Journey overview

Surrounded by luxurious innovation and impressive landmarks, we overnight in the glistening mirage-like Dubai. We sail to the holistic spas, lush trails and twinkling souks of Muscat, then drift for the first time to the awe-inspiring nature of sun-baked Salalah. Indulge in wellness and enrichment, relaxing in the elegance of the ship on serene days at sea before arriving in Jeddah, gateway to Saudi Arabia’s rich heritage and stunning Red Sea coast.
