We left chaotic Cairo and headed south to Hurghada by the Red Sea. To be able to drive as a tourist in southern Egypt it's compulsory to join a convoy with police escort, however we never met one and after 912km we reached Luxor and are now pretty certain that we didn't need one.

wonder if he needs help ?


Knowing that in less than three days the roads will become real desert we agreed to travel together with Alan until Khartoum in Sudan, it's always wise to be in a team when crossing difficult areas.
