MOUNTAIN OF MOSES + MONASTERY OF ST. CATHERINE
Days: Wednesday evening, Friday and Sunday evening departure from the hotel.
You should have with you: a passport, breakfast (dry ration), water, sports shoes, glasses, a cap, a photo-video, it is cold on the top of the mountain in winter, so warm clothes are needed. When visiting sacred places (ST. CATHERINE MONASTERY) dress appropriately (shoulders and knees must be covered for both women and men). Visiting Temples by women in trousers is allowed. Women are required to wear a headdress or headscarf.

I recommend buying tickets not from hotel guides, but from travel agencies in the city. The hotel guide takes the money and sends your application to the office and that's all his work is over. Then someone else works with you, and so on. In the city travel agencies, many keep in touch with you until the very departure for the tour, and some after it. In addition, they are 1.5-2 times cheaper and there is no risk of being deceived. Verified over 10 trips to Sharm.

Note: This tour is not easy. for me, it was one of the most difficult in my life ... departure at 10 pm from charm. at 1 am you are at the monastery. The ascent to the mountain takes place until 5 am. when you rise to the top you will think that the legs have come to an end. wear comfortable shoes. but after dawn we still have to go down. the same route. by one or two in the afternoon you will reach the monastery. The excursion is certainly interesting, but difficult.
At this time of the year, you can also go with tour operators from the old market. But in the spring it is already better to choose from your operator in the hotel - because. the road is quite long, and in a bus without air conditioning it will be a bit hot to say the least (on the way back).
