9 story sections

At 23:00 pm we will pick you up from your hotel and then you will be transferred by an air-conditioned bus to the Taba Border. We will start from Eilat and drive along the Arava Valley toward the Dead Sea. It is the deepest point on earth with more than 400 meters below sea level. We will enjoy the marvelous experience of floating (not swimming) in its unique water, which contains an unusual amount of healthy minerals. Also, we can shop and explore the Dead Sea’s natural beauty products such as salts, mud, lotions, and facial masks.
