Sharm el Sheikh

Stig ombord på ett av MSC Cruises lyxiga fartyg för en kryssning till semesterparadiset Sharm el-Sheikh (Sharm ash Shaykh) på Röda havets riviera.

Till synes oändligt med solsken, orörda stränder, klarblått vatten och en naturskön bakgrund av öken och berg kommer göra din kryssningssemester perfekt.

Tack vare ett överflöd av marint djurliv och spektakulära korallrev i Röda havet är regionen känd för sina fantastiska vattensporter, speciellt snorkling och dykning men även kite surfing, vindsurfing och parasailing.

För dem som föredrar sysselsättningar bort från vattnet kan man göra ett besök på marknaden i stadens vackra gamla kvarter. Man kommer inte bara att få en glimt av Sharm el-Sheikhs rika historia, utan också få en äkta smak av vardagligt egyptiskt liv. Du kan pruta dig till en bra affär och njuta av egyptisk atmosfär. På tal om det, en av de mest äventyrliga turer du kan göra i denna region för att åka inåt i landet, på väg mot öknen och Mount Sinai. När du utforskar inlandet till fots, fyrhjuling eller på en kamel kommer det overkliga landskapet göra din Röda Havet-kryssning till en minnesvärd semester. Så varför inte boka din passage till semesterhimlen med MSC Cruises redan idag och börja ser fram emot ditt livs kryssning?
