Sinai is a mix of contrasts. A desert interior full of history, where Moses received the Ten Commandments en route to the Promised Land, the Pharaohs found gold and searched for their gods, and where the Bedouin’s camp beside ruins of Crusader Forts. Christianity, Judaism and Islam know Sinai as a holy land and over the years prophets, saints, pilgrims and warriors have crossed this vast nothingness.
Here are only a few places in the world where a first-time visitor is confronted with a mountainous desert landscape as spectacular as that of the Sinai.
You will actually trek into the heart of the desert on camel, by foot and by jeep. You will visit some of the awesome Sinai canyons and spend time with a Bedouin tribe, learning about their techniques of survival in this harsh desert environment, and to explore the Mount Sinai area by foot. To top it all sleeping under the stars in the desert is a most breathtaking and soul recharging experience.
In the solitude of the deep desert the silence becomes intense. Sitting amongst the changing colors of the rocks of the desert as the sun sets, without a sound to be heard, it is easy to see why so many people have chosen the desert as a place of retreat.
So Miami Beach invites you to discover the splendor of the Sinai by means of various trekking routes. Dahab is the perfect basis for daily trips, or even longer tours in the mountains.
