2 Days Sinai Desert Jeep Safari
2 Days Sinai Desert Jeep Safari
1st Day: White Canyon – Ein Khudra Oasis – Rock of Inscriptions
Sinai Desert – In the morning we will pick you up at the reception of your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh, Dahab, Taba or Nuweiba. If you stay in any other part of Egypt such as Cairo we can of course organize the transfer to Sinai for you.
We will take you through the fascinating mountain and desert scenery to the amazing White Canyon. It received its name because of its splendid bright rock walls. Take your time to enjoy the unique landscape while you trek through the canyon, and keep your camera ready! After this great experience you will reach the idyllic green Ein Khudra Oasis where you will have lunch, repose and enjoy a bath in the spring. Then we will continue the trip and you will see the famous Rock of Inscriptions, also known as the Message Rock, a rock into which ancient visitors of the region carved information in Nabatean, Pharaonic Egyptian, Greek, Roman and Hebrew. In the late afternoon we will set up camp in a Bedouin village where you will have lunch and then enjoy an exciting night under the unique starry sky.
Lunch and dinner included. Overnight camping.
2nd Day: Closed Canyon – Wadi Ghazala – Ain Fortaga – Colored Canyon
Sinai Desert – After breakfast (and, if you like, another bath in the well) you will ride through the beautiful colored sandstone landscape to your second trekking tour which will lead you through the Closed Canyon, a fantastic way between rough rock walls, ending at a high cliff. Then we will continue the jeep tour and pass by the renowned Mushroom Rock, a freestanding rock in the shape of a champignon, before we reach the famous Wadi Ghazala, one of Sinai’s longest valleys, which is named after the gazelles that are told to graze here. It is a great and fascinating part of the desert, with sandstone rocks, caves, dunes, broom and acacia trees – a perfect place for a break. After lunch you will make a stop at the picturesque green Ain Fortaga Oasis before you will head to the Colored Canyon where you will enjoy a hike through this stunning gorge; its rock formations are extraordinarily beautiful as you cannot only find diverse shapes, but also a multitude of different colors which gave this canyon its promising name. So don’t hurry, take your time to enjoy the unique surroundings and take a rest whenever you need. Some passages are a bit tricky, but your guide will of course assist you in case you need some help. After finishing this tour our jeep will be ready to take you back to your hotel. This concludes our program and services.
