All about the Omo Valley Tribal Tour – 6 Days.

Omo Valley region is one of the most remote parts of this incredible country. Omo Valley is located in the Southern part of Ethiopia, this distant region feels like a world away from Northern Ethiopia – with a rural and tropical feel, it was more reminiscent of sub-Saharan Africa than anywhere else in the country. In this Unique place of the country, multiple and strong indigenous cultures co-exist. On this cultural tour, you have the opportunities to visit various busy local markets, different ethnic groups with different customs, rites, rituals, architecture, and dress, a raw and fresh natural world, and the special “Bull-Jumping” ceremony, in which a Hummer’s boy will be transferred into Adulthood.
