点评:Exploring Ethiopia: A Journey Through Culture and Friendship
From the moment we set foot in Addis Ababa, our adventure with YAMA Ethiopia Tours was destined to be unforgettable. Over the course of eight days, we explored the diverse landscapes, rich traditions, and deep cultural heritage of Southern Omo Valley, encountering stunning natural scenery, remarkable people, and, most importantly, new
friendships that will last a lifetime
A Journey of Culture, Nature, and Connection
Addis Ababa – A Warm Welcome
Our journey began in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia's bustling capital, where we settled into the Jupiter International Hotel. Though brief, our time here allowed us to prepare for the days ahead, soaking in the city's vibrant energy before venturing south.
Jinka – Gateway to Omo Valley
The second day took us to Jinka, a charming town that serves as a gateway to the Omo Valley, home to some of Ethiopia’s most fascinating ethnic groups. Staying at Jinka Resort, we prepared for deeper cultural encounters, eager to meet the people
who have maintained their unique traditions for generations
Turmi – Meeting the Hamar People
From Jinka, we traveled to Turmi, where the Hamar people welcomed us. The stunning landscapes of the region set the stage for immersive experiences with one of Ethiopia's most well-known tribes. Their traditional attire, intricate beadwork, and warm hospitality left a lasting impression. Our stay at Buska Lodge provided a perfect base for exploring this culturally rich region.
Arba Minch – Between Two Lakes
Heading north, we reached Arba Minch, a town nestled between Lake Abaya and Lake Chamo. The lush surroundings and breathtaking vistas made it a perfect place to pause and appreciate nature. We checked into Paradise Lodge, which lived up to its
name with incredible views and a peaceful atmosphere
Yirgalem – A Retreat in the Forest
One of the most magical stops was Yirgalem, where we stayed at Aregash Lodge. The setting was serene, surrounded by dense greenery, and the morning mist created a mystical ambiance. A highlight here was experiencing the Sidama coffee culture, which
showcased Ethiopia’s deep-rooted coffee traditions
Hawassa – Lakeside Serenity
Reaching Hawassa, we settled at Haile Resort, a beautiful lakeside retreat. The scenic views of Lake Hawassa and the vibrant birdlife added a tranquil dimension to the journey. The cool breeze, calm waters, and lush vegetation made this stop feel like a
peaceful escape before returning to the capital

and well taken care of on the road
