The Blue Nile Falls, known locally as Tis Issat (“Smoking Water”), are located approximately 30 kilometres southeast of Bahir Dar (๐6,500 ETB, guide 1,500 ETB, ๐ข200 ETB, ๐๏ธ200 ETB). These falls are formed where the Blue Nile River plunges about 45 meters into a deep gorge...
Hike to Choma Waterfalls, located in the Uluguru Mountains, near Mikumi National Park above the town of Morogoro, is one of the most popular hikes in the mountain range. It was a refreshing escape from dusty town into lush greenery, to cascading waters and serene pools. The waterfall is...
We have realized that we could not manage it in Kampala today. So we have decided to overnight next to the perfect Bannz Grill, just a few kilometers from the Sezibwa Falls (๐๏ธ20000 UGX, tip for guide 5000 UGX). After a lovely breakfast in Bannz Grill in the morning, we took a local boda...

This waterfall belongs to the many waterfalls that appear during the monsoon period. The source of the fall is located in the highest mountain at Wadi Jardum. It was not accessible by our truck, so for the last 2,5 kilometers, we walked in the dry river belt. It really appears only from...
We took Ittin Road to spend the night next to one of the most visited springs flowing from Salalah’s foothills. Ain Garziz often has a generous flow of water collecting at the bottom of the knotted cliffs. However, it’s an exciting site with stunted fig trees and limestone...
Wadi Nahiz is about 31 km drive from Dhareez Beach in Salalah. It remains off the radar for most of the tourists, and that was why we decided to explore the valley. There is a steep descent for about a 10-minute drive from the top to the bottom of the valley. We parked 200 meters behind...
