Great experience seeing the sun rise at the summit. If you're planning to do this, keep in mind it is a mountain, and although the trail is straightforward, you'll have to ascend 2000ft at night sp careful consideration of footwear and clothing. Whilst you're walking, you'll be warm but as soon as you stop for a while (especially at the top) it will be cold so take warm clothing. You can hire blankets for 150 Egyptian pounds at the top. Our tour guides were friendly, helpful and experienced. Highly recommended!

Its hard work but the sunrise is worth it. We left hotel at 9pm and got back at 2pm the following day. Limited sleep, long coach journey and a 3-4 hour trek up the mountain in the pitch black / torchlight is not for the faint hearted. Its also very cold so dress up warm and consider paying the E£150 for a much needed blanket at the top. The wind is biting However the views of the sunrise and the walk back down in the daylight are spectacular. Monastery tour is a bit something of nothing. I'm not religious so maybe its just a bit lost on me and I was very tired by this point. Interesting enough to see but the highlight is the sunrise. Blink and you miss it as its over pretty quick so get up there in time and get a good spot for photos and travel prepared, drinks, snacks, warm clothes, good shoes.

It was a long day but worth the journey which was well taken care by the opestors and guide! Karim was ve er u knowledgeable and helpful guide. Food was amazing and the people were super nice .

Crazy shark is an outstanding charter company. We were originally going to snorkel but when they found out my brother and I were dive certified, they went out of their way to prepare dive gear and take us on the most breathtaking dive of my life. I felt safe underwater with the dive instructor despite being a bit rusty in scuba diving. The spots were gorgeous and the crew had no trouble anchoring smoothly. The meal cooked aboard was delicious and fresh and the crew was professional, kind, and easy going. I would definitely recommend them again.

I brought my family aboard a crazy shark tour and had an amazing time. We went to three separate spots where we could dive and snorkel, were served an incredible authentic meal that was freshly cooked aboard, and had an easy passage. The crew is professional, friendly, and warm. They were very flexible with the itinerary as well. I would use their services again and recommend them to anyone.

The experience was amazing! The tour guide Sherif was excellent - he was incredibly informative, kind and made the experience really enjoyable. The photographers are also amazing and really capture great moments that you can take home with you!

A very well organised tour from start to finish. A high fitness level is required to ascend the 7 kilometres to the summit before dawn.

A magical, unforgettable, extreme physical challenge of an experience. Please don't arrive on this Tour expecting European/British/N American niceties. The Bedouin will be quick to tell you that Sinai is Asia, the customs and the life are different here to Egypt and the region in general. A profoundly moving experience to climb relentlessly through the night lit only by small plastic torches provided on the bus before alighting, and to witness the breathtaking stars overhead. We felt the stars were lighting our path at one point, so vivid they are. Stay close if you can catch up with them to the leading guide who will just pour forth the history of the region, the features to look out for in the rock face, the background to their own Bedouin mountain lives and the pitfalls (don't succumb to the camel taxis). We climbed relentlessly with few stop points enroute. I took the guides ' lead by not sitting down at the rest intervals- the body siezes up quickly at night in the biting cold. You need snacks that are easy to ingest enroute and are highly calorific. Try the packets of chocolate covered dates from the supermarket before you get the bus, or snickers bars - take several. Be mindful of your liquids intake. The available loos are primitive (!). Be respectful of a holy place sacred to all 3 major religions as you reach the summit. You'll await the sunrise in pure exhausted elation. Accept the camel hair Blankets and the chai tea at the final breakpoint before you climb the 756 steps to the summit. They cost LE 250 approx and you'll need them. It is COLD. Wear gloves and a woolly hat, your winter coat and layers. Wear sturdy running trainers or boots. Climb with 3 x points of contact on the rock surface as you mount the final steps. The mind does strange things at altitude in the biting cold at 5 am. Be careful. And please if.you are not physically fit and able to do a 20 km round trip including a sustained 60 deg angle climb at pace, sit this one out. The guides on the mountain and our Sun Tours bus guide were immense. Please tip heavily. Avoid the hawkers selling tat. Be prepared For a bit of chaos at entry to the trail. Leave your preconceptions behind. Bring cash. Appreciate the immense natural beauty you're witnessing and live in the moment.

