Reisroute
Het is een van de oude en historische klooster in Ethiopië, dat ligt op het noordwesten van Addis Abeba. Het klooster werd in de 13e eeuw gesticht door de heilige Tekle Haymanot, volgens de overlevering; hij mediteerde 29 jaar in een grot. Het kloostercomplex ligt op een terras tussen een klif en de kloof van een van de zijrivieren van de Abbay-rivier. Geen van de oorspronkelijke gebouwen van Debre Libanos heeft het overleefd, hoewel David Buxton vermoedde dat "er nog interessante dingen te vinden zijn tussen de naburige kliffen." Tot de huidige gebouwen behoren de kerk boven het graf van Tekle Haymanot, die keizer Haile Selassie in 1961 liet bouwen; een iets oudere Church of the Cross, waar Buxton werd verteld dat een fragment van het True Cross bewaard is gebleven; en vijf religieuze scholen.
Portugese brug in de buurt van Debre Libanos werd gebouwd door de Portugezen in de 16e eeuw; het werd eigenlijk gebouwd aan het begin van de 19e eeuw door Ethiopiërs, zij het in de oude Portugese stijl. De smalle overspanning maakt een mooi beeld en de stromende (in het regenseizoen) cascade net eronder is nog indrukwekkender
Jemma River in een grote kloof naast Debre Libanos en Fiche. De Jemma sluit zich aan bij de Wenchit voordat hij de rivier de Abbay (Blauwe Nijl) bereikt. Jemma Valley en het omliggende gebied staan bekend om de vogelspottochten. Het belangrijkste doel voor vogelaars is de endemische en bereik beperkte Harwood's Francolin en andere mogelijk te herkennen zijn; Banded Barbet, de Black-headed Forest Oriole, de White-billed Starling, de Red-billed Starling, de White-winged Cliff Chat, de White-backed Black Tit, de White-cheeked Turaco en Hemprich's Hornbill. Je zult ook een van de endemische zoogdieren van Ethiopië zien, de Gelada of bloedende baviaan. (In de kloof zullen we een verscheidenheid aan gieren zien - de gieren van Lamergeyer, Ruppell en Lappet werden geconfronteerd.)

Very fun experience! Outside of the initial cost, there was no admission fee to be had. It turned out to be an all day trip, which the listing said upfront. Our guide, Barch, and all the other guides were very friendly and hospitable. The monastery had a decent crowd since our tour was right before their Mass started, though inside did not have anyone else aside from the Monk guiding us. The weather was perfect for the rest of the trip as well; bright and sunny, perfect for our hike to see the baboons and the Portuguese Bridge. If you're interested in history and love hiking, it's a perfect tour for you!

I highly recommend this tour company for anyone planning to visit Ethiopia. The overall organization was highly professional, and my itinerary went perfectly smoothly. A special shoutout to my guide, Yihun, and my driver, Niko. They were an absolutely fantastic team and took excellent care of me from start to finish! Yihun is incredibly knowledgeable; he explained the deep and complex history of Ethiopia in a way that was both easy to understand and engaging. Niko is an excellent and careful driver, navigating the roads expertly while ensuring I was comfortable at all times. Most importantly, traveling alone in Ethiopia can seem challenging, but having Yihun and Niko with me made me feel 100% safe and secure throughout the entire trip. If you are coming to Ethiopia, I highly recommend booking with this company and specifically requesting Yihun as your guide and Niko as your driver. You will be in great hands!

Had a great time! Amazing views and our guide Abe was great and very knowledgeable! The lunch was also delicious and had an amazing view. The only think I would have liked was to stop at Entoto to see the view on the way back.
Abi and Abe were wonderful guides to the monastery and the Portuguese bridge. They were friendly and welcoming, the ride was comfortable and they answered all our questions. The tour even includes added local guides who were knowledgeable and helpful. The lunch is at a lovely spot with an amazing view of the canyon. Just a note that it is a long drive - no fault to the guides - but if you’re not used to being in a car for long periods of time, this is a heads-up!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us.

The staff was very nice and we had a good conversation about Ethiopian history with the tour guide. Also, it is a good opportunity to explore the rural area outside the capital in Ethiopia.
Dagi and driver George treated me to a wonderful day trip to the Debre Libanos monastery and nearby sights. Fantastic tour. Wonderful Ethiopian hospitality. Highly recommended!
The tour was great, they picked us up from hotel and the drive was smooth. The guides (abe and george) knew all the history of ethiopia and could provide context everywhere we went. Very friendly people and would recommend to everyone!
Thank you very much for sharing your experience with us. We’re glad to hear everything went smoothly from the hotel pickup to the end of the tour. It’s always our goal to make the journey comfortable and well organized from start to finish. Your kind words about Abe and George mean a lot. We’re proud to have guides who truly understand Ethiopia’s history and can explain it in a clear and engaging way while keeping the experience friendly and enjoyable. Thank you again for your recommendation. We truly appreciate it and hope to welcome you back for another journey in Ethiopia. Warm regards, Aman Ethiopia Tours and Travel
A really great trip that will be a highlight of my time in Addis Ababa. Dagi was a great guide who made sure everything ran smoothly and answered any questions we had. We got to see all the highlights, including the monastery and geladas, but the long-ish drive each way was a real insight into how many millions of Ethiopians live their lives, an experience that was really valuable to my overall trip and that I would not have gotten were it not for this tour taking me outside the Addis city centre.
