"Guided by Muzeina Bedouins, on camel and on foot, we trail the caravan route along which Moses reputedly led the Israelites out of Egypt to the Promised Land 33 centuries ago. It's a white-sand wilderness, punctuated by narrow gorges, precipices and towering peaks. Crevices decorate the rock faces, imbued with an astonishing symmetry of colours - reds, yellows, purples - pigments of limestone, striped in a blazing trail. At nightfall we eat around the campfire and sleep out under the stars. This journey took the Israelites 40 years, but hosted by the Makhad and aided by four-wheel drives, we complete it in just two days."
