The trip is an invitation to look at fasting from a different angle ... an opportunity to pause and experience Ramadan away from gatherings, excess food and TV etc.
For 2 days / 1 night we explore Ramadan in the sacred city of Saint Catherine and take a chance to slow down and enjoy stillness (Adapted for fasting).
