  • Monastery of Saint Catherine
  • Dahab

Begin your adventure early in the morning as your guide picks you up from your hotel. Hop into a modern Jeep and embark on an exciting journey through the breathtaking Sinai desert. Your first stop is the historic Saint Catherine Monastery, nestled amidst the majestic Sinai mountains at an altitude of 1570 meters. This sacred site holds immense significance, as it was here that Moses witnessed the miraculous burning bush. Located near the foot of Mount Sinai, where Moses received the Ten Commandments, the monastery dates back to the 6th century, during the reign of Emperor Justinian.

From the monastery, venture north for approximately 65 kilometers along the Saint Catherine Road. This scenic route leads to one of Sinai’s geological wonders, the Colored Gorge. As you traverse this narrow passage, marvel at the towering sandstone walls, reaching heights of 40 meters and barely exceeding a meter in width. The walls are painted in a stunning array of colors, from dark brown to vibrant red and straw yellow. This mesmerizing palette is a result of the presence of magnesium and iron oxides.

After exploring the Colored Gorge, return to the charming town of Dahab for a delicious lunch. Take some time to stroll along Dahab Street in Mashyia, immersing yourself in the local culture and enjoying the vibrant atmosphere. Finally, relax as you drive back to your hotel, reflecting on the unforgettable experiences of your Sinai desert adventure.
