Nile Trans Northbound - AFME1R
Introduction: An epic journey which takes us overland from Nairobi and the game parks of Kenya to the ancient civilisations of Egypt. Starting in the busting capital of Nairobi, we head out past Mt. Kenya to Samburu National Park. In northern Kenya there is the option for a camel safari around the lush highland area of Marsabit, before we cross into Ethiopia. Ethiopia is a stunning and fascinating country offering chances to see the tribes of the Omo Valley, waterfalls, gorges, churches carved into the mountains and monasteries. In Sudan we see the capital Khartoum and the Pyramids of Meroe before our journey continues by ferry across Lake Nasser and into Egypt. Here we sail along the Nile by felucca, and explore the temples of the Pharaohs in Luxor and Aswan. before crossing the Western Desert to Cairo, and the end of our adventure.
