Cairo To Addis Ababa (38 Days) Nile Trans (Nt38)

This overland tour begins in North Africa's Egypt, and travels down through Sudan and Ethiopia. These countries are all historically and culturally rich, and incredibly geographically diverse - making for an unforgettable trip. The unique historical sites of Egypt need very little introduction, but fewer people know about the coral reefs of the Red Sea, the deserts of Sudan and the Ethiopian highlands (Africa's largest mountain range). All of these will be incorporated into your overland tour. This overland adventure takes in major exotic-sounding cities, like Khartoum and gets well off the beaten track in between. Oasis uses roomy three-person tents but only for two people. They are specially made for us to meet the tougher conditions of an overland trip and have mosquito netting sewn into the door and windows. Tents are shared (between two people of the same sex from your group unless you are a couple). We spend some nights bush or desert camping and the rest of the time in campsites. Facilities and standards at campsites vary, some are well equipped and managed and some are very basic. At bush camps you will be living off the truck, so there will be no showers or en-suite facilities! At certain campsites there is the opportunity to upgrade to a private room at your own expense if you are missing your bed.
