Ethiopia’s Omo Valley is one of the most culturally diverse regions in all of Africa; a land where tribal traditions still take precedent over anything else. On this Ethiopian tour you will meet some of the more remote ethnic groups of the areas surrounding the Omo River in South West Ethiopia. This unique trip begins with a journey through the ancient coffee land and then continues to Suri territory known for a strong adherence to their culture and traditions, before descending into the remote Omo National Park to commence a 4-day exploration along the river. This is not an easy journey and with some basic conditions, it will be a journey to challenge the senses. Accompanied by expert guides, you will learn about the varied ethnic groups who inhabit the region. From the Suri, renowned for the donga stick fighting, the Nyangatom famous for body scarifications to the Hamer famous for their bull jumping coming of age ceremony. This is a journey of a life time.
