Good morning. Before we take on the waters of the Red Sea, let us take some time to explore the Pyramids of Giza. Thousands of years old and still standing. Stare at the Sphinx while catching yet another glimpse of the Three Kings in the background. Also on our list of stops, the Stepped Pyramid of Djoser, the first building in all of Egypt. After stocking upon snacks we will hop on our bus and travel to Dahab.

Today you will have a free day in Dahab to explore the gold city , later on at night time ,We depart from Dahab at approximately 11:30PM to make a lengthy 2-hour drive to Mount Sinai. When we reach the monastery, we will brief the group on how the hike up the mountain will commence. We start summiting the mountain at approximately 1550 meters above sea level, at 1:30AM, where a trained Bedouin guide will take the lead at a speedy pace with the fit hikers.

As for the less fit – you are in good hands – our tour leader will always walk at the back ensuring no one is left behind. The hike up the mountain takes approximately 3 hours depending on fitness and the last part of the summit includes 773 steps.

This sounds like quite a tough walk, but trust that the sunrise you will see later this morning will be worth every step up the mountain.

We will lead you to the perfect platform for a catnap before the sun smiles over the endless mountain range. Get your cameras ready and snap as many shots as you can. Close your eyes and sense that you are standing at the top of the world for a moment in time.

As soon as we are all ready, we will make our walk down the mountain. Catch a glimpse of the Greek Orthodox Chapel up the mountain where it is believed Moses received the Ten Commandments.

At the foot of the mountain is our second sight of this trip. The monastery of Saint Katherine. It is one of the oldest continuously functioning Christian monasteries in the world. We will have
breakfast here.

The monastery library preserves the second largest collection of early codices and manuscripts in the world, outnumbered only by the Vatican Library. Also see the burning bush of Moses.
This site is sacred to Christianity and Islam.