We completed this tour on November 10th and whilst the climb up the mountain in the dark and sunrise at dawn were spectacular we were just happy to arrive home in one piece. From the point of pick up the tour guide had an abrasive and almost rude attitude, barking out requests and instructions abruptly. We were not made aware prior that pick up that travel there would take over 5 hours as we needed to travel in convoy under police escort, however that was a minor issue in comparison to the mini bus experience. On boarding the bus we were directed to the last two seats cramped in the corner of the rear seat. I attempted to find my seatbelt only to find that on the back seat the seat covers that had been fitted covered the receiver buckles meaning there was no way of fastening the lap belt, we would simply be travelling beltless! We also had to stop twice shortly after setting off in convoy, firstly due to a faulty window at the front of the bus and then for a window panel directly next to where we were sat which was completely loose and through which you could pass your whole hand. The noise generated was horrendous as was the draught to the point where we had little choice but to notify the tour guide who instructed the driver to stop at the services. After the driver spent 20 minutes attempting to fix it the guide said it was broken and could we just put a hoodie on to cover our ears…what fabulous customer service! After we suggested it could be taped up the guide returned shortly after with a wide roll of tape which the driver aggressively and haphazardly attempted to seal the gap. Also we had to finish the job off before he ran away with the tape. After a further 10 minutes we were back on the road in what can only be described as rally mode. The driver was driving in the dark at what felt like break neck speed overtaking everything in sight to catch up with the convoy, we later found out from the couple seated up front with the driver he was doing 140kmh at times and had only side lights and full beam. The bus bounced, crashed and wallowed with apparently little by way of suspension, I did wonder whether we would actually get to walk the mountain! The return journey to Sharm was less eventful with the window fixed but was still driven far too fast for the bus and road conditions. In short I would definitely recommend visiting Mount Saini but would avoid this tour provider at all costs. There is total disregard for the health, safety and comfort of their customers, they may be cheap but most certainly not the experience I ever want to repeat.

Trip was amazing and everything ran smoothly. Will definitely be booking next time we visit Sharm. Staff was amazing and Bedouin tea was delicious.

Excellent experience. Tough enough walk for average fitness but totally do- able. Guide Ayhem was great, very organised and patient.... sinai local guides very nice also.

Snall pick up bus was very squashed. Guides manner was abrupt. On the mountain the guides did not stay with group. We ended up doing it on our own. The experience itself was fantastic. Recommend camel ride up. 600EP each. Strenuous for us...fit couple in our 60s.

This trip was fantastic for the money. Just bear in mind there are extras that are optional ££ You pay 600 Egyptian £ or €10 to enter the canyon. This needs to be paid when you arrive on the bus. The snorkeling was the highlight. We went out for ages. Felt like 40 mins to 1 hour but can't guarantee full duration as I wasn't tracking it. Coral was beautiful ❤️ The drive up to dahab was beautiful as well. Camel ride short and sweet (kids like tips/sweets), snorkeling gear is mandatory if you want to get in the water as you have to have a life vest on. €10/$10 per person. the lunch is included but the lunch spot charge $1 for shower and $1 for toilets. The pitt stop on the way has free toilets and dahab shopping has free toilets. Bring water and a scarf with you although there are opportunities to buy it on the way. Guides and photographer are fab and make the trip. Jeep was loads of fun but short.

Great value for the trip, efficient pickup. The tour guide and bedouin guide are very qualified and fun. The view at the top of Mount Sinai is unique, beautiful and breathtaking. The hike can be a bit challenging towards the end but it is totally worth it when you get to the top. Beware that the minibus will bring you back at 1pm the next day and not early morning as indicated in some places.

Amazing experience i visiting/ tracking mount Sanai in Egypt with our Amazing Ibrahim elnagar, he went above and beyond to acomodate all our needs and made sure we also had a laugh I truly recommend Thank you very much. Nota 10
