Al Ubayyid General Tips by uglyscot

Favorite Thing: I am fascinated by camels. They look so ungainly and supercilious. They are said to be capable of being mean or bad tempered. But there is something romantic about a herd of camels walking through the desert. Sudan was known, still is probably, for the camel caravans that took 40 days to reach Cairo carrying trade goods. The camels used a well marked route called the Darb el Arbain -the 40 days route.
Apparently in the Western Omdurman Desert , 50 km west of Omdurman overnight camping trips can be arranged.
In Kordofan camels are still a common means of transport, and after the rainy season when pasture is available the camels are fit and healthy.
