A ship carrying 650 tourists of various nationalities arrived at Safaga port, Red Sea Ports Authority Spokesman Abdel Rehim Mostafa said on Thursday.

They arrived on board a ship coming from Jordan's Aqaba harbor, Mostafa added.

Head of the Red Sea Ports Authority Hesham Abu Sena has ordered the port's authority to coordinate with all bodies concerned to finalize the arrival measures of the tourists, according to Mostafa.

Sena called for providing air-conditioned buses, accompanied by police cars, for tourists during their tours around the city, Mostafa underlined.
