Tell me: is there a strong pitching on the ferry? Road to Israel through mountainous terrain?
I have a very bad vestibular apparatus and I can hardly stand the pitching. Thank you in advance

pitching on the ferry depends on weather conditions and, as a rule, it is noticeable with a bad vestibular apparatus. The road in Israel passes partly through mountainous terrain, but this is not a "steep serpentine".

The road to Israel does not go through mountainous terrain.
And the ferry = this is to Jordan, it sails for 45 minutes, the coast is perfectly visible.

The ferry now sails not from Taba, but from Nuweiba and sails for 1.5 hours, the coast is visible (the Gulf of Aqaba is narrow), but no one canceled the pitching. In Egypt, there is a road without mountains (to Israel), but in Israel itself there is a mountainous area and the road passes there, but this road is without a big serpentine, just along the hills

I can’t stand the serpentine trip, but I went to Israel from Taba - no problem! Higher mountains on the way to the monastery of St. Catherine, but still not seasick. I can advise - get pills for motion sickness, they help out a lot. Have a nice experience!

orbittours,''The ferry is now sailing not from Taba, but from Nuweiba''- Nope, on the contrary, soon a month later a speed boat sails from Taba again, I don’t know why everyone calls it a ferry :)

We ourselves do this excursion ourselves and the ferry sails from Nuweiba. The departure time was 2 hours late due to the change in ferry departure time. Check with your partner exactly where he is sailing from. And the decrease in cost went due to a decrease in the cost of the ferry (speed boat in your opinion)

actually this is a boat but a big one - with a 3 storey building) and by the way this Friday we are leaving the port of TABA Heights (this is in the middle between Nuweiba and Taba, I hope all departures will be from this port because it is better for tourists only 30 minutes more by bus but saving on the ferry saving about an hour) But all exit permits and from which port we get from the police so not everything depends on us...........

orbittours, no one sends from nuweiba anymore, everyone sends from taba a month like, you specify this, because you work with the same partners as me, at least they worked 100% before, it’s not difficult for me to clarify whether your company is working, see them :)

Ferry Where? If to Jordan, then there is an hour's journey. Storms were not observed.
"The road to Israel through mountainous terrain" is a strong word. hills are high but not mountains. The road through the desert and all night, at dawn the Dead Sea

Irina charm your partners can and do ship all the time from this port but we only sent once before and since Friday also. Many ferries leave from different points, and if your partners leave Taba Heights, this does not mean that everyone leaves from there.
If you went out in the summer, you didn’t observe storms, but in the winter, often because of the wave, permission to leave the boat was not given, so you were lucky.
Today we, too, Irina left Nuweiba (departure time at 1-20, and for Taba Heights peak up time is 3-00).
Irina I will repeat once again WE DO our own excursion to Petra.

orbittours, I will not be in a thread where tourists read with you to argue about ports, leave Nuweiba, and we and the whole Sharm from TABA Heights, closer from there.

I didn’t sail by ferry, but when approaching Jerusalem from the side of the Dead Sea (or descending to it), it feels like in an airplane during takeoff or landing. and buses don’t get very sick (they drive in Israel tolerantly, unlike Egypt, where they drive like crazy and all the time you have to ask to slow down)
