The trip to Jebel Musa is an exciting and informative excursion. During the journey, it is necessary to observe the following recommendations. First of all, no matter what your age, be confident in your abilities: climb the mountain, which lasts a few hours, under the authority of anyone. You need to calculate their strength and very comfortable to wear and shoes. Sneakers, in the off-season – warm outerwear in a zip pack behind your back; in the summer – a dense windbreaker or a fleece jacket will be beneficial: the top is always more remarkable than the hills, and the strong wind blows.

Our representative will pick you up from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh, after which you will be transferred to St. Catherine.
Transfer by air-conditioned bus or Car to St. Catherine city at night will take 2.30 hours. Upon arrival, take a rest before heading to the mountain.
The ascent begins, and it takes three hours to climb to the summit of 2,285 meters above sea level. The long road will lead you to a stone staircase of 700 steps.
After overcoming this last part of the climb, you will find yourself at the top of the mountain. The ascent lasts 3 hours (from 2:00 to 5:00). Time is not chosen by chance; take a rest after climbing, and you will be rewarded for your hard work with a view of the sunrise, which is no less beautiful than anywhere else on the top of Jebel Musa. If you can't find your way around, you can hire a camel to take you to the beginning of the ladder.
After going down the mountain, you will visit St. Catherine's Monastery, which has been in continuous operation for 16 centuries. You will be taken to Dahab for some relaxation and lunch at a local restaurant in Dahab.
Then return to your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh.
