About this experience
This excursion is unlike standard programs: we venture to where the colors of the desert are the brightest and the rock ornaments are mind-blowing. You will decipher hieroglyphics, see mysterious dolmens, and taste authentic Bedouin dishes for lunch. Along the way, our guide will share secrets of ancient civilizations, the geology of Sinai, and the traditions of desert dwellers.
What to Expect
Alien landscapes of the desert
It is hard to put into words the multitude of colors and diverse landscapes that will unfold before you. Incredible patterns in the rocks created by the wind, colorful layers in the stone, breathtaking views of the Sinai valleys, and whimsical rock sculptures - you will tire of capturing this beauty on camera!
Additionally, you will visit the dolmen valley - these structures are older than the pyramids. Examine the petroglyphs on the Stone of Inscriptions that recorded the transactions of Silk Road traders. And you will learn to distinguish modern rock inscriptions from truly ancient ones.
Authentic lunch
Our guides, who are inhabitants of these deserts, will cook dishes for you over a fire and bake bread right in the sands - it will be an unusual, interesting, and satisfying experience ;-)
Immersing in History
Our Russian guide will complement the trip with stories as colorful as the landscapes you see. You will be transported to the times of the Earth's formation, hear about the wanderings of peoples, about the development of ancient civilizations - and about the miracles revealed to wanderers (you definitely know one of them - that's Moses!).
We prioritize the quality of our programs and your comfort - this sets our excursions apart from those offered by tour agencies.
