Spend four hours with our local English speaking guides as they proudly introduce you to daily life in Arba Minch. The popular walking tour starts at the Tourist Hotel with a quick Amharic language lesson and then weaves through Sikela, the down town part of Arba Minch. Along the way, you will visit an Orthodox Church, pop into a tej bar where you can try the local honey drink, see a traditional buna bet (coffee house) and buy stamps at the post office. At the colourful market, your senses will be tantalised by the aromas from the spices and coffee; feel the quality fabrics, including the striking Gamo tribe design and see the wide variety of traditional produce. The tour will conclude with a quick stop at the shoe shine and a traditional coffee ceremony in a family home. This ceremony is an integral part of Ethiopian social and cultural life and an invitation to attend one is considered a mark of friendship.
