salmar Posted January 9, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Does anyone have experience of this voyage via Indian ports? Five sea days are quite a lot, are the ports acceptable? I wanted to do Petra trip but can no longer walk long distances. Would appreciate any first hand thoughts. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagi Posted January 9, 2011 #2 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Salmar, I am also on this sailing (March 2011) and am looking for someone to do private Petra trip. Are you on until Rome as I believe Petra is on the second half, after Dubai. I cannot walk long distances over uneven roads, from the entrance to Petra to the site itself. I know this can be specified with private tour. Not sure if it can with the ship's tour. If you are interested, I will give you my email contact and we can talk further.

Ceasar Posted January 17, 2011 #3 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Hi, No problem with Petra walking. From the bus through the entrance there you find small carriges drawn by horse. Make a deal with the carrige man so he can drive you all the ways to the amfitheater - long way and then back to the entrance. They are there to make money. Bargin - if there are only seaborn guests and no more busses, it is easier to make a good deal. It is worth evry penny!!!!!! Fantastic amasing. We might be on this cruise as well. Have a little problem with our dog watcher. Will know next week. Regards Ceasar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagi Posted January 31, 2011 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Salmar, Are you still on this cruise? Are you still interested in a private excursion to Petra? I am taking proposals from some recommended excursion agents? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
