Travel Tips from people who've been to Gonder
Try arranging a short hike in the Simien Mountains to visit the endemic Gelada Babboon. Unlike other babboons, the Gelada has a bald spot on the chest which is quite practical, as it spends most of his time sitting. It is one of the rarest primates on the planet, but it is actually quite easy to spot. They congregate in groups of ten or more and getting in touch with them involves only an hour or two walking.

Pay a visit to Dashen Brewery, a couple of km outside Gonder. It is easily reachable by cheap local taxi (arrange for the driver to come pick you up when you've had enough!) The guided tour of the brewery is free of charge and the beer is excellent and cheap! (5birr a pint)

Lots of castles in Gondar, it is cold here though as is much of Ethiopia.  One of my favorite cities in Africa though
