land of the black pharaohs
It was truly amazing. Rounds out one's knowledge and view of Egyptian culture and history while enlightening one about Sudan's culture and history.

Very helpful. Khalid went above and beyond to accommodate a special request and his knowledge of English language was excellent. Carla went above and beyond assisting with flight rebooking when Turkish cancelled a number of flights due to weathering Istanbul; I had not even booked my flight with the tour operator. Very appreciated.
Thank you for your feedback. We are delighted that you enjoyed Sudan and we will pass on your compliments to the team in Sudan.

Thank you for the kind feedback.





Expensive desert driving.
Being based in pretty much only 2 places it meant a lot of to and fro ing which I do not enjoy and wastes fuel and hence money. I would have prefered the camping trip which I found out about later that was not offered by the agent.

Italian Tourism Company obviously knows the Sudan very well. But almost has a monopoly making things rather espensive.
I am sorry that you felt that the tour can only be summarised as expensive desert driving. In addition to driving in the desert the tour also includes many wonderful and unique archaeological sites all which can be accessed from Karima and Meroe which is why in addition to Khartoum,the overnight stays are situated in these places. Back in August you asked to change your tour from Eritrea to Sudan. The Eritrea tour you were originally booked on did not have any camping involved in it so we have assumed you would want to change to a similar style of tour with a similar duration which is why you were offered the Black Pharaohs tour which you subsequently booked. We apologise that an apparent incorrect assumption has been made.
I'm afraid Sudan is an expensive country to travel in. Vehicle and fuel costs in particular are very high.





excellent expedition through remote areas of the Sahara Desert in Chad
camping out under the stars in the desert. 22 days of remote wilderness travel across varied desert landscapes: over gravel plains, through dry wadis, past natural sandstone sculptures, up and over sand dunes & across lava plains past volcanoes. On the way we drop in at palmeries and villages to say hello and collect water from the wells.

A tour that got us to places normally unseen by visitors
This was a challenging tour of three countries. Days were long but the high spots were worth it. At the Millet festival we watched the Chiefs paraded in their palanquins; at the 42 day ceremony, we spoke to the Ashanti king and shook his hand; and we joined villagers at a voodoo ceremony where three women were possessed by spirits. Not for the faint hearted maybe, but a brilliant experience.

Sudan
Fantastic trip yet again showing that people should not be judged by politics. Well balanced trip highlighting the countries ancient past and culture. Accommodation, meals and transport are all excellent standards.

Just perfect
Our trip was a tailor made holiday for 2 couples to Madagascar. Our travel consultant listened carefully to what we wanted from the trip and advised us as we liaised to build the itinerary. Once in Madagascar the service was excellent. We chose to take a driver and local guides where required. This worked perfectly with good communication and very friendly and professional service. All accommodation was well chosen using various standards ...

Not sure who this is. Undiscovered Destinations (UK) or NTT (Oman). Both very good
Thanks for your comments and we are delighted you enjoyed your time in Oman.
