Transfer from Addis Ababa Airport to Holy Trinity Cathedral

The journey from Addis Ababa Airport to the stunning Holy Trinity Cathedral spans about 10 kilometers, winding through the dynamic streets of the city. As you leave the airport, you'll pass through Bole and glimpse local neighborhoods filled with colorful shops and vendors. The route is straightforward, progressing along Africa Avenue, where urban life unfolds—watch for traditional coffee houses and vendors selling fresh produce.

For those unfamiliar with Addis Ababa, timing is everything. The morning rush hour, particularly between 7:30 AM and 9:30 AM, can present heavy traffic.

Always confirm your driver’s identity before departing.
