www.dragoman.co.uk Dragoman shakes the dust off archaeology with its overland exploration of North Africa departing from Britain on 14th February and 12 October 2005
Dragoman's rugged but comfortable Mercedes Benz vehicle is home and a life-line for the next few weeks on a fun filled, action packed exploration of North Africa. Just some of the highlights en route include the vast Greek and Roman cities of Apollonia, Cyrene, Leptis Magna and Sabratha and Siwa Oasis in Egypt, ancient home to the tomb of Alexander the Great. The epic crossing of the Sahara will be made under the expert guidance of the ‘blue men of the desert’, the Tuaregs, who will guide travellers across their homeland. Hidden amongst the dune fields of the Sahara Desert, are stunning oases and awesome mountains decorated with ancient rock paintings. At Ghadames an ancient Saharan trading oasis offers an insight into a unique heritage. |
