Description
Embark on the same holy footsteps of Prophet Moses and arrive at where Allah called Moses, giving him the Ten Commandments. Live the adventure and take the best photos ever on this Mount Sinai tour from Sharm El Sheikh.
See the most beautiful view of a sunrise in the universe at the top of this mountain. The clouds flow beneath you over the mountaintops of Sinai.
The light covers the site dazzlingly, illuminating your way to meet the burning bush, where Moses had taken the prophecy.
This tree has been tried to be planted at many sites on the globe, but they were unable to do so, although it is fruitful all year round.
Is that right? This tomb belongs to Haroon, the brother of Moses! What about this black-destroyed mountain that was destroyed due to the manifestation of Allah? What is the fact behind this carved drawing of a calf and its relation to the Israelis?!
Let your tour guide from Golavita tell you the facts about all of that.
Explore the historical churches, Fatimid mosque, and Moses Well, where Prophet Moses had met his wife. Get to know the story that is an essential part of Moses life.

Really great day out, Akram , knowledgeable and fun,Akram was good company. A really excellent itinerary and experience, with all the hassle taken out and a lot of positives added in. Highly recommended to everyone!
Ashraf was our Egyptian professional guide for a Czech small group planned "Sacred journey to the chacra temples of Egypt".
As the title already says, not only were we using his incredible life experience of an egyptolog, tourist guide and organiser. We were also using his experience with the places themselves, which of the extra tickets are worth the money to visit the extra places, which of the villages and shops are fair and having good things.
And of course all the historical stories linked to the places we visited with open mind to some new more alternative explanations of happenings too.
The organisation of our trip from Hurghada, through Asuan, Luxor, Ghiza and back Hurghada is fully his expertise. Minivans, boat, train... He was always with us handling all to our happiness ❤️
Buying extra water, bananas or ordering better for stomach digestion food.
I had an unforgettable overnight trip to the Sataya-Dolphin House. Great organization and easy communication. All of my wishes were taken into account and fulfilled. Thank's a lot!
Great service. We had a wonderful time.
Our guide Abdel Salam was very kind, spoke excellent English and shared his extensive knowledge with us. We had a private AC car.
Visited most of the main sites in Cairo over two days.
Would highly recommend.
Very kind and profesional people.
In every trip that I went with them, all details were taking care of.
Ashraf is the most knowledgeable tour guide that I ever met in my life.
You will go on a trip and come back as friends.
I highly recommend golavita Tours!
We booked a tour with Palma Tours, Mr Akram was very quick to respond to our questions and checked in with us daily to see how the tour was going.
Waleed, the tour guide, was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The bottles of water to keep us hydrated was also a very nice addition.
The private transport was top class, modern air conditioned vehicles and friendly and helpful drivers.
We booked the Luxor / Aswan 2 day tour with overnight stay.
Accommodation & Lunch provided was of great quality. The itinerary was jam packed with enough rest breaks. (We even managed to squeeze an extra site in ours - Thanks Waleed & Akram)
Although this tour has 100’s miles travel by road & train, we highly recommend Palma Tours and have decided to book a second excursion with them during our holiday.
