Mount Sinai & St. Catherine: Sacred Summit Journey

It was amazing day out tou mountain Sinai with excellent service from the tour guide Ahmed, highly recommend to everyone.

It’s hard to get through the night and the day after with little sleep. It’s hard to climb a mountain in the dark fuelled mostly by adrenaline. But for all the pain, it was so worth it. The glory of the Milky Way, undimmed by light pollution, the joy of witnessing falling comets, the incredible beauty of the dawn with the sky moving from silhouette, to eery blue, to magical red and then the golden ball of the sun with its warmth. We arrived at the top at 5:15am and sat huddled for warmth in horse hair Bedouin blankets. It was a moment of calm before the sunrise. Everyone without exception was in awe. As the sun rose an old man spontaneously broke into a song of praise in Arabic. It was beautiful. You may not believe the story of Moses. I happen to. Having read the account in Exodus 19-20, as you look down on the planes far below you can picture the Israelite encampment as Moses received the tablets of stone from God. The mountain looms in its craggy splendour above the plain. It feel like what it is. A place many regard as Holy. The trip was expertly guided. The communication was first rate, delivered with humour and warmth. The trip is also tremendous value. You should book it. You won’t regret it.

We have already done excursions with Sun Tours Egypt and they are always punctual, precise and well organized. The climb to Mount Sinai is quite challenging but intense and suggestive. Dawn is a breathtaking sight. All beautiful!

Excellent excursion, very good guide with good explanations about the place and history. I am delighted with my excursion and recommend

We did mount sinai today, and what a wonderful experience it was. Be warned, areas of it are tough going up and coming down Is just as hard, but it’s all so worth it! The sunrise is wonderful!

Thanks a lot for our guide today Ahmed he is very friendly and helpful tour guide , and special thanks to the driver today mohamed he is very professional . Thanks so much for the great tour, highly recommended.

A well organized trip. The guide, Ahmed, was exceptional and the Bedouin guides in the mountain were very helpful and nice. Our group needed help and they stepped up and supported us. The only negative is the bus from and to Sharm wasn’t great and there are too many stops. I would recommend this for anyone who wants to go to Mount Sinai

Great experience and a must do when in this part of Egypt. The hike could be challenging but camels are available to get most of the hike done. The guides are very helpful. The only negative comment I have is that the tour description says maximum of 15 but we were in a group of 60.
