Highlights

Tribes of the Omo Valley The lower Omo Valley of southern Ethiopia is home to some of the world’s last unchanged cultural groups. The area is a melting pot of cultures and communities and represents some of the greatest genetic variance on the continent. Many describe the Omo as being the birthplace of mankind. It’s not hard to see why. The journey down the west bank of the Omo River is a private road and boat expedition which starts in the capital Addis Ababa. You then drive south via Jimma and through the coffee plantations before descending into the Omo valley. A 3 day trek into the Surma Highlands is a most unusual journey and explores some of the areas remotest corners and villages. The Surma are close relatives of the Mursi, whose women wear clay lip plates in their lower lip. Additionally, The Dorze tribe is a small community primarily residing in a village located in close proximity to the city of Arbaminch, Ethiopia. Situated in a mountainous region.

About Addis Ababa

Addis Ababa, Ethiopia's capital, stands high on a plateau among eucalyptus-covered hills, with museums, markets, churches and African Union offices.

At around 2,400 metres, Addis Ababa is one of the highest capitals in the world, laid out on the slopes of the Entoto hills. The National Museum of Ethiopia tells the story of human origins through Lucy, a 3.2-million-year-old partial skeleton found in the country in 1974, while the Ethnological Museum is housed in a former imperial palace. Holy Trinity Cathedral and Saint George Cathedral are important churches, and Meskel Square hosts large gatherings.
