SOUTHERN OMO VALLEY TRIBES 6 DAYS TRIP
Home > Tours > South Route > SOUTHERN OMO VALLEY TRIBES 6 DAYS TRIP

On Kenya’s northern border with Ethiopia lies Lake Turkana – also known as the Jade Sea. Linking to the Omo River, and into the lower Omo basin of Ethiopia, a journey into the Omo basin is a kaleidoscope of culture, tradition and terrain.

The concentration of experience and variety, often so juxtaposed to your own daily life, forces you to reflect on what it means to be human in today’s world.

The Lower Omo Valley region has been as UNESCO World Heritage Site since the discovery of human remains dating back nearly 2.5 million years.

As you explore the region, you’ll discover fortified hilltop settlements, terraced fields, anthropomorphic grave-markers, and rock engravings dating back 5000 years.

The Omo also has some beautiful landscapes; Nech Sar National Park frames much of the region with mountains, lakes and forests, and harbours 70-plus mammal species, as well as prodigious crocodiles and the endemic Nechisar nightjar – the latter arguably the world’s rarest bird..
