the most famous symbol of Lalibela and one of Ethiopia’s greatest architectural treasures.

Depending on your time and interests, you may visit a traditional Tej house to experience local honey wine culture or explore a local market for handicrafts and souvenirs.

In the afternoon, transfer to the airport for your return flight to Addis Ababa. Upon arrival, enjoy a farewell Ethiopian cultural dinner featuring traditional music, dance, and a coffee ceremony before your international departure or transfer to your hotel.
