great trip! - it was amazing and they take great care of you. the hike is pretty challenging but very doable and truly an incredible experience. the guides are very trustworthy and knowledgeable. be prepared to be up all night!

Once in a lifetime experience, a must do! - As soon as we booked our holiday to Egypt, we knew that climbing Mount Siani was something that we really wanted to tick off our bucket list and I'm so glad we did. Communication via WhatsApp 24hrs prior to pick up with pick up time being efficient on the day. We travelled around 3 hours via an air conditoned mini bus to the mountain itself, stopping multiple times for toilet breaks, opportunity to buy food/drinks from local shops as well as waiting for police convoy/escort to the mountain. Upon arrival we were provided with a flash light (it wasn't the best so if you have one, take one with you) and our group was assigned a bedouin guide who took us up the mountain. I'd like to say I'm quite a fit, healthy young individual but even I found this walk tough at times so be prepared it is not for the faint hearted. We stopped multiple times during the climb, again allowing the opportunity for toilet breaks, food + drinks (take toilet roll with you as it is unlikely there will be any in the toilets!). Once we reached the top of the mountain, we had some time to rest prior to walking up the final steps to the summit to watch the sunrise which was absolutely breathtaking!! You have plenty of time to take pictures but it is amazing how quickly the sun rises and the temperature begins to increase so pack suncream and maybe even a change of clothes for the descent. Overall this trip was great value for money & well worth the muscle ache the day after. Be prepared, it is a long day - get plenty of rest before hand as we got picked up at 21:25pm and arrived back at our hotel at 13:00pm the following day.

Mount Sinai and Monastery Hike - Absolutely amazing trip, the planning was great and all our guides were amazing and extremely attentive. The sunrise was like nothing I’ve experience and it made the trek more than worth it. The hike itself isn’t that bad to be honest and you should be fine if you pace yourself and have a reasonable fitness level. There was even an old grandma who did and all it took was some pacing. I met some good friends on the trip so that’s also a bonus. Definitely worth a go!!

Once in a lifetime experience - The climb up and down the mountain was well timed and we'll thought-out with ample opportunity for pit stops and to pace yourself without feeling rushed. The tour guide knew his history and theology fairly well and gave informed guides of the monastery. The guide and driver were very accommodating and cared for everyone's enjoyment and well being.

excellent service - It was amazing experience with professional guide he is name ahmed and excellent service from the owner of the company Mohamed , totally excellent, highly recommended.

Worth every bit, but not easy! - The trip was amazing and worth every bit! If you add more details here about it, that would be helpful, like we go there in a caravan, stop first at a souvenir shop, then start climbing, see the dawn at the top of Mount Sinai, then come back to monestary, etc. Also, you don't really need to carry food and drinks because there are small shops all the way till the top of Mount Sinai. They pick you up earlier than 21:30. We were the first to be picked up at 19:45. Then they picked up other people, and we left Sharm el Sheikh at 21:30. It was a three hour drive to the site. We reached home the next day at 13:30. The trip isn't children-friendly because it's not easy to climb up and down 12 kilometres in total. You can't go all the way with camels. They stop before the summit, and to reach there, you have to walk 720 steps. Also, please note that you cannot take camels while descending. In fact, you can, but the ride becomes very very rough and painful down the hill. They charge €20 for one person one way for the camel ride. Good luck, I hope this review was of help!

Mystical excursion - Excursion NOT for everyone. We leave Sharm around 9pm, making several stops along the way for coffee, water, bath, etc. always escorted by at least two police vans. We arrive around one in the morning at a museum (open) where it is possible to purchase sacred images of Saint Catherine and many others. Continue towards the bus parking which is about 1 km from the climb up Mount Sinai. From here onwards another guide who accompanies you along the entire climb, 7km, made up of many hairpin bends all uphill, irregular with stones, dirt road, sharp stones, steps, in the dark, so bring with you a LED torch that lasts 3/4 hours of battery life or power bank. From here, at the start of the climb, it is possible to take a camel for a fee almost to the end of the climb. As you go up there are other points where there are other camels and the possibility of taking them. Always along the climb, there are various coffee shops where they sell drinks, water, coffee, tea and snacks, and some improvised bathrooms, places where the guide invites you to rest for a few minutes. You continue until even the camels can carry you, from here there are 750 steps, all irregular and of various heights and lengths, in some places even dangerous and steep. You get to the top where there are 4/5 little shops where they sell a bit of everything, even blankets for rent for three euros, and for those who arrived during the night also rest inside the hut. Another final effort 4/5 minutes more up the last steps to then reach the top of Mount Sinai. Here you can sit, take photos, videos and of course pray. Charismatic mystical magical place, you can find the adjective. To be done only if you are fit, trained and with a spirit of sacrifice. Definitely an indelible memory and experience for life.

Marvelous organization,... - Marvelous organization, perfect guides Ahmed,Megdi. A bit hard climbing because of lack of training last year but very exciting. And not that cold as everyone said!!!Bad thing-very little time for the monastery-only 45minutes and there is a lot to see and learn there. As a whole-worth doing it!

Nice experience on Mount Sinai - Definitely a must go spot when you are in Sharm el Sheikh. All worked out nicely, although our hotel was located quite far, so it took quite a time until everybody was picked up from their hotels and we were on the way. The time for climbing is wholly adequate even for unfit people, so if you are fitter than average, pack warm clothes!

Fatigue, cold but also a satisfying experience - Excursion as expected: tiring but well organised. The only things to underline are: it is not clear at the time of booking whether your group consists of a few people or many and we had requested a guide in Italian but he could only speak English. We found ourselves in a bus of 50 people which doesn't make a difference but it would be necessary to specify it as well as knowing that the guide will not speak Italian. Apart from these things, the tour is well organized with well-timed stops both during the bus journey and during the climb. Walking at night is tiring and also quite cold. There are camels that can help you climb if you pay for them. The Monastery is well preserved and with excellent explanations. Overall the tour is well organised
