Getting There
Ethiopia, situated in the famous Horn of Africa, is known as both the Land of Origins and the Land of a Thousand Smiles. Most of the visitors arrive at the Bole International Airport (ADD) in Addis Ababa. Usually, the Safari operator picks you up at the airport and takes care of any travel arrangements from there. If you are already in the region it’s possible to get in by land from Sudan, Kenya and Djibouti. It is best to stay away from the borders of South Sudan and Somalia. Drive-around tours are also available (especially in southern Ethiopia). Even when flying around, covering some distances by car can be very rewarding as you'll see some of the Ethiopian countrysides.

If you are planning to visit Ethiopia we are the perfect solution for your travel needs! Book an Ethiopia adventure tour & safari trip for a unique and exhilarating experience. Ethiopia, widely regarded as the birthplace of humanity, is a large country located in the Horn of Africa to the north-east of the continent. Dissected by the Great Rift Valley that runs from south-west to north-east, Ethiopia contains monumental mountain ranges and highlands, semi-deserts and steppes alongside the vast plateaus and lowlands that combine to form one of the most ecologically diverse habitats in the world. From the tropical rainforests in the south to the borderland deserts in the east, Ethiopia has long been a desirable destination for safari and adventure lovers. The best part about Ethiopian vacations is that in combination with the Ethiopian Highlands that cover large portions of the country, the tropical monsoon climate means that Ethiopia is generally much cooler than other nations similarly near to the equator. The Ethiopian Highlands themselves rarely fall below 1500m and are often referred to as the Roof of Africa. However, at lower levels, Bale trek Ethiopia tours safari tours take you in the tropical savannah and grasslands which are home to countless endangered species including Ethiopian wolf, mountain nyala, Bale monkeys, leopards, lions, spotted hyenas and olive baboons. At 1688 meters, you will find the lush flora and fauna of Lake Tana. Located in the northern part of Ethiopia an hour flight from the capital Addis Ababa, Lake Tana is Ethiopia’s largest and the source of the Blue Nile. Here you will find many species of bird and highly distinctive fish, with an estimated 750% of these endemic to the lake itself. Some 37 islands, home to the Gelada baboon and Walia ibex amongst many others, are scattered within the lake and a standard Ethiopia safari itinerary will take in many of these sights. Travelling even further into the clouds, the Bale Mountain National Park contains Ethiopia’s second highest peak. Standing at an imposing 4377 meters, Mount Tull Deemtu and the surrounding parkland, cover more than 2165 square kelomters and is divided into five distinct vagetion habitats. Entire Ethiopia safari holidays are based within this great expanse and can take in Northern Grasslands, the Northern Woodlands, the Afro-Alpine Meadows, the Erica Moorlands and the Harenna Forest – all of which are remarkable for their diversity and endemicity. Finally, no Ethiopian safari would be complete without a glimpse of the mighty African elephant and the critically endangered black rhino. Found within the southernmost part of Ethiopia, a good guided Bale trek Ethiopia tour will certainly help you enjoy the conservation efforts currently helping these animals regain a foothold in their natural habitat. Alongside other critically endangered animals, such as the Ethiopian wolf (the rarest canid in the world), Bale trek Ethiopia tours safaris offer travelers a unique window into the untamed beauty of the natural world – including a number of unforgettable flora and fauna which may not be with us much longer and more!!
