Mount Sinai Climb and St Catherine Tour - Sharm El Sheikh

About this activity

Tackling Mount Sinai by yourself can be tricky, so join this guided tour from Sharm el Sheikh. You'll leave in the evening to ensure you have time to climb to the summit in time to watch the sunrise. Afterward, descend to the 6th-century Monastery of St. Catherine, built where Moses is believed to have seen the burning bush.
