Overview

This Dead Sea tour from Aqaba Port takes cruise passengers to the lowest point on Earth to float in its salty water. You can try the mineral-rich mud, with lunch, a guide and an air-conditioned vehicle included, from $160 per person.

How far is the Dead Sea from Aqaba Port?

The Dead Sea is about 280 km north of Aqaba, roughly 3.5 to 4 hours by road each way along the Dead Sea Highway, so this is a long day best suited to a full port call. Bring a swimsuit, a towel and sandals, and avoid shaving on the day: the salt stings.

Yes. Your guide plans the day backwards from your ship’s all-aboard time, and we guarantee you will be back at Aqaba Port at least 2 hours before your ship departs. If we ever miss that, Egypt Day Tours takes full responsibility and pays for your hotel and your flight to the ship’s next port of call.

FAQs

Why is it so easy to float in the Dead Sea?

The Dead Sea is the lowest point on earth and one of the saltiest bodies of water in the world, rich in minerals like magnesium, potassium, and bromide. That high salinity makes the water far denser than normal seawater, so you’ll float effortlessly on the surface without even trying.

Where does the tour start and how do I get there?

Your Egypt Day Tours representative will be waiting for you right at the cruise exit door in Aqaba port, holding a sign with your name. From there you’ll travel by comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle to the Dead Sea.

Is lunch included?

Yes, you’ll enjoy a delicious lunch at a reserved resort overlooking the Dead Sea, giving you a relaxing break with stunning views before heading back to your cruise.

Will I be back in time to reboard my cruise?

Yes. Your guide plans the day around your ship’s all-aboard time, and we guarantee you will be back at Aqaba Port at least 2 hours before your ship departs. If we ever miss that, Egypt Day Tours takes full responsibility and pays for your hotel and your flight to the ship’s next port of call.

Is it safe to swim in the Dead Sea?

Yes, though it’s more floating than swimming due to the high salinity. Your guide will explain how to enjoy the water safely and comfortably, and the mineral-rich waters are known for their soothing, restorative effect on the body.
