About this experience
Addis Ababa sight seeing from 4th century AD rock-hewn semi-monolithic church. It may be an hour hike up hill from Yeka Mikael church in Addis Ababa, but the semi-monolithic Washa Mikael (literally, St. Mikael’s cave) is well worth the efforts. Watching a sunken 1600 year old structure, entirely carved from a single slab of stone within such a short distance from Addis is sure to impress. The path is gentle at the start but gets tougher as you go up and after about fifty minutes you reach the level and it is a gentle stroll past a couple of villages to the church. The conceptof the church is the same as the Lalibela’s rock-hewn churches. After visiting the church we will be climbing to Melata Gara or Bold hill at Yeka mountain. An easy and very good short hiking to enjoy sightseeing of Addis Ababa. Give it a try, it is still a lovely place. We have it on good authority the views on the way down from are pretty. 8687 ft max elevation 8202 ft min elevation

Addis sight seeing tour from 4th century AD rock-hewn semi-monolithic church: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Addis Ababa.
How much does Addis sight seeing tour from 4th century AD rock-hewn semi-monolithic church cost?
+
Prices start at $190 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Addis Ababa usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Addis sight seeing tour from 4th century AD rock-hewn semi-monolithic church take?
+
Plan for about 24 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Addis Ababa is not rushed.
Is Addis sight seeing tour from 4th century AD rock-hewn semi-monolithic church worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Addis Ababa, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Addis sight seeing tour from 4th century AD rock-hewn semi-monolithic church?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Addis sight seeing tour from 4th century AD rock-hewn semi-monolithic church suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 24-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Addis sight seeing tour from 4th century AD rock-hewn semi-monolithic church?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Addis Ababa can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Addis Ababa and add a light layer if any part of the 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Addis sight seeing tour from 4th century AD rock-hewn semi-monolithic church start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Addis Ababa within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Addis Ababa?
+

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Addis Ababa?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Addis Ababa?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
