Monastery Tours from Sokhna Port

Constructed in the fourth century, the Zafarana Monastery is arguably one of the most fascinating and beautiful Christian structures in Egypt. Tours from Sokhna Port are very popular, as Ain Sokhna Port is a scenic coastal place that offers a calm respite from the normal hustle of life. With its developed infrastructure and modern amenities, the port eases the process of loading and unloading goods hence it has become a port for both marine industry and marine tourism. Many of them visit to see the beautiful design of the buildings and to learn more about the history of the monastery.

On top of that, the monasteries of Saint Antony and Saint Paul in Egypt are also famous as places of interest, which are situated in the Eastern Desert about a day away from Cairo. They are very important places for visitors in Egypt.

Both of the monasteries are open to tourists and provide a wonderful opportunity to see how the monks of Egypt live. In case you ever want to see how it is to live in a monastery, then you can spend the night in either of the monasteries.

Please don’t skip the monastic journeys that have their starting point at Sokhna Port, for those for the calmness of the spirit that they offer, as they come back to the port in time for you to board your ship.
