beklimming van de heilige berg Sinai en het Sint-Catharinaklooster
Beschrijving
De berg Sinaï (of Mount Moses) is de beroemdste berg op het Sinaï-schiereiland in Egypte. Volgens de Bijbel verscheen God aan Mozes op deze berg en gaf hij de Tien Geboden. Op deze berg bevindt zich ook het klooster van St Catherine. Het ligt op een hoogte van 1570 meter in de vallei tussen de bergen van Musa, Catherine en Safsaf. Het klooster werd gebouwd tijdens het bewind van de Byzantijnse keizer Justinianus (527-565).
Rondreisopties
Reisroute
Rust onderweg uit in de stad Dahab onze transfer voor twee richtingen ( heen en terug ) het zal 8 uur duren daarvoor zullen we 30 minuten rusten in de stad Dahab.
na het afdalen van de berg Mozes, bezoeken we het St. Catharinaklooster - een orthodox kloostercentrum waarvan de geschiedenis sinds de 6e eeuw ononderbroken is. Het bevindt zich al 1400 jaar in het midden van de Sinaï-woestijn sinds het werd gebouwd tijdens het bewind van de Byzantijnse keizer Justinianus (527-565). En de stichter van de islam, de profeet Mohammed, en de Arabische kaliefen, en de Turkse sultans, en zelfs Napoleon zelf betuttelden het klooster, waardoor het niet kon worden geplunderd. Gedurende zijn lange geschiedenis is het klooster nooit ingenomen of vernietigd
, Berg Sinaï beklimmen Na ongeveer 8 uur met transfer arriveert u bij de berg begint. Je wordt begeleid door een bedoeïenengids die je meeneemt de berg op. Draag comfortabele en lichte schoenen, neem warme kleding mee (jas, windjack, broek, sokken, muts), want voor zonsopgang op een hoogte van meer dan 2200 meter is het erg koud en een lichte rugzak is comfortabel voor dingen en water. Je beklimt de Mozesberg over een breed pad, eerst langs een serpentijn, daarna over 750 treden. Als je de top bereikt, kun je genieten van het uitzicht op de zonsopgang.

Very nice hike. Organization instead a little rough on travel and driving to the monastery. Delay to pick up and driving who did not speak good Italian. Very fast visit and insufficient information: guided tour so almost useless. Instead the guide in Russian was very good, I spoke in English on the way back, too bad I do not know Italian.
Grazie per il commento e il consiglio.
Although there were some obastacles (The pick up organisation was a bit rocky, monastery was closed for the day), we managed to have an amazing experience. A few tips before going on this trip: the Bedouins will try to sell you ponchos or rent out blankets close to the summit claiming that the temperatures are freezing. However, I managed with just a t-shirt (in mid July) but some might find it a bit chilly up there, just bring a hoodie or a light fleece sweater. Bring a lot of water with you and a head torch for a more hands-free experience. The icons at the gallery right when you arrive in St.Catherine’s are outrageously priced, try buying them at the monastery or at one of the local’s shops right outside the security checkpoint. Enjoy!
Thank you Mr. Andrej about your amazing review and we wish you happy with us , and i hope you understand about monastery was closed this is not in our hand i hope you book with us anther experience ( dar el salaam tour ) and we be great and good with you thank you
I went to sunrise arabian beach resort. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Its nice to meet to Ali in reception who is so caring and friendly and helpful. In main restaurant Khalid who was like my little brother who knew what we like and he is there and always smiling. In Indian restaurant parminder who ask us every morning what we like to eat for dinner and he made it for us he made us feel that we are at our second home. And all the staff help us so much with our mum who is disabled. We loved it so much we were there twice within month. And hopefully going back in October with big family. To see our second family in sunrise arabian beach resort.
thank so much and wish book with us again very soon
A completely different trip. Saw something new and had a completely new experience. Very tiring but it was worth it.
Thank you so much for your review 😊.We try do happy all our guests ☺️☺️☺️
We had to do a last minute cancellation due to an issue and the company worked tirelessly with us to help coordinate a cancellation even though it was outside the regular window. We really appreciated their understanding and willingness to help us navigate the cancellation process. Prior to the cancellation, Natalia, was very quick to respond to questions, make suggestions regarding what to pack and even texted to remind us to order our breakfast boxes the day of our trip. Finding a reputable company can sometimes be daunting when looking for tours but this company really stood out in how quickly they communicated and the transparency. Natalia insured we were connected to her supervisor Talaat who has helped us navigate planning tours with them out of Cairo and made sure our cancellation went seamlessly. 10/10 recommended
thank you so much, and we hope see you soon book wiht us again
It was amazing! The city is so beautiful. The peak of the mountain is worth it. The guide was so helpful and friendly. The bedouin guide was a very nice guy with beautiful information and knowledge.
