TUKUL VILLAGE, LALIBELA

TUKUL VILLAGE

TRADITIONALLY-INSPIRED

Tukul Village offers a distinctive collection of traditionally-inspired, two storey circular houses. And even more amazing buildings lie just a few minutes’ walk away.

From its prominent position you can see the horizon framed by dark blue mountains. Tear yourself away from the view and you can experience even more jaw-dropping sights. From Tukul Village you can walk to the Church of Saint George, perhaps the most astonishing of all Lalibela’s historic churches.

As you approach you cannot believe the size of the cruciform structure that has been carved down into the solid rock hillside – it’s only the minute figures of people standing on the edge of the great crater that give you an idea of scale. Faith may move mountains, but man made this huge excavation. And that’s the thing about Lalibela – the more you see the more wonderful it becomes. So include it in your tailor-made holiday to Ethiopia.

“FAULTLESS AND FUN”
We’ve just returned from a Danube cruise with Douglas Skeggs and Joanna Worsley, with a few days in Vienna beforehand – all brilliantly overseen by Emily. From meet and greet at the airport to every detail on board the Amadeus Cara, the organisation was seamless. We’re already looking forward to our next Escorted Tour with The Ultimate Travel Company.

“SERVICE THAT GOES THE EXTRA MILE”

The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.

“SEAMLESSLY ORGANISED, TRULY UNFORGETTABLE”
The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!
