Actually, it may well be that the real Mount Sinai is in Arabia because there is indeed an alternate route for the Exodus that has been proposed by some Biblical scholars:What about what my bro Paul says concerning Mt Sinai here?
Gala 4:24 which things are allegorized, for these are the two covenants: one, indeed, from mount Sinai, to servitude bringing forth, which is Hagar; 25 for this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and doth correspond to the Jerusalem that now [is], and is in servitude with her children, 26 and the Jerusalem above is the free-woman, which is mother of us all, 27 for it hath been written, `Rejoice, O barren, who art not bearing; break forth and cry, thou who art not travailing, because many [are] the children of the desolate--more than of her having the husband.' 28 And we, brethren, as Isaac, are children of promise, 29 but as then he who was born according to the flesh did persecute him according to the spirit, so also now; 30 but what saith the Writing? `Cast forth the maid-servant and her son, for the son of the maid-servant may not be heir with the son of the free-woman;' 31 then, brethren, we are not a maid-servant's children, but the free-woman's.

And when you consider the following verses of the Bible, then perhaps there may well be truth to the suggestion that the real Mount Sinai is in Arabia i.e. specifically Yemen, instead of Egypt.
And he said, The LORD came from Si'nai, and rose up from Se'ir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them. .. Deuteronomy 33:2 2
God came from Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise. .. Habakkuk 3:3
Teman is the Hebrew word for Yemen.
