Overview

We will pick you up from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh at 10:30 pm in our modern, private air-conditioned vehicle to drive you on a 3-hour journey to St. Catherine's Monastery at Mount Sinai's base. Your climb up the mountain of Moses begins at 2:00 am to catch the sunset in this most monumentous experience, and return down the mountain afterwards at 7:00 am.

We will then continue our pilgrimage to visit St. Catherine's Monastery, considered to be one of the most famous and oldest monasteries in the world.   It was dedicated to one of Alexander's rulers, Saint Catherine, who was tortured to death for the sake of her new Christian faith.

Afterwards, we will find lunch and respite in Dahab at a local restaurant, with time for shopping at this special place by the sea too.   

Once your appetite for food, shopping and sightseeing has been satiated, we will return you back to your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh.

  • Authentic Bedouin desert guide for you up and down the mountain.
  • You'll enjoy a lovely respite and lunch at a local restaurant, in the seaside village of Dahab.
