Starts in Jinka – Ends in Arba Minch
This immersive 6-day cultural journey takes you deep into Ethiopia’s Omo Valley, one of the most ethnically diverse regions in Africa. Beginning in Jinka and ending in Arba Minch, the tour connects you with nine unique tribes, each with its own language, customs, and ancestral knowledge. Meet the Mursi, known for lip plates and scarification; the Ari, skilled in pottery and distilling; and the artistic Kara, famous for body painting along the Omo River. Venture further to the remote Nyangatom and cross the river to visit the resilient Dassanech. Continue to the peaceful Arbore and the UNESCO-recognized Konso people. The journey ends in the Dorze highlands, known for weaving and bamboo houses, and concludes with a scenic boat trip on Lake Chamo, where crocodiles, hippos, and birdlife fill the waters of the Great Rift Valley.
