Eritrea holidays
For such a small and overlooked nation, Eritrea is surprisingly diverse. Eritrea holidays let you discover the Italian legacy, with Asmara's colonial architecture, a steam train and cappuccinos - set against an exotic backdrop of African highlands, the Filfil rainforest, blinding desert and the Arabic port of Massawa. Discover camel markets, ruins of the 2,000-year-old Axumite civilisation and orange and coffee groves - Eritrea is one huge surprise.
