Your Travel Experience Package Includes:

Whether you purchase the Main Tour or the Main Tour and Pre-Tour together, our cost includes accommodations, all meals, all land transportation, teachings, taxes, and basic tips. We have an air package that includes all the in-country air that originates from and terminates at the Washington-Dulles airport in Washington, D.C. You are also welcome to book your own airfare. If you purchase your own airfare, you will need to purchase domestic air travel within Ethiopia (approximately $748 per person) the add-on pricing can be viewed below) to ensure you are traveling with the group. (If you purchase our International airfare package, the pricing includes the domestic Ethiopian Air flights.) We offer a single supplement, which is only paid for by those individuals who want a room for one person (no roommate or spouse).


Traveling Single:

We match roommates! If you are a single person or traveling alone, we do have others who would like to travel with us without paying the single supplement. We assign roommates approximately 2 weeks prior to departure. We cannot guarantee it, but it has worked well for many.


Please note:

  • There is a credit card price and a discounted price when paying cash/check for the cruise. You may, if you wish, make your deposit and insurance premium payment by credit card and pay the balance by check. If you choose to do this, we will apply the cash discount to your full cost.
  • Transfers are not included unless you are taking our optional air program. If you make your own flight arrangements or book outside of the optional group air, you will be responsible for obtaining your transfer to and from our starting and ending destinations
