Ethiopia-1st encounter
Going to visit Ethiopia for the first time. Plan to see northern historic route of Gondar, Simien Mountains, Axum and Lalibela, then head south to Arbra Mich and surrounding Omo Valley to visit with the local tribes, and see 3 market days, concluding with a trip to the Mursi. Bon Voyage, we hope!
