You see guys in the desert walking their goats, local villagers, mud brick houses. Everyone wants to wave to you and say hello. I took pens and gave them to the kids. They really enjoyed that.

Visit Meroë: The Mysterious Pyramids of Sudan

Then you drive in your jeep between temple complexes, pyramids, ancient cities. I kept wondering: "Why build temples in the middle of the desert? You'd build them close to water? You can really explore, you can go right inside the pyramids. They're much smaller then the ones in Egypt. There aren't queues everywhere and it's in the middle of nowhere.

The pyramids in Sudan: A historical introduction

That's what is quite exciting about it. The pyramid cemetery at Meroe is the largest, they're all black pyramids, dozens of them. We camped there. I don't know. One thing I would say about Sudan is that there aren't a lot of local guides, and the guides there are don't have much knowledge about the temples.

So you need to take a really good guide book with you. As you're driving towards it you see nothing, it's totally flat and then out of nowhere you get this giant rock. And it's a very sacred thing. There are pyramids next to it and you can climb up them and watch sunset. It really was something special. Jebel Barkal is a very small mountain, about feet tall, located miles north of Khartoum, in Karima town in Northern State in Sudan, on a large bend of the Nile River, in the region called Nubia.

What was it like to camp in the Sudanese desert? We went with a local tour company into the desert, and because of the sanctions, and stuff like that, they don't have good quality camping equipment. We were staying in the sort of pop-up tents you'd play in your garden with. It gets quite cold and windy at night -- we woke up one morning and some of the tents were a bit flattened.

It's very rough and ready. Your friends told you you were "nuts" to holiday in Sudan.
