Sudan

Sudan is a vast, arid country where the Sahara gives way to the Nile's green corridors and the semi-arid Sahel stretches toward the south. Ancient pyramids rise from desert sands with little ceremony, and daily life along the river moves at a pace shaped by heat and tradition. It is one of the least-visited countries in Africa, and that fact alone defines the traveller's experience here.
