Visit some of Africa's last indigenous tribes including the Mursi (famous for lip plates) and Hamer people in one of the world's most culturally diverse regions. This sensitive cultural experience requires a knowledgeable guide and respectful approach, but offers rare insight into traditional ways of life that have persisted for centuries. Photography requires permission and often small payments to individuals.
