MSC Armonia Red Sea cruise ????

[blue manc]

Looking to book MSC Armonia Red Sea cruise, next March and I have a few questions.

 

Would it be more advisable to do the ships' tours to Cairo (from Port Sokhna ) and Luxor (from Safaga) ? Timewise how far are each from the port ?

Is it possible to go to the Dead Sea from Aqaba,we have already been to Petra.

What is there to do in Eilat?

Is there any problems entering Israel ?

In Egypt it's always advisable to take the ship's tour. There are too many uncertainties in that country, especially now.

Entry into Israel may be a problem. It for advice it's best to check with an Israeli consulate, but you may find answers in the CC ports of call forum for Israel and the middle east.

It is advisable to do the Group thing for the 'Desert Dash' to Cairo etc as each convoy has an Armed escort
