Overview

Join us on an amazing trip starting at 8:30 PM from your hotel in Sharm. We'll hop on a comfy coach for a scenic 4-hour ride to the foot of Moses Mountain. Get ready for a fascinating night climb of about 750 steps. In around 5 hours, you'll reach the summit of Mount Sinai, just in time to witness a breathtaking sunrise panorama.
 
As the sun rises, we'll make our way down to the famous St. Catherine Monastery, a journey of 2–3 hours. Take a 1-hour break to rest and explore the wonders inside the monastery. You'll find an eleventh-century mosque and an Orthodox Greek monastery, looking like a fortress. Inside the church, you'll see the revered remains of Saint Catherine. On the other side, the sacred Holy Valley awaits.
 
This is the very place where God instructed Moses to remove his shoes, a symbol of the land's holiness. We expect to be back at the hotel around 2 PM, ending an unforgettable journey of spirituality and history.
