If there is any other area in Ethiopia that can rival the majesty of the North's historical circuit, it's the people and culture of southern Ethiopia's Lower Omo Valley. These traditional villages are home to some of Africa’s most fascinating and colourful ethnic tribes. The famous Kara body painters, the bull jumping Hamer people and the Mursi with their mind-blowing lip plates are just a few of the tribes to visit in the Omo.
