Have a boat trip on Lake Tana. On Lake Tana, there are 37 islands and 32 of them have churches and monasteries of considerable historical and cultural interest. We visit the monastery church of Ura Kidane Mihret, which is the most well known and has an important collection of religious icons from the 16th to 18th centuries A.D.

In the afternoon we drive to the Blue Nile Falls, which are known locally as Tissisat which means 'smoking waterfall'. The waterfall is 100 m (328 ft) wide and the water plunges down 45m, giving rise to steam clouds and rainbows.

Early in the afternoon we drive back to Bahir Dar and finish the day with a lovely sunset over Lake Tana.
