Pick-up at the hotel on time (5:45 am), then road for 3 hours, toilet stop and security check by the police on the way (4 times). We spend two hours in the monastery, half an hour with a guide who knows his story. Back to dahab for lunch(medium) and the inevitable perfume/cosmetic factory and others...the c is not great but good. Arrival in Sharm around 5pm. Provide water and snacks, beautiful landscapes all along the route.
