Itinerary:
A truly magnificent spiritual and historical adventure awaits you with Around Egypt Tours on this Day Tour to Mount Sinai and Saint Catherine from Dahab. Your breathtaking travel begins early in the morning when our representatives greet you at your hotel in Dahab around 7:00 in the morning. From there, you will be driven in style, in a private air-conditioned car, through the desert night towards the Sinai Mountains.
 
Then, you will visit the world-famous monastery of St. Catherine, situated between steep desert slopes. It is one of the oldest Christian monasteries and is deeply religious while dating back to the sixth century. The exploration within the monastery will include the ancient library and the Museum of St. Catherine, where you will view rare manuscripts, religious icons, and priceless works of art by a renowned artist from the 15th century, Angelos.
 
The monastery was named for St. Catherine, daughter of Kittery, martyred for the faith in 307 A.D. Legend says monks found her relics atop the mountain that now bears her name.
 
An exhilarating climb up Mount Sinai (Ei-Mokatten) will go with your Egypt tour, where Moses, according to the Bible, received from God the Ten Commandments. The climb affords breathtaking panoramic views of adjoining mountains and the desert, especially during sunrise/sunset when the sky emits the myriad colors that bathe the sacred earth.
