2-day Bahir Dar Adventure - It was fun discovering Bahir Dar in two days. My private tour with Ethio Target Tour and Travel squeezed in everything and more. We started with enjoying the rich Ethiopian coffee ceremony, smelling the freshly roasted coffee beans and sipping it in a smoke-filled room as part of the traditional coffee ceremony, thereafter a presumptuous lunch, fish dullet and firfir with the world-famous injera treat for my family. Then dove headfirst into the vibrant Bahir Dar market to taste white honey and get the live feeling of the Ethiopian cultural clothes. The colors, the energy – it was a feast for the senses! Next day, we embarked on a boat trip on Lake Tana, visiting ancient monasteries that whispered stories of Ethiopia's rich history. The highlight? Witnessing the awe-inspiring Blue Nile Falls, locally called "Smoking Water." The power and beauty of the cascading water left me speechless. This perfectly paced 2-day adventure was a fantastic way to experience the cultural and natural wonders of Bahir Dar. Big thanks Abebe for his rich knowledge of Bahirdar and Habeshan culture and Solomon for your great coordination. Lastly, Ethio Target for their expertise and for making everything so seamless!
