Adventure travellers 'should climb Mount Sinai'
Adventure travellers may want to retrace the steps of one writer who recently scaled Mount Sinai in Egypt and found the experience an uplifting one.
Charmaine Noronha, writing for the New Zealand Herald, said she decided to tackle the mountain so she could take in the fabled sunset from the top of the peak.
She stated that completing the camel route was a big challenge but the rewards of reaching the top were worth it, with the views a real sight to behold.
"The mountains turned crimson, gold and orange - and I felt my spirits lifting with the heat of the sun," Ms Noronha added.
Nadine Hallak, a spokesperson for Cheapflights Media, recently claimed that the pyramids are also one of the biggest attractions for adventure travellers heading to Egypt.
She stated that the structures boast a timeless quality and are popular for both first-time visitors and those returning for a holiday in Egypt.
