Would you like to discover a stunning Egyptian mountain? Then join us on this adventure to the top of the famous Mount Sinai and enjoy a unique hike that will also take you to the renowned St. Catherine’s Monastery.
Mount Sinai, also known as Mount Moses, is an important religious landmark for Abrahamic religions and a fascinating place to visit in Egypt. It is located in the Sinai Peninsula and is a great location to see the sunrise. Nearby is St. Catherine Monastery, one of the most famous Christian monasteries in the world.
On this adventure, we will climb to the top of this peak during the night in order to catch sight of the sun’s first rays from the top. We will pick you up at your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh at 10.30 pm and drive to St. Catherine where we will begin our ascent at 2 am, and descend at 7 am. Then, we will visit St. Catherine’s monastery, and after, we will enjoy some shopping and lunch in Dahab. Finally, we will drive you back to the hotel.
Keep in mind that we offer this tour from Monday to Saturday. It is also possible to climb Mount Sinai in the afternoon to catch the sunset.
So, are you ready for an exciting adventure in Egypt? Then book your place and join us to the top of Mount Moses!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
