The third largest country in Africa is home to huge swathes of desert and more pyramids than Egypt
There is a place where the sweeping hills of desert sand stretch out beyond the horizon, where the Blue and White Nile join before meandering over cataracts, where there are more pyramids than in Egypt and where welcoming hospitality is simply a way of life. This is Sudan.
On our Sudan holidays, you can travel off the beaten path in the Western and Nubian Deserts, camp under the Sahara night sky, get up close to the pyramids and explore the ancient temples of the Black Pharaohs. The Sudanese often describe their homeland as the whole of Africa in one country, because there is so much to see and do. At Exodus, we've packed our Sudan tours with the best the country has to offer, so there's something for every type of intrepid traveller.
“Driving out into the Sahara for three days in a really unexplored part of the world is a proper adventure. You may even have to get out and help push! But it’s worth it when you're camping in the wilds, miles away from any light pollution so the sky and stars are incredible. We also visit temples and pyramids. Not many people know that the pharaohs went all the way down into Nubia, and the Sahara actually has more pyramids than Egypt. The Nubian villages are very colourful and traditional, and there’s a wonderful contrast between the raw desert beauty and these ancient cultures. Here we experience local culture and attend a Whirling Dervish trance session.”
