About this experience
This excursion is not like standard programs: we go where the colors of the desert are the brightest, and the rock ornaments are mind-blowing. You will decipher hieroglyphs, see mysterious dolmens, and taste authentic Bedouin dishes for lunch. Along the way, our guide will reveal the secrets of ancient civilizations, the geology of Sinai, and the traditions of desert dwellers.
What to expect
Alien landscapes of the desert
It is hard to describe in words the multicolor and diversity of landscapes that will unfold before you. Incredible patterns in the rocks made by the wind, colorful inclusions in the stone, stunning panoramas of the Sinai valleys, and whimsical rock sculptures - you will tire of photographing this beauty! Additionally, you will visit the dolmen valley - these structures are older than the pyramids. Examine the petroglyphs on the Stone of Drawings, recording the deals of the Great Silk Road merchants. You will also learn to distinguish between modern rock inscriptions and truly ancient ones.
Authentic lunch
Our driver-guides, residents of these deserts, will prepare dishes for you on the campfire and bake bread right in the sands - this will be a unique, interesting, and hearty experience ;-)
Immerse yourself in history
Our Russian guide will complement the trip with stories as colorful as the landscapes you see. You will be transported back to the times of the Earth's formation, hear about the wanderings of peoples, the development of ancient civilizations - and about the wonders revealed to travelers (you definitely know one of them - it's Moses!).
We place great importance on the quality of our programs and your comfort - this sets our excursions apart from those offered by tour agencies.
