About

Local guide from Jinka, South Omo.

My name is Matusala. I was born and raised in Jinka, the town at the top of the Omo Valley, and I know the families and communities we visit.

I take travellers to the villages, the weekly markets and the ceremonies of South Omo. I speak English and Amharic, and also Hamer and Banna, which means you can talk with the people you meet. Outside the Omo, I guide all over Ethiopia: Lalibela, Gheralta, the Danakil and Harar.

We go by car or by motorbike, depending on the road and your budget. Tell me what you would like to see and how many days you have, and I will plan the route.
