Excursion To Moses Mountain and St.Catherine Sightseeing From Dahab

You'll travel in air-conditioned comfort with your own personal guide, who will accompany you up Moses' Mountain and take you on a tour of St. Catherine's Monastery.

Note that the descent is not too steep, but there are around 500 steps at the very summit. On your journey back down the mountain you will stop at St. Catherine's Monastery, built between 527 and 565 A.D. The monastery is believed to have been built around the site of Moses' Burning Bush. During your visit you will visit the chapel of a Greek Orthodox church to see famous icons and the Mosaic of Transfiguration.Then you will be transferred back to your Dahab hotel.
