This is the most popular route for those visiting Ethiopia - the ‘Cradle of Mankind’. See a range of fabulous constructions, such as the enchanting castles in Gondar and the incredible rock-hewn churches of Lalibela (one of the Eighth Wonders of the World). Be amazed by the thundering Blue Nile Falls (this is actually during the rainy season) and enjoy a boat trip on the splendid Lake Tana for island monasteries. Aside from the awe inspiring constructions at each of these sites, you’ll be able to take in a fine blend of scenic delights, natural history and you’ll get to know the charming Ethiopian people.
It would be facile to portray South Omo as some kind of living Museum. Four of Africa's major linguistic groups are represented in the region, including the Omotic-speakers. All in all, depending on where one draws the lines, as many as two dozen different tribes occupy South Omo, some numbering tens of thousands, others no more than 500, each one of them culturally unique. In addition, you cross the part of the Great Rift Valley which is endowed with the abundant wildlife. This is the itinerary for adventure lovers as you will drive through the off-roads and staying in bushes.
Camping in the remote part of the world (Omo Valley) is a life time memorable experience wondering the spectacular natural beautify.
