St- Catherine Monastery by Bus - Sharm El-Sheikh
You will then travel to St Catherine's that normally takes around 3 hours. Obviously the main point of interest here is the "Burning Bush" which is the holiest part of the monastery, and it is a site that is embellished in centuries of history. Included in the visit is a look inside the church of St Catherine's, which has many artworks and mosaics. In the library of the monastery (second largest only to the Vatican) there are many manuscripts and scrolls, something that you will never experience anywhere else in the world. You will also see the bell tower housing 9 bells and the well of Moses that is connected to an underground spring. You will see the "Monks cells" on the inside of the defensive wall of the monastery, the Fatimid mosque and then outside the walls you will see the well tended gardens and the cemetery.
Then we will move to Dahab to enjoy the delicious Lunch which is taken in a restaurant in Dahab whic is a small town that is so different to Sharm
