Our guide, Khaled, and driver, Ameer, picked up me and my wife from our hotel in Giza to begin our journey to Mount Sinai. We travelled in a comfortable late model Toyota travel van, stopping along the way at rest stops to buy snacks and drinks. Khaled was an excellent, warm and friendly guide, with great passion for Egypt. We enjoyed our time speaking with him. Upon arrival at the Morganland hotel in St. Catherine we were taken to our room and served dinner. Very early the next morning we begin our ascent to Mount Sinai, which was surprisingly difficult, but absolutely stunning. After the climb, my wife and I were quite tired and requested to return to Cairo as quickly as possible. Our hosts obliged.
Our travel and accommodation was smooth and comfortable. Definitely catered towards westerners. We enjoyed very much and appreciate the warm reception.
