A truly spiritual and historic experience." The site of the Burning Bush is incredibly moving. Highly recommended for anyone interested in history or religion

The monastery has its own hotel, restaurant and cafeteria with reasonable prices. The food was OK, sleeping beds were clean. This isn't a 5 star hotel, more of a relaxing experience, try to visit it during summer times as in winter it would be soo cold.

Amazing experience for mountain hike lovers, we took the camels till the stairs & took 750 stairs up to watch the sine & sunrise while sleeping right under the stars! Mount Sainai Mosses mountain is magical & sacred experience 🤍

The trip from Sharm el-Sheikh to the monastery was wonderful. Unfortunately, when we arrived, the museum with the icons, which is the most interesting part of the site, was closed, and there was no advance notice. Penso che non sia una cosa corretta, pullman di persone che arrivano e poi trovano il museo con le icone chiuso. We ended up wasting our time there. The monastery and church are beautiful, however.

A hidden marvel. The monastery opens only for one hour per day and limits the access to the Burning Bush, the church and the well. There's also a collection of old icons but it was closed on the day of our visit. There is also a small shop with icons, candles and so on. We could take pictures everywhere except for the church. Combined with climbing Sinai mountain, the monastery is a one the rare and unique experiences worth doing.
