Sudan is a land of culture, beauty, history and hospitable people. Also known as the ‘other Egypt’, throughout history it has been a transit area between the Mediterranean and Egypt and a mysterious black continent to the south. This is a destination for the intrepid and imaginative traveller. From endless desert and real camel caravans to red sea diving and colourful markets with few other travellers.

Sudan is home to some 150 ethnic groups and has more ancient pyramids than Egypt! Roads are mainly unpaved and rough with many desert tracks. Infrastructure is limited after years of instability and many areas are still out of bounds to travellers. Northern Sudan, however, is a different story. The magical River Nile snakes a course north, criss-crossing the Sahara desert, from Khartoum to the lands of Nubia. Along the Nile valley lie archaeological sites of ancient Egyptian and Meroitic civilizations, many not fully excavated.
