Experience Ethiopia’s spiritual crown jewel with Dejene Ethiopia Tours on an immersive journey into Lalibela — a living pilgrimage center famed for its rock-hewn sanctuaries. Carved directly into volcanic bedrock during the medieval era, these architectural marvels remain active places of worship and devotion.

Walk through hidden tunnels, carved passageways, and sunken courtyards linking sacred spaces filled with icons and ancient symbolism. Expert guides illuminate the historical vision behind the churches — conceived as a symbolic New Jerusalem — while travelers witness rituals and traditions that continue unchanged for centuries.

Optional excursions elevate the experience: ascend mountain paths to Asheton Maryam Monastery for sweeping highland views, or journey to the cave-built Yemrehanna Kristos Church, a masterpiece predating Lalibela’s famous complex.

Balanced between heritage discovery, spiritual atmosphere, and cultural encounters, this journey offers a profound connection to Ethiopia’s sacred past and vibrant present.
