Ethiopia's "cultural museum," home to the Hamer, Mursi & Karo peoples.
Ethiopia is home to more than 80 distinct ethnic groups, and nowhere is that diversity more vivid than on our cultural tours. Meet the Hamer, Mursi, and Karo peoples of the Omo Valley, whose body painting and traditions have remained largely unchanged for generations. Walk the centuries-old stone terraces of Konso, a UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscape, climb to Gheralta's cliffside monasteries, and wander the vibrant markets and walled alleyways of Harar. These tours are an invitation into living traditions, not museum pieces.
