Desert Tours in Sudan takes one to the dry arid land of the country. Undertaking Desert Tours in Sudan helps one see the various creatures which struggle for existence in the deserts of the country.The Sudan Western Desert comprises the northern Darfur and north-western Kordofan provinces. It is bounded by Egypt in the north and Chad and Libya in the west, and jebel Marra in the south.
A tour to this area exposes one to animals like the addax, scimitar or white oryx, dama gazelle, barbary sheep, and even the rhim or the Loder’s gazelle. The best time to tour this region is December, January and February. This is because these are the coolest months of the year. Most of the desert country in Sudan can be traversed in specially equipped four-wheel-drive safari cars. The cars should be followed by a four-wheel-drive truck, fitted with balloon tires, for carrying enough fuel, water, equipment, staff and food supply. A tour which includes a hunting expedition to the desert area takes about three weeks.
Desert safari to the western desert usually starts from El Fasher.Another fascinating desert area in Sudan is the vast Nubian Desert. It lies to the west of the Red Sea Hills, to the river Nile, and from the Atbara River in the south to the border with Egypt in the north. This flat desert has miles of rolling sand dunes and rock formations with wadis in between. Here there are some mounds of grass and trees. A tour through this area enables one spot animal like barbery sheep, Eritrean gazelle and in some high mountains a few Nubian ibex.
A tour to the Nubian Desert specifically for the purpose of hunting requires at least 7 to 10 days.
A combined safari in the Red Sea Hills and Nubian Desert would require a minimum 16 days safari. Close to the Red Sea, in north-eastern Sudan, there lies a range of mountains called the Red Sea Hills. These hills form a rugged but wonderful landscape in the world. Rocks, cliffs and ravines with little vegetation except in the deep crevices are part of the terrain. The tallest mountain in the Red Sea Hills is Jebel Oda, with an attitude of 7,412 feet. Animals that may be found here include Eritrean Gazelle, Salt's dik-dik, Klipspringer, Hamadryad Baboon and at times a leopard and warthog.
