Tourist looking at Las Geel rock-art, Somaliland, Somalia


Hargeisa(ANN)-The Horn of Africa is home to three of the most interesting and under-visited countries on the continent — Eritrea, Djibouti, and Somaliland. Overshadowed by Ethiopia and its tourist-mecca neighbor, Kenya, the Horn countries don’t get many tourists, and there are good reasons why.

Hire a guide, driver, and obligatory armed guard and set out through the desert for a series of caves housing the oldest rock art in East Africa.
