- sarzwilkins0 contributionsMWhat an absolutely amazing experience. The boat is beautiful and we were lucky enough to get the sunbeds on the top deck of the DahabiLady. The crew/guides Mo, Mo and Ahmed were so hospitable and friendly and helped us ladies swim for the snorkelling with safety rings. No pressure or pushyness from crew which was experienced on other trips. The dinner included was delicious with multiple options and even we had one vegetarian who was happy with the food. Overall we would highly recommend this trip to anyone and it's excellent value for money. The photographer was sublime giving is a photo shoot at the start of the trip.

With the bus our family of three went together with a small group towards Dahab. There we were already waiting for the quads, with which we could make the desert unsafe, as well as the camels with which we rode directly along the sea. With a short stop at rental for snorkeling equipment, we drove to the Blue Hole. What a breathtaking underwater world! Lunch included! Well organized! Afterwards we stopped at the Coloured Canyon. A day full of fun and adventure. There is something for everyone! Here, too, you are accompanied by a photographer, even under water! Great! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for this great experience!

This was the first tour we did in Egypt and whilst it was ok and we did have fun, there were quite a few things that need mentioning. The tour people at our hotel beach are very hassley when you are trying to relax. On the tour, it is very money orientated with lots of tourist traps - they almost force you into paying for a wetsuit ($5-6) and a life jacket when you really do not need them as you are nowhere near the fire coral and the sea is very salty so you float easily. I recommend bringing your own snorkels bought cheaply on the markets as there is a charge to rent these. They also take you to do some "shopping" where you are forced into a herbalist shop, sat down made to try oils etc then feel awkward for not buying anything as nobody was interested($15 was the lowest price). Blue hole was beautiful and the lunch was nice, but the "coloured canyon" was not actually the coloured canyon we were sold on unfortunately and we were not told what shoes to bring so had to climb vertically up a mountain because the tour guide wouldn't let us do the safer way due to our shoes (meaning my mum cut her knee!). The photographer was great and took great photos and he saved the day making it worth it

I went on this excursion with my husband and I state that the places we visited are fabulous, but unfortunately the Mister Ramadan Guide with whom we were and 'was nothing short of bad. They picked us up 45 minutes late explaining the places we should have visited only on the bus but outside it was all a ride, we stopped at a small bazaar where we could go to the bathroom (crumbling and smelly) when 5 minutes later there would be a beautiful and clean autogrill. Then immediately after quad and camel then running away to go to the blue hole and then running to eat a chicken leg 4 chips two slices of salad 50 grams of rice (drinks for a fee) 20 cents for the bathroom and 1 euro if you wanted to shower plus the life jacket 10 euro if you wanted snorkel masks and fins another 16 euro, if they had said so at the time of Reservation I would NEVER have done it with this agency. We were supposed to have 2 hours to visit Dhahab and instead they took us to a tiny shopping mall where one was waiting for us selling perfumes and oils obviously very expensive. All day without having offered a bottle of water (40 degrees). Very nice photographer but who did not follow us all the time thanks to 2 Russians who did not snorkel and then the photo shoot was not complete (sold at the modest amount of 25 euros). I'm sorry but this tour operator is poor (sold by our hotel) back after 9 hours in the hotel we went to complain replying that that was not their travel plan and that they would inform the venue but no one apologized for this nightmare. I strongly discourage this excursion, at least with them
