An experience not to be missed
Kemet travel was a surprisingly positive experience when chosen for the two day trip to Mount Sinai and the Monastery of Saint Catherine. Constantly in contact and from the time of the pick up the two drivers Tony and Milet made sure that the client just relaxes and enjoys. The overnight at a Bedouin Camp in Saint Catherine was positive with basic but clean accomodation and delicious dinner and breakfast while the staff was welcoming with a smile and helpful. As for the guide Ahmed accompanying to the top of the mountain for the sunrise it was constantly worrying so everything would go smoothly and gave interesting information along the hiking. Surely reccomended. With regards, Alexandros from

Warm hospitality and comfortable accommodations
Our guide, Khaled, and driver, Ameer, picked up me and my wife from our hotel in Giza to begin our journey to Mount Sinai. We travelled in a comfortable late model Toyota travel van, stopping along the way at rest stops to buy snacks and drinks. Khaled was an excellent, warm and friendly guide, with great passion for Egypt. We enjoyed our time speaking with him. Upon arrival at the Morganland hotel in St. Catherine we were taken to our room and served dinner. Very early the next morning we begin our ascent to Mount Sinai, which was surprisingly difficult, but absolutely stunning. After the climb, my wife and I were quite tired and requested to return to Cairo as quickly as possible. Our hosts obliged.
Our travel and accommodation was smooth and comfortable. Definitely catered towards westerners. We enjoyed very much and appreciate the warm reception.
