Overview

You will travel through the night to Mount Sinai to climb the mountain in darkness and reach the summit in time for sunrise on Moses’ Mountain. Along the way, you will move through starlit slopes and arrive as the sky lightens. From the top, you will watch the sun rise over the surrounding desert and mountains, taking in the broad views and quiet atmosphere that make this location significant. After descending at dawn, you will visit St. Catherine’s Monastery, one of the oldest Christian monasteries in the world. The monastery is built around the site traditionally associated with the Burning Bush, and you will explore this historic place and its ancient setting. This visit offers a close look at a site that has drawn pilgrims and travellers for centuries.
