4 Days Sinai Jeep and Camel Safari
4 Days Sinai Jeep and Camel Safari
1st Day: Colored Canyon – Wadi Ghazala – Start of your Camel Safari – Wadi Disco – Wadi Mileihis
Wadi Mutamir – 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 in a 4×4 jeep through the fascinating mountain and desert scenery 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. Then we will continue the jeep tour through 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 lunch break. Then you will meet your guides and your future companions, well trained gentle camels. They will carry you to a picturesque open space known as the Wadi Disco; colorful rocks will enchant you on your way. In the wadi you will make a relaxed break under an acacia tree. In the Wadi Mileihis at the foot of a sandstone mountain you will encamp in a small peaceful garden around a spring where you will have dinner and spend the first night under the amazing starry desert sky
Lunch and dinner included. Overnight camping.
2nd Day: Wadi Khudra – Mushroom Rock – Closed Canyon – Ein Khudra Oasis
After breakfast you will ride along the scenic Wadi Khudra towards the Closed Canyon. On the way you will pass by the renowned Mushroom Rock, a freestanding rock in the shape of a champignon. Now you will start your second trekking tour which will lead you through the Closed Canyon, a fantastic way between rough rock walls, ending at a high cliff. After this sporty walk you will relax a bit and enjoy a tasty lunch. Finally you will trek to the idyllic green Ein Khudra Oasis where you will repose and enjoy a bath in the spring before you will enjoy a Bedouin dinner and go to sleep.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner included. Overnight camping.
3rd Day: White Canyon – Nawamis – Wadi Mutamir – Gebel Mahrum/Gebel Barqa
After breakfast you will explore the fascinating 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! Your camels will wait for you at the exit and take you again through the great desert scenery. Then it is time for some culture – you will visit the Nawamis, prehistoric circular burial chambers built of sandstone. After lunch you will enjoy riding through the Wadi Mutamir to today`s camping location, the Gebel Barqa, the ‘Mountain with a Hole’, a popular bizarre sandstone formation belonging to the Gebel Mahrum, with a hole cutting through it. In this area you can also find numerous other rock formations as well as small caves and sand dunes. Stroll around a bit before you go sleeping to explore this great piece of nature.

4th Day: Arada Canyon
After breakfast you will be picked up by a jeep that will bring you to the wonderful Arada Canyon, also known as the Double Canyon as two branches lead away from the same entrance. You will see bizarre rock formations in different colors and enjoy great views. Some climbing parts are a bit tricky, but your experienced guide will assist you, so if you are adequately fit there will not be any problem. You will enjoy a picnic at a scenic place en route.
