The Nile Valley occupies less than 10% of Egypt, so it's a great shame not to experience the amazing desert scenery while you are here beyond the Nile Valley there is still much to see. On this comprehensive trip to Egypt we travel through the heart of the Western Desert, a vast, isolated expanse covering a total of some 2.8 million square kilometres, visiting the various Oasis towns on our route. We explore this untamed wilderness in the company of our Bedouin companions, enjoying a memorable insight into their traditions and experiencing their amazing hospitality.

In between, we meet up with our Nubian friends, based in Aswan. Taller and darker than their northern Egyptian 'brothers' they are a genuinely friendly race of people, with a great sense of humour and a rhythmic musical tradition which smacks more of Africa than it does of the Middle East. We join them for 1 days as we sail down the Nile on their traditional felucca sailboats .

This is a long tour, with several hard days of travel, but it is also an outstanding itinerary if you want to experience all facets of Egypt. Taken in the right spirit you'll have a memorable journey.
