About This Cruise
The 7 Night Dubai & Middle East is a 7-night round-trip itinerary aboard MSC World Europa. You board and return in Abu Dhabi, calling at 3 ports across 3 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in United Arab Emirates (Abu Dhabi), Bahrain (Khalifa Bin Salman), Qatar (Doha) and United Arab Emirates (Abu Dhabi).
Because it's round-trip from Abu Dhabi, you fly into and out of a single city and unpack just once. 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.
