Sinai Safari

8days

Tour description

The Sinai peninsular is a region of immense natural beauty connecting the Middle East and Africa. From its mountainous interior to its lovely white sand beaches and stunning coral reefs, Sinai has much to offer the potential visitor, and this tour combines a stay here with time in Cairo to see the ancient pyramids and sphinx.

Marine life in the Red SeaYou begin your tour in Cairo, with a visit the Gisa Plateau, site of one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the Pyramids and Sphinx. After learning about their history, we then take you into the city centre to tour the vast Egyptian Museum, with its famous Tutankhamun display.

We leave Cairo to travel across the Suez Canal and through the Sinai desert to the Red Sea coast and the charming resort of Dahab. Famed for its golden sands, this picturesque Bedouin village will be your base for the next few days.

While in Dahab we include a trip to the Blue Hole, a famous dive site with a huge variety of corals and fish that is also excellent for snorkelling. A sunset camel ride makes a memorable end to the day.

Camels in the desert, Sinai, EgyptOur next day's activity is a jeep safari to the beautiful Coloured Canyon and lush green, palm filled Khudra Oasis before walking through the strange rock formations of the White Canyon.

You also have a chance to try some scuba-diving and climb Mt. Sinai and visit St. Catherine's monastery while you are in Dahab.

Finally you say goodbye to the Red Sea and return to Cairo, where you have time for some last minute shopping and sightseeing before your tour ends.
