Mount Sinai - At 02:00 am, the 3-hour ascent of 2,285m up the mountain begins, guided by one of our experienced guides. The climb follows a long path leading to 700 steps, taking you to the mountain’s peak in time for the sunrise, where a stunning view awaits. If climbing is too challenging, renting a camel is an option, but the final 750 steps to the top must be walked.

Saint Catherine - After descending from Mount Sinai, guests will meet their guide at the monastery gate to visit the Transfiguration Church, the Burning Bush, and the Well of the Prophet Moses, before being transferred back to their hotel in Sharm.
