Itinerary
Early pick up from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh, to enjoy a wonderful day trip to St. Catherine Monastery and Moses Mount 220 km Northwest, arriving at St.Catherine with a rest stop at the Monastery guest house for refreshment. Following this, your big climb up Moses Mount, which takes around 3 hours to climb the 7,498-foot peak following the Path of Moses, a stairway of nearly 700 steps which has to be done by foot reaching the Chapel of the Holy Trinity on the peak of Moses Mount, It is the spot where Moses had received the Ten Commandments and for you to view the stunning scenery of the sunrise over the mountains of Sinai. After the descent, visit the Monastery of St.Catherine. Within its imposing walls rests a citadel like no other, incredibly rich in important religious and historical structures. Among its treasures is a library of ancient manuscripts and icons second only to the Vatican itself, and a 6th Century Church reputed to lie directly on the site of the Burning Bush. Quite simply, the Monastery is a defining feature of the Holy Land. Then drive you back to your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh.
