The jeep pulls away from the palm-lined strip of Hurghada and the town’s clamor falls behind, replaced by a dry wind that seems to push the vehicle deeper into an ochre world. Dunes rise and flatten like folded pages; an off-road line cuts a temporary path toward a low cluster of tents and stone huts where Bedouin life continues on a human scale.

Hydrate early and often
