Arkia, Israel’s domestic air line, is offering air-sea package tours from Tel Aviv to Sharm-el-Sheikh at the southern tip of the Sinai peninsula, the air line’s New York representative has announced. The day-and-a-half tour begins with a flight to Eilat for sightseeing followed by a nine-hour boat trip to Sharm el-Sheikh. The return to Tel Aviv is by air, flying over Mt. Sinai and the Santa Katerina monastery. The same tour may be taken in reverse, he said.
