Very good, and i was very happy with the guide (Mr Ayele)and the driver… very professional and knoledgeable (speaking of Mr Ayele) on the areas we went. You could tell he was well respected by the locals as well.

The most memorable or exciting part was while in Turmi, we were able to watch the Hamer festivity where the boy marks his passage from boy to adult by jumping the bulls. Not fixed, or touristy. For me, easily the highlight of the trip!

I do feel the locals that live across the river from the Karo people (south of Turmi), are exploiting the tribe. Didn’t get the impression they cared much about them. But we had to pay them in order to see them.
