Best for: More pyramids than Egypt, standing in open desert with nobody else there
Sudan in 8 days: Meroë, Jebel Barkal and the pyramids nobody goes to — and the war that closed them
Khartoum → Meroë → Naqa and Musawwarat → Karima → Jebel Barkal → Khartoum
Around two hundred steep-sided pyramids built by the kings and queens of Kush, a holy mountain the pharaohs claimed as the birthplace of Amun, and a Sufi gathering that fills a graveyard every Friday — in a country that has been at war with itself since April 2023.
