Sinai Trek

Tripcode: TXS

Countries visited: Egypt

Adult Group Holidays Moderate / Challenging Walking & Trekking Wilderness

Incredible views, mountains, sand dunes and wadis

Looking out over Mount Sinai

With its majestic peaks, vast desert, beautiful waters and a mystical past, the Sinai is the perfect wilderness to be discovered on foot.

With the help of our friendly local Bedouin guides we trek through this vast and empty wilderness, taking in beautiful sights and ancient temples as we go.

After time at the city of Abu Zenima on the Gulf of Suez, we head to Mount Sarabit, from whose summit there are striking views out over the jagged and parched landscape.

We could not trek in the Sinai without climbing the fabled Mount Moses and visiting St Catherine's Monastery.

The impressive landscape and a real insight into local culture and history ensures that this trek will live long in the memory.

 

What makes this trip responsible?

After the “Tahrir Square” revolution in 2011, numbers of tourists visiting Egypt has been at its lowest for years. By visiting Egypt we are directly contributing to rebuilding this ailing industry and giving local businesses and communities a boost during this difficult time for them. We use local leaders who provide a briefing on Responsible Tourism issues on arrival to help you understand the local issues and how you can help. Many of our leaders are qualified Egyptologists and all are extremely keen to promote local ways of life and traditions.
