St. Catherine Monastery and Dahab City Tour
- A representative will pick you up from your hotel in Sharm El-Sheikh. Then you will be transferred to St. Catherine to visit St. Catherine Monastery, 220 km northwest of Sharm El-Sheikh, located between St. Catherine's mounts and Moses Mount. It is the oldest monastery of Christianity and a Greek Orthodox monastery. Within its impressive walls rests a citadel like no other, incredibly rich in important religious and historical structures.
- Among its treasures is the Museum of St. Catherine, where there are icons attributed to the painter Angelos, one of the most famous artists of the 15th century, or to his peers, as well as all six icons by Michael Damaskenos, which are considered among the most important works of the Cretan School of the 16th century.
- After that, head to Dahab, the Flower Power City in the Red Sea, for a city tour and shopping tour. Have lunch at a local restaurant, then drive back to your hotel in Sharm El-Sheikh.
NB: Tour starts at 06:00 and ends at 15:00.
