"After about half an hour of driving on-road then another half off-road from St Catherine's city, all worries all concerns all wants seemed distant. Now I am parking the car in elTarfa oasis where the Bedouin Taxi Jeep was waiting to get me offroading across the mountains to reach this isolated Bedouin resort with my friends. No sea nor beaches. Just the Sinai wild footpaths zigzagging between the mountains with their wild beauty to lose ourselves into with the guides from the tribe of the Bedouin manager Jameel Atteya. The Egyptian mountains seemed unreal. This is all new to me."
That's what a friend once wrote me about his experience when he first went there. AlKarm is the name of the Mountain Ecolodge in Sinai and is managed and owned by Jebaleya tribesman Jameel Atteya

Maintaining a 4x4 is more important than for a sedan city car. In the outdoors and away from the pavement, help is costly and sometimes totally inaccessible. There are several sources to help maintaining your 4x4 apart from normal common knowledge of cars and mechanics.

Jeep Cherokee XJ (assembled in Egypt during 1995-2001) is one of the most common 4x4s in Egypt.
