Day 1: Exploring Historical Monasteries and Majestic Waterfall

Witness the fascinating natural phenomenon where the Nile River flows without mixing with the lake's waters.

Your first stop is the Ura Kidane Mihret Monastery, Entos Eyesus, and Azwa Mariam, dating back to the 14th century. Situated on the Zege Peninsula, the monastery is renowned for its stunning mural paintings, ancient religious books, and sacred artifacts. As you explore, you'll have the chance to spot a variety of bird species, aquatic and terrestrial plants, and even hippos. The serene atmosphere and rich history will leave you in awe.

After a delightful lunch at a lakeside restaurant, where you can savor fresh fish from Lake Tana, drive 35 km to the village of Tis Abay. Here, embark on a hike to the iconic Blue Nile Falls. Along the way, immerse yourself in the local lifestyle and Ethiopia's picturesque countryside.

Upon arrival, cross the historic Portuguese bridge and witness the breathtaking Blue Nile Falls. Depending on the season, the water flow may vary, but the beauty and tranquility of the area are ever-present. On your return, cross the legendary Blue Nile River by boat, the same river that later converges with the White Nile at Khartoum in Sudan.

Conclude your day by checking into a top-tier resort or hotel in Bahir Dar, where you can unwind and reflect on the day’s adventures. Enjoy a peaceful evening with the soothing sounds of the lake as your backdrop.

Day 2: Leisurely Exploration and Departure
