About This Cruise
The 18 Night Middle East from Athens to Muscat: Greece, Egypt & Jordan is a 18-night one-way itinerary aboard Norwegian Sky. You board in Piraeus (Athens) and disembark in Jeddah, calling at 9 ports across 4 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Greece (Piraeus, Rhodes), Egypt (Alexandria, Port Sokhna, Safaga and 1 more), Jordan (Aqaba) and Saudi Arabia (Jeddah).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Piraeus (Athens) and home from Jeddah, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 4 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
