Ethoipia Travel Guide

Travel to a place land-locked in time.

As the first country I visited in Africa, this has a special place in my heart.  Located in the Horn of Africa, they lay claim to being the only country in the continent to have not been colonized by a European power.  The coffee here is delicious, Omo Valley visceral and a fascinating education, and a landscape to die for.

This Ethiopia travel guide will help you plan your next vacation.
