Overview
On this short trip we visit some the key sites of the incredible ancient civilisations of Sudan, spending time at the ancient monuments and pyramids around Jebel Barkal, visiting the stunning Royal Necropolis at Meroe and the impressive sites of Naqa and Musawwarat.
We cross foreboding desert landscapes, and hope to meet families of local nomads en route, as well as stopping at Nubian villages to meet friendly inhabitants. There is also the option to extend the tour by 3 days to the Third Cataract area and the Temple of Soleb and spend two overnights in simple but typical private Nubian houses.
This is an ideal trip for those wishing to visit some of Sudan’s key archaeological highlights in a short space of time.
