The third largest city and first stop on the historic circuit in Ethiopia is Bahar Dar.

​

The vibe in the town is relaxed and the nearby lake and monasteries only add to this.

​

If you haven’t spent time lounging by the lake, then you haven’t had the real Bahar Dar experience.

​

You’ll marvel at the tankwa canoe, a seemingly flimsy vessels made out of woven papyrus which are absolutely unsinkable.
