Overview
The Mount Sinai tour from Sharm is one of the most beautiful experiences in Egypt. This is a true desert adventure, not just a religious trip. Test your abilities and enjoy one of the most stunning sunrises of your life.
Mount Sinai, where Moses received the commandments, radiates a unique energy that will not disappoint mystical travelers or adventurers hunting for breathtaking landscapes. We depart at night to reach the summit in time for sunrise.
At 2,285 meters (7,497 ft) above sea level, the ascent is a nighttime trekking challenge. **Alternatively (for an extra charge),** you can take the "Camel Trial" (a characteristic camel ride) part of the way up.
At the foot of the mountain stands St. Catherine's Monastery, an exceptional place of peace and retreat.
