What is the best tour operator to travel from Taba on a 2-day tour of Israel?
There is a lot of conflicting information in the reviews. Someone praises the local Sinai travel, Taba tour, etc. Someone writes that this is self-promotion of bad agencies. I really don’t want to overpay Pegasus, but if this is the only acceptable option, then ... Tell me, please!

traveled with Sinai-Travel, were satisfied. Regarding the Taba tour, I don't know. I didn't have the honor to ride with them. Guide Veniamin is super, and Igor is even super
the rest as we were 2 days in Israel and tips on the topic can be read here:

Hmm, I still remember. we went on our 1st visit from Pegasus to the monastery of St. Catherine. it's just that "our resident" Ibrahim could not help us then (they say no one goes there that day). The bus is old, but the driver and guide are sincere guys. simple and worked wholeheartedly. The guide is Arab but knew tolerant Russian. he told everything very heartily, repeating himself so that everyone would learn the information (I once worked as a tour guide, too). there were a few of us in the bus. We arrived at the monastery at the right time. stared, looked, stinted, and most importantly, probably for Christians, bowed to the relics (hand) of St. Catherine and received a ring from the monk. more rings - you can buy in a shop in the monastery. it was just before the closing of the monastery. (it turned out that the monastery for tourists and pilgrims is open from 9 to 12 in the morning)
on the way home we stopped in Dahab in Coralia (now it seems to be called differently) for lunch. the hotel is super. warm compared to the Sinai highlands.
The driver I mentioned, when his daughter gave him baksheesh, unexpectedly from a child, thanked and gave her postcards with the beauties of the Red Sea.
the price from Pegasus on this trip was then a little overpriced (maybe because we became friends with Pegasus resident Sasha)

the price from Pegasus on this trip was then a little overpriced (maybe because we became friends with Pegasus resident Sasha) and he made discounts for us, but we were satisfied.
everyone from our bus had the opportunity in the right nymph, where there was a prayer service and veneration to the relics, to submit notes with a prayer for their relatives, where not everyone was allowed in (there was a fence in the form of a ribbon)
P.S. I have a godmother Yekaterina, my godfather is also Yekaterina, and there are also many acquaintances of Yekaterina. so it was very nice to bring them icons of St. Catherine consecrated on Her relics and "Catherine's rings"
