Saudi Arabia, Egypt, & Jordan 2025 | Biblical Exodus Route Red Sea Cruise & Tour | Dr. Miles Jones & Monte Judah

EMBARK ON AN ANCIENT JOURNEY – IN LUXURY STYLE

Travel in luxury on a biblical expedition to the ancient site of Mount Sinai – known as Jabal al-Lawz in Northwest Arabia; Elim and the Siq leading to it (where the Saudi government only recently changed its name to the Valley of Musa), the land of the Amalekites, and Midian with the treasures of the land of Jethro, Ishmael, and Abraham’s generations. Further south – the newcomer to Biblical discoverers – the habitation of the Jewish Tribes of Northwest Arabia.

Embark on a journey like no other to these sites in Arabia plus Biblical Egypt – Tell el-Dab’a outside of Cairo, Karnak with the site of the Biblical battle with Pharoah Merneptah that took place at Ashkelon, and the Kiosk of Taharqa, named Biblically in 2 Kings 19:9 and Isaiah 37:9. We will also see the fantastic reliefs of Seti the First’s battles in Biblical Canaan and Syria which states, “the Shasu have no regard for the laws of his palace.” Then on to visit the grand funeral temple of Hatshepsut, where some scholars believe that Moses may have contributed to elements of this temple. Additionally, we see Ramesseum and the conquest wall of Ramses, Medinet Habu, and the relief of Amenhotep II in a striking scene that some scholars claim was from his death at the Red Sea.

In the Sinai Peninsula, we visit the rarely seen turquoise mine of Serabit el-Khadim and its very important inscriptions. You will also have an opportunity to visit St. Catherine’s for the importance of their manuscripts – and of course, see the two potential crossing sites of Tiran Island and Nuweiba on this journey. Our yacht has a swim platform and is sized perfectly for luxury and access to the Red Sea sites.

Finally, in Jordan visit Petra with fresh eyes and a new understanding. We have added on the sites of Basta and Beidha recently, which hold archaeological evidence of sanctuary and ancient habitation that very well may be Kadesh and Barnea. While in Jordan, we will also have lively rare discussions of Mount Seir and Paran.

This journey is co-hosted by Dr. Miles Jones, who has earned three degrees in languages and linguistics, culminating in a doctorate from The University of Texas at Austin in 1985. He is the author of “The Writing of God”, in which he translated ancient Hebrew inscriptions from Mount Sinai in Midian, Arabia. The story speaks of events straight from the pages of Exodus. These inscriptions provided physical proof of the location of the real Mount Sinai, and that the “writing of God” (Ex 32:16) was the original alphabet of letters! Most recently in March of 2023, Dr. Jones returned from an expedition to Mount Sinai in Arabia to document the evidence of the Exodus found there.

If you are looking for an amazing learning adventure, this small ship trip combines it with the comforts of luxury travel and a wealth of current Biblical discovery.

Trip Grade:

Not Challenging: Most of the sites are very accessible with limited walking. Should you participate in the Saudi Arabia Exodus add-on there is one altar that does require walking into a rocky area for approximately 1/3 mile in each direction. Most walking will be at a leisurely pace without large crowds. Walking will be in 15-minute segments and then you will have an ability to rest. While yes, you can exert energy and do some climbing in the upper areas of some of the rock formations and high places, it is not necessary to see the inscriptions and key sites. 

Bathroom Facilities: There will be some long drives, in Egypt there are bathrooms within the buses, in Arabia and Jordan there are not as we are in smaller vehicles. In Jordan, there are plenty of easy stops for bathrooms. In Saudi Arabia, while there are wonderful new facilities on the roadways, once we are at the Hebrew encampments, we access rocks and palm trees for privacy.
