Visitors pass through the village and meet the community, experience the local way of life, and discover their traditional weaving.
The Maryam Tsion monastery is the highlight of the tour. Home to a fascinating collection of ancient relics dating back almost 1,100 years, the monastery features relics such as the beautiful Gedle-Kidusen manuscript, a parchment book written in Ge’ez, the ancient language of Ethiopia.
After the tour, visitors hike to an open-air restaurant and can relax with a traditional lunch of freshly caught and grilled fish served with local vegetables and enjera, Ethiopian sourdough flat bread.
