At early morning, a representative will pick you up from your hotel to discover the highlights of the Sinai desert. You will be transferred to the Saint Catherine Monastery, located in the heart of the Sinai Peninsula at a height of 1570 meters. According to tradition, God appeared to Moses in the Burning Bush at the foot of Mount Sinai, where the summit witnessed the receipt of the Ten Commandments inscribed on the tables of the law by Moses. The monastery dates back to the 6th century, during the age of the Great Roman Emperor Justinian I. The great enclosure walls surrounding the monastery were built during this time and are still existent today. The monastery was named after Saint Catherine, one of the earliest Christian martyrs, at the beginning of the 11th century.

After visiting the monastery, you will return to St. Catherine's city for lunch. Then, you will travel about 65 kilometers north of the monastery to be fascinated by one of the geological wonders of Sinai, the Colored Canyon (Salama canyon). You will be guided by a Bedouin native desert guide and drink traditional oriental tea there. The canyon is made up of very narrow walls, about 20 meters in height and a little more than a meter in width, and the walls are made out of sandstone possessing an incredible range of hues from dark brown to red to straw yellow. This phenomenon is due to the presence of magnesium and iron oxides. After visiting the canyon, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
