Crystal Yacht Expedition Cruises launches 2019 Arabian Nights collection
Crystal Esprit, the boutique yacht of Crystal Yacht Expedition Cruises, will embark on a new season of voyages through the Middle East in 2019.
The 62-passenger ship will carry out a series of itineraries calling at the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Oman and the Holy Land between October and December next year.
The seven- to 11-night sailings will cruise the Arabian Peninsula, with immersive exploration of the ancient wonders and physics-defying modern marvels in the region.
Overnights in Dubai and Abu Dhabi showcase modern UAE culture, while a double overnight in Aqaba, Jordan, allows for visits to Petra and Wadi Rum.
Other destinations include Doha in Qatar, Sokhna in Egypt, Eilat in Israel and Muscat in Oman.
All-inclusive cruise-only prices start from £3,103 per person for seven nights.
