Awesome experience on Mt Sinai

Published on Mar, 2024

The whole experience was great. Easy booking, excellent communication. Akmed was our guide from hotel to mt Sinai, he spoke so many languages, he was informative and gave clear instructions. Our driver drove like a madman but still got us there safely. It's a strange system they have here, there were alot of check points and we had to wait up to 10-15 mins at most for a security escort which made the 2.5 drive 4hrs. Once at St Catherine's we were handed over to our guide. Very humble man who kept a good pace. Also spoke a number of languages. We were in a group of 10 and they had a fast pace so we struggled to keep up and only caught up at the multiple stops along the way. All stops offered Bedouin toilets (bring tissues) food and hot drinks. Camels are all the way up if you feel like riding one. Unfortunately it was cloudy and extremely windy so we never got to see sunrise but the whole experience was absolutely amazing. Took 2hrs to get down and 2.5hrs to get back to sharm. We were at our hotel by 11am. I'd highly recommend these guys, they're very professional and always willing to answer your queries. Thanks alot for a great day
