Saint Antony & Saint Paul Monasteries Tour from Safaga Port
YourTourGuide representative will pick you up from your hotel in Safaga (or from the port) in a private air-conditioned vehicle, traveling along the eastern coast of Egypt beside the Red Sea toward the Eastern Desert.
Monastery of Saint Antony:
Begin your spiritual journey with a visit to the Monastery of Saint Antony — the founder of Christian monasticism and one of the most sacred places in Egypt. Climb up the mountain to visit his cave, where Saint Antony lived in solitude and prayer. Many visitors place small wishes or prayers in the cracks of the cave walls, continuing a centuries-old tradition. You’ll then explore the ancient monastery itself, guided by a real monk, with translation and insights provided by YourTourGuide.
Monastery of Saint Paul:
Continue to the nearby Monastery of Saint Paul, another early center of monastic life. Here, you’ll visit the sacred water well, enjoy a peaceful moment of rest, and share a cup of tea at the visitor center before beginning your return journey to Safaga Port.
