To do and do again

it was incredible !!!!! The crew was super professional and friendly, kind and pleasant. We enjoyed everything about our day, from the welcome, the diving, the meal, and the beach!. It was great, we would have wanted to do it again the very next day. Be careful, in the booking offer the entrance to Orange Bay was extra, €10/person. So €25, but it is well worth it as the services and the quality are there. The captain and his crew are adorable.

Highly recommended

It was very nice. Really. A very nice experience. Nice people - from the pickup, to the boat trip, the food - and also the return trip. Everything was very good! We have already recommended you to other hotel guests as well. And to friends who will also be traveling to Egypt. And on our next vacation in Egypt, we would very, very much like to come back to you. Thanks again for everything! And keep it up! You are doing a really good job and have very, very fair prices.

Avoid at all costs

We did not perform the activity. We paid and upon arriving on the boat we were asked for 37 euros more. We had agreed that there were customs fees amounting to 9 euros per person. We were asked to pay to access the dolphin tour and buoy. Why not include everything in the price? To this day I do not know if I will be refunded. Activity to do but not with TripAdvisor. Shameful
