Trip Overview
In southern Ethiopia you will find the hidden wonders of the Omo Valley. This remote area, where Kenya, Ethiopia and Sudan meet, you will find a mingling of ancient and established African tribes who have all maintained their individuality. Fascinating in their practices ranging from giant lip plates and intricate body scarification, the people of the Omo are unique.
However at Steppes Travel we understand that great interest lies in cultures so different to us. Therefore this journey is an opportunity to meet fascinating tribes and not just look at them through a lens. An expedition to the Omo Valley with Steppes Travel is one where we encourage interaction and a meeting of minds, a mutually beneficial encounter and a feeling of privilege. Of course there is much more to see in the Omo including the birdlife, the environment and the beauty.
This journey idea takes you into the heart of the Valley to meet the most prevalent inhabitants. We can also arrange for you to travel west of the Omo River to meet people in more remote areas and perhaps witness some of the stunning wildlife which is still to be found there.
