TOUR’S PROGRAM:

You will be picked up from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh city between 8:00 PM and 9:00 PM. Then you will travel in an air-conditioned vehicle for around 4 hours to reach the Moses Mountain. When you arrive at Mount Sinai you will start your trekking tour to the sacred place where the Prophet Moses received the 10 commandments. Reach 2,285 meters by climbing up 750 steps, strolling through the night (approx 2-3 hours depending on the customers).

Depending on the performance of the group, you may arrive at the summit earlier than expected. This will give you a chance to really relax and marvel at the rising sun slowly scattering across the mountains in all its splendor. While gazing at the sunrise, snap awesome photos or pray if you wish to, then begin the descent back down. Remember, it will take around 2 hours to reach the bottom. Enjoy some time to rest after the long trail and then have breakfast.

Next, visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site of St. Catherine’s Monastery. Browse through the old manuscripts displayed in the library and icons excavated from the Vatican. It is the oldest functioning Christian monastery in the world situated on the Sinai Peninsula along with Monastery of Saint Anthony which is located across the Red Sea in the desert of South Cairo. It was dedicated to one of Alexander’s rulers, Saint Catherine who was tortured to death for the sake of her new faith.

After you’ve finished touring the monastery, you can relax on the drive back to your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh.

Super serioși, am ales 4 excursii de la această agenție , servicii și comunicare bună, prețuri corecte și fără costuri ascunse, ghidul Mimo a ridicat excursia din Luxor la superlativ.

Servicii extraordinar de corecte si eficiente la un preț foarte bun. O agenție extraordinar de serioasa cu angajați super profesioniști care iti stau non-stop la dispoziție. Am achiziționat 5 activități de la ei, printre care excursie la Cairo si Luxor. Colaborare extraordinara cu ghizi super bije pregătiți, mai ales ghidul Mimo de la Luxor, bun vorbitor de limba română, chiar daca era arab. Angajați foarte serioși si respectuoși, preturi decente, însă cuvintele sunt de prisos. As apela ori de câte ori ma voi întoarce in Egipt la aceasta agenție fara sa stau pe gânduri.

Extremely fair and efficient services at a very good price. An extraordinarily serious agency with super professional employees who are at your disposal non-stop. I purchased 5 activities from them, including a trip to Cairo and Luxor. Extraordinary collaboration with super well-trained guides, especially the guide Mimo from Luxor, a good speaker of Romanian, even though he was Arabic. Very serious and respectful employees, decent prices, but words are superfluous. I would call this agency whenever I return to Egypt without thinking twice.

tour superbe, Carnac et la vallée des rois un régal , surtout avec notre guide en français

March 4, 2026

nous avons passé une superbe journée, avec ces visites dans l’egypte ancienne et les trésors que nous a fait découvrir notre guide, féru d’histoire , attentif à nous garder dans le récit. Même si le trajet peu paraitre un peu long, le fait de faire un arrêt au milieu nous a permis de ne pas sentir la distance.

Le plus ce sont les pendentifs aux noms de nos enfants gravées avec les hiéroglyphes.
