Description
On peut dire que chaque touriste qui décide de visiter notre pays vient ici et voit ces édifices monolithiques, semi-monolithiques et cavernes, églises de Lalibela, tout à fait remarquables et étranges, qui laissent perplexes les scientifiques quant à leur processus de création. souvent appelé la 8ème merveille du monde. Le style de l'excavation est unique: la plupart des églises sont sous le niveau du sol. Roha - ancien nom de Lalibelas - a environ 800 ans et, après Axum, la deuxième ville la plus sainte d'Ethiopie. C'est une ville médiévale et l'un des plus grands sites historiques du monde chrétien. Pour le Noël éthiopien de janvier, il y a des dizaines de milliers de pèlerins en ville, marchant parfois pendant un mois pour atteindre les églises. En 1978, Lalibela, qui se trouve à une altitude de 2520m, a été inscrite au patrimoine mondial ...

The experience was a 10. The company manager, Daniel, was very clear from the beginning and complied with everything agreed. Arriving in Lalibela, Abbaba, our local guide, was waiting for us. Your knowledge and warmth made it an amazing 3 days stay. We went to all the churches, explained every detail, brought us closer to the culture and customs of the place, We did an incredible traking of a whole day until no monastery! It was an experience of 10 worth living!! Thanks Daniel and Abbab!!!
The guide I had was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and about the importance of Christianity in the area. I could not have expected better. The guide and driver were also accommodating to my needs of a slower pace due to an injury, and they were wonderful every time I was walking a bit slower or needed a break.

We would be delighted to welcome you again on another unforgettable journey through Ethiopia. There’s still so much beauty and culture to explore, and we’d love to be part of your next adventure. Thanks once again for choosing Highland Ethiopia Tours. your trust and support are deeply appreciated. Warmest regards, Daniel
An absolutely amazing experience. From the moment I arrived at the airport I was met by the driver who showed nothing but hospitality. We dropped my luggage to the hotel and proceeded to the churches. The site was magnificent and the guides were very knowledgeable about the history and architecture . I would recommend this company to anyone wishing to visit
I spent two days & nights in Lalibela exploring the rock-hewn churches and the surrounding mountains under the care and guidance of Highland Eco Tours & Trekking. It included the history and overview of the churches, a 14K day trek up to one of the churches in the mountains, lunch with my guide and his family in his home (the best) . I absolutely loved the whole experience. I felt safe (as a woman traveling alone), cared for and comfortable that I had the best possible experience and that I had not missed anything AND that I still want to come back for more.
I had a 2 day tour (April 29-30) of the Lalibela churches with Achenef Enegdaw as my tour guide. I saw several churches when I arrived. Stayed over night and saw the remainder the next morning before I flew back to Addis Ababa. He was an outstanding tour guide steeped in the history and religion of the churches. He was excellent and filled me with information as we walked through and around the 11 rock hewn churches. It was one of the great experiences of my adult life. I have been traveling in Africa for almost 30 years, and have never has such a profound emotional and spiritual experience as I did in Lalibela.
Very friendly and knowledgeable guide 'Baby'. The churches themselves are incredible and this is a great way to visit on a short time frame
Perhaps the most important visit of Ethiopia the churches of Lalibela is a World Heritage Site and takes us back to times when the construction of these works carved in rock from top to bottom makes us think how far the human being can go when he sets out to achieve one thing when he really wants it
I had the most incredible day exploring the churches with a really informed and professional guide. I learned so much and would definitely do it again. excellent choice!!!
Our guide Ababa is quite the historian of the rock hewn churches and lalabela region, which made for a very immersive and interesting tour experience. Over the course of two days we visited every church and learned about its construction, unique particularities of each and other facts that only a local would be able to provide. Ababa is personable, kind, well spoken with a gentle voice that adds to the reverence of the experience.
Don't try to see Lalibela without a guide! At first I thought I would. I grew up in a religious family so know lots about church symbolism, stories etc and I've travelled a lot, especially in Africa, so not worried about doing things without a guide, in fact, mostly I don't like to have a guide. BUT, for Lalibela, there is just so much to see and discover, so much information you never get from books, pathways and places with the best views, secret entrances, wonderful local information and stories. If you don't have a guide you will miss at least half of everything. So don't miss the opportunity to have a guide. My guide was Daniel from Highland Eco Trekking, an absolute fount of knowledge, very kind and considerate. He made my time in Lalibela unfogettable.
