Highlights
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.
Itinerary
Day 1: Fly Addis Ababa – Jinka (BCO) – Drive to Mursi Village
Mago National Park
6 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeIf you arrive in Jinka in the morning or before noon, we’ll begin your adventure with a drive into Mago National Park to visit the Mursi tribe — one of the Omo Valley’s most well-known and visually striking communities. The Mursi are famous for their lip plates, body scarification, and bold cultural expressions, offering a powerful introduction to the region’s tribal diversity. After spending the morning with the Mursi, we return to Jinka by midday for a relaxed lunch and a chance to refresh.
