Enjoy an early lunch at a local ecolodge, where you can savor the delightful flavors of traditional Nubian cuisine (can be arranged depending upon flight schedule). This culinary experience is deeply rooted in Nubian culture, typically enjoyed within the homes of the few Nubians residing in southern Egypt or in New Nubia—a community of houses and villages established in southern Egypt when the Nubians relocated from the area around Egypt's High Dam in the early 1960s.
