Sudanese people are really friendly, some of the best that you will meet in Africa. The three challening factors are the war in the south (which the route to Ethiopia avoids), the conflict in western sudan, a more recent development which you will avoid completely if you are coming down from Egypt or Saudi. The third is just that the country is very large with desert to the north and west which you will end up having to cross. However this is all part of the adventure. Definitely worth going to Sudan.
