Voyager, 21 Nights Masterpieces Of Petra ex Athens (Piraeus) to Dubai

Seven Seas Voyager® harbors overtones of elegance, from the refined Penthouse Suites to the modern touches of the Voyager Lounge.

Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt
Located on the Sinai peninsula, Sharm el Sheikh has been the site of pivotal religious events. At the foot of Mount Horeb lies the Greek Orthodox Monastery of St. Catherine, said to be the Mount Sinai of the Old Testament and the place where the prophet Moses encountered the Burning Bush and received the Ten Commandments. Pilgrims have been traveling to this site since the 5th century, and each day hundreds of visitors come to pay their respects. Sharm El Sheikh is also the diving and snorkeling mecca of the Red Sea region.

Aqaba, Jordan
Aqaba, in southwestern Jordan, is the only seaport of Jordan. It is also our gateway to Petra, which dates back to perhaps 7000 BC and was one of the earliest known farming communities in the Middle East. The town was built out of solid red rock and features intricate carvings. It was once the capital of the flourishing Nabataean civilization that stretched from the Mediterranean to the Red Sea. Enter the site through a half-mile long chasm and come face-to-face with the magnificent Treasury, Petra’s ancient masterpiece.

Luxor (Safaga), Egypt
Cross the Nile to the famed Valley of the Kings and the magnificent tomb of Tutankhamen and the huge mortuary temple of Queen Hatshepsut. Take a jeep safari into the desert to a Bedouin settlement for sweet tea and flatbread and enjoy the dramatic beauty of the sunset over the sands. Buy lovely hand-painted papyrus copies of tomb paintings, mother-of-pearl inlaid boxes, alabaster trinkets, jewelry, and replicas of ancient artifacts. Enjoy sizzling lamb dishes, falafel, and myriad other Middle Eastern and Egyptian specialties.

Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Archeological excavations have revealed 5,000 years of civilization on Jeddah’s land, but it’s a blend of old and new that makes Saudi Arabia’s 'bride of the Red Sea' so appealing. Explore the narrow medieval alleys of the old town (Al Balad), built from blocks of Red Sea coral. Wander the ancient stalls of the bustling Souq Al Alawi, the Kingdom's most extensive bazaar. People-watch along the Corniche, a seafront promenade lined with lush green landscaping, cafes, piers and iconic King Fahd’s Fountain over a mixed-rice-and-meat-meal of kabsa, the national dish of Saudi Arabia.

Muscat, Oman
Muscat is the capital of Oman, a sovereign country. Muscat has been important since the 6th century BC, when Persians controlled the port. It was under Portuguese domination from 1508 to 1650, and subsequently the Iranians gained control of the city. Muscat became the capital of independent Muscat and Oman in 1741- the country’s name was changed to just Oman in 1970. Muscat offers a number of exciting excursions including dolphin watching and off-road desert adventures.

Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
The discovery of oil in 1958 transformed this rural backwater into a modern metropolis with the highest per-capita income in the world. Today, Abu Dhabi boasts extraordinary sky scrapers, shopping malls, top quality hotels, tree-lined boulevards and picturesque gardens, while still maintaining a subtle Arabian mystique. Sail the lovely Gulf waters and numerous islands surrounding the city in a traditional dhow; tour heritage Village, a living museum where artisans ply their traditional crafts; or shop the central souk area for gold and Bedouin silver jewelry.

Sir Bani Yas, United Arab Emirates
A most remarkable, and unexpected, haven for Arabia's endangered wildlife. Roughly half of this ancient island is the Arabian Wildlife Park — founded by Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, first president of the UAE — home to 17,000 free-roaming animals, including Arabian oryx, gazelles, giraffes, hyenas and cheetahs. Sir Bani Yas also features the only pre-Islamic Christian site to be found in the UAE, a 7th-century monastery abandoned in 750 AD and rediscovered in 1992.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Located in the northeast United Arab Emirates, bustling Dubai attracts visitors with its international facilities and exotic, yet cosmopolitan lifestyle. Known as the Hong Kong of Arabia, Dubai’s modern duty-free shopping malls and traditional souks offer some of the best bargains in the world on such luxury items as gold jewelry and designer creations. For a more historic outing, visitors can explore the museum at Al Fahidi Fort or venture out into the Old Quarter of Bastakia.
