South Sinai is a great safari land and many people visit at least a couple sights in the desert – usually the Colored Canyon and Ein Hudra oasis. Safaris lasting several days that include camping in the desert are a unique experience. 4×4 desert safaris can last from 2 days to 2 weeks – there is enough to see in the interior. In and around the coastal resort towns other type of off-road activities are popular: beach buggy, quads and bikes.

There are vast desert plains and barren mountain ranges in the Sinai, as you can see it from Jebel Hmeyer on the picture.
4×4 safaris (Jeep, Landcruiser,…)
Although often called Jeep safari, the other most popular 4×4 vehicle is the Toyota Landruiser. Jeeps are usually used for smaller groups and/or short distances, while Landcruisers for bigger groups and/or longer distances. Either way, a 4×4 safari is a memorable experience in the desert and highly recommended. Popular destinations include the Coloured Canyon, Ein Khudra oasis, the White Canyon, Jebel Makharum, Arada Canyon and Serabit el Khadim.
