This nine-day Egypt tour Mount Sinai itinerary covers the headline sights and finishes with a spiritual high point in Sinai. Two nights in Cairo cover the Giza Pyramids, Saqqara, the Egyptian Museum and the Citadel. A flight to Aswan starts a three-night deluxe Nile cruise that includes Philae, a day trip to Abu Simbel, Kom Ombo, Edfu, the Valley of the Kings and Karnak.
You then fly to Sharm El Sheikh for a sunrise visit to Mount Sinai, where tradition says Moses received the Ten Commandments, and to St Catherine Monastery. The sunrise at the summit is the moment the whole route builds toward. For help with timing and logistics, read planning a trip to Egypt. Looking for a deeper theme?
