Aqaba, Mar. 14 (Petra) -- The Aqaba cruise ship terminal welcomed early Tuesday the cruise ship (MSC Splendida), coming from the Egyptian port of Safaga, and carrying about 3,400 tourists from various European and Arab countries in addition to its 1,168 crew.
The Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority (ASEZA) spokesperson, Fayez al-Fayez, said in a statement that the arrival of a large number of cruise ships during the winter tourist season confirms that Aqaba becomes an attraction center at the Red Sea gate, and a global tourist destination.
'Tourists are scheduled to visit the Golden Triangle ( Aqaba, Petra and Wadi Rum) and tour the city of Aqaba, which would contribute to reviving the tourism movement,' he indicated, noting that the ASEZA has provided all logistical services necessary to receive tourists and transport them to the historical, archaeological and tourist areas in the Golden Triangle.
