Wonderful experience. I would like to thank Malk for their attention and professionalism. Also to the guide and drivers. Very good organization and coordination. They picked us up and brought us back to our hotel even though it was not among the pickup points. The trekking is very fun, and watching the sunrise makes the experience unique and magical. The Bedouins are incredible and help you with everything throughout the journey, attentive to whether anyone might need something. Being able to visit the Monastery of Saint Catherine is also impressive. We congratulate the entire team for making this experience unforgettable.

A real experience to do once in a lifetime especially if someone in interested in the historical and religious context of the place. The tour organizers coordinated the trip well, from pre-registration to pick-up to timing the trip so that you reach the top by sunrise. Would recommend travellers to consider using the camel ride while going up, makes the last 750 step hike slightly easier. Though the trip is physically exerting and it does get chilly in the night. So please have layers warm clothes and snacks with yourself.
