What are Omo valley interactions like?

Whilst tours to the Omo Valley retain a sense of authenticity, the economics brought about by increased visitor numbers means many villages will have a standard dance, show, or tour that they like to take people on. 

Despite being only tens of kilometers apart, the tribes often feel completely different from one another and so experiences can range from walking through a village as they go about daily life with little structure, a formal ceremony, to a guided tour through fortified walls. Some feel organized, others lose.

The variety is fun and often planned to leave you wondering about the diversity. Almost all villagers are friendly and welcoming, and children will often charm you with their playfulness. 

At Brilliant, we can help you ensure you experience the type of interaction you would like to have, and see the tribes or areas of most interest to you with minimum fuss, or negative impact.
