If ancient history is your thing, do not miss the visit to the St. Catherine's Monastery, located on the Sinai Peninsula at the foot of Mount Sinai. The Orthodox monastery is not only very important but also the surround area is extremely beautiful, so it is really well worth visiting it. Much more if you combine it with a visit to the White Canyon. The rocks of the White Canyon, made of white sandstone with high lime content, create magnificent pure white walls. Hiking for 1 hour and a half is pure excitement. There is nothing better than a small oasis with green water spring and Bedouin tent to relax.
Continuing our excursion we will head, in less than one hour, to Dahab, at a local restaurant, for lunch.
