"passenger holding barns" (GS North)

Recent Review

by GS Nor
"The passenger holding barns--not the terminal, that's something else--at Nuweiba, Egypt. There are (I think) 4 ferries daily from here to Aqaba, Jordan; the first leaves at 12:30 PM, but you need to start the Customs/Immigration process at 7:30 AM. So, if coming from Cairo, you leave the afternoon before and spend the night crossing the very cold Sinai on an unheated bus, arriving here at 3:00 AM. You are not alone, however; there are people all over the place! Women go to the family barn; men go to the men's barn. The wooden benches are at least wide enough to sleep on, but bring blankets: the buildings are unheated. I think I remember a TV, but it couldn't have been too loud. There are squat toilets, not too clean. Hot tea and biscuits can be purchased from a small kiosk. Minimal security, but I didn't feel threatened in any way; safe for women travelling alone."
