=== North towards [[Wadi Halfa]] ===
Take any of the minibuses that head north towards El Droshab. From here it is very easy to flag down rides heading out of the city. Don't use a sign. You will come to a police check-point as you head out, and if you are polite and friendly, they will normally find you a vehicle to hop in.
=== South towards [[Wad Madani]], [[Gedaref]], [[Kassala]] ===
Take a bus from Souq El-Arabi to Soba at the southern outskirts of the city. Get off at the last station, which is already on the road to Wad Madani. Continue walking a bit along the road and start hitching from there. You should get a ride within a few minutes.
== Places to avoid ==
== Accommodation and Sleep ==
There are places to camp down by the river, and a very cool place would be near the confluence of the two Niles. You can take a bus out here. People will be curious, but rarely give you problems. Camping should be possible on Tuti Island.
You might also try and find a roof to sleep on. Often apartment buildings are open to go into, and there is always a nice spot on a roof in the cool of the night.
== Other useful info ==
A great Couchsurfing community to boot. If you are heading South towards Ethiopia, many buses depart to Al QadarifGedaref. These are cheap, have AC and make stops for food.
